Towson's TU Vibe Dance Team Goes Viral With Beyonce's #BeforeILetGoChallenge
TOWSON, MD. (WJZ) — TU Vibe, a dance team at Towson University, is getting some worldwide recognition after their rendition of a popular challenge went viral.
The Before I Let Go Dance Challenge is a social media frenzy, and it got even crazier when Beyonce's mom, Tina Knowles, shared the Vibe's video on social media before Queen B herself saw it.
"It's definitely super surreal especially for us graduating seniors. This is a way to leave our mark at Towson."
A significant one, as 182,000 views have been tracked on their YouTube video. It all started when Mama B shared it on Instagram, even tagging the Towson page.
