It runs over 4 days, with workshops, battles, and finals happening throughout the weekend, ending with the world finals on May 24.
Once upon a time, during an incredible conversation, @yipsilon and @djjustakid exchanged powerful thoughts and ideas and Yalda captured it perfectly.
It’s a reminder that behind every visible success, there are so many people working quietly behind the scenes, making it all possible for others to shine.
Let’s keep educating, evolving, empowering, having fun and most importantly, spreading love ❤️ (+1)
Whatever you do, strive to make it better.
That’s the true essence of a growth mindset.
Full circle moments. Lifestyle has its own rhythm.
Grateful for the connection, the exchange, and the energy.
No rush. Just align, and move respectfully.

Another Hidden Gem pulled through and shared a few words with us… this time from a DJ’s point of view. And if you ask us, that’s a pretty important perspective. @kam_dsp@overflowtv OverFlow Jam 5

Last year at OverFlow Jam, one of the freshest bands absolutely brought that pure energy. A collab. between live musicians and dancers that truly set the moment.
This year, @alpacascollective is coming back 🔥 and they’ve even dropped a OverFlow Collab. LP since then. You can check it all out on @overflowtv
Here’s what one of the members had to say after the jam. Pure authenticity.

A message to the youth chasing dreams and living fast, especially those thinking of quitting school to get ahead.
I used to believe leaving school would help me move faster. In reality, it slowed me down later on. I wish I had listened more to the voices around me that told me to be patient and do the right thing.
Today, I find myself without a university degree or bachelor’s. I quit after my second year because I felt I was already doing what I was studying and believed the paper would not mean much in the future. Truth is, it does. Sometimes it means access, credibility, or simply a few more bucks in your bank account.
I do not regret my journey. The day I quit school, I started my journey and have been holding it down since. I am proud of what I have built. But the moral is not to rush life. That paper is a form of security.
I have faced frustrating moments being more than qualified but not fitting the criteria because I did not own that degree. I dropped out of Event and Project Management, yet I have worked on more events than many who hold that paper.
It took hard work and still does. I am at peace with my choices, but my advice to the youth is simple. Secure the degree, then go do whatever you want with your life.
Much love,
Nothing to add.
If I tagged you, it means you were present. If you attended one of the editions, feel free to share any thoughts or ideas about the format here. We’ll be back with the 3rd edition this year, @thenotoriousibe , and your input is valuable. I truly appreciate and respect your presence at the two previous editions. ♾️💨
