The Red Bull BC One was held Wednesday night at the Hammerstein Ballroom (NYC). The battle brought 16 of the best B-Boys from around the world and put them up against each other until the winner was crowned. This year Lilou, from Paris, took his second championship belt. KRS-One hosted the action and the audience was treated to a live performance by Talib Kweli. The legendary Rocksteady Crew came out and did a group performance, peep the video above. We have videos of the semi-final battles but unfortunately battery died so we only have half of the finals battle.

Overall, it was an incredible event, the venue was packed and energy was intense. It was great to see so much support, people traveled from all over the world, for the art of B-Boying, can’t believe how ill these dudes are now.

Congrats to all who participated, enjoy the videos after the jump
