Idk how at almost 55 I still remember the words...what a great frickin time to be alive. We had such a blast, roller skating, or just jamming & dancing. This music changed everything. 🕊️♥️🎶
This brings back so many memories. The song is a classic breakdancing jam but is not the song(s) they were dancing to. The 1st set of scenes is from the movie "Beat Street", the remaining are from "Breakin". The guy with the hat is known as Shabba Doo and the hispanic dude in the dark Burgundy jacket is PopNTaco, 2 legends that we lost fairly recently. The dude wit the broom is Boogaloo Shrimp who actually taught Michael Jackson some of his dancing techniques.
Most of the break dancers in the first battle from Beat Street are from the two legendary break dancing crews the NYC Breakers and the Rock Steady Crew.
@@jasonloyd3250 Yessir. I remember the likes of Crazy Legs, Mr. Freeze from RSC, Kid Nice, Glide Master from NYCB. They were instrumental in ushering in being a B-Boy and dance battles, part of the make-up of the HipHop culture.
All these YOUNG RAPPERS need to be watchin'! They need to PUT MORE RESPECK on the names of the OGs!!! They need to know true Hip Hop history. These KIDS were AMAZING! And these are the ones in the movies. The kids on the street were even more amazing!!!😎
I was 14 when this came out. What a vibe!!!! A great roller skating song as well back in the day..... memories of the 80's. What a great experience as well, still have compositions. Thanks I needed that one .....
I love watching break dancing, but nowadays, it makes me wonder how these guys felt the next day!!! They're in great shape so they must feel just fine. I applaud them!!! Great reaction, Tim!!!! I love the 80's!!!! 😎👍🏼☮️❤️
Come on! Yassss!! So many memories in the backyard with cardboard box break dancing 💃🏽; wearing neon colors w/spike wrist bands… good times when the block use to watch the guys spin on there heads and pop lock.. and waking down the street w/ a beat box… 📻fun times!!! Thanks for sharing
OMG. So many wonderful memories. "Aint no stopping us....no stopping"!! B-Boys and Girls...I see y'all in these comments!!! Thank you for this reaction...
I actually just found you two, thanks for giving music in the 80s the attention it still deserves. So many of my childhood memories are locked up in these songs, when we all just wanted to break dance.
Good Lord what an 80s flashback. Get my leg warmers and lace gloves. Between the breakdancing and head banging no wonder GenX Needs new hips and knees!
Ahhhhhh, Newcleus. This has to be one of my very favorite songs from the 80s, a decade jam-packed (see what I did there?) with rocking songs. Everyone loved this back then, and it's great to see the younger crowd appreciating it now. I will NEVER get tired of this song!
The first part is "THE ROXY BATTLE" from the movie BEAT STREET which is East Coast of the USA in New York City, New York and it's more of the floor stuff in BBoy..... The BBoys in blue are the ROCK STEADY CREW and the BBoys in red are the NEW YORK CITY BREAKERS..... The second part is "THE BROOM DANCE / RADIOTRON BATTLE Scene 1" is from the movie BREAKIN' which is WEST COAST of the USA in Los Angeles, California and it's more of the Poplocking of Bboy..... Both is a CLASSIC in the HIP-HOP CULTURE..... In the movie BEAT STREET, the last dancer who took off his shoes is BBoy CRAZY LEGS..... In the movie BREAKIN' the BBoy who is in the red jacket is BBoy POP N' TACO (RIP), the Bboy wearing the hat is SHABADOO (RIP), the short guy is Bboy BOOGALOO SHRIMP and the other black guy is BBoy Popin' Pete..... Rapper and Actor ICE T was in BREAKIN' as well as the sequal BREAKIN' 2: ELECTRIC BOOGALOO..... When BBoy started this was how it used to be then in the late 90s it all change with more acrobatic stuff and made it less of what the OLD SCHOOLERS have been doing cause you don't see much of the WINDMILL, BACKSPIN, HEADSPIN, and all the stuff that you saw in BEAT STREET..... The POPPIN' / POPLOCKIN' is still there with added more street dancing to BBOY.....
