Featured Hip-Hop Performances and Judging
A deep dive into the raw energy and authentic street culture I bring to stages, battles, and events across Namma Bengaluru.
This is the energy I live for. In the zone, feeling the music, and connecting with the crowd during a heated all-styles street battle. This is what it means to bring the fire to the floor.
Rolling deep with my crew, Bangalore Hustlers, at the India Hip Hop Dance Championship. We brought a high-energy routine, sharp execution, and that undeniable crew chemistry to the stage.
It's always a great feeling to be recognized for the hard work. Here I am after securing the runner-up position at a freestyle competition at Bhartiya Mall of Bengaluru, standing with the judge.
Honored to be on the other side of the floor, judging the next generation of talent. Here's the poster from when I was a judge for the "Floor Wars" Street Dance Battle at St Joseph's University.
Back in the studio, where the moves are born. This is a look at my solo freestyle process, just me and the beat, working on the flow and technique that I bring to every performance.
It's not just about performing, it's about preparing right. Here's a quick video where I break down my essential 5-minute warm-up routine to make sure you're ready to kill it in any battle.
Kicking off the BDS Showdown with a judge's showcase. I always start by setting the vibe and showing the competitors the level of energy and creativity I'm looking for.
About Featured
When you book a performance or judge, you are not just getting a show, you are getting the intensity of true street culture. My approach is about authenticity—whether I am performing solo, leading the Bangalore Hustlers, or breaking down a freestyle battle, I focus on the real connection between the dancer, the music, and the audience. I don't deal in fluff, I deal in energy.
My journey started in the streets and studios of Bengaluru, and every performance I do carries that same history. Whether it is a solo freestyle set meant to get a crowd hyped or a synchronized routine with my crew, the Bangalore Hustlers, the goal is always the same: keep it real.
What I Bring to the Floor
- Solo Freestyle: This is my bread and butter. As HE-Mantis, I don't rely on pre-recorded tracks or cheesy choreography. It is raw, spontaneous improvisation that adapts to the vibe of your event.
- Crew Performances: When you need a bigger impact, the Bangalore Hustlers bring synchronized, high-octane routines. We have refined our chemistry on stages like the India Hip Hop Dance Championship, and we know exactly how to fill a stage.
- Fair & Constructive Judging: I have been on both sides of the fence—competing and judging. When I judge a battle, I am looking for technique, foundation, and that unique 'spice' a dancer brings. I provide live, constructive feedback because I believe in building the community, not just scoring it.
Why Book Me?
I am based in Namma Bengaluru, but I travel wherever the scene takes me. Whether you are hosting a college fest in Delhi, a corporate event in Kerala, or a local battle, I bring a level of professionalism grounded in actual experience. My performances are high-intensity, and my judging is no-nonsense. If you want someone who lives and breathes hip-hop to handle your event, let’s talk.
