One thing about cam she a born leader so her leading is so natural. Cam is that girl always been. that why diana made her captain cause she knew cam potential. This shows that cam would ate that captain position up.
CAM did such an awesome job, she had the energy that was needed all season! I agree that Arielle was boring as a Captain but would have made an awesome tail.
They definitely deserve their flowers. Especially being that it was like having 7 new freshman because 20 didn’t have a full season. So to do what they do, in a panera bread, and challenges along the way and still deliver, nothing but great should be given to them! Congratulations Ari & Cam! 🥳
Cam was and is 🔥🔥🔥. A true leader in my book. I love Ari but honestly Cam DELIVERED like she has in every position she has danced. She danced with her entire body, from head to toe. Great job Dolls!!
I’ve got to give it to Cam, baby girl did that. I’ll never forget the DD4L HBCU salute where she was in the SU Doll salute. Her destiny was a Doll and did she end her reign as “That Doll!” Great season!!!
I like Ari but I have to be honest, when Cam was leading it satisfied my appetite! She served me everything I needed and more. Her energy and presence was needed! The girls came to dance when Cam was in the front! It is what it is….🤷🏽♀️
We not taking nothing from Arielle…great technical dancer and all, most likely the best on the team with OUTSTANDING FIELD SHOWS…But BABY Cam said don’t play with me play wit yo pwassi lol and came for necks…She led the girls down and let’s talk about her PRESENCE alone…Even the haters know but they will continue to hate (talking about pep rally songs….NO MAAM and NO SIR not gonna let y’all have that)…When you can throw old counts and make them look new, refreshed, and ENTERTAINING and not boring thats says something ( we have been getting synchronized swim dance tease in the stands all season NO SHADE)….Let’s talk about the energy of the team behind her…For the first time they looked like they were having fun and backed her and matched her energy at the same time…It looked like a totally different squad with her up front…And I’m another person that had no idea who Cam was until she was on this team…She ATE down and the team followed PERIOD…Say what you want but look at sponser AKAI and the other lady faces back their when she was leading (SHOOK and couldn’t stay still)….I don’t know what they gonna do next yr…Good job ladies!
Haha I couldn’t say it better. Cam gave this squad GROWN WOMAN swag in the little 10 min or so she led, and Arielle ate as tail. The crabs gave energy,focus and backed up the girl in front, we didn’t see that consistently with Arielle. I just think they focused too much on field show this season, and lacked in stands. You got to bring it in both areas at every game
I love Airi and Cam so much. They both did an amazing job this season. They had to overcome a very young team and they did it with style and grace. I agree give them their 10s now. It’s the end of an era and the beginning of a new chapter. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for Airi and Cam because the sky is the limit.
Cam ignited a fire in those girls! I haven’t seen them dance this collective while having fun all season. Absolutely love Airielle and there’s no denying that talent. But Camryn was literally born for this role, such a missed opportunity. Happy to see them prosper though.
CAM did tht ALL & in 15 mins makes u wonder cause the squad looked nice & was backing her up gave me a total different energy which is wht we was missing this season frm the dolls cause they looked like a whole new squad behind CAM & confident now these are the Dancing Dolls perfect #ATETEEN signing out!
I didn’t watch dd4l so I didn’t know of cam until she joined the dolls and there was talks of controversy. But cams energy was refreshing and when she danced the team matched her energy. I like Ari too, but I feel like Ari would’ve have better led a team of seasoned vets this year, while cam would’ve killed this season with crabs. Its all about how she presented herself. Now Ari will go down as having some of the best field shows though! I will not take that away from her.
