@@davidnorthridge2929 I'm 49 I was in the uk breaking in the early 80s when the craze hit hard I was blown away when I saw movie called breakdance in us it called breaking wid turbo n ozone but.....BUT when I saw the battle wiv new your city breakers against the rock steady crew St the ROXY it was a rap!!!
The first time I ever heard of Double Trouble is when I watched Wild Style. Agreed, one of the best duos ever! To this day, nearly 25 years later, I still know at least 90% of these words.
I was in the Navy back then….I was stationed in Boston; this white dude on my ship( this dude is from Nebraska, like for real), who really wasn’t around black people growing up, ask me about learning about black culture……perfect timing!! Since this iconic movie was out, we decided to check out “Rocky Horror Picture Show “ and “Wild Style” in downtown Boston…..both movies were playing at the same theater….Boston,at that time, kind of hood-like, so a lot of poor white kids a came to see RHPS, and the poor black kids came to watch WS( it was obvious by the crowd)……. RHPS was shown only at midnight, so we saw that last……very weird stuff, and at 20 years old, being from NYC, I have seen worse….cool movie!! When he got to see WS, he was the only white guy in the theater!!! From start to finish, his eyes was glued to the screen, and was in shock on how New York City was in the late 70’s, early 80’s…….he asked hundreds of questions……I sincerely believe that after seeing WS, he was a different person……some movies have an impact on a person’s life: for my friend from Nebraska, he thought differently about what he thought about black culture, hip-hop and our NYC way of life……….for me, IT WAS ABOUT BEING PROUD OF BEING FROM NEW YORK CITY!!!!! That is my story and I am sticking to it……..
We are still in amazing times bro. Aesop Rock, El-P, Killer Mike, Atmosphere, Hopsin, Eminem, ... follow down the the rabbit hole. I promise this video in the 80s changed my life. I have stuck with this and I’m 50. Your here so you know. This was just the beginning. It’s beautiful. Ramellzee shaped me.
If the universe ain't got (doesn't have...I know, just shut it.) a sense of humor, then NO ONE does...I just commented on another Wild Style video & expressed THAT SAME EXACT SENTIMENT...just a LOT less perfectly summed up
Pretty amazing that the foundation of hip hop was started by young men/women and kids. I mean, for example, Rock Steady Crew were a bunch of teenagers and contributed huge to the development of hip hop. These guys all were true innovators. Today's rappers/producers need to pay their respect to the old school.
I saw this movie when it came out at Fourty Deuce, smoked weed and drank some Old E & Wild Irish Rose with my boy Chet..The Outlaw Artist* Boogie Down Bronx rocks!!!
I saw this on the " deuce" too.Was home on leave from the service.Me and my best friend Jeff ( R.I.P) drank a 40 of Olde " Bing" on the train ( #2) ride down and picked up 2 tall cans of Colt 45 and some hot dogs to watch the movie.I still remember it was a Friday late show.Crowd was hyped.I searched for that " Down by Law" beat for years!
Double Trouble was so musical, the lyrics were so clear! Takes me back to a good time, when hip hop was pure, we did it for the love of the art and the culture.
This isnt about how much gold you wear,etc etc etc etc ,this is pure raw rap.Need to get this on dvd or blu ray,havent seen it for so long and so pleased i was around when this first came out.
The footage towards the end with Crazy Legs is epic, i know that the kids today are amazing on another leve,l but that sequence when he went down into the swipes and that drag and then back into the swipes, I've seen quite a bit since 83 and to me no one has topped that combination its too pure!!
Crazy legs is the global president of the rock steady crew ....for life. That's just respect...😎 NYC breakers were better for the record.. But RSC innovated and put breakin in the front room on TV of kids like me back in the day . God mode engaged..
Dude… you hit the nail right on the head and I’ve always thought the exact same thing! His whole set was heLLa raw and caught me off guard when I first saw it. You know it was dope by the way cool guy in the black cap, white pants and glasses stomped his feet and clapped 👏 in the background at 4:48. 😂 I’ve always loved that top rock from Ken Swift too at 3:58. He did the same thing in that Beat Street Roxy battle. EpIC!
This brings me back to the days in the Boogie Down Bronx in the summer of 1974 when this track came out, and they performed this joint live, no albums, just raw talent, (And DEFINITELY No Auto-Tune) with these "Jake the Fake assed rappers of today"
I grew up in Strong Island NY the home of Rakim Chuck Dee from Public Enemy EPMD Dela Soul Freedie Foxx Keith Murray Craig Mack Prodigy from Moob Deep Biz Markie Grand Daddy IU Method Man Roc Marciano and countless others. When I see these classic Hip Hop scenes it still brings chills through my Hip Hop soul being I grew up during the Golden Era of Hip Hop and I witnessed the Park Jams and Block parties in my old hood New Cassell Westbury Long Island NY where Doctor Dre from Yo MTV Raps was also from so I seen Hip Hop I'm it's infancy and purest form traveling to clubs and parties all over Strong Island and the Five Boros. NY was and always will be the Mecca of Hip Hop and that's facts. Salute to Double Trouble and the Rock Steady Crew cats who made me want to rap and be a B Boy.
