[djjenjoy]

[KARASCOUSIN]

[OMGmyFACE]

Debi Mazar? Man, thumbs up if you just came here to see some Graffiti Rock.

[hank1972]

This was a great show for its time... You can get to see the Evolution of the whigger. Man Kool Moe Dee looks funny now in comparison.

[FunkSoulBrother7]

word 3:23

[DevlinPDX]

LOL!!!! portland raver @ 3:10

[AvenueD417]

big ups to Debi Mazar, shes lookin good.



[TheRalphus666]

This reminds me when Charlie Murphy at the club with the jerry-curl..He was like people were wearing some of the craziest clothes,the episode where Rick James slaps him at the bar and that guy doin the robot

[dadoux56]

Just Dope

[DjDedan]

back then no REAL dancer would ever show their sick moves on TV - those are meant for the battle circles only... so you can't look at this show and tell how sick some of these kids are, a couple of the dancers on the show i know were and ARE sick... nowadays you got fools dancing all over the internet then complaining when people steal their moves lol...

[DjDedan]

click @1:07 for the best INTRO EVER! I mean how'd he do that!?!?!?!

[MSlilgangster89]

wow look at kool moe dee

[prophet60091]

[IHS7]

Thumbs up if you came to see real Hip Hop.

[Fakename70]

@IHS7

Early-to-mid '80's NYC="real Hip Hop".

[mg659er2]

Na I came to see my homegirl Chunky!

[MsJustinealexandra]

The 1980s were the time where real music was made. Breakdancing was done by real dancers. Graffiti was done by atists and who did'nt care about the police. The media had real stories to tell about.

[coolflex]

WOW!!! Classic!!!

[prlad85]

Oh My God! Is that an Intermilan Jersey on the right at 2:06?

[astralweeks88]

Vincent Gallo is also in this episode. He isn't featured in the opening segment, but later during the Run-D.M.C. performance you can see him in the background wearing white pants and a matching hat.

[HeavenlyHouse]

@astralweeks88 Prince Vince!

[Fakename70]

@astralweeks88

You're correct. He's actually "featured" in the intro to the RUN-D.M.C. segment and was also listed in the programme's closing credits as a Production Associate.

[keenanmtx]

:35, 2:36 Debi Mazar

[Cartel80]

This video are very cool. What is the name of the musik from 1:55

[kevzero11]

[sk321tm]

[DevlinPDX]

@phatdc 

[mosfet51]

Don't think I would admit that Fizzlepopproductions

[qrock639]

Love this clip...Michal Hoeman is the first annoying Hip-Hop video show host in history, ha ha!!

[sukidelic]

anybody know if the chick at 0:38 and 2:40 is Debi Mazar?

[nptrock]

@sukidelic Im sure it is her..and i love her New York accent!

[Mooremess]

Yeah at 0:37 that is Debi Mazar and again at 2:40.

[fistfulofeuros]

I remember when the show first came out we were thinking: "where did they find these dancers?!" really cheesy (even for back then) I think Michael Holman knew they wouldn't put his show on the air with real b-boys & girls from the city. Still classic :)

[Khultan]

@fistfulofeuros Ha ha ha! Where are you from? Coz you're lame like that, b.

[The0ryTag]

This is Terrible!

[therawproduct]

This is what happens when people just wanna get paid off of what u do... I am offended! The only good thing about this platform, was that it was a platform. At least this gave some of the greats some exposure...I am still offended tho!

[kprez007]

@therawproduct This show was ground breaking. There was nothing for the Hip Hop Culter in the 80's. RUN DMC, Kool Moe D. You have no clue. Go listen to lil wayne or something...

[mookeychase0907]

@therawproduct Yo I agree wit chu 100,this show first off all prob only had like 4 episodes but I dont get the "just wanna get paid off what you do" Yo The Treacherous 3 was legendary at this time Run & Dee was on their way to being the Kings of rap(they carried rap from 83-86) on one stage doin their thing. The styles was all hiphop the music the dancin this is all hiphop right here wasnt nuffin more serious then Graf-Roc what is this cat talkin bout?

