HELLO 2013! For this being my last video recorded in 2012 and my first video dropped of 2013 I wanted to have a really strong message. And I want this message to go out to all the aspiring choreographers and artists who face conflict with people who try to degrade your art-and my advice to you is really cheesy but also really true---by saying nothing and continuing to progress wins you the battle, the war, and anything else that may come along-so when something irritated me recently-I said nothing and went straight to creating this. So...thank you for the inspiration.
I choreographed to this song because even though I was irritated ---it was just irritation and nothing more---and I feel like what drake is doing in this song is just venting to Aaliyah. Even though what drake is saying is very aggressive the flow of her voice and the beat is calming and soothing-almost as an ear to listen to drakes troubles. The ending where I let the beat ride and I just listen-is me listening to Aaliyah (or anyone in my life) that is there to calm me down and let me know they are there for me and will be there to guide me through my irriation.
Setting Concept: This video takes place at my dad's work---he now works the late shift in downtown Chicago as a trader---my favorite days as a kid were always going to work with DAD :)---so i took some inspiration from real life when I went with my dad to work on my last visit and as I was reading through some social media hate-It inspired me to choreograph in the abundant amount of space there is in the office as it was probably 12am--- and that real life experience inspired me to use that concept in this video.
Lastly I want to thank my good friend Jon Jovellanos and his production team COMMONLESS for coming out last minute durring the holidays to record this video and turn it into such a dope little production. I really appreciate it fellas...and here is their info if you are looking to use them!

thank you guys for watching and reading if you read all that-lol- and I hope you enjoyed the video as much as I did creating it and sharing it with you all---i pour my heart into everything i release and i hope you all know how much your support truly means to me.
AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST!
PEACE OUT #KUBSKOUTZ

I love how he choreographs to the words and not always the beats.. it shows how much more creative he is as a choreographer and how his pieces are genius.
Never knew what passion through dance seriously meant until I came across Ian Eastwood.
poetry, killer and a detailed dancer = 102.99 % SWAG
2016 and i still come back to watch this video. he looks so good and his dance moves

