Only time will tell how many rounds will Bebe need/want at IBE.

In case you haven’t already read our previous feature with him, Bebe is fiercely proud and protective when it comes to Ground Zero Crew. When you’re infamous for your aggressive battle style and for drop-kicking people who get in the way of your runs, people tend to assume you don’t play well with others.

But it shouldn’t come as any surprise that he’ll be holding it down for team USA at The Notorious IBE. He’s already taken part in a number of what he calls “unlikely collaborations” with the likes of Toyz, Mijo and Kevo and will be battling alongside even more American b-boys this weekend.

It also shouldn’t be any surprised that he seems most excited about what he’s most famous for: the battle.

“The energy is really important, and it’s definitely a battle event,” says Bebe, who’ll be taking part in IBE for the first time. “I’ve seen some of the footage of it, and it looks crazy. Everybody just battles everybody, apparently — a big, raw jam.”

And with Bebe in the house, there’s no telling how raw it’s going to get.
