Battle of the year Nigeria is one of the biggest and tightest dance event i've seen in recent times.
I was dere myself, wasn't told.
its great 2 know dat my Nigerians could embark on such a journey to break dancing and staunts.
Looking forward 2 the West African finals and seeing the Nigerian winner (All Stars Crew) to the Finals in Germany.

This is quite interesting to know, though i did not see them at BOTY 2008 as i was there also, what happend,? I guess they didnt qualify as the compitition is very tough.
Am a Nigerian-ITalian b.boy(0371 crew ITALY) Am a proffessional dancer and have danced for artists in concerts all over europe and a have been a dance judge for hip-hop and breakdance all over europe, but i now live in london. We got to the italian BOTY finals but were beaten by another crew to rep. italy in Germany. I was personally working on a project to bring back breakdance (old school and new school- styling , footworking and powermoves<aka stunts in Nigeria> to nigeria. I know that things are quite different in the way they are handled, so projects like mine would be very difficult to be assisted. All am looking for is to link the organizers of dancing compititions in Nigeria so i could contribute to making it even bigger. Please contact me on robinsubi@gmail.com for more infor.
Thanks to all that could give any infor.