You are freaking amazing and extremely talented!!! I don't know how you think of the choreography in your mind but it turns out so beautiful. If I could just live in your head for a day.
I love all of ur dances and song choices, I want ur whole playlist.😍😍
Ian never fails to blow me away. through his dancing i can visually see and feel all of the beats, all of the lyrics in the song. It's his power to intertwine himself and become one with the music. it truly is amazing, inspirational.
I'm blown away every time you dance
holy throwback...
The way his dance moves correlate to the lyrics make this truly amazing. his emotion and moves are on point. every move was executed perfectly, one of his best pieces tbh.
Whenever Ian choreographs he always makes me rethink the meaning of the song- what emotion the artist is truly portraying. His choreography sticks with me and makes me think back to the dance every time i listen to the song.. just Amazing.
never understood what they meant by saying people can be like your own drug, but now.. i completely get it
He killed this piece...
Ian really truely has a passion for dance, by the way he moves and chooses his songs- from hard core rap, to slow songs and such he really puts not only his mind and body into it, but his soul. I love Ian Eastwood for that. He's a true dancer
I love the way Ian dances. His choreo is always on point.
His passion for dance makes his choreography dope and sexy at the same damn time. Ian never disappoints. Ian, you have no idea how much you inspire me...
You inspire me so much. My family doesn't want me to pursue dance as a career. They want me to choose a more "stable" career, but I won't quit. I love dance to much. Thanks for your words and dances Ian. They both are flawless.
Ian taught this in choreography in WOD in Chicago ! And let me tell you it was just amazing to see him dance this peice in person ! You can really see the emotion and hard work he put into this particular peice ! Phenomenal ! We all love you Ian Eastwood ! Your beyond amazing !
one of my favourite pieces from him, not only cause the right song choice & choreography .. but because this actually reached into me & touched me. from only watching this, i felt a great aura coming from the chorey & music mashing together. so now i know what he feels & what hes trying to say through this piece
Hey guys wanna just let you know I had a some spare time and just read through every single comment that has been left so far & i really am blown away at the response you guys have given me. I mean every word i say in the description-never let someone question your integrity as an artist because if those naysayers really love dance & you are inspiring people it will never matter who's the best or who's right and who's wrong as long as its truly YOURSELF you are sharing with the world. thankyou.
Ian seriously, you don't have to even say a word to anyone about your talent. People are gonna talk, your drive and skill speak for itself bro, you're extraordinary!
Its funny because I am not even a dancer, and I am able to truly appreciate Ian's talent. This video is amazing, it gives life to the message in Drake's verse. Ian's musicality and ability to express himself through dance is literally incredible. Way to go Ian.
Not only was this dancing amazing, but the way you took the song and gave it a new meaning! I know this because I loved this song prior to this video release and I never thought of it the way you did! Thanks or spreading your vision with us!
that was great. I look foward to all of your videos and get excited when i see a new one. such a insparation.
I cant stop watching this. The way you connect to the music is insane.
i dont really think i can explain how much i love this piece, so im just going to tell you, I love this piece, I love how it comes off as brooding leading to venting leading to kinda calming down. its like a story being played out through dance in front of my eyes
Your choreo gave me chills as usual, and I could really feel the emotion. Epic job, thank you Ian !
what you wrote in the description made me love it and respect you even more. your mind has a beautiful flow, you really listen
I don't know much about the art of "dance", but your pieces always make me strive to do better in what I like to do. And that's making music. You're amazing, Ian. Keep doing what you do. You're young and inspiring, it gives all of us something to look forward to.
i love that no matter how much you grow as a dancer and become more well known, you are still YOU. I've been watching your videos for over a year now, and you are still the same genuine, hard working dancer i first saw. and i love it :)
It's amazing how much work he puts into his dancing. I appreciate the fact that he actually creates his dances using the lyrics of the song rather than just the beats of the song. You have this dancer here showing his unique skill of dancing, but you're also recognizing the message of the song as well. That's what's important and I love that he doesn't use and abuse the song, but promotes the emotions and thoughts behind it through his body movements and facial expressions. I love this video.
He's changed so much from back from I saw his workshop in detroit...he's doing so good and improving every step of the way. That's truly passion.
This is absolutely flawless, don't ever stop doing what you do. You inspire me to start expressing myself through my talents. Bravo.
Incredible, as always. Definitely worth waiting for!
Deep. I had to watch it again. Great job Ian! You're so talented. Thanks to Brian for mentoring you too! You guys are amazing!
This guy... Ian Eastwood, my greatest inspiration. Like man, honestly this is beyond amazing. I'm literally mind blown right now. Lookin up to you like crazy for the longest time now man. Our minds are so alike when it comes to dance, but you express it on a whole other level. Mad goosebumps. Lookin up man.
Ian, I haven't watched the video yet but after reading your description, I just wanna say that you really are one of the most inspirational people I've ever met. I look up to you and other dancers, and I know I will be for a long time. Thank you for being you and staying true to yourself and what you do.
seriously. i cried for a bit when i saw this. all of your stuff is always inspirational to me. i am an aspiring choreograher and people are trying to bring me down right now in this small city. this made me feel worlds better and i have no words for how thankful i am for this. keep going. the struggle is everything.
legit in love, i can feel his dancing through the screen... i love you Ian!
gosh just the movement in your body is just breath taking i enjoy eveytime you post up a new video cant wait for your next one :D
I felt your emotion through this. I'm so freaking proud of you! Keep doing what you do Ian! You're amazing
I have watched every video you have ever posted.. And each video I think to myself wow their is no way he can top that.. But you prove me wrong each and every time. Ian you are beyond inspirational !! Thank you for doing what you do.
seriously thank you Ian.I gotta let you know how much this helped me. Being the only dancer here and not being understood by anyone it often gets hard for me to still keep on trying not to just stop. I sometimes feel like there's no way I'm ever gonna achieve something as a dancer cause I dont get much opportunities to prove myself to other dancers and all those people making fun of me dont make it easier. but I wont let this stop me. this meant more to me than you can imagine, on so many levels
Amazing as usual! And I love the message you're sending, and the concept. Keep up the good work Ian!
You dancing to this song has already made my year. Thank you! Xx R.I.P Baby Girl, Aaliyah.
you have such an amazing and unique way of dancing. i'm seriously mind blown every time i watch you move. it's like the music flows through every cell in your body and takes over you. i hear and see every beat with every move. i never really saw dance as big part of my life but i saw you dance for the first time (2011) and ever since i've been fascinated by the art of dance. thanks for being such an inspiration. i love you so much Ian Eastwood
I can't even find the words to descire how incredible this song and the choreography is. Thank you, Ian Eastwood for being you and expressing your talent so beautiful through music.
Proud to be one of the first people that he taught this piece to at the CCC YL Workshop back in November...so powerful! Thanks, Ian!
This is what I needed man, especially considering your description. Thank you for sharing.
It takes an admirable amount of creativity, respect, and humility for a choreographer to so fully honor the music in their own work. It's literal, yes, to a degree; I love it that way. But look more closely, he's always doing more than you think.
Ian is truly blessed. Amazing as always ! Can't wait to see you in France !
i'm in love with Ian and his style... love it
Ian always seems to amaze me. Such inspiration
Every choreography you make, make me feel more and more. You're a really important inspiration to me. THANK YOU FOR MAKE ME FEEL SOMETHING VERY SPECIAL!!!
One of my favorite dances. I've probably watched this millions of times still amazes me
I found your videos and im hooked. You tell such a story with your fluid movement. I love watching dance but you leave me in awe every time. Beautiful.
Speechless... The mind of Ian Eastwood is amazing. Every move he does he puts 1000% of passion into. His emotions are portrade in his movement. His art. You inspire me. Not only as a dancer but as a human being. I hope one day i find my passion in life that I can put fourth as much love into as you do to dance. Ian Eastwood, youre amazing. Ps: Yall read the description & youll understand somewhat of why this man is incredible.
This was AWESOME ! You're an inspiration to many! I Love how you interpret your moves with the lyrics in the song .

