VietNamNet Bridge - Henry Link, one of the three most famous hip-hop artists in the world, will come to Vietnam to judge a hip-hop competition held by New York Style crew (NYS). The event, called “Heat”, will take place at the end of May.

Henry Link.

New York Style says that it was very difficult to secure Henry Link’s appearance because his work schedule is full. It also wasn’t easy to convince Link that Vietnamese people actually practice hip hop.

Link is not only a well-known hip-hop artist but also a good choreographer. He has choreographed the music videos of many famous singers in the world, including Mariah Carey, Will Smith, Coco Lee, Wyelef John, Jermain Dupre. He is especially known for Michael Jackson’s Remember the Time.

In addition to Henry Link, Heat 2014 will also feature a young judge who is one of the biggest hip-hop names in Asia for the Breaking genre - Tekky from Thailand.

Heat 2014 will include three competitions: hip-hop battle 1vs1, Bboy Battle 1vs1 and AllStyle Team Battle.

Joining this event will be female hip-hop dancers from different crews like New York Style, Cun Cun, an Soulwaackers and male dancers Thanh Bigtoe, Phuong sivermonkey and Viet Max.
