I'm from Tijuana Mexico and yes!!!! Beat Street brought Hip-hop to the forefront of the world, it brought... 1. A new dance 2. DJ scartching, mixing, blending etc.. 3. MC presence 4. bombing(artistic graffiti) 5. cool-hip wardrobe. THIS HIP-HOP CULTURE GAVE EVERYONE A CHANCE TO BE PART OF SOMETHING FUN AND POSITIVE.
@@BeinformedBefreethe storytelling, music, art, dancing was not all black. It was a collective expression of artists from impoverished communities who came together in unity and expression. Sadly derivatives of the culture then segregated race, colour and culture
@legoman911 It's an extension of Black Culture. It had nothing to do with being impoverished. The Dance is Black...music Black...it's a culture creates by Black people for black people. Others liked it. That simple
Ich erinnere mich noch an den Moment, als ich mit 14 ins Kino ging. Beat Street war gerade in unserem Kino in der DDR angelaufen. Dann wurde der Saal dunkel. Der Sternenhimmel war zu sehen und das drehende O ... und dann zum erstenmal hör ich diese Musik ... ich war dermaßen geflasht und dachte mir, was zur Hölle ist das für ein geiler Sound ... Ich hab den Film damals innerhalb eines Monats 24x angesehen. Grandios ❤
Wow...Brings back Memories....Used to Work at McDonalds...n the Music is the MOST Inspired...when it's Played....(Being Street kids at the time...90's...where MUSIC is our SOUL....to keep it Going Daily...)..
Oh my days, this brings the absolute BEST DAYS OF MY LIFE,back 53now and I can still break the way I use to ,walking about chorlton, wythinton rolled up lino ghetto blaster wish a cud go back
I remember my parents showing me this as a you g kid (im a 98 baby lol) and just being so fascinated with this scene and now being an adult i fell in love with the familiar being a florida kid and my parents making us spend every non school day damn near in nyc this was our family bbqs and parties and the dancing was so authentic to me still the roxy battle is the best dance scene in movie history
My mother took me to watch this movie as a kid growing up in 1984 at Hoyts Cinemas Townhall Sydney Australia at the time I was going to church as it says in the Bible God Done graffiti it inspired me And every think about this movie it's absolute classic I don't know why??? but most definitely made Beat Street 2 it would've been timeless like this one and last forever 💙
As a fellow Australian born after this movie, it’s awesome to hear that this got a theatrical release here in Sydney! A classic movie that my older brother put me onto who was also in the breaking scene. Thank you for sharing your experience!
I went to the Roxy the Funhouses Roseland in 1983 to check out the moves . We danced we danced our asses off broke with no money in our pockets but the DJ was our friends . JELLYBEAN the Mexican was a go to for me. FRESH CITY BREAKERS. thank you Rockers what great times

I don't know how much you know about the origins of hip hop, but the best movie by far is Wild Style it was released in 1983 one year before Beat Street
Glad I grew up in this era!!!! This was definitely my childhood

You forgot to mention Hip Hop culture is a black American cultural creation. #FBA #ProtectTheCulture

@legoman911 It was and is all black. Other people joined in later. But make no mistake it's Black Culture. It doesn't matter who does it

You completely wrong
It's a mix of cultures@@BeinformedBefree
Man I am ever so glad I was a part of this era,I'm 58 now and I still love the oldschool and always will 🙏🏽☯️🙏🏽
I was part of this era too, I'm 57 years old.
This is a great under rated movie
+SLIP NORRIS Not under rated, just 31 years old
yeah like the godfather
+SLIP NORRIS lol
With all due respect. . . but I always felt like Lee had a little look a like to Kobe Bryant.
@@jsaktube tell him...everybody was on this movie back in the day. lol Wasn't ever underrated.

WHEN DJ'S MIXED WITH RECORDS NOT COMPUTERS
Don't be a slave to no computer!
Yep.. I still slice record since 1984 there ain't nothing better anybody that says computers are way better to use are fooling themselves
*SONG USING EXCLUSIVELY DRUM COMPUTERS STARTS*
and no auto-tune
In about 40 years time from now, someone else will be shaking their heads and commenting "When DJ's mixed with computers and not AI" 😀
EQ maxed, EQ defeated, output is redlining, and he's using the headphone volume as a fader.
No matter how fake it is I still love this scene.
😂😂😂 I never noticed it
IT'S WORKING! IT'S WORKING!
I remember my parents showing me this as a you g kid (im a 98 baby lol) and just being so fascinated with this scene and now being an adult i fell in love with the familiar being a florida kid and my parents making us spend every non school day damn near in nyc this was our family bbqs and parties and the dancing was so authentic to me still the roxy battle is the best dance scene in movie history
84 -86 the best years of my life
Good memories of all my homeboys from Mexicali.,Mexico. And from Reno Nv.

Awesome, I was getting sick of HD. lol. 2:13 Is this an actual song? Anybody know the name of it?
Looking for the perfect beat by Africa Bambaataa
When Hip-Hop was broke but had raw talent and original style. Now it’s rich with no talent and unoriginal. Miss these days! (Except for Spit)
No nudity, no twerking, no stripping, no violence, no drugs and alcohol. Just people enjoying the music and dancing and most of all being happy.
Actually there was some violence. Just saying. 😅
@@ashleythomas5378 Nobody got hurt. Violence is when there's a fight and someone gets hurt. Just saying 👍
@@RLTee-tw7zv Ramon died chasing Spit
Anyone knows the song that starts at 2:20? thx!
“looking for the perfect beat”, Afrika Bambaataa & Soul Sonic Force, from the B side most likely.
@@johnd1466 thx
@@johnd1466 thx!

He will understand what I am talking about.....LMFAO BIG BRO!
I used to come in every party just like Lee did.
Wild Style by far is the best movie on the history of Hip Hop because it features the pioneers of bboyin', grafitti, DJin' and MCin'
credit to the directors, camera guys and djs that put the music together.
Best era ever
today you not working backwards using a computer. I cannot imagine playing without mine. Hip Hop outlived the short sighted studio Orion.
Le deben un Oscar a esta película.
zipper was up, zipper was down... in the dance at the end
RAMO!!
2:04 doug e. fresh in the building!
Reminds me of the oldschool when we first started
