Breezer Vivid Shuffle 2022 Season 6 held at Phoenix Market city, Dublin Square, Kurla on 12th and 13th of November was a hip hop festival specially executed for the passionate and regularly practicing dancers who are called B boys and B girls.
We all love dance and when it comes to a city like Mumbai, everyone is a dancer no matter what age or occasion. But have you ever caught hip hop music playing while crossing a public garden where bunch of guys and gals with ultimate 6 packs and lean bodies are balancing themselves on their arms and backs on that constant beat at the back and sweating like hell? Well these youngsters can be representing our nation in the upcoming 2024 Olympic which will be held in Paris where break dancing will be the first dance sport ever to be at the Olympic games. Events like Breezer Vivid Shuffle are doing their best to put on a platform where dancers can participate and compete.
At the event, the stage was designed in such a way that the LED panels which were scattered in pieces gave the overall frame that raw and earthiness of the battle with all the Indian hip hop rap performers putting their souls out through music and the lights together made the vibe.
The two days had artists like Dino James, Raftaar, DJ Proof, Kr$na, Wicked Sunny and Agsy perform their rap music to buck these tired B boys and B girls who danced to win cash prizes. The crowd of their respective fans sang to all the lyrics by heart shouting on top of their lungs when DJ drops the music.
The winners were Hitesh Patel who won an online video competition and also got a chance to perform on day two. Starr Shaikh aka Fahim Shaikh was the winner of rap Cypher who won Rs. 50,000 cash prize and last but not least, Priyansh was the runner up who won a Rs. 20,000 cash prize.
Special guest appearance was Kriti Sanon who cheered up the crowd and danced on her famous songs Paramsundari and Coca Cola.
While the Breezer in all its varied fruit flavors flowed, there were also food stalls like Kickstuff and Faux d origine. There were lots to eat like rolls, donuts, grills, street foods and special alcoholic popsicles too.
There were selfie points, 360 video, anti-gravity and make your move reels booth set ups to make a memory.
All together the event was a next step to all hip hop music lovers, performers, dancers, writers and admirers who groove on hip hop beats.
