BACKGROUND: World renowned Breakdancer Raymond “Nasty Ray” Mora presents the second installment of the highly acclaimed breakdance competition INFAMOUS. Mora, who has been featured in movies (Step Up 3D), on television (Dancing with the Stars), and has toured with Justin Beiber, says he expects this competition to be even larger. The first Infamous held in Feb 2012 brought out some breakdancing world’s biggest names including B Boy Machine (Step up 3D, Glee, So you think you can dance).
After being dismissed as fad in the late eighties the Hip Hop dance form known as Breakdancing or B-Boying has come back into national prominence. On television, in movies, and on music videos the movements of breakdance have recaptured the imagination of new generation of dancers. Nasty Ray came up with an idea of battle the strips away all the mainstream artificiality and displays the true and most dynamic essence of the dance. “Infamous is about the passion and purity of the dance” says event creator Raymond Mora.
Battle participants will compete in a series of One on One Battles for a $500.00 cash prize. What separates INFAMOUS from other dance competitions is the emphasis on preserving the true culture of the dance with contestants being judged on their ability to perform acrobatic feats in time with music.
To give the battle a world class feel, Mora has brought in one the top DJ’s in the breakdance world (Lean Rock) to provide the musical backdrop. In the words of Nasty Ray “Infamous is attempt to return to the good old days of Breakdance when it was just about the dance”