Yes ODC!! These ladies were Awesome. They showed out more than just the field show. They ate the entire weekend. Spendid ladies. Shake the haters...🖤💛❤💯🔥
I’m loving how all DD4L girls pulling off this caption role for senior night 🔥🔥🔥. I feel like this the most energy they ever had all season . This one for the books n can’t forget the Kengi moment that was legendary as well 💙💙💙
Camryn looked more comfortable leading than in the tail spot. I still liked her as tail but you can tell she was limited. With being a Doll tail, you either have to be KNOWN for a delicate, softness or ALLOWED to be out-of-the norm for it to really translate. Though Cam is very sensual, she's not soft & we've seen her as the total opposite. Many people are just used to seeing her in powerhouse mode & prefers her to dominate. I still admire her for going out of her comfort zone tho bc Doll style is far from easy when coming from a competitive background. She has true range
Congratulations to the Southern Fabulous Dancing Dolls 💛💙on a great year but baby when CAM started to lead them girls everyone wig and lace were snatched she delivered these counts to us even tho i didn’t go she gave me the chills all the way in lafayette good job cam i freakin love it💓💓
Been following Cam since DD4F all the way up to the bayou classic 2021 and all I can say is bravo 👏🏾 Cam bravo here are your flowers 💐💐. May you continue to be that girl now woman in your future endeavors🥰🥰
Cam threw those counts sooooo effortlessly!! The dream captain we all wanted to see!,, I will definitely missed Cam. Kudos to Arielle too but Cam was that captain for that short time!The lineup looked perfect behind Cam too! It was good to see Dianna out there supporting her doll!
Love both ATEteen dolls. I wish Airielle gave Cam more opportunities to actually tail. Like Airi didn’t do enough all together stands. So she barely got to shine back there like Mel did in ‘17. BUT I’m glad Cam got this moment. Their presence will definitely be missed next year. 💜
Essence is a powerhouse. I just love her 😍 And my thoughts on the Dolls were they had the best field shows out of all the dance lines but the stands were borderline boring and the energy wasn’t there for me 🤷🏾♀️ Airielle has this milky, if not whimsical way of dancing and that’s cute and all but there needs to be versatility. Some songs deserve a different type of energy (like Knocking Heads Off) and attitude and it wasn’t there
That’s the issue I have.. power can’t be milked.. even when they did the bobble head count.. you have to hit that count hard.. some Doll counts are made for hard hitting songs
Cam and Ari!!! Vets and Rookies! Thank you for the season! Thank you, Cam for representing yourself so well in the public eye from such a young age - I wouldn't have discovered HBCU dance teams without seeing your DD4L journey. I loved Cam's energy in all the clips, especially the last one in this video - just pure joy, to me. Arielle brought a lot to the season in terms of pushing the envelope in the field shows - and the entire team was there backing her up, count for count. I wish her new counts were used more in the season - they were cute to me. I think I got a lot of the same "pure joy" energy from Arielle this season (just my opinion), but I think in Cam's other clips leading, there was also some "also, do not try me" energy, which has a different vibe. The band always sounded amazing, but is it just me or did they lean really heavily on the super slow songs this season? Great for demonstrating musicianship, but downplays the momentum for the stands, IMO. I hope the team can continue to push the envelope on the field, but also do that for the stands. I saw a couple doll-like and stingette-like arm and body actions in a lot of teams this year (hey, it looks nice on them - no shade), but maybe that is a cue for the Dolls to up the ante within their style (or within the technical ability of the dancers) in the stands. Because these field shows were un-touch-a-ble. In the meantime, I'm patiently waiting for a solo feature for Cam on TRIN...
I’ve thought the same thing about the songs. They’ve been majority slow and slow is nice at moments but it’s gets boring after a while. Not ari fault though like everyone makes it out to be
My thoughts: Many can have the dance, leadership & technical skills but not everyone has the Charisma and fierceness required to be a Captain. When you look at the Great ones, such as Danielle, Janae, Dominique, Kevia, Brianni (in high school and now) and others... they all have that IT girl vibe. They engage the camera, move with purpose in their own way to catch and keep your attention. They didn't just throw counts with perfection they put that FINESSE AND FLAIR on it. Their energy is infectious and you won't deny that you have just been entertained!! You can still be traditional, technical and well trained and controlled... but in the end, the full package is what is memorable.
