Cruising 86th street in Brooklyn in 1982 blasting this song in my Lincoln Mark IV. I was 17. Greatest times of my life. So glad I grew up in that place in that time.
As I'm 50 years old almost now I look back at these days and I miss them terribly... The world was a lot simpler back then...even though we have been faced with too many challenges I can go back and watch these things and reminisce of the good times!! Love you guys!!!
I fr always think I was born in the wrong generation for some reason, Despite me being a Gen X I was born when thing was created (1985ish pretty much) Kinda wish I was able to experience this shit In that exact moment.
Oh hell naw, I just had a flashback to the 80's.These were the good ol days!!I used to be a break dancer!!This was the best era ever. If you weren't a part of this, you missed out!!!!!!
I’m 13 yrs old in the year 2019 and I know that I wasn’t around back then but to all of you people who were I would give anything to be around back the cuz this music is AWESOME 😱😱😮😮👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👈🏻
I'm 16 and my dad is 54 we are both boricuas I'm glad he introduced me to the best music ever from the 70's to the 90's Nirvana, Metallica, Alice in chains, Slayer, Megadeth, Black Sabbath, Dio, Pearl jam, Grandmaster Flash, Planet patrol, Newcleus and etc.
I’m 34 years old. And I remember my pops blasting the fuck out of this. I run to this type of music all the time it brings a feeling of joy knowing that at one time we actually partied together instead of smoking hookah sitting in sections and laughing at each other . People looked way more in shape back then too.
This ICONIC scene forever showed the world the MAJOR contributions of our LATINO BROTHERS & SITAS in HIP HOP culture. Love yall forever! Lil lep, Crazy Legzz, Frosty Freeze etc etc to infinity!
The late 1970's and 1980's/early 1990's was the best decades/eras ever! The music, the fashion, the movies, the cultural diversity and the human condition was awesome and amazing! I miss the world and society before the dehumanizing of the internet, Instagram/Facebook/Twitter generation! Respect to the real hip hop pioneers and break dancers! I remember every friday/Saturday night there was a show called "Hot Tracks" with this host named "Carlos", that featured the best break dancers from all 5 boroughs in NYC, and the newest, hip hop, freestyle, pop, music videos! I miss "Video Music Box" ch. 31 with Ralph McDaniels! "Soul Train" on "Channel 11"! When "MTV" was actually: "Music Television" Best of times! Salute!
17 year old here....and i can admit that you guys from thr 70's 80's 90's had the best music. best cars everything! hurts i couldnt see all of that with my own eyes!
Gabriel Sewratan hey man, I’m 48 live it, danced it, my turtles were inspired by BuckFour, RIP Bucky, You are able to live it through internet ...send the word on old skool it’ll come back 👍❤️
You ain’t lying Ronton Tizzy, back then beef got settled on the dance floor with breakdancing moves, not the crazy shift today with guns and violence.......so glad my teenage years was in the 80’s.
So happy I grew up doin this with all my friends. This is a once in life time deal love that era. To some people it was a movie, But to many of us 80s baby's it was real life
Such a great jam....when life was more simple and fun. People danced and hung with each other without drama....dancing..the best style of dance...breakdancing!
I can say I'm proud so say I belong to the group that actually bought this when it first came out on wax. So many great memories I can't imagine how today's music will hold up to the test of time like a classic like this, that has stood the test of 36 years of musical changes. This is pure enjoyment for many years to come, just look at the comments from the younger generations below.
I'm still a b-boy at heart. Without breaking, I would've been locked up or dead. Big up New York city breakers and the Rock Steady crew. Shout out to my crew the UNIVERSAL BREAKERS. U.N.B!!! ✌
HIP-HOP DON'T STOP!!!! PEAZE, LOVE, LIGHT AND ETERNAL BLESSINGZ TO ALL MY REAL & TRUE HIP-HOP HEADZ OUT THERE THAT REPRESENT THE 5 ELEMENTZ OF HIP-HOP!!!
Oh, you were in that dance group there or at least in the clip, time that the beat beat in the mud made the blacks shake the skeletons, until the white ones were influenced by that rhythm
This also kept you in good shape.I am 40 now and still weigh the same as when I was 18.You walked everywhere back then--I lived in Atl during the 80s-90s and even though I had a car--I walked everywhere.This was after I moved to NYC.Unfortunately when I visit Atl now you have to be armed.--Great Video and Mix.I remember mowing grass for half a summer to buy a pair of parachute pants--they were like 100 back then which is probably about 500 in todays dollars.
I was seventeen when it came out, turned eighteen four months later. The movie was released June 8. 1984. I'm 52 now, there's no way you could be my age. Unless you meant to type 18.
I was going on 20 when this hit. Battling at the Roxy., the Latin Quarters., the Rooftop., and a few skating rinks. I’m 54 now. C’mon I know ladies can be a bit shy about giving their age but you had to be a weeeee bit more than thirteen if you’re 52 now. LOL!
Melanie R thats. right. gone class of 84 85. and our big cousins class of 83. that was some good times and the weed was the best. made u eat smile. and want to fuck. im just saying y'alls. HUN.
Man I used to play this song in my room mako all the sounds 😂 What a great era to be alive!! Glad I was part of it!! 2021!! Who's here going down memory lane?
It’s crazy how it was before technology came along. I’m fortunate to grow up in this era. Feel blessed because you don’t see this anymore. I wish I could go back in time for a little bit haha!
This is how The Dems. and The Reps. Should settle their Beefs,... On the Congress Floor no less,... Anyone got a Big Cardboard Box, with a BiggAss BoomBox, and an entire carton of Batteries🔋🔋🔋
