Shiggy and Junebug have had astronomical viral moments that took the world by storm. In 2015, Shiggy created the #InMyFeelingsChallenge that not only skyrocketed Drake’s hit single to #1 on the Billboard charts, but exploded it into a viral challenge that many top celebrities and millions around the world participated in. Five years later, the #BeatboxChallenge emerged created by Bay Area dancer Junebug. This dance quickly became the #1 challenge in the country during a pandemic, first blowing up on TikTok and then instagram shortly thereafter due to the huge celebrity participation. The challenge gave SpotemGottem his first charted entry onto the Billboard Hot 100 Charts.

Ricardo states “I wanted to create something on our platform that was truly unique, the first ever pay-per-view dance battle. I’m all-in for the culture.” Ricardo is definitely not new to this industry as he has had a lot of success in the production and marketing arena during his five year tenure with his mentor and former boss Floyd Mayweather.
An IGTV battle between Shiggy and Junebug went viral with over 3 million views and prompted these two viral superstars to partner with Packed House Live to host, promote, and participate in the House Party Dance Battle 2 on Pay-Per-View.
