[Suckerman12]

Man I miss these days. Everything is all screwed up with hip hop now. Once big money got involved, it became mafia-like.

[500PUMP]

GREAT BATTLE 500

[cellmass08]

[3rdseries]

U must be a youngsta...BIIIITCH get tha fuck out of here

[RoganR]

These were the days. Hip Hop was a vibe, feeling a way of life...it was serious. Hate what it has turned into.

[bdavies75]

thy

[LoukAdz]

man i wish i was alive to experience it all in its original spendor. almost brings a tear to my eye that something i hold so dear to me has been thrashed by the mainstream and overtaken by the soulja boys of today. hip hop was real ima start havin sessions in public till the batteries run out of my boom box. recapture the vibe!!!!!

[balisticsniper22]

[10TAOsend]

YEAH, back to the Rootz...

[Kawa12er]

mein gott ich war nicht mal 10 als ich den film anschaute

ich habe mir sogar die graffitiys per standbild herauskopiert und in der schule immer nachgezeichet wenn mir langweilig war lach*

[t0pm0delchic76]

This is what I wanna see again! going to a club with a guy and actually going to dance,instead of posting up on the wall looking mean!

[t0pm0delchic76]

I thought Lee was soooooooo cute!

[qwertyfredqwertyfred]

classic part of the film best bit was taking trainers off at the end but then again i used to take my tracksuit top of during a handspin ah those where the days

[BACARDI365]

I would serve all of them . I would do the robot ! lol

[Gr1Ng00]

[jordisoto1]

Aun me emociono al ver este video, con esta pelicula me inicie en el Break Dance, ya tengo 40 años, pero siempre sentiré esta cultura en mi corazón. Viva el Hip Hop & Old School !

[jodaky]

breakdancin's where it's at

[baddacoodoo]

i watched this movie when it first come out in i think 1984 i was 15 i can remember buck 4 doing that turtle.. man that was seriously quick in those days.. kuriaki did a back to back windmill without his head touching the ground that was fucking hard too i tried for months to perfect that... those were the days

[kurds869]

look this :)

[Raphoufoune]

The second guy of the Beat Street crew (New York City Breakers if I'm not wrong) is simply amazing. Awesome movie, fucking classic

[GoTransit]

Mr Wave!!! FTW

[wizeyez4ever]

this is hip hop at its triggering scream, inviting all new born consciousness to take part.they battled with intergrity answering with heightened energy. i love their long suffering.

[early90slova]

at the beginnin, the two of the blue members are buck 4 and kuriaki(R.I.P)they appear after that page that says "beat street the battle" fades away

[ac3ofspad35]

[meloraxnatsume]

[BizzyIzzy90]

the saddest people not to witness all this great era of graffiti and breakin was europe england. WELL i had the honour of experiencing it in 82 on my first vacation new york. oh man it was awesome and u just had to be their. in england it didnt cum out till 83 and not for long. in new york graff and breakin was till in th 70's WOW.. anyway end of the best era new york had in my opinion. wish i could go back right now,, lol

[scaryleary]

OK you breakdance slags..

"Lisa fisher" "only love(shadows)"

pm me for the link..

[ZOBONDO]

[ZOBONDO]

mattyiga tries much to get this song so its called only love i was trying shadows of the night!! lol,., please could u send me the link

[mattylga]

it should be on limewire. Just type in the artists name (lisa fisher) and the song name (only love). P.S try to download the extended version if you can find it. If worst comes to worst, I'll just email it to you.

[ZOBONDO]

mattyiga its not on limewire at all!!! i checked and nothing there!!!!

nothing on only love!! u sure thats the name of the song!!!???

[LoukAdz]

the name of the song is Aurthur Baker - Breakers Revenge. go forth and use it wisely!!! lol

[italianoval]

loukadz, yeah the old days 82/83 for me was the greatest time for me the graffiti trains was the limlight for me as well as the breakin.. tell me u dont know what happened to robert taylor the guy who played LEE in this movie?? i heard someone on here said he messed himself up on crack?? i dont know

[LoukAdz]

italianoval, man thats terrible to hear. hope he pulls through. evil shit. man i love graffiti ive been involved in my neck of the woods for 8 years and get a mad rush from the steel giants so to speak.( i think youd know what i mean!) and been a bboy for a while now aswell but sadly nowadays everyone wants to be a "Mcdonalds advertisement" breaker instead of buskin on some lino with your best mates. anyway bro keep the memories alive!

[scaryleary]

gangster rap.. my fuckin ass..

do you see any bling, hot chicks or bentleys??? do you mother fuckers..!!

No this is the real shit, fuck today..80's 4eva..

I see this and wanna cry for the old dayz..outta here, wheres me beer.. peace to them who were there.