Those Republicans don't want none of this! (---right before I demonstrate why it's called "break"dancing and get taken away on a stretcher just seconds into bustin out with my fresh new moves)
It wouldn't be a contest. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez has already been seen bustin' some moves. What Republican could hang with her...lol. She's from the Bronx. She's got some of that blood pumpin' through her veins.
Anthony Morales. Lol your lucky! I was born in the new era. All these new Rappers are not like the ones in the 80s. Happy my dad can show me them though. At least I have him. Heheh
This song got the party started, and everybody on the floor! My BFF tried to teach me how to break dance and pop lock off this song! That was over 35 years ago!! One of my favs! Still the jam along with “Cheap Thrills!”👏🏼👍🏽
Thank goodness for youtube! This was an era when everybody danced. Even if you couldn't, you at least tried. Exciting times to practice pop locking and unique break dance moves. Wow! I'll never forget the wonderful memories. Play at your own risk.
The good ol day's 4 sure!!!! Everybody dressed accordingly, everybody ( for the most part ) got along, parties were funny n clean. Lot's of dancing and break dancing. The music was killer back then. It was easy and clean. Glad was able to experience that. Gracias a Dios!!!! Enjoy......
For those youngsters and non New Yorkers, this was filmed at the Roxy the best roller disco on earth. The floor was a dream to skate on the hardwood was silky smooth and sat atop a layer of cork which made impact cushioned, you could skate all night. These were the 2 premiere break dancing crews in the world at the time. The New York City Breakers in Red and The Rock Steady Crew in blue
In a recent interview with Mr Wave, he talked about how intense this battle actually got. To the point the directors had to step in. His reaction to Doze jumping in at 01:16 was 100% authentic. Shout out to the legendary New York City Breakers (Beat Street) and the legendary Rock Steady Crew (Bronx Rockers)
New York here 🙌🏼 I was jammin ‘ to this in JHS. I’m now listening today , in Vegas 🎉Still makes me dance and reminds me how fast time flies too .. 2024🙋🏻♀️
No, we battled with guns a lot more frequently than we did with dance moves back then... This clip is from a movie. It doesn't represent the reality of the streets and street violence of the time. 213 818 ... 310.
Full blast, with the radio on your shoulder blowing directly into your right ear. Who needs both ears anyway? One is plenty- anyhow even if I could still hear out of both ears, the constant ringing would be twice as loud, so I wouldn't be able to hear anyway- sigh, good times. I'd trade that right ear and raise you a right eye to have the 80s back.
i could watch this a million times over n over n over again, i was a youngin in this era but lived enough to know this era that built hip hop culture..no guns, nobody gettin jumped, jus get your crew n whereva we at, in the park, at school, in the club, lets battle!
What an era for music! Back in the day, my brother and I owned and operated large laundromats with video arcade rooms. We pumped this song throughout the stores. It was a favorite with the young people playing games and our laundromat customers.
i remember me ,and my cousin riding through the neighborhood on our BMX bikes. He would tie his massive boom box to the handle bars..Blasting out this song ,and many others..We thought we were so cool..Great times.
I,m 60 years old ,and i can tell you .These were the best years of my life.The homies and me laying a piece of cardboard down ,duct tape the edges ,spread a little bit of flour down,crank the boom box up, and you were set .Almost every teenager in my barrio were breakdancing.Trying to out do the other crews with your best moves and latest cuts.We were damn good too.We were inspired by these movies.
I grew up dancing and battling during the You Got Served/Stomp The Yard era but Beat Street also got me fired up at the time. The scene is very much alive and well but due to Covid, outdoor sessions at my area became scarce. Hopefully I'll get back into it one day
So right . Kilmarnock, Scotland. Myself and friends trying to get better every day. 1984. Out on cold winter nights with cardboard and linoleum. The best day's ever. Going to the plaza, Glasgow for big battles. Lol. Peace. Happy New year
Same, as a kid in Birmingham, getting our hands on them white label vinyls, rushing home to put on tape to hit the streets with yer crew, a massive blaster and a roll of lino. Some great tunes from afrika Bambata, all the electro albums, Tommy Boy and so on.
some of the music today sounds good i do like chill hop music..but love my old school...Remember old school haters if it wasnt for old school there would be no new school so respect the roots....
We use to take cardboard boxes from behind the grocery store at the bus stop and battle way back in the day. We didn't have big ghetto blasters going to school, but we pirated music from the radio and played it on a little cassette player and did what we could. Lots of poppin and lockin, and I remember to this day when my friend Mike pulled off a windmill and he was our king for the year.
Cruising 86th street in Brooklyn in 1982 blasting this song in my Lincoln Mark IV. I was 17. Greatest times of my life. So glad I grew up in that place in that time.
Spent many a night on 86st. in my Monte Carlo
Much props OG
Still cruising 86 Street!🇮🇹
I remember that
Bayridge/Bensonhurst
Life will never the same again. What a fckn amazing era to have grown up in.
Me too times was hard for my family but it was fun at the same time.The music the clothes the culture.
Me too times was hard for my family but it was fun at the same time.The music the clothes the culture.
True that. Now that I am 50 years of age. I have collected 60 or more 80s boomboxes. I love my collection and I love to play them often :)
BLESSED!

