KAYLAR: So annoying...
NENA: S**t, f***, s**t..
[laughs]
S**t.
RUTHIE: WAIT– WAIT, this wasn't my answer!
KAYLAR!
NOOO!
CLAY: Hey y'all, It's Clay!
Welcome back to another episode of "3 Choreographers 1 Song."
For today's episode, we have three AMAZING dancers.
Ruthie Fantaye,
Kaylar Preite,
and Nena Muhammad.
The three will be performing to "Lemonade (Ft. Don Toliver and NAV)"
by Internet Money and Gunna.
Let's get into it.
CHOREOGRAPHER #1: RUTHIE FANTAYE
RUTHIE: Yo what's up guys!
My name is Ruthie Fantaye!
I have choreographed and danced for VMO and LFG!
My thought process for this piece was-
just to kind of listen to his cadence
and the way that he SAYS things.
And, the basses hit HARD,
so definitely grab a few of those!
Some inspirations that guided- uh, this piece–
honestly I did this in a parking lot.
I LOVE dancing in parking lots-
I was on the sixth floor-
at a parking lot looking at the city like,
"Ooh!"
"Got the juice–!"
Y'know? I don't know–
[laughs]
NENA: Ahh!
Just already with the laugh!
[laughs]
KAYLAR: OOOoooooo!
Can we do it again?
Eughh!
Duuude!
Ugh!
Keep going! [laughs]
Get it!
I hate her so much- oh my God..
[laughs]
She's–!
KAYLAR: So annoying...
I just–
her power's INSANE.
GRrrah!
I KNEW she was gonna–
hit it HARD- like EuHHh!
NENA: The beginning when she's like, "EhHhH!"
And then all she did-
she did at the end too and I was just like,
"That's just– just SO Ruthie."
KAYLAR: The part that stood out to me the most was this-
NECK grab..
cause–
I just–
Normally, anyone would- you know..
neck..
but she-
made it- it's own thing and like,
referenced something else and,
I thought that was sick.
NENA: My favorite part definitely was the part where she like-
came HERE and then she just did like a-
like a heel-toe situation-
she came like DOWN–
but that's a very Lite Feet type-a feel
and I f***–
S**t, I f*** with it.
I said it!
[laughs]
CHOREOGRAPHER #2: KAYLAR PREITE
KAYLAR: Hi, my name is Kaylar Preite.
I've danced for 220 and Season 3 of Beyond Babel.
I just- really wanted to have fun.
I love this song,
I listen to it ALL the time.
And every time I'm just like,
["Lemonade" plays]
As you can see on my face, I'm smiling the whole time
and having a good time and I just wanted that to show.
Some of my inspirations that guided my movement
were the vocalizations of the artist.
Uhh, I was trying to hit all the-
EUUUUEEEE– you know like,
how they would go up and down and vibrato
and everything and also-
wordplay.
Gotta love it.
NENA: Ew..
RUTHIE: Ohhh!
EW–! GEE-GEE!
LET 'EM KNOW!
That was so–
EeeeegghHhHHHHH!
NaOOOOO!
That's just–!
Just why are you that clean??
Like..
KAYLAR!
NOOOOO!
[laughs]
WAIT!
WAAIT!
CROSSWALK VOICE: Wait.
RUTHIE: First of all, she started- she said,
"BOOM, got the juice- HEY.."
She just- she let you–
sit in it!
NENA: Just the smoothness of it!
It was just- like a shy confidence.
Cause some people when they perform, they just like-
you know, go all the way off- like,
ERRGH- like kinda how I was doing when I first–
it's fine.
RUTHIE: And she has really good POWER!
I- I would love to see more like, hard-hitting stuff from her
that hit- that was really nice.
We gotta dance more! [laughs]
Let's choreograph!
You wanna do this song again??
Let me know!
My favorite moment was definitely like the neck whips-
like the little hair– OOH!
She gives you a little head whip-
to like let you know that she has no like-
bones in her neck..
NENA: There's one part where she went like this-
and then there's another part where she went like THIS and then she like-
twisted her leg around and like-
went ALL the way around and it was like–
Got damn b***h, hold on!
I know if I had've done that,
it- might've not looked that seamless and,
I love that.
I respect it.
F***.
S**t.
[laughs]
Damnit!
Damn!
S**t– f***!
I need to stop cussing, I'm sorry.
CHOREOGRAPHER #3: NENA MUHAMMAD
NENA: Hi everyone! My name is Nena Muhammad.
I'm signed to Clear Talent Group,
I've also danced on Team Millennia and KM.
Right now, I am a part of Motus The Company and Cameron Lee's Mentorship.
My general thought process was just to- relax.
Like, it was just coming out-
very naturally and that's kind of how I like to choreograph.
The biggest inspiration for me was..
my environment.
I have to..
create a space for myself that puts me at ease.
I like to play river sounds on YouTube,
that gets me kind of in the mood to dance-
I like to lower the lights.
One of my favorite parts in the piece,
was specifically when I–
I lifted my shirt and then I- kinda tipped it to the side
and then I did like a little James Brown.
I've NEVER choreographed that in a piece before,
so when that came out of me I was just like,
"Whoa.."
"I'm cool.."
So like– [laughs]
[laughs]
It just felt cool to like-
naturally just go to..
something you've never done before cause it just kinda lets you know, like-
your vocabulary's expanding
and that's ALWAYS a great thing.
RUTHIE: You can't!
What!
OHHeuhh!
KAYLAR: EEuHHhhh..
YUP..! YUP..!
OKAY!!
OH– she on the floor!!
YUHH-! Oh she got abs!!
[laughs] HEEYY!
GEE!
Okay!!
Euhh! [laughs]
RUTHIE: Oh she got abs!
[laughs]
I don't know why I said that!
[laughs]
KAYLAR: She's so SMOOTH..
Wow...
I can tell exactly who she is and–
she's a bad B!
For sure!
She exuberates such confidence,
power,
and- beauty and it's just, incredible- wow!
RUTHIE: Her like, PATIENCE–
was REALLY refreshing to see-
cause I feel like me and Kaylar are just-
"OFF THE JUICE!"
Like we're–
off the juice.
And floorwork??
Me and Kay– oh,
Kaylar kinda–
we didn't–
no floor.
[laughs]
That's a lot– for this song?? Mm..
You won!
KAYLAR: The part of her piece that stood out to me the most was her hitting that
"Ahhh YEAHHHH!"
cause I've NEVER HEARD THAT.
And I LOVE when like, choreographers can do that-
like, show you a part of the song you've never heard
even though it's a song you listen to ALL the time.
RUTHIE: I think that the way her piece kinda fits her is the MATURITY.
The way she moves and like, the way she takes her time-
just like shows that she's–
much older than both of us
so like I need to get my training in-
or I need to get my YEARS in.
Somebody needs to–
start CLOCKING me in for work because-
I wanna get on THAT tip.
Anthdu– and the abs??!
That- that's a part of her personality too I guess!
[laughs]
