Videos from Last Night's SYTYCD: 2 Nappyabs hip hop routines, Tally (Strikers) helps teach stepping

So You Think You Can Dance seems to be showing more hip hop than usual this season, possibly because three of their All-stars are hip hop specialists. On the July 21 show, Napoleon and Tabitha D'umo choreographed a hip Western showdown for Twitch and Lauren, as well as a lyrical hip hop piece for Adechike and Comfort. Also, Kent Boyd and Twitch did a stepping routine; Tallie Brinson of Strikers Allstars (America's Best Dance Crew Season 3) assisted choreographer Chuck Maldonado with the routine -- click here for this performance that unfortunately shows only a second of Tallie in the audience. Videos from Rickey.org.

Let's help Kid Bowser win the Step up 3D contest for $$ and a trip!

BloggingBestDanceCrew reader Kid Bowser is a finalist for the BFABB contest for Step Up 3D, under the name Esosa.  He's one of the top 8 and he needs to make it to the top 2 to go to the world premiere in LA for the movie and a chance to battle the other finalist on 106 and Park for $2000.

Let's help him out. Click on this link to the contest site on Facebook, go to the "BFABB Contest (Esosa)" and vote for him. You can vote up to 20 times by refreshing the page, and clicking on a submission and pressing "Vote." But, please don't refresh and vote over 20 times, or else they might throw out your votes!  

(By the way, Kid Bowser was too modest to send this to BBDC and ask for help from our readers -- all the more reason we should throw lots of votes to him!