@futurefunk I was and it was amazing. I was 16 when this movie came out.
The late 1970's and 1980's/early 1990's was the best decades/eras ever!
The music, the fashion, the movies, the cultural diversity and the human condition was awesome and amazing!
I miss the world and society before the dehumanizing of the internet, Instagram/Facebook/Twitter generation!
Respect to the real hip hop pioneers and break dancers!
I remember every friday/Saturday night there was a show called "Hot Tracks" with this host named "Carlos", that featured the best break dancers from all 5 boroughs in NYC, and the newest, hip hop, freestyle, pop, music videos! I miss "Video Music Box" ch. 31 with Ralph McDaniels!

Can never get tired of this old school jam. Good vibes in the air today 😍
Damn, this song still gives me chills..I miss those days so much!
👑💪🏿
People of today don’t have a clue what was fun and enjoying ones self is all about!!!!!! Cherish those fantastic memories!!!!!
Instead of fist fighting we would battle it out on the floor.
Yep people only know how to look down at a phone 24/7 now.
You’re spot on, our generation started Rap music and fortunate enough to have live one of the best era of music and fun.
@@SatanicNecrolust yep I think it's ridiculous , is this there way of having fun now if so it's kinda lame and boring if you ask me and lazy !!!!
@Mahati That's what someone says when they're too stupid to develop an argument
The best. Period! Got the vinyl Planet Patrol in mint condition still after all those years. Still listen to this at 53 and still love it 😍
Lee Hossain me too!! Cheap thrills!

