But when he and his freestyle musketeers, Kevin known as JabbaWockeeZ, ended up on MTV’s” America’s Stylish cotillion Crew,” dancing came his life.

You feel the energy in the room, what’s coming out.
The television screen blocks that. It’s a completely different experience.” Chance to let go For the brigades, the show is a break from the reality show competition. The routines, numerous of them new, will be longer. In addition, there will be no breaks to hear to the reviews of the judges or to count the votes cast by suckers at home for the show. The live event is a pure blend of cotillion and music, exactly what Brewer loves. “ When I started dancing, I did not suppose about getting paid, ” said the 32- time-old. “ It was about growing and understanding myself, physically articulating what I was feeling, harkening to the music and seeing what could physically be at the same time.

But we’re also fools. We make each other laugh. We are a bunch of fun guys. numerous of us have families. I’ve a 15 month old son. We do not take ourselves seriously, and people feel that.” undeserved character still, what he does take seriously is fashion. He said he learned to live on the bottom as a break cotillion , turning on his head, shoulders and back, and to move his branches freely, like he was a poppet
, like a popper and a locker. And he questions hipsterism- hop’s character as a transition to road crime. “ There’s a dark side, but there’s a dark side to everything. hipsterism- hop isn’t about road cred in order to be legal, ” Brewer said. “ The true substance of hipsterism- hop is love and expressing yourselffreely.However, people will admire you, If you express yourself actually. There’s a shade for hipsterism- hop. The crew owns a part of that. It’s a medicine culture.” The TV interpretation of the show is as important about the judges and followership as it’s about the brigades. Judges Randy Jackson, Mario Lopez and Lil’ Mama give advice, some helpful, some hurtful. But Brewer said he and the platoon took it all in stride. And with positive feedback from judge Shane Sparks, a largely reputed cotillion / choreographer, JabbaWockeeZ won over cult.

They will always be the stylish cotillion platoon in America.” Brewer said he feels blessed that JabbaWockeeZ has captured the hearts of so numerous youthful suckers. “ The live show, we’re doing it for the suckers.