After reading your description&then watching the video it all made sense! you did such an awesome job& it was amazing to watch this over 10 times now. you have a true talent and the people that are talking down& being negative all they wish for is to be you, they hate on how amazing& inspirational you are. They wish they could walk a mile in your shoes! Ian, your passion for what you do helps people find who they want to be. So never give up. I loved this&im looking to more, 2013 is your year.
i appreciate this video so much! the meaning and back story changes the perspective! even tho the choreo was already dope. thank you ian for the inspiration!.

Such an inspirasion, thanx Ian Eastwood!!!!!
Every video you do is even better, I love it
Ian is one of the best dancers out there. He dances with feeling and is himself when he dances. I praise him
this is my favorite dance of yours so far!!! you are such an inspiration. Thank you, Thank you for being you!(:
Phenomenal performance man!! Love your artistry and intensity. I see the heart in this piece so clearly.
Ian's detailed choreo gives me chills!
Hey Ian! I love this video! I also loved it when you taught hip hop at the Pulse On Tour in Atlanta! I loved the dance "LET ME LOVE YOU"! It was my favorite dance out of all of the other dances I learned! Thank you so much for making my first time at The Pulse fun and enjoyable! You were very funny and you inspire me!!! Thank you so much!!! XOXOXO!!!
I don't understand people saying this isn't that good, etc. Because the "bothers me when you gotta play therapist, that sh*ts embarrassing" was REALLY EXTREMELY well executed and the way he kind of tantrum'ed on the floor after that line said a LOT. This is good. Really good.
Greatest inspiration! You and chachi are the whole reason I started dancing even though its in my bathroom lol but I'm getting really good done about 2 of your chor. Time to start taking classes (: thank you! Dancing is a way to take all this pressure off my life
For the longest time, I've been having trouble completing a choreo. After watching your video, I realized why. I'm so focused on making movements that matter, and that would actually make an impression. I was so focused on whether or not this certain move would be appealing to others. Your style just spoke to me. You take risks. Your style is so unique and you aren't afraid to do something different. I need to stop thinking so much and start focusing more on the feeling. Big ups!
Ian never fails to disappoint! Speechless.
This is so awesome I just have to watch it over and over again!
You are amazing ! Such a great piece I always love the emotion you put into your dancing
This is absolutely perfect. I loved the passion you put into this piece, it played out perfectly with the song. You've excelled so much in dance, and I'm so happy I've been able to watch you transform into such an amazing choreographer. Very inspiring piece. You've outdone yourself this time Ian.x
i love how when he dances he goes with the lyrics and the beat! i can feel his emotion! AMAZING!!!!
That was fresh!! Love the concept and the cinematography. Choreography dope as always. Keep it up Ian!!
I could watch this a billion times and NEVER get tired of it. Evrytime i watch your videos i get chills cause the choreography is just insanely brilliant and what you wrote in the description has inspired me to become the best performer i can be. Wish you luck with everything. (:
it's real tight getting a little snippet/peak into your process of how you interpret the music and words and matching a movement that reads. And seeing you do it with your dad, just kinda shows the relationship you two have. Amazing video!
waited a while for a new video and this was definately worth the wait . amazing as usual