They did also in the Dancing Plague, and there wasn't even any music.
Everywhere you went ! Even the bowling Alley. They went there to breakdance not bowl😂
17 year old here....and i can admit that you guys from thr 70's 80's 90's had the best music. best cars everything! hurts i couldnt see all of that with my own eyes!

@@alexandra161975I don't! The 80s were legendary!!
Do you still look like you did when you took that picture on your profile?
My children thinks our music was weird, I told them that we had the real music!
Unless they are still going to skating rinks. I'm 23 and always heard this song at skating rinks since my high school years (mid 2010s).
I’m 51 years old. Grew up in break dancing. Lord knows if I’d try to do this now.
I’m 16 and y’all 70’s 80’s 90’s music is the shit the beats n all is just fire foreal just wish my generation was like how it was back then 💯‼️

Walking down the street with a box radio in one hand and a piece of cardboard in the other hand. When the cardboard hit the ground the battle started.
Semper Fi USMC I was a boy back then..usually I'm the one looking for the cardboard..But I enjoyed those street battles.
Hell yes and some old lady would call the cops and report a gang fight
Semper Fi USMC lol... You from my era...lol..

I was 13 when this came out 52 now ! 2018 miss those days.😟
Anna Rodriguez beatstreet came out in 1984. How you 13 back then if you 52 now? 2018-1984=34, 52-34=18
I was seventeen when it came out, turned eighteen four months later. The movie was released June 8. 1984.
I'm 52 now, there's no way you could be my age. Unless you meant to type 18.
I was going on 20 when this hit. Battling at the Roxy., the Latin Quarters., the Rooftop., and a few skating rinks. I’m 54 now. C’mon I know ladies can be a bit shy about giving their age but you had to be a weeeee bit more than thirteen if you’re 52 now. LOL!
Anna Rodriguez. me to 52. we had fucking fun.
Melanie R thats. right. gone class of 84 85. and our big cousins class of 83. that was some good times and the weed was the best. made u eat smile. and want to fuck. im just saying y'alls. HUN.

It's and *will always be an art
We lost those days for ever , too much hate now, listening to this song makes me sad , how much i miss those days
I would have preferred the actual song Breaker's Revenge but this is a break classic too so...
web point
Man I used to play this song in my room mako all the sounds 😂
What a great era to be alive!!
Glad I was part of it!!
2021!! Who's here going down memory lane?
I had the 12 inch album
It’s crazy how it was before technology came along. I’m fortunate to grow up in this era. Feel blessed because you don’t see this anymore. I wish I could go back in time for a little bit haha!
This is how The Dems. and The Reps. Should settle their Beefs,... On the Congress Floor no less,... Anyone got a Big Cardboard Box, with a BiggAss BoomBox, and an entire carton of Batteries🔋🔋🔋

Miss those days. It was never a thing...
@Johnny Rutz they're were some whites too. I was there I've seen a lot of unity back then
@@GeriDoc8 its still unified, the media is conflating a non issue. Blacks and whites with common sense are full of love.
@@NotAsGoodAsItUsedToBe I agree. I wasn't debating I was clarifying that the dancers weren't all "PUERTO RICAN" lol. Peace Bro
Glad I was apart of this era, cause today's world has gone to shit! ✌🏼

