Justice Crew

Australia's dance troupe Justice Crew is proof that dreams can happen. From humble beginnings in Sydney's western suburbs, the seven member outfit became one of 2010's hottest talking points when they won "Australia's Got Talent". 

"Winning the competition was like a dream come true" explains Emmanuel "EMan" Rodriguez, the unofficial front man of Justice Crew. "It was like a book which starts from where we came from, how Justice came together, how we entered the competition, and then winning the series.” Taking out the competition is by no means the end of this story. The dancers split their windfall and have invested for the future – theirs and for other aspiring dancers.

The troupe tipped cash into a band fund and invested in Justice Academy Inc, a program which helps disadvantaged young Australians work on their confidence, self-expression and team-building skills by hosting free dance workshops and classes.

All seven members are hands-on at the Justice Academy, which uses music and dance to empower future generations. Age is no barrier. In 2010, the Academy's 5- 9 year old graduates competed in the 2010 LA World Hip Hop competition under the name "Little Justice".

The seven hip hoppers come from diverse backgrounds, with dancing the coming thread. They met through dance circles in their late teens and in early 2009 became Justice Crew. They're very talented. They're the best in the country at what they do.
In 2009, the team entered into the World Hip Hop Dance Championships in Las Vegas, finishing a credible 14th. A bigger finish would come when on June 15, 2010; the crew made it all the way in "Australia's Got Talent."

Since then they have released Justice Crew's several singles, (ARIA certified Double Platinum for their single Best Night!) an album and DVD and have toured both nationally and internationally.