There's nothing like a good 2 man(woman) crew.K.K Rockwell and Rodney Cee are up there with the best because of their rhymes and their timing as well as their showmanship.
Classic Hip Hop here! 1982, New York City! Although I'm not from New York, I was about 9 years old when this debut in theaters. Every rapper should be required to watch this movie, particularly this scene here! Man, Hip Hop!✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿. Salute to all the MC'S DJ's AND BREAKERS !
It's interesting you mention hip-hop outside of NYC in '82. Our pops passed a couple days after new years in '82 and so his/our family thought it would be a good idea to pitch in and fly us all from the south Bronx to east l.a. It was a different world! Our own family didn't know what to make of us. They were not hip-hop friendly. We went back in 86' and they loved us all of sudden.
Down by law the very best rapped song ever. When I was 17 I've had it on a cassette and played it in my very big ghetto blaster dancing on the streets 😎
Miami 808 He showed the true definition of “wild style” with that flow. Shockdell was a nice complement as well. That 12ga. shottie was iLL! DST rocked the hell out of that beat on the TT’s...
This blew me away when I saw it in 83. Proper hip hop. Been breakin to this since then. A true movement that shaped the World. Changed me for the better. Ken Swift in this vid is awesome, as are all the originator BBoys.
It blew me away too😁This was a real hip hop movie😁Nothing like those corny hip hop "Breakin" movies with the main character called "Lee" looking like "Curious George"😂😂😂 My favorite scene in Wild style was the scene where Grand Master Flash on the 1 and 2's cutting it up in his kitchen😁
There are still Emcees making a living of it. As far as what's now become the new mainstream, the blueprint to what you're currently hearing is an accumulation of what the previous generations of Hip Hop, plus Hip Hop/R&B artists were experimenting with many years ago.
Many of my Hip hop heroes on 1 stage RIP Ramellzee . One of my 1st DJ heroes Grand mixer DST . I never knew what. he was doing was possible till this movies that Good times back spin is LEGENDARY . Salute to BBoy heroes on stage The RSC & Double Trouble for the Life of me don’t know why they never recorded & album . The chemistry & showmanship was EPIC .
Look at Ken Swifts footwork and flavor……I could care less about all the big, acrobatic power moves when it comes to breaking, i want me some of this! Great stuff
Ladies and Gentleman... the Worlds first "Dab" at 4:49. Slow it down to 0.5 and check the dude in all black standing next to the guy in white pants and the black jacket/hat. LoL!

I got a compliment from one of the Double Trouble at Oldschool show at Hollywood athletic club a while back for my dancin I was floored!!! such down to earth brothers!!! I said “ I know who you are” he said I know you I seen you rockin the floor!”
Rammelzee was soooo much ahead of his time, his rappin is just outstanding. Does anybody know where to find the Full Long Version of the Rammellzee Gig?
RUN-DMC bit Double Trouble's style HARD!!!!Actually those Queens boys bit ALL their style from The Bronx,from their hats & sweatsuits right down to their shelltoes!ALL Bronx style long before RUN-DMC became popular!
Stop with the foolishness yes the Bronx is the Mecca of Hip Hop but all of NY was dressing like that back in the late 70s and the 80s. Im from Strong Island Ny 💪 the home of Rakim Public Enemy EPMD Dela Soul Freedie Foxx Biz Markie Grand Daddy IU Leaders of the New School Keith Murray K Solo and even on the ghetto suburbs of Long Island we were dressing like that And Queens like all parts of NY got it's influence from the Boogie Down Bronx when it came to Hio Hip but stop with the foolishness that all of Queens got it Style from the Bronx because as dope as these Hip Hop God father's like Double Trouble were Queens like Strong Island took Hip Hop to another level with all the Iconic acts they spit out In my estimation Queens and Long Island have spit out some of the most ionic acts during the Golden Era of Hip Hop . But we do owe the Bronx for this thing I grew up loving on Strong Island Ny 💪 called Hip Hop. But stop with the foolishness of comparing Double Trouble with the ground breaking ionic group Run DMC who are the Kings from Queens and got a Endorsment deal with Adidas and we're first rap video on MTV.
Double Trouble!!! Showmanship, stage presence, and mad lyrics....Do y'all hear the clarity in the vocals? No mumbling!!
patrick y That’s what I noticed too. Them bros. was fly!
ABSOLUTELY! Their routine is 8 mins on the soundtrack. Nobody freaked Down By Law like those brothers!

It's a foundational black American culture created by black American's all this rock steady stuff came later on in the 80s .