If you don’t come on here and PREACH sis….Very well said….No one in the comment section is coming for Ari…they are simply telling the truth…Cam up front makes you want to watch them more…They moved different with her leading…All these folks gotta do is go watch previous videos of THE SAME SONGS led by the captain and they will see the proof…Thanks for this comment!
You ate that comment….In my opinion, I am a huge fan of the Dolls but this season I just wasn’t feeling it. I definitely would’ve love to have seen Cam lead for the season. Not to take away from Ari but Cam moves were Milky which is what the dolls are known for.
cam is everything we want in a dancer from the world of hbcu and more. the respect he has for this discipline is so great that he overflows with passion with each movement. She is a born leader and it shows when dancing. I hope she achieves all her goals and objectives and we will be here to support her as the Fabolous dancing dolls that she is ... Ariele did what he had to do and although honestly it was something that we hoped would happen with this leadership, the work is applauded. Let's hope for a signifcant evolution of this team for 2022 (although I would honestly like to see Camryn giving it his all) and I think the foundations were laid for next year to be a great season.
Baby they should have put Cam on the field without dance restrictions cause while Ariel is that doll she is not battle material.. Yess Essence did that.. 👏 but I'm with my dolls still
I love Airi as captain personally. I think she was held back for obvious reasons. The only thing is I don’t think we got to see Airielle’s identity as captain. Some games I got Gabby. Some I got KP. Then at the pep rally I got Searra. Essence is just iconic. Would have loved to see her on a different team but she did what she came to do.
Yessss Essence!,You & Ya Girls Make Em Feel Ya'll Boo!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥I think that the Dolls did a nice job with Ari. But Cam,Cam,Cam!!!Let me just say that babygirl did not disappoint 🔥🔥 She lead gracefully,took things to a Whollllllle Nother Level & her team had her back 1000%.Im talkn bout them girls was matching each others energy up there babiii & they was having a gr8 time with it.And let me just say that the tail came all the way through 💪💪❤❤Essence & Cam both have elevated so much from when I first started watching them dance.All of their hard work,dedication & determination is definitely paying off 🦍🦍❤❤
I started watching dolls for Cam, but they do not give me what I needed. Cam should've been capt - like Kenji or Cialah should've been upfront instead of Amber
I saw both Auntie Bougie Ms. Dixon and Dani Stamper in Camryn! Ari and Cam led the team strong. I wish they were co-captains...that would have been amazing! Congratulations ladies!
For me Orchesis got this Bayou Classic on lock. Dolls I need to see new routines in the stands for next year since I only saw like one maybe the whole season. But I must say to the dolls you all did a good job I just thought i was going to see something new in the stands. Also Arielle and Cam held it down and led the crabs through the storm graciously.
Look the other captain is great but they robbed Cam , idc idc … I hate that they hid her In the back,tail my ass .. she leads and for a team full of crabs she should of been captain due to her power and presence it outweighs the other captain and it’s shows.
Yeah the captain was good but if Cam was the head /captain we would have been entertained and not bored Cam high Jacked the captain position that night she had the people paying attention she did the damn thing for that lil time and yesss the girls gave it too they looked like they were waiting to follow Cam and yeah Arielle the captain she would've made a great tail Cam could've finish one of them songs all the way to the fullest but I love Came she did an amazing job Ms.D I know she was proud love you Cam and you too Morgan Williams ❤❤×5 10 Tens 🎉🎉🎊🎊🎊🤩💯
Camryn is Danielle trained and Gabby raised so of course she was going to give it to you. As for Airielle I feel as though she babied her crabs unlike some other captains. As we seen in 15 Mel was constantly messing up, and Kayla continued to roll the counts no matter what and Mel just had to roll with it and practice more. That's what Airielle should have done, but she did amazing as captain most of y'all need to realize that we're not always going to get a Danielle, Gabby, or Jada as captain.
