My homegirl, Bgirl Ma-Ma of Hardcore Detroit breaking crew (in black hijab), came through for her exhibition battle against Bgirl Maresco from Virginia (in teal beanie). The event took place at the University of Michigan for Master the Art 8 (MTA8) on Saturday, March 12th, where both ladies ripped it on the floor as they displayed their skills and musicality in a featured exhibition battle. Maresco kicks it off properly: rockin’ the beat up & down, going in for the kill, giving us a full-length set. Ma-Ma was on complete battle mode, unleashing each round with full ammunition, she responded to Maresco with corresponding floor tricks & beat hitting.. & then some. Big ups to both bgirls, held it down to the fullest, without doubt! See for yourself, check the full five-round battle here.

Today, Motivation Streetwear Boutique is releasing the first part of their Summer 2010 collection. It consists of new mtvtn t shirt designs & a new New Era fitted. As quoted from the mtvtn house, “This is our second season releasing an in-store line and we hope that you will see the progression of it. We went for a classic, simpler look on all of the t-shirts and took inspiration from early 20th century art as well as collegiate teams for many of the designs. Everything will also see a release on our Online Store today as well — in fact you can check it out there now…We hope to see you there!”
