- Dancegod Lloyd has revealed that he carefully vets songs before creating viral dance challenges, often rejecting tracks with profane or meaningless lyrics.
- Speaking on NF Studio’s Top Secret segment, the award-winning choreographer said he feels a deep responsibility to the young fans who follow his work.
- He also noted that even clean songs must have rhythms that naturally inspire movement — otherwise, he won’t force a trend.
Dancegod Lloyd may be known for setting dance floors ablaze, but behind every viral challenge is a deliberate choice — and sometimes, a firm “no.”
The Ghanaian choreographer, whose moves helped catapult King Promise’s “Terminator” into global dance territory, recently shared how he selects songs for his routines. In an interview on NF Studio’s Top Secret segment, Lloyd revealed that he turns down numerous requests from artists, especially when the lyrics don’t align with the values he wants to uphold.
For him, it’s not just about rhythm — it’s about responsibility. With a massive youth following, Lloyd says he’s mindful of the messages embedded in the music he promotes. Tracks that lean heavily into profanity or lack meaningful content don’t make the cut.
But even when a song passes the lyrical test, it still has to move him — literally. Lloyd explained that choreography is a natural process, and if the rhythm doesn’t spark creativity, he won’t force a trend. Instead, he steps back and lets another dancer take the lead.
His approach has earned him respect not just as a performer, but as a curator of culture — someone who understands the power of influence and chooses to wield it with care.
