The Philippine All-Stars placed 4th this year at the 8th USA Hip Hop Championship and World Hip Hop Championship held at Las Vegas July 27 thru August 2. Many had felt that their routine was not as clean as last year, but their choreography was just mind blowing. Compared to the other crews that place in the top 3, they should have gotten 2nd or 3rd place.This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