@@chelsipinkett6369 Mel, Jordan, Alyx, Jaq, and Tailyn… while it was only Connor, Maya, Danielle S, and Danielle L as vets. While Airielle had Ashlynn, Haley, Chania, Naomi, and Lauren… while it was only Cam, Kyree, and Khaliyah as vets. Same amount of crabs
Kyree and Khaliyah did not have vet experience. Let’s be real. Same amount of crabs… yes. But Kayla’s crabs didn’t comprise the majority of the team. And that factor makes a big difference. She had more help and her crabs had true vets to learn from and dance next to. Airielle had a team full of crabs and did a job well done. We can respect each other’s opinions, but I don’t see that as a fair comparison.
Energy was def up when Cam led but this your one shot in four years to lead, you better go off! But I definitely loved seeing Airielle as tail. Hell that was the best tail moment we’ve seen this season! But y’all know southern wasn’t gonna let Cam be captain. So Airielle was in an odd position and more so made to be captain. Glad they were able to do all four years. 🤷🏾♀️
I really wish you would’ve reviewed the Dolls field show because CHILE! Best field shows in HBCU all season, and I might dare to say that Arielle has had the best field shows of all Doll captains. I think you were right that the Dolls choose to focus on fields more than stands, but also looked at their stand performances from like the TSU and FAMU game, Arielle was GIVING! Nonetheless, I’m so proud of both Arielle and Cam, and they will be missed!
The dolls needed one more heavy hitter to balance the team out. They should’ve kept Lindsey to help since they were so crab heavy. I really believe that would’ve made a difference.
Arielle was 🔥🔥🔥🔥 as captain. Cam's fierceness should not be pitted against Arielle. They can both be great. Arielle is a dancer's dancer and earned every bit of the captainship. Arielle had to bring a team out of a pandemic and build a new team. The other piece to this is that the band and dolls had a lot during the week---Saints Game, BOTB, Parade, Gameday. Thats alot! It seems like people are never satisfied.
@@londondivester If you're trying to say Danni wasn't captain when cam joined, you're right. She still trained cam she said so herself in a post to cam on her instagram. Which is why cam and Danni are so close.
@@yungm498 oh ok. I wondered why Danni did that tribute at the DD4L reunion. When did she train her? Was this to help her get onto the team or when she was already a doll?
@@londondivester I think once she made the team is when she started training her. I’m not quite sure the post should still be on danni instagram though.
Thanks for the 🎥 coverage Morgan. (🌟) Essence is, well, "The (💎) Essence"...and it is prevalent in each dance routine. I hear that she is returning next season!!! 👍 The Dolls are also excellent...(💎)...I understand that the styles of dance are unique for both teams, therefore, I don't rate them, just respect and enjoy their awesome presentations. 👏 🌹 🏆/👏 🌹 🏆 p.s. Thank you also for highlighting Ms. Cam. Had she led any song, we would have never heard the end of her accolades. She is the "Fans Captain".
They didn’t give Cam captain because she was on tv, that’s how I feel. She was the better selection for Captain and everybody knows it. Arielle should’ve been the tail. Cam would’ve had this team together.
I'm not understanding why she don't get a full season? Cause Essence is 🔥. I know Orchesis have to try out for every game, but baby I thought the captain was secure
@@CurlMvrck you would think…. I attended Grambling before transferring to Southern and I never seen a captain lose their position. It’s also very convenient how she was in front for all the popular/rival games🤔
Yessss! I ❤the Dolls but the Orchesis counts killt it! Becz the captain did it again with them! For remembrance! Plus...people sleep on Grambling! Wake up mofos!
I think the girls needed this energy from Cam. This showed them the other side of being a doll. Being a doll is a certain energy that we got to see and feel. They need to keep that energy right there and keep the tradition going. I am a fan of dd4l when Cam was Captain. She is a power house. 🔥 She had to Bring It. Represent. Love me some Cam.
About the uniforms. Dolls could’ve gone without the puffy sleeves. And the Orchesis actually have a pumpkin patch uniform. So idk who said they tried to copy the Dolls 🤷🏾♂️
