S-Rank

Zum Launch des Kamiq GT auf der Guangzhou Autoshow gab es nicht allzu viel Neues zu berichten, denn der GT ist eine sportlich-schickere Ausstattungsvariante des Kamiq mit leicht veränderter Dachlinie. Also sollte eine bessere Showeinlage her für die Pressekonferenz. Es gab gleich zwei Tanzeinlagen, einmal von der lokalen Dance Company Sino-Stage, die mir super gefiel aber das reichte nicht: zusätzlich, auf Wunsch vom "big boss" (wer auch immer das wirklich war), brauchten wir noch mehr Fame, also eine bekanntere Gruppe aus der Casting Show "World of Dance". Geworden ist es S-Rank, die sehr professional (und aus den USA) waren und uns das 5fache von Sino-Stage kosteten. Nun ja, für Berühmtheit muss man bezahlen...

S-Rank stands for the best, and the ‘World Of Dance’ crew has shown they have earned their name this season. Here’s 5 things to know!

1. S-Rank’s leader, Melvin, has competed on World Of Dance (WoD) before.
Melvin was a part of the Chapkis Dance Family on season 1 of World Of Dance. After that crew was cut in the Quarterfinals, Melvin made it his mission to gather the best dancers he could to create a crew that was unstoppable. S-Rank has proven to be just that, making it to the finals this season.

2. S-Rank won the Hip Hop International Awards before going on WoD
The West Coast-based crew was the first-ever US crew to win the adult division at Hip-Hop International’s World Championship in 2017.

3. The crew is a combination of dancers from different backgrounds.
S-Rank is comprised of 14 dancers from the West Coast, each with different dance backgrounds. Their different experiences help add to their overall appeal and bring many different styles to their choreography.

4. S-Rank member Davin Lawson’s mom is the crew’s manager
Davin revealed on Instagram that his mom, Cheyenne Kibblewhite, is actually the manager of S-Rank which makes her a momager.

5. The name S-Rank describes “a level that is so superlative that it cannot be described by the traditional ranking system.”
The crew chose S-Rank as their name because they strive to be the best of the best. They have definitely shown that they are the best of their Upper division on World of Dance — but eventually they did not take home the 1 million prize from WoD in 2018 but were the first runner-up.
