Freak The Dream - ABDC episode 7
It’s pretty obvious that if The Beat Freaks have an official mascot, it would have to be the boombox. It’s in their logos, Freak The Dream performance, and a prominent fixture in their photos. The ghetto blaster is often recognized as a symbol bringing it back to the old school days of Breakin’ and Electric Boogaloo movies.

[Side note: When you hear Boom Boom Pow by The Black Eyed Peas, does anyone else try to think of what moves The Beat Freaks would come up with for this song? I can only imagine and hope to see it one day soon.]

whenever i listen to Boom Boom Pow, I ALWAYS think about Beat Freaks. Also, hopefully one day we’ll see their routine to their winning performance, because i listened to the mix of their song, Unstoppable by Kat Deluna, on district78.com, and i felt so sick taht we never got to see it to that frickin amazing beat.
