I guess since this is British doc we have to live with shit like " Run-DMC from Palace, Queens kicking hip hop into new phase with success of Raising Hell in 1986." ... I don't know bout anyone else, but where I grew up 1985's "King of Rock" was HUGE and had already taken hip hop to the next level long before that cheesey Aerosmith "Walk This Way" bullshit took it to the masses
@target852 run dmc came out in 1983, beasty boys came out in 1986. Beasty boy's actually stole from run dmc, they were originally supposed to be a rock group.
@gold95 Wow. This wasn't long before he was killed. Breakin' was deadder than a Dodo in the U.S. when this was filmed. Little did the R.S.C. guys know that the renaissance was just getting underway over in Europe, with the first Battle of the year happening around this time, albeit with a different name.
