Bro thats not breakin is is beat street

@@alvarocalderon7524 is it like a heart beat?

Michael Barrow Agreed!

47 and loved this movie since the day it dropped. B-boy since the 70s! #BronxNative

47 yrs old brothers & I'm with you this was pure class still enjoy this movie and music .

Word!

Michael Barrow - Me too bro, I still get the chills watching these dudes get down!

Wild Style to me had a natural feel to it. Also the graffiti looked better in Wild Style.

Wildstyle was the original

@@cron205 WildStyle came out in 1982, Beat Street later in 1984.. WildStyle more authentic, Beat Street had that Hollywood treatment. But still a great movie

You're bugging, beefs were settled the same way back then as settled now cats were getting blasted.

​@kidgrebo1 a lot of Bronx gangs became breaking crews. The culture changed for the better.

Dogs And Yoga for real..so many of us are passing away now..but we only in the upper 40s and down 50s..well I almost got jack with the crack but thanks God he save me.

Sucks that they got murdered , I remember them from Rock Steady Crew,, the video( Hey you)

@D Piz yes that's correct, they fucked them up in the garage,,, RIP Kuriaki and Buck Four ...

Word on the street was Legs gave up Lorenzo Soto's (Kuriaki) location to a bad guy, that he was in mt Vernon....and he was whacked....possibly buck 4s brother, if you dig deep you'll find it, Legs will not speak of kuriakis death, ever

@@brianglade848 I just let their legacies live on.

DJaySplitSecond I also was around the Bronx around the time of filming but I was to Young to go to clubs. But I was there in the middle of this all with my Lee pants LeTigré shirt and pumas and gazels.

Edgardo Soto word, me and my sister got in last minute because the casting lady liked what we had on lol we had on matching red Lee suits too bad we didn’t get camera time lol

That's crazy. I wonder if there was really tension in the air, because Rock Steady and The NYC Breakers had really battled in the streets...

Wow! That's incredible to have been witness that. Absolute iconic battle.

Being part of history

"Bronx rockets hey Gino "

It's all mainstream gentrified, full of gymnastic tricks for the rich middle class suburban kids, its lost its raw gritty ghetto thing. Too clean too polished. Another thing they took from the poor and made it their own.

I always think the same thing. A crew should wear a “uniform”. Some of these dudes these days dress like dorks and wear non-complimentary stuff to what they’re doing. Don’t get it twisted though… today’s moves totally eclipse the moves of yesteryear but that’s not a diss, it’s evolution of the dance.

@@gaffle-411 yeah because back then it was inner ciry street kids, doing it for reputation and getting girls the competition was on a street level, now it's all middle class, uni graduates nerds and geeks that do it,

Everyone wants their own identity. To much personality to look the same. The dance has evolved. To much style and character.

@@romengoneg238 I disagree. These dudes these days have no dressing “flair” about them. They wear regular ass clothing that adds NOTHING to their performance or what they’re doing. These Puma sweatsuits and uniform hoodies in blue gave distinction to go along with the dance. I don’t recall a single modern-day b-boy competition where the clothing was at all noticeable and distinctive. The dancing is great but their look is blah…

for sure!! that battle was done after that turtle! IMO

HIZ HANDZPIN WAZ ALWAYZ ILL TA ME. THAT ZCENE N BEATSTREET IZ EXACTLY WHERE I DUPLICATED IT FROM. RIP GLIDEMAZTER.

I disagree the battle in Columbus circle.❤

Icey Ice wasn’t in the battle. I wonder why not…

@@gaffle-411 alot of them were touring and involved in other projects, icey ice was touring with magnificent force, you can also ask why frosty freeze wasnt in beat street.. kool lady blue..rocksteady promoter/manager at the time.split the crew in half on different projects.

@@negroantonio28 That’s suspect… Icey Ice was in Beat Street but I believe he was in that last Roxy Choir scene doing his windmill flare halo thing. I don’t buy that about Frosty Freeze. What “different projects” was he doing whilst the biggest move of Rock Steady’s career was taking place with the movie Beat Street??? I think even though he was a very popular early member of the crew, his break dance prowess was lacking in this era and they felt he didn’t make the cut. Either that or he just left b-boying alone and moved on. I’ve never seen him rolling with the crew after this movie. I only saw him in a few park events in the 90’s with RCS and it was on some old recollection/memory sh-t. And Magnificent Force was in Beat Street (Burning Spear scene) and ending.

@@gaffle-411 lol.. you talking absolute crap, and shows you not from that era and your ignorance, do your research and stop speaking on something you wasn't a part of.

@@negroantonio28 I get it… you’re mad because I called you out and you haven’t backed up a single thing you said with any proof. I don’t buy your ‘alternative’ facts.

Me too old school 🤣

..Agreed!..like Crazy legs,..But Chino did the better end!..Don't matter they all Rock!!!..Just watch the battle on the bus on the way to work...The Music pumps me up!.

I thought Pex and Ken Swift did they thing! Pex was "str8 to business" with his intro. And Ken Swift with the "hold that" freeze?? Omg!

Almost the entire trailer for the movie was deleted scenes

I have seen a snippet of this battle that had Mr. wave come from a different angle, and shows a few seconds prior to him doing that tick and quick turnaround. I think I saved it in my KZfaq library but that was shocking. It was definitely a directors cut.

Ken was and still is a legend...

@@louisokeefe8307 100 percent

I've met him and legs both great guys!!

check out a video called ``the freshest kids``

@@imback4more440 it doesn't say in there that breakin started in the bronx, I don't know I haven't watched it in awhile?

Too many variables! Remember, hip-hop didn't create anything of its own, instead it took from everything and made it its own. Every element of hip-hop exist outside of hip-hop. But the baby spades in the south bronx probably packaged it all together first.

check out Michael wayne tv.

The one's who do it now look more like gymnasts with all of the flairs, sick move but not the same as when we taught ourselves back then

@@justinbennitt835 Thanks Ken Swift is Legendary, A Cold Break Dancer

Prince Ken Swift. From RSC. I believe he left RSC after a fall out with Crazy Legs back in 2009 or 2010. Don't quote me tho.

@@rwarren4637 alot of bad things happen to members of the RSC

LIES. Kuriaki Legs and Swift dam near bodied them! People forget Legs went THREE times. Because NYC Breakers had 2 extra members. And if you count Lee corny azz - 3 extra members. So in essence it was like 8 on 5. Doze was useless in the battle. Furthermore, Frosty and Mr. Wiggles weren't present.😎

Facts Kuriyaki had the title of best breaker in NY in ‘84 or’85 I forget the year

It was style vs power moves.

Str8 trash!😂😂 weakest link!

@@rwarren4637 he can do something better than that
