That was in 1983, Dynamic Breakers were actually from Jamaica, Queens (Flip, Spider, Kano, Airborne…only Duece was Jersey). We all went to the same high school (Hillcrest).
no u didnt
why comment on youtube
@@soloist9495 …you’re gonna tell me when and where I graduated from and where I lived & what friends I had? Your grammar says a lot about you in the contrary. This a YT video, where do you want me to comment on?
You are a joke!
they were from woodside, stone city, Lenny, Nelson
I went to JHS with Ritchie & Alex Contreras. Van Wyck JHS 144th street on top of the Hill and behind the JHS was PS 82.
That’s right Hillcrest high was full of sword swallowers
Best thing back then was that everybody could do something to some extent. Those who couldn't do the meta always had something unique-ish. Good times.
This was a fantastic video. Taking it back to the originals. Even Ozone and Turbo chimed in. Awesome 😎 RIP Ozone 🙏🕊️💔🙏🕊️💔🙏🕊️💔
Happy you enjoyed, this was in my brothers VHS Tape. My Brother was Louie Newave, from the LES. He was a popper, and member of Dynamic Rockers. He Passed at the age of 32, in 1998.
@@mtandiz I'm sorry to hear of Louie's passing. RIP 🙏🙏🙏🕊️ He obviously loved breakdancing. 🙏
@@donjaun540 thank you, & yes, he loved Breakdancing, this is an 8mm video he did, when he travelled with Dynamic Rockers, to Australia in 1984, to do a TV show appearance. Do you recognize anyone? They were mostly from Quenns NYC, my Brother was the only one from manhattan, The LES: th-cam.com/video/Ja68bqSom_8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=nvzj_8qpMRO5XV5w
In the The Dynamic Rockers biography it says: "Dynamic won 1st place in the contest. The grand prize was supposed to be a role in Harry Belafonte’s upcoming film, “Beat Street“, however, they never appeared in the film due to a financial dispute between their management and the film’s producers." WOW!!!
Worst management decision ever! People in that movie, toured the world.
Wow! I remember this when it came on. 92 KTU wasn't playing Hip Hop (Mostly Freestyle songs), but Carlos DeJesus always repped Hip Hop for them on shows like this and New York Hot Tracks. Thank you for the memories.💯
You’re welcomed
Bobby had to have one and Little Willie tooo 😂😂😂 This was such a pleasant blast from the past! (1984 baby)
Great to hear
Thanks a lot 4 upload this video. In Austria we could not see this things back in the 80s🤟
And damn i dont know why but i want a Burger now🍔😅
You’re welcomed
Break dancing is now a Olympic sport.
Breaking is olympic discipline, not breakdancing. It's not the same. There won't be electric boogie/popping at the Olympics
Thank you for capturing Black history....my childhood (I'm a 1976 baby).
No one calling each other "N*gga", because it wasn't popularized. It was used amongst us....but, it wasn't glorified or popularized. Latinos were NOT using that word, unless it was derogatory. No "gangsta/drug-glorified/street-glorified" music culture, either.
Oh my god---HOT TRACKS!! We used to watch Hot Tracks, every Friday night...because we didn't have cable, or MTV. We alternated between "Hot Tracks" and "Friday Night Videos", on NBC. "Friday Night Videos" were for the millions of other Americans (mostly Caucasian), who didn't have cable tv. "Hot Tracks" w/ Carlos DeJesus included a majority of music videos from Black Artists who didn't receive enough national exposure.
I can proudly say I remember this era, vividly. However, by the time we hit 1983/1984....our culture began to blow up and the vultures stepped-in; to exploit our movement. This video is documenting the era of explosion. But, rewind to the film footage of the late 1970's. THAT's when the Hip-Hop movement was still underground and fermenting....waiting to be captured.
Harlem (pre-gentrified, crime-ridden and run-down buildings) and the South Bronx (same poverty scenario.....even worse, in some areas)....were my homes (my brothers and I traveled between our family).
BTW: the tracking and taping-over the previous segments with the VCR...and the Burger King tv commercial with a cameo of [Actress] STACEY DASH....really warmed my heart. GEN-X, FOREVER!!
When I saw Stacey Dash I was like omg!!! 😂 (1984 baby)
I've never lived in America, but I shared the same feelings as you. I don't know English, I write with the help of a dictionary, but I share the same feelings as you. I was born in 79. In our childhood, scenes from America were shown on television on Saturdays. Now when I watched this Burger King commercial, I felt exactly the same way you do. It is also a part of our past. It's like I've watched that commercial over and over again. I went to the 80's, to America, to your childhood. I traveled on beautiful sunny days, ate and drank with you and watched you dance. Hey man, hope to see you in Heaven. I hope the children of Harlem become Muslims. Prophet Muhammad says that there is eternal youth in Heaven. We can enter any year we want (for example, the 80s) and live our beautiful memories there over and over again. Forever. Always young.