[Jay1898]

u know dat scaryleary, totally agree with u. the breaking days were the best days of my life. it was so phenomenal to see the moves, the graffiti that came from nyc. it was fantastic and u had all colours and creeds coming together. when gangsta crap came out then it all went wrong and a lot of guys ended up doing drugs and shit. breaking kept everyone together and free from drugs.

[jalvarado297]

What is the name of that song?

[64835]

FAT LACE PUMAS

[nasa72]

Ah the 80's. We used to walk the streets in our tracksuits, carrying card boards and our gheto blasters looking for a challange. Damn..those were the days. This is my ultimate break tune!!!

[baddacoodoo]

wow crazy legs .. i danced against him in 1983 we were the electro beatz from bristol we got down at a club called the granary and if i remember rightly a group called the wild bunch were jamming at the time who then went on to create the band massive attack...fuk me they were the days..!!

[surzen]

I appreciate your response Mattylga. I know "Breakers Revenge", and this is not the tune. Breakers Revenge was dubbed onto the footage after, but what I saw was the track they actually danced to "live".

[surzen]

I once saw a clip of this battle many years ago, with the Rock Steady Crew and NYC Breakers dancing to another tune in the club. Does anybody know of this clip, or what the track was?

[mattylga]

to suzen, the song your refering to is called breakers revenge (beat street soundtrack)

[AikiNinja1]

This seen & the battle in the subway was classic style of the 80's of where ever I see you & when ever I see you its on!!!

[StyleofNoStyle]

This is real hip hop right here!!!!!!!!!!!!

[YFNFProd]

yo did any one else notice that Chino from the New York City Breakers was featured in Pretty in Pink .. he tags the chalk boards and the lockers and is seen throughout the school talkin about a battle

he's also in Breakfast Club and a couple other movies .. from the 80's

[YFNFProd]

u and the rest of the lonely fags that put shit like that up need 2 cut the shit

it's jsut anoying as fuck 2 see this like 30 tiems on each video

[l34052]

Ive got a complete collection of Electro 1-10 on vinyl and this has to one of the best breaking songs ever made. Electro 5 is the absolute highlight of the collection without any doubt.

[baddacoodoo]

this song is arthur baker and its called breakers revenge find it on electro 5

[tarklife]

MAN WHERE CAN I FIND THE SAME PUMA TRACK PANTS OF THE RED DANCERS on the right pls send me a message when u now it to playerpurat.gmx.....

[greenthumb4200]

6,9,3 step, windmills hold'n the dick, turtles, swipes, kness swipes, classic indian step,back spins, dope broncos, dope burns,dope style, dope footwork, every bboy gotta see this shit and learn. you can also see a lot of this style has influenced born.

[AmbushP]

i wonder what they would have thought if physics was there and did his elbow spin,,,hehe i think they would have given up..

[YFNFProd]

it's not an "elbow spin"

it's actually called "table top" or "jack hameer"

table top involves one or both hands after momentum is gained and maintained

and jack hammer is table top but with an added bounce every turn

[roctiger]

1984 wen shit was real, and red & blue only stood 4 dance crews, not gang whimpy bullshit.

[ugiwuleogelar]

see how a hot chick loses a bet and has to strip in front of her classmates <b>(_stripAss.com_)<b>

[BigRickSharpe]

To my homies in NY Godbless ya Baaby! Back in the day I said it then needs ta see a chiropractor, really I want to say wahts up dogg Michael Williams your Bro Rick from 1/7th FA 1976 hope your not a crackhead homie! want ta see NY again someday, watch them Arabs!

[G3n3r4t0r1111]

sheer class and 23 years ago WTF. Breakers i seen in vids from recent Music videos are shit compared to these guys.  Pro's

[Jay1898]

Yo G3n3r4t0r1111 you know dat bro. dese guys are the business. i have noticed that the guys today their footwork is shit - if u check other vids both rsc and nyc have top, top footwork. but in addition to that u cant buy class and these guys have it in abundance. their execution of the moves is phenomenal - and this was 23 years ago!. u just cant buy this shit - no amount of money can. its just top quality.

[G3n3r4t0r1111]

agreed mate :-D

[luisenriquenevarez]

es la mejor sesion de breakdance de todos los tiempos y la mejor cancion en la historia del hip hop...juntos !nada lo supera!

[gskeme]

This has got to be the best battle ever filmed. I prefer the old school b-boying to the new school. I just find the new school are a bit too messy and focus more on gym stlye acrobatics.

[early90slova]

agree!

[ant1sa]

masters

[AmbushP]

whats the song at start.. shadows of the night? ARTIST AND TITLE IF U KNOW PLS.

[dhsmith]

yo did u ever fin da name of the artist

[AmbushP]

no cant work it out.. i think its called ONLY LOVE though.

[baddacoodoo]

arthur baker on electro 5 album or beat street sound track...top tune boy

[crwnikeboy]

actually i remember seeing him in a few videos where he was breakdancing pretty good.

