Watch hip-hop duo Bailey & Kida perform to “Off the Rip” by DaBaby during the World of Dance season 4 premiere. The junior duo are competing for a $1 million dollar prize, and the title of best dancer in the world.
After the young duo perform, the judges panel note their lack of chemistry. “Here’s the good news,” says judge and WOD executive producer Jennifer Lopez, “You’re both great performers.” But she continues, “We can tell that you haven’t been dancing together a long time.” However, Jennifer calls them both exceptional nevertheless.
Fellow panelist Derek Hough adds, “It’s kind of like a chemistry thing,” he says. “It’s like a vibing off each other…but I think that will come with time.” Judge Ne-Yo is simply floored by the duo’s technical ability, calling their last move a “sneaky ending.”
