Best Website Dedicated to the Art of B-boying/Breakdancing = breakdance.com
» Awarded to the website that most creatively and thoroughly represents the art of B-Boying/Breakdancing.

As good as it gets: 4532 members and free member pages. Combine that with word up (message boards), b-boy lounge (media, animaed gifs, videos), moves (the 411 on all the moves from 180 flip to the windmill), online events calendar and member directory, and you got yourself a worldwide b-boy movement. Should be an easy win for best b-boy site.

Hottest Music Video = @$*#!!!
» Awarded to the producer/creator of the music video with the best overall concept and/or visual effect.

I'm going to have to pass on this one. I got burnt out on the video thing after hip hop artists started making the big budget music video. I don't watch music videos; every now and then I might catch one while channel surfing and if I stop on it, it's usually because something about it struck my eye and that's usually a bad thing (tight lyricists carrying weak imitators, rappers doing their best Will Smith impersonation or the countless number of artists with Soprano syndrome).  You're gonna have to help me out, what do you think is the hottest music video and why? Email me and I'll feature your replies in an upcoming article. Deal?