[therawproduct]

@mookeychase0907 I /dig /what /u /saying....but /why /arent /the /real /breakdancers /in /the /studio /dancing ?.....its /all /POLITICAL

[mookeychase0907]

@therawproduct Yeah I hear you but you know how TV is everything is scripted.

[randomhenchmen]

so fresh! kool moe dee is the man, and that hosts horrible old school flow is so funny

they should bring this show back, fuck nick canons wilding out

[gregsalter]

According to IMDb, that IS Debi Mazar at 0:37 and again at 2:40.

[gregsalter]

Yeah, as soon as I saw the blonde, I thought Debi Mazar.

[iobyvehcxob]

is that Debi Mazar @ 0:37?

[rasredge]

Hip Hop Soul Train!

[rexboogie]

I remember when this came on TV. We all thought it was a new show. But it never came on again.

[SMSG100]

they have girls boots on. mc loves cock

and mc donut puncher

[kreepz86]

man this was the baddest shit back in the day!!! those moves at the time were the ultimate in breakin!

[crismoraes99]

heheheh. I think they´re the ultimate even in 2010.

[pedronavahas]

I'm the guy at 2:43....I had "bed-head" and smoked crack that day

[chialibrazil]

Gnarls Barkley: Run the same style of videoclip. City Vibing = Graffitti Rock. Is an imitation or a tribute to the program

[Dalvyn]

actually the show was created by the host mike holman.. and as far as i know no one really got rich the show didnt make it past the pilot but did air .. which was seen everywhere in the country in urban homes.. dis show and beat street and other commerical things is what let ppl know wat hip hop was till den it was mainly only in new york

[johnbourbon]

if you've never seen a breaker do a headspin, just check out this

[chialibrazil]

oldschool, man.

[animeMMA]

Yeah, get it son

[MarsNova]

Debbie Mazar has more hip-hop in her LITTLE FINGER than Stones Throw has in its entire catalogue.

[musicluvr35]

debbie mazar is cool. and being on dacing with the stars is cooler

[hurensohnsBruda]

this show was so commercial, but still important for the invasion of hiphop all other the globe

[rhettdec]

if that show was commercial i dont even know what you would consider todays hiphop. wait ya i do straight garbage.

[krakkajackson]

Is the blonde in the cap Debbie Mazaar?

[dosx78]

yes it is.

[JoBananas]

hahah yeah i just realized that... Debbie Mazaar could get it.

[pray4chicken]

damn looks like they got all the extras from beat street hahaha nice vid

[TechNoir87]

3:34 - trapped in the 80s haha

[ScratchMasterSPAZZ]

Man, I hope that dude at 3:34 finds his way out of that box he's trapped in......

[ScratchMasterSPAZZ]

What a great way to exploit a culture. You know some fat fucking white guy got rich off of this shit.

[borges01]

lol

[BK2dafullist]

PS.....Peace to RSC not NYC Breakers!!!!!!!

[BK2dafullist]

yo, let me tell you something, half of these people up in here, I would get caught dead hanging with back in the day. We use to rob these dumb fucks! Peace to all my zulus! of which none are in this show!

[ericcacaloca]

[dimviesel]

[jabbakabba23]

[IngialV]

Yeah and don't forget "frrrrrreshhh!"

[jabbakabba23]

its so cheesy but the nyc brekers are awesum

[elctrkbboyjunebug]

his name mr. motion

[candaceparkersbigfan]

dis show only had one episode no disrespect but no wonder i never heard of it before

[elctrkbboyjunebug]

If memory serves me correctly the show was only a pilot but I think it also had to do with the accidental death of one of the NYC BREAKERS

[trmble6]

no actually the death happend way after graffiti rock. The death was GLIDEMASTER...

[EZA757]

Nowawadays, people are trying to imitate the lifestyle, trends, and party themes of this era. I see it all the time passin through clubs, parties, even people who try to dress like it in general. It's retarded, you can't replicate the past fluently into today's culture. It's like putting a Ford Model T and comparing it with a Bugatti..

[mjship11]

@ 2:37 it's shauna from entourage.

