Q&A

Your profession:
Student: studying sound engineering/ music production

Your dance history/experience:
I did freestyle for 8 years, I have 3 more exams to go until I can do my teachers diploma. I started Hip-Hop 3 years ago and I’m now in a crew.

I competed in the world championships in L.A with a team and I have also danced with Shane Sparks from the American SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE- when he came to S.A to do a workshop last year - he said if I go to America I must let him know he “would love to work with me.” I’m planning on going in December.

Your favourite dance genre:
Hip-Hop and dancehall

What will you do with the R250 000 if you win?
Pay my parents back for all the times I said “I swear I’ll pay you back”!

What will you bring to the competition that is different?
My hip-hop is extremely “street”. It’s not something most people recognize so would really love to bring out some dance hall and just pure street dance!

10. What’s your message for your soon to be fans?

Ah man, guys I’m going to try my best to entertain you as much as possible to keep you entertained and please vote for me!
“Sing what’s in your heart and dance what’s in your soul”