@@davutdavut6662 What is your nationality?
@@2conscious Turkish
@@davutdavut6662 Ahh, okay. I haven't traveled to Turkey, YET. But, I've been to North Africa, 4 times (since 2001). Most recently, 2x, last year. I usually stay for 1 month....and I purchased an apartment there (Cairo).
I had this on a VHS tape. Somehow I always knew when a breakdance news piece was going to be on.
Thanks for posting. I remember I was so excited to see this.
This why The Incredible New York City Breakers we're The Best in the world and the Stars of the Motion Picture BEATSTREET...
I thought Dynamic won the contest?
Two of my close friends went to NY for summer holidays from the UK back in 84 for 6 wks. They literally came back different people! it's only watching this now 40 years later that I realise the impact it must've had on them, they became like the dopest popper and breakers in the city with the swag to match! what an experience to be in the mecca of hip hop at it's height!
Thanks for upholding the culture.
Fantastic duo.
80's Forever ❤🧡💛
Yes, I agree
@@mtandiz When we have experienced such a decade we can only continue to love it even today 😉🫶🤜🤛
@@dimosraikoudis I agree
Childhood memories I grew up while this was fading away
11:00 "give it a couple of years and break dancing mey be an olympic event"
15:50 Stacey Dash
She still looks the same
I love all of you out there my generation from coast to coast 🤘 💪 ❤️ stay up...
Excellent de bons souvenirs!
“May be an olympic event…”
2024z
I got the same VHS with all those extra snippets at the end too lol. Can't remember who I got it off but I used to trade a lot of VHS's with other streetdancers and collecters back in the 90's/00's.
I got this tape from my brother, Louie newave, who sadly passed in 1998, it was in his storage
@@mtandiz Sorry to hear that. RIP to your bro. The tape might have originated from him.
@@Devious1Funk maybe
I got more moves then M.J.it dont stop.B.BOY.DENNIS THE MENNIS.707.KALI.😮😊🎉
senza parole
11:01 - The reporter had to wait a little more than "a couple of years" but it finally came true. Break dancing is an Olympic event in Paris 2024. For some that's a sellout, others may find it evolving. To me the 80's will always be where it was, but fun to see how it's evolved these days. Some of today's breakers have mad skills.
I heard
Religiously Dope‼️
And peep Stacey Dash in the Burger King commercial @25:01 😂
The only one dancing in that group of people. That I respect is float. I was the best up rock was me, and I was from Chelsea Manhattan projects. They used to call me snake or the one. and the reason they gave me the name the one. Is because I was not in any crew. They didn’t know my name but whatever I came in the circle they used to say that’s the one he’s nice. a lot of people also know me by kiki. If anybody thinks that I’m crazy, you could ask crazy legs and k swish
Wow, small world, hung in Chelsea, back in the day, 26st bet 9th & 10, went to Roxie’s and the fun house all the time.
We had to walk past those projects to get to Roxy's. Taking tags walking down the block of course..
Air Flare @ 19:15 🤔

(Look Twice) You biters!! 🤣 I though Darnell & Basil's moves were original & they just had access to videos of American poppers & breakers. Something that would be impossible in the age of the internet which everyone has access to. That's why nothing seems original these days because you can't steal ideas without everyone knowing or having access to the original source.
I can do the robot 😅
What a Master piece of Oldskool Hip Hop history and in great visual quality! Even the commercials in the 80s were exciting to watch.
Also what I know is that Dynamic Breakers declined being in the movie "Beat Street" because they fear that the world (competition) would steal all their moves! (Stupid thinking & decisions). Therefore the spot was given to the New York City Breakers! The "Rock Rockers" in Beat Street (Rock Steady Crew) were already automatically the breakdancing crew in the movie vs NY City Breakers!
Stacey Dash still looks the same 😳
@ 7:14 ,,.......... STACY DASH ??
The best breaking crew , were the body mechanics from 51st Brooklyn.
Bambatta the mad predator
100%
Dynamic won but never appeared on beat Street..?
Yes, i think they broke up / spit into two groups. I believe one because Dynamic Rockers, the other became Dynamic Breakers.
@@mtandiz oh ok... and missed out on a movie deal in the process
@@bboy-kv6pd sadly yes. I dont know the details or the exact facts, but this is what I heard. But what a bunch of great guys.
Your all wrong.
Break dancing is every dance that came from around the world to the new world and made it
Even the music
Started with Disco King Mario!💥
I also heard that Duece, Julio Martinez had committed suicide 🙏.
Sad to hear that
@@mtandiz Indeed, I went to JHS with him and he was a great person.
No he didn’t. He is a Dj know as Duce Martinez. Google him now.
Anyone know the track @ 22:33? Shazam was useless.
Jenny Burton - Remember what you like
@@AlekseiLight Thank you! Turns out I have several of her albums in my collection, but couldn't recognize the track. Such a great artist and time to be alive!
