This week’s episode left us with four of the most diverse crews the show has ever seen – from one amazing crew of all bgirls, to a stereotype-breaking, spunky bunch of former Miami Heat dancers, to a high-octane, all-African American step team, and finally to an all Asian-American, fun-loving group of bboys.
Taking into consideration the composition of all the crews, it is quite interesting to realize how, at one time or another (and maybe even currently), the different social faces that these crews represent were all once very marginalized and stereotyped groups – whether it be women, Asians, stepping, or even the highly mocked art of team spirit dancers/cheerleaders.
Ironically enough, this week’s show turned into a battle of the sexes showdown, as each crew was given a song from a top male performer or a top female performer to incorporate into a dance which focused upon whether or not the males still dominated the show or whether the women had firmly taken over.
