Pacman aka Phillip Chbeeb

Pacman aka Phillip Chbeeb is a member of IaMmE Crew who won America's Best Dance Crew Season 6. He also participated in So you think you can dance - Season 5. He's not necessarily my favorite dancer but he certainly has talent. The following video (once more by Shawn Welling from Planet Funk Dance Studios) is genious - it shows dance as an art. There are a lot hip hop dancers complaining about commercial New Style but they forget that it's commerce that allow dancers to raise their salaries. The more famous the more money. It's that simple.

Quest Crew

Quest Crew is a hip hop dancecrew from California (once again California coz that's the mekka of all dancers). They won ABDC Season 3 with a mix of entertainment, musicality, tricks and incredible dance abilities... Not only have they won over America but also Asia, Australia and Europe. They worked with Usher, Far East Movement and had appearances in all the major shows and events (Ellen, Teen Choice Awards, ABDC, SYTYCD, Dancing with the Stars, Emmy Awards, NBA All-Star Game, Disney, ...). It's an incredibly long list, I can tell you.

They have worked with LMFAO lately - making the choreography to "Party Rock Anthem" and "Champagne Showers" and touring with the artists.

Hok, Ryan and D-Trix also participated in SYTYCD prooving they can be more than only b-boys. But more of that in another post...

Jabbawockeez

The Jabbawockeez are an all-male hip hop dancecrew from California, founded in 2003. They are the first dancecrew that has ever won America's Best Dance Crew. Not only made they history in 2008, with ABDC on national television they changed the dimension of the dance community. There is so much more awareness for dance as a form of art and entertainment now - thanks to ABDC. The Jabbawockeez also have a show in Las Vegas at the Monte Carlo Hotel and Casino.

The white masks are their signature accessory, chosen because one of their members (Gary Kendell) died and by the audience not being able to distinguish between the dancers, they felt his presence on stage. They have their own distinctive style of hip hop dance, great robotic isolations and entertainment. If I were to go to Las Vegas, I would definitely watch their show.

Kaba Modern

Kaba Modern is an American hip hop dancecrew from the University of California, Irvine. They were founded in 1992. I have known them from the first season of America's Best Dance Crew in 2008 (Top 3). They are so inspiring to me as a dancer. The following video is from the live auditions of ABDC.