Me three!
today is BASURDA
Anthony Morales. Lol your lucky! I was born in the new era. All these new Rappers are not like the ones in the 80s. Happy my dad can show me them though. At least I have him. Heheh
Soon it will be the 2020 s....and nothing but crap
Guido music. I am 54. I am so happy, i grew up with this music and dance style. A simpler time. No guns or knives. Just your dancing moves.
One of the most important songs in hip hop
Aging will always reflect and claim an era where that time was it's best. This era was by far "the flavor in your ear"
This song got the party started, and everybody on the floor! My BFF tried to teach me how to break dance and pop lock off this song! That was over 35 years ago!! One of my favs! Still the jam along with “Cheap Thrills!”👏🏼👍🏽
40 years ago as it was released in 83'
AMEN FOR THE 80's MY KIDS HAVE NO IDEA!!!!! WHAT A GREAT ERA IT WAS TO GROW UP IN!!!!!!
DAMN good job, takes me back when TALENT was more important than what you wear or what you have.
Man I was born in 81 and still rock this I learned from the best dj co lock baby Florida panhandle Crestview baby
Antwan Grant yes yes yes
Everyone had their own style!
Thank goodness for youtube! This was an era when everybody danced. Even if you couldn't, you at least tried. Exciting times to practice pop locking and unique break dance moves. Wow! I'll never forget the wonderful memories. Play at your own risk.
I was born in the mid 60s I miss all the good music I don't know what the hell they doing these days yasssssssss yasssssssss
I need a time machine, damn!!!!
lol

Brings back lots of memories
Lots of fun and good times
Absolutely sick old school freestyle! I wish we could go back!
You had to be from this era,to understand how monumental this song was!One of the greatest songs ever made!!!!!!!!!!💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
The good ol day's 4 sure!!!! Everybody dressed accordingly, everybody ( for the most part ) got along, parties were funny n clean. Lot's of dancing and break dancing. The music was killer back then. It was easy and clean. Glad was able to experience that. Gracias a Dios!!!! Enjoy......

The music was nothing like you never heard, a secret world to be you and be in the moment. Back In the Day!
Clean yea just weed and beer

LOL. Enjoy
Yolanda Medina that's exactly me and my dad !!
Much Respect to you and your Dad!
Yolanda Medina that was funny. I get lit and then try, almost busted my ass
For those youngsters and non New Yorkers, this was filmed at the Roxy the best roller disco on earth. The floor was a dream to skate on the hardwood was silky smooth and sat atop a layer of cork which made impact cushioned, you could skate all night. These were the 2 premiere break dancing crews in the world at the time. The New York City Breakers in Red and The Rock Steady Crew in blue
I saw Planet Patrol perform this at the Funhouse.
Knowledge...
@elkstereidolon3523 Yes!
I have a rocket in my pocket. Two tickets for The Roxy!
Yes but there were also parts filmed at the Oasis in Ridgewood Queens
In a recent interview with Mr Wave, he talked about how intense this battle actually got. To the point the directors had to step in. His reaction to Doze jumping in at 01:16 was 100% authentic. Shout out to the legendary New York City Breakers (Beat Street) and the legendary Rock Steady Crew (Bronx Rockers)
This some of the best ever ever.
Can you link that interview
@@nickrock23 Okay, at work rn. But I'll look for it later...
I don’t know why, the red crew clearly smoked those dorks wearing blue jeans.
@@twatts1523 Those "dorks" are part of a legendary crew. For some reason, they only had a few menbers, who weren't the best, repping in this scene.
I love it..miss those times...I still listen to jams like this...awww
Laura Neyra