[crwnikeboy]

anyone else notice the blooper? when lee starts his breakdance he has on a kneepad. when he spins it's gone.....great video, brings back memories

[Jay1898]

yeah he was just an actor - he wasnt in nyc breakers. they probably had to do a few retakes to make him look good.

[Wrxrtd]

Sick shit. Most other clips of this on Youtube only start off from when the breaking begins. Not from when NY City Breakers walk in and they meet and face off in the middle of the floor.

[elitemook]

re: jover 98 > This Could Be The Night - Cindy Mizelle is the track...to the blind c*nts da east coast owned the battle..come back when u got some pubes/education and hairs on ur chest lmao

[KillerDeadXero]

breakdance classic huh? thats preatty cool, but now things have changed, it's done, hip hop is dead and now back from the undergrounds. more "modern" thats what id say. I need money and I just graduated, no job good for a bboy.

[efFd4SniTcH]

fav movie of all time...

[rozzen]

Man I used to break to this eveyday.

[dervogelfanger]

That song is hard as fuck.

[RichYungRockstar]

This is a classic right here....I was only 2 years old in 84 but I do remember seeing this movie when I was very young. This is hip hop.

[jorver98]

[rassmal]

[DjBandero]

[drtyharry5]

[style8d]

this was back in the day man ol'skool my friend different style these days and the b boys today wouldn't be anywhere if it wasn't for the pioneers, that goes for the music,dance and the art sho a little respect and keep the faith,style8d DST

[early90slova]

true! agree wit u 100% my brother, today's rappers and the thing they call "rap" is nothin compared to this movie. this is holy, today who's gonna breakdance like that? they are full of bs

[style8d]

hi early' im sure this song is called "Breakers Revenge" by Arthur Baker but dont quote me and how hard are they two legged swipes to do m8 one legged easy two legged def

[jason4004]

I watched this video a hundred times and new all the words, now 34 with 2 kids and unable to do any of the moves I once could it just makes me wonder what happened to Turbo et all.

[jessesalinas2007]

these were the good old days.we used to do all the moves.

[lilmcdaddy]

This is the shit, but when it comes to breaking movies breakin' is the best and TURBO is the epitamy of all breakdance!

[luisenriquenevarez]

yes, turbo is great

[jwhtheman]

Which on is Glide Master?

[ENGLISHBORN007]

`WHAT YALL KNOW ABOUT CRAZY LEGS?....

[storm1580]

when breakin was good now days everyone just does air flairs over and over again

[drilldreams]

thats not true. you only see that because the mainstream public doesn't understand what foundation is.

[MELZ275REP]

the meanest video of all times

[MELZ275REP]

the meanest video ever, this video is the reason I luv hip hop

[luisenriquenevarez]

me too

[DawgcityClev]

New York City Breakers vs Rock Steady. Greatest battle ever filmed. But NO ONE can out poplock Turbo

[TR0jAX]

That´s real hip hop , Breakdance, Electric Boogie, Graffiti. Fuck the wannabe gangster weed smokin idiots, who can´t do shit, and don´t know what real hip hop is about ! Fuck the industry, and the money makin non creative fools.

[style8d]

damn right

[selly2005]

breakin is much better than beat street

[Jay1898]

ur kidding aren't you or on drugs or both!. breaking was super wack shit. beat street was and still is the real deal....not artificial manufactured bullshit....rsc vs nyc is the best battle ever filmed. end of story.

[Jay1898]

last post was in response to some dickhead stating that breaking was better than beat street!. deluded fool!.

[early90slova]

breakin is a piece of crap!! i agree wit u, i mean just because it came before beat street, dont mean its better. breakin focuses more on lockin, disco, and punk which is more 80's style. not enuff breakdancin! beat street is better than any breakdance movie. and classics never die

[whathappened2001]

brings back memories when I used to break dance. wow.

I used to watch this all the time and learnt some moves from it. those years are go now. wow.

[miketribute1]

memories!!!

not the same anymore

breakins just gymnastics now

not at all street

[carlosbecerra22]

I remember this scene was really taking off around 84 and by 87 when NWA came out with "Boyz n Tha Hood" I could see things were going to change rapidly. Freestyle and Electro were out and Gangsta gained popularity. Basically Gangsta did to Breaking what Nirvana did to Hair Bands.

[tnodd]

NWA came out with Boyz n Tha Hood in 87? You are wrong on so many levels with thst comment. How old were you in 87 ?

[boozeee]

Boy was released twice. In 1987 on the "N.W.A. and the Posse" album and then on the SOC album as a remix.

[thekidfromkali]

wut has hip hop come to nowadys?sad to say but its dead..this video is soo classic and probably my favorite movie ever this is some pioneer shit!

jason

[cassiobadboy]

Iunno if I'm way off but, at 4:00 mins, doesn't that guy's moves remind you of David "Elswhere" Bernal??

[Holyfiremikey]

Wow, that was when footwork was really footwork. I barely ever see anyone still rock mad footwork like that

[NJJ]