[Bilonda]

Her name's Debi Mazar

[symonfenix]

WOW!! i cant beleve this is on youtube!! i didnt think ANYONE HAD THIS!! classic,timeless and too bad it didnt stay on long enuff.HIP-HOP SOUL TRAIN!!

[trmble6]

the glory days of hip-hop

[jonmmadison]

they must have known they only had one episode. they was cramming *mad* elements in this single episode, lol

[thanks250]

stupid fucking show that shit is old and the dj sucks a scratching! graffiti has rely nothing to do with hip hop the just got popular around the same time!

[finny144]

WOW this kid is STUPID!!

Do u even know what the FOUR elements of hip hop is??

Emceeing, Deejaying, breaking and GRAFFITI!!! stupid dumb motherfucker. bet ur those kind of people who only listens to the music. hip hop is not only based on music its based on Those 4 elements. stupid.

[thanks250]

u r a dumb fuck! I know what the 4 elements of hip hop r hell I even have turn tables u cock sucker! I know people who write graffiti and hate hip hop u jack ass! graffiti is its own thing u dumb shit!

[finny144]

You must be the dumbest motherfucker EVER!! having TURN TABLES DOESNT MEAN ANYTHING!!!!/// u KNOW people who does graffiti and hate hip hop but THAT DOESNT MEAN graffiti has NOTHING to do with hip hop. if u know what the four elements are.. then you should know that graffiti HAS something to do with hip hop

[thanks250]

u r right

[thanks250]

sorry

[Khultan]

@finny144  You're an idiot.

[finny144]

this has nothing to do with grafiti but BBOYing wouldnt been recognize if the dude who created this show didnt make it.Rock Steady Crew was recognized from that dudes club and NYC breakers aswell. he got tired aof rock steady crew always battling each other so he invited NYC breakers.

[thanks250]

sorry for being a dumb fucking shit head butt the show is sill fucking retarded.

[finny144]

well i cant disagree with that. this show IS stupid.

[jonmmadison]

i gotta applaud them for what they were trying to do at the time--give the world an idea of what hip hop was...the dj was definitely WACK though! tough to even listen.

jam master jay was killing his break though on their performance (watching it right now:)...you understand what a Real Professional DJ handles things.

the host is a bit annoying though. my favorite part was when ja girl was tapping him on the shoulder so he could announce the next track...mad corny!

[stillphil]

There was only ONE episode of this show . . .

I wonder if there is a "Graffiti Rock The LOST EPISODES!" floating around out there somewhere ???

[phoenixfade]

i saw my my mom..lol

[antiembishop07]

damn

Gave Transformers street cred.

[Tekka]

o_O

[Dablkwid0w2008]

If you wasnt a 70's or 80's baby...you missed it!

Damn those we're two good decades for Hip Hop

[yoandrew]

does anyone know what kind of glasses the host is wearing? the clear frame ones.

[GenomeSepRock1]

Gizel i think i didnt spell it right tho

[adamwillgo]

Cazals.

They're German. But you can still get em in NYC.

[MouseFX]

lol the dude at 2:45 :))))

[shaggyhatemetal]

la wea vieja hermano

[blueroses888]

I remember thie breifly being on the air. We thought it was so cool. And anybody who doesn't like it should realize that times change and the things that were cool then got us where we are today. I remember wanting to dress like the girls on this show.

[biggerflexible]

00:36 is that Debbie Mazar??? lolol

[mjship11]

it is.

[Fizzlepopproductions]

he got hooked on youtube and then thought of looking at this video then showed me him!!

[Fizzlepopproductions]

[svenkstjessica]

[RU79]

[jonnyroasta]

WHAAAA! THis is insane. What kind of opening lasts 3 minutes XD And that white guy at 2:43 is a total freak, man :D

[godanp]

LMAO!! i actually remember that white guy you're talking about. i just wanted to punch his face inLOL.

[jonnyroasta]

seriously, just looking at him more than once instils mad rage in me. The chick after the "WORD" part is like some kind of 80s zombie :O

[ETERNALLYHANDSOME]

I will give a little credit to Michael HOlman for bringing all the elements of Hip Hop together. The beats-breakers-Hip Hop artists-and Graffiti.

