Six-year-old B-Girl Terra holds it down. I have been totally smitten (and slightly obsessed) with this sultry, groovy and soulful funk-rock extravaganza.
(Slightly belated) Happy New Year from Tokyo!

What a talent. Someone give her a song and make record!
-
based on this video a record wouldn’t benefit her since she’s a dancer, not a singer. just saying…
-
-

As a fan of funk I can assure you there’s nothing funk related here in here. Your co-opting and misuse use of the word ‘funk’ certainly smells funky though…
-
yeah.. it’s hip hop sure enough. She’s great though.. best spins I’ve ever seen
-
-

what is the song?!!!!!!!!! so fire, dancing on point
-
What a beautiful child with a very old soul!!! I enjoyed every minute watching her talent!!!!
-
Too masculine for such a young girl.
-
Not sure what that comment means? I see a young girl who has mastery and , control of her body, and it seems to give her joy! What would you rather have her doing?
-
-
yum she about falls down through most of the song or trips over her own feet so um no.
-
@helen according to what standard? It seems to me we should focus on her wonderful talent and that’s about it.
-
@helen Masculine/feminine is sooo 20th century. Catch up with the rest of us. Androgyny challenges the norm and is ok at any age.
-
Much awesomeness indeed… this wee girl is the boss!
-
Wow wow and double wow. You kick ass little girl.
-
Awsome dance, but heck no funk.. Almost à little depressed that i vant dance as good
-
The word sultry and six year old should not be in the same sentence ever.
-
but you just put them together. don’t do that.
-
-
Just wanna give thanx to the ones who performed produced and dedicated themselves to this!!! It has made my day!!! Very uplifting and inspiring!!! Keep on doing what you do!
-
Sultry: passionate, attractive, sensual, sexy, voluptuous, luscious, erotic, seductive, provocative, alluring, tempting. The last thing this young girl should be doing is inhabiting the adult world that she seems to have been thrown into. Not at all happy to watch this video. She DOES NOT look at all happy. She has probably been coached to keep her expression blank and vacant.
-
That girl got style!!!
-
Unbelievable
-
not even on the beat. pretty embarrassing.
-
THAT – WAS – AWESOME!!
-
cool video, really good moves preformed by the young girl! She will be a star!
The light looked nice for most parts, at some point it seems like you guys move the light or mabe you used a light when the natural light was to low, how ever she got to close to the light, and the light intensity and fall off did look at bit film schoolish at that point such a shame you had to use that part.. it made the video lose its greatness also the focus was a bit to off in some frames..
-
She is breaking those gender barriers, love it!
