  • I was in StreetScape. This clip is from 1984 on The Don Harron Show. The members were Wayne "The Saint" Headley, Colin "Steamboat" Bloudoff (the white guy!), Paul "Ripple" Lewis, Bradley "Breakin' Brad" Rapier (as I was known at the time) and the legendary Boogaloo Sam Solomon who danced with us for a few months in that year. Thanks for posting, an honor to be compared to the pioneering Lockers:)

  • @shooz62 Thanks for being a part of StreetScape.

  • That white dude is a black guy in disguise.

  • The lockers a clear win

  • This was an audition for the McDonald's Hamburglar part in a McDonald's Commercial.

  • this is two clips from two different eras......there is no clear winner because poping and breaking didnt exist prevalently in the early 70's......and the clip from street scape is from the mid 80's.....know your culture....im 24 and i know this SMH.......SMH=Shaking My Head for you older cats haha

  • @TheSdfadfdsf You are the only one that is confused. Its obvious that if this was an actual battle then both groups would have been on the stage at the same time. SMH at you over analyzing a obviously chopped up video.

  • Street scape Won clearly... the lockers did the same tired moves every time it was their turn. Streetscape did different moves thru out the battle... combining Locking-Poppin-and breakdance. The lockers did the same moves... the white kid kicked ass ...... maybe the lockers needed RERUN on their side ...., who knows

  • @SamWhitemoon1 Yez that 'locking-poppin' combination iz called Electric boogaloo. Also those 'same trired moves' the Lockers are performing is called Locking. As for the anglo, he was one of only a handfull to be accepted into american-African FunK culture durnin' the 80's. Rerun was on there team once but only in "What's Happening".

  • @FunkMasterRio you need to check your facts. Electric boogaloo is most definitely not a combination of locking and popping, its a combination of Popping (Pops/hits that course through you like a shock-electric) and boogaloo. There is some electric boogaloo but this video has a lot more STRUTTING than EB style. As for rerun, he was definitely a member of the lockers except he was known as Mr. Penguin, not re-run, when he wasnt on Whats happening

  • Comment removed

  • Sick on both sides

  • It was definitely late 1979/early 1980 poppinpete.

  • the street scape clip is from around 1985 its from a tv show in canada

  • The Lockers won this one. They were more fluid in their routines and they appeared to be naturals. These guys were okay but they could not match the Lockers.

  • That "Street Scape" routine aired on a primetime variety show down here in the US around 1979 or 1980 and the group was billed as "The Minstrels"

  • what is the song being played? Gotta get this on the ipod for the gym

  • @bassist4life1234 Herbie Hancock - Ready or Not

  • sorry people that isnt the electric boogaloos, if it is where in the heck am I? this is the real popin pete, that a group out of calgary canada called STREETSCAPE that boogaloo sam went and did shows with.

  • @poppingpete Thanks for the correction Pete it is definitely needed as well as appreciated.

  • I'd give it to the Locker's in a close one

  • OH SHIT!!! The white dude can dance!!!!! WTF is that possible?!?!?!

  • @whywhykk Hes not the only white dude that can do it up like that..whywhy.....;) lol

  • @whywhykk He was getting down and had the showmanship to match.

  • is that a white man?

  • what year is this from?

  • @cyclops1092 I have no idea.

  • @unspokenrespect incredible moves for the time frame, thanks for the upload!

  • @cyclops1092 thank you

  • @cyclops1092 70's 80's

  • Wow this is classic. This take me back to the early 80's

  • THIS IS THE REAL!!!!!!

  • no actually the east coast version of this is called step or gq. from the magazine g.q. (gee cue) steppin. we used to gq on the east coast in 72 to 76-79 on dance floors. it was a little more sophisticated than the cali style but cali influenced it. it is also the foot work for the funky chicken and roller skate disco boogie. which was also big on the east coast back in philly ny nj bmore and other places.

  • kick walk, scuba, which-way, kick , funky gutair, wrist rolls, points, half splits, stop n go, pimp walk, pose, knee drops, and rocksteay. these are straight lockin moves. theirs more i forget some of the moves name.

  • this is sick and clean but i didnt expect the boogaloos to do so much lockin

  • Man, those were the days..everyone danced! Black, white, brown, boy, girl, there was mostly just good vibes and even better music!

  • Poppin n uprock

  • Lockers is West Coast 70s and Electric Boogaloo is East Coast 80s right????

  • @Nanadsyl lockin and poppin comes from the westcoast, they come from the same time period. they came from the 70s

  • @23furtado I agree west coast did lockin poppin and electric Boogaloo in the 70s before hip hop New York in the late 70s early 80s adopted their moves.

  • Wess the name of the song and who sings it?

  • @KingKFleezie Herbie Hancock - Ready or Not

  • @JL0vely It was Deney Terrio, who later danced with the Lockers. The dance was invented by Don Campbell. Toni Basil, who was his girlfriend at the time, and he created the group the Lockers. Don used to dance on Soul Train, actually, most of the Black dancers who were with the Lockers, were brought in by Don! Another was Fred Perry, Shabba-Doo, etc, I remember seeing them as Soul Train dancers.

  • locking and popping

  • brings back happy ,e,pies emy youth-like when I didn't creek when I danc,e.

    the lockers had more intricate moves. like the difference between a white belt and a black belt.

  • brings back happy ,e,pies emy youth-like when I didn't creek when I danc,

  • BTW the guys in the maroon outfits aren't Electric Boogaloos, they do have Boogalo Sam from that group, but these guys are called Street Scape, even says in the background