@@NemesisEnforcer4937 🎵🎵😎
@@bodean_8167 me too 💯
80’s … best decade hands down!
Still my song after 30 years. Still gets me hyped!
Back when people battled with dance moves instead of guns.
yup yup so true...battled yet still had fun
yes ma'am them were the day's
Alma do hip hop!!!
No, we battled with guns a lot more frequently than we did with dance moves back then... This clip is from a movie. It doesn't represent the reality of the streets and street violence of the time. 213 818 ... 310.
I guess that depended on your neighborhood or part of the country.
If you ain't listening to it on full blast, you aint playing it right.
#YESSUHblessuh
666 Mafia. i know we blew out a many tweeters and busted a many sub woofers. with all that BASS.
I love it....full blast of course!
skating ring days latenite
Full blast, with the radio on your shoulder blowing directly into your right ear. Who needs both ears anyway? One is plenty- anyhow even if I could still hear out of both ears, the constant ringing would be twice as loud, so I wouldn't be able to hear anyway- sigh, good times. I'd trade that right ear and raise you a right eye to have the 80s back.
i could watch this a million times over n over n over again, i was a youngin in this era but lived enough to know this era that built hip hop culture..no guns, nobody gettin jumped, jus get your crew n whereva we at, in the park, at school, in the club, lets battle!
What an era for music! Back in the day, my brother and I owned and operated large laundromats with video arcade rooms. We pumped this song throughout the stores. It was a favorite with the young people playing games and our laundromat customers.
i remember me ,and my cousin riding through the neighborhood on our BMX bikes. He would tie his massive boom box to the handle bars..Blasting out this song ,and many others..We thought we were so cool..Great times.
I loved your comment and laughed out loud
You "thought" you were cool? Well, that's because you were/are.
Everyone carried boom boxes😂
I,m 60 years old ,and i can tell you .These were the best years of my life.The homies and me laying a piece of cardboard down ,duct tape the edges ,spread a little bit of flour down,crank the boom box up, and you were set .Almost every teenager in my barrio were breakdancing.Trying to out do the other crews with your best moves and latest cuts.We were damn good too.We were inspired by these movies.
I wish we can go back to the 80's and 90's this was the life.
Im 38 now and still break dance well no flips ain't tryna break my hip lol jk 😂
I’m glad I was there!
I know 80s & 90 we was All party ppl. No discriminations.
@jame qqqqqqq1qqa
@jame a
I am here March 2024, this was my teenage years. NO SOCIAL MEDIA. Physical fun! P-L-A-Y!
Who remembers watching the battle scene with your boys every day?
I grew up dancing and battling during the You Got Served/Stomp The Yard era but Beat Street also got me fired up at the time. The scene is very much alive and well but due to Covid, outdoor sessions at my area became scarce. Hopefully I'll get back into it one day
So right . Kilmarnock, Scotland. Myself and friends trying to get better every day. 1984. Out on cold winter nights with cardboard and linoleum. The best day's ever. Going to the plaza, Glasgow for big battles. Lol. Peace. Happy New year
Same, as a kid in Birmingham, getting our hands on them white label vinyls, rushing home to put on tape to hit the streets with yer crew, a massive blaster and a roll of lino.
Some great tunes from afrika Bambata, all the electro albums, Tommy Boy and so on.
some of the music today sounds good i do like chill hop music..but love my old school...Remember old school haters if it wasnt for old school there would be no new school so respect the roots....

Joyce Patrick RIP Mom ❤
One Wise King thank you
+One Wise King cjiyrjprnmmo
Joyce Patrick yes bless.
The spirit lives on
An era of time that’s timeless; and can never be touched!
We use to take cardboard boxes from behind the grocery store at the bus stop and battle way back in the day. We didn't have big ghetto blasters going to school, but we pirated music from the radio and played it on a little cassette player and did what we could. Lots of poppin and lockin, and I remember to this day when my friend Mike pulled off a windmill and he was our king for the year.
Omg I remember those days! Yes wow I just miss this so much!
Saudades dos bailes aqui no Rio de Janeiro. só tenho que agradecer. Não entendo como as coisas hoje são tão diferentes.
Just bustin the funky fresh break beats. Almost forgot how dope my crew used to be... almost. Early-80's forever!
Rip dad still listening to your old tunes ❤️
Why am I dancing in my bed when I should be sleeping, 🤣😂😭