[FiswaT]

Man where can i get all the episodes??? lol

[maze70]

unfortunately, there was only this pilot episode. can you imagine the potential this show could have had! every week they could have had different bboy groups from all over the country. And different DJ and MC battles. Sad they never continued this show.

[noirnoticvibe]

Ahhhhhhhh when hip hop was pure.....and FRESHHHHHHHHH!!!!

[nice0frb]

That girl is Debi Mazar

looool

[avantdan]

yes! i just noticed that too! hilarious!

[OGCowboyck]

dam i haven't seen dis n a long time i was like 10 when dis came out

[troystew]

Yea the streets were empty this day! It's

f-ed up the show got cancelled but the kids on the show was straight off american bandstand lookin kids! And by the way this show aired a decade after the fouding of hip-hop this was in no way the beginning like somebody wrote.

[FunkyRob]

hah, Kool Moe Dee with the original "Stunner" shades.

[fatherfinesse]

Has anyone found footage of the battle between Run D.M.C. and the Treacherous Three which aired on Graffiti Rock?

[JohnnyFlorida2000]

Type in suckers mcs its on there, you have to watch the whole run dmc footage and the battle is the last 1 minute of the footage.

[Classikpunk1976]

I saw it. its pretty badass

[xerograde]

You can actually buy the dvd with the episode of that battle. Just google graffiti rock dvd.

[TheCoach718]

SUPER OLD SCHOOL...I'm from the BX, and when this episode aired, WHOLE BLOCKs were empty....everybody went upstairs to watch this...well, every self respecting B-Boy, B-Girl, MC, DJ, and Graph artist...

[chandiggy]

Yes indeed! I am from North Philly and everyone in the bricks was in the crib checking the show out. True Story.

[TheCoach718]

THIS IS THE GENESIS RIGHT HERE...HOW IT WAS IN THE BEGINNING....Brings back soooooooooo many memories...

[chandiggy]

Awe man this is brought back mad memories, wow I taped this and my brother stole my tape.  Thank you for posting yes indeed. Where can I get the whole tape at.

[chromeskull]

Jimmie Jaz' scratches are pretty horrible!

[pastel7]

he dont want to left pingerpronts on the record apparently

[KenTon1978]

Debi Mazar had a tight little breaker body back then. I always loved the lispe she spoke with. I like how people used be into hip hop and now they live the lives their parents always wished for. I guess with the rap that's out today, Hip Hop WAS just a fad. I sure do miss her.

[manabower]

profound statement there. Never thought about that. Cuz I never considered hiphop dead, just dead in the mainstream. It just went underground, but I dig what you're sayin

[clarkentttt]

ooooooooooolllllllddddd schoooooooooolllllllllll

[kashinatha]

I was the whiteboy in the back by the DJ with the painters cap on. Now I'm a oldschool hipster into yoga and the healing arts. I'm still loose like I was then though.

[chandiggy]

Look like you all were having a blast. At the time of this original airing I kept waiting and waiting for the show to come on the following weeks and it never did. Do you have a copy of this show?

[kashinatha]

Yeah, it never took off for some reason. And sorry, I don't have a copy. Peace.

[chandiggy]

Ok, well thank you for responding. Keep graffiti rocking!

[MobleSuitCondom]

I remember when Non Phixion and the arsonists were on here that was the best!!!!

[Shizzlacher]

Uh, jackass, this was taped in 1984. Non Phixion and the Arsonists didn't release any material until the late '90s, LONG after this series' ONE EPISODE had aired.

[jonmmadison]

lol you lyin or got the wrong show.

[funkberto]

Hip Hop NO ES JOYAS, PUTAS NI CARROS: Es lo q viste Man.

[bugstrut]

That girl played the coke-addled Nanny, in 'Goodfellas'.

[scottuk2007]

thats right, its real f*cking hip hop, 50cent got no style!

[simonfromsydney]

[zulukidd]

[j420weed]

[Philbisregin]