One of my most favorite songs ever!! Loooove this song!! Also loved the movies Breakin, Beat Street and Electric Boogaloo!! This is where it all started!! Best times ever!!!
Hi Tim! The clips in this video are from two separate classic Hip-Hop culture films: the first, "Beat Street", and the other "Breakin' ". But the song Jam On It, if I remember correctly, was not featured on the Beat Street soundtrack, but was featured on the Breakin' soundtrack.
It’s funny how at @4:24 you said: “That’s Crazy….his Legs…” And his name is CrazyLegs. 😂👍🏽 We used to get arrested for dancing like this on the streets back in the 80s. And Shabba Doo aka Ozone (from the movie Breakin) that you said looked like Raiden from Mortal Kombat was a friend of mine. He passed away from COVID in 2020. R.I.P. He was originally from Chicago.
Classics!! I remember watching Electric Boogaloo & Gremlins in DTLA. Went home & there was a surprise party waiting for me. It was my 9th bday. One of my best childhood memories. “Jam on It” never gets old.
This is what people developed when they couldn't afford much. Street culture brought out a lot of talent back then. I remember people dressed up in puma gear or Nike and just practiced this stuff on cardboard boxes and invented so many extremely talented moves. I kind of miss this decade it was so chill back then.
These are clips from 2 Dance movies back in the 80's ,Beat Street and Breakdance they are both iconic films from the 80;s Breakin and Body popping scene Newcleus also made The "wikki wikki " song before Jam on it in or aroound the same era as these films
🤣🤣 you finally went there. The birthplace of rap. Breakdancing was new then. I could never do it. But my brother could. I think that's where he lost his hair, in that head spin. 🤣🤣
Not forgetting the street art (spray can) culture stemming from these times and the street sounds electro compilations, I had a fair few of them. Was the start of hip hop culture becoming more popular to the masses
That was a movie called Breakin’. A classic breakdancing film. There’s also a pt. 2. Turbo was my favorite. This is what the gangsters use to do when they had funk with each other back in the day. Lol
@@Cricketesj I wasn't talking about the films. I was replying to the comment which implied gangs didn't use guns before the late 80's which isn't true.
The video is based on the 1984'' Classic movie Beat Street And the The movie Breakin both Represents The B Boy Breakin Era!!! This isn't the video for the song nor was this song in the movie Beat Street, But Jam On It was Brand new And Fresh at that time And it was 1 out of many Breakin Classics that everybody was Poppin Lockin And Breakin too way back In 1983'' 84''.🎶🔥🔥🔥😎
The first half of thevideo is to the movie Beat Street! The second part is Turbo from the movie Breakin dancing with the broom. Then dancing with him in the black Fedora is Shabba Doo. He was an original Pop Locker from the 70s!! People used to battle with Breakdancing and not guns! This song is still HOT in 2022!!
My ultimate jam❤. I asked my dad if this was his favorite era, turns out his response was “😏” “can you still breakdance dad? 😂” him: 🤨🤕🤕 nah, past my prime” I couldn’t laugh any harder
Aaah great memories! I used to dance to that in my favourite disco in Germany in the 80s. We had US soldiers there and it was a funky place. Breakdance was totally hip that time.
Hi Tim! If you like this classic breakdancing jam, you should also love "I'm Ready" by Kano (1980). You may also enjoy: "One for the Treble" by Davy DMX (1984). "Play At Your Own Risk" by Planet Patrol (1983). "Hip-Hop Be-Bop (Don't Stop)" by Man Parrish (1982). "Looking For the Perfect Beat" by Afrika Bambaataa & the Soul Sonic Force (1986). "E.T.'s Boogie" by Extra T (1982). "Numbers" by Kraftwerk (1981). Anyone of your subscribers who were around in those days will also know and agree that these were all Hip-Hop/Breakdancing classics. :)
Some homeboy over here in the UK told me Lee(Robert Taylor)couldn't actually do all the moves in beatstreet and used a stunt double,he was team beatstreet(NYC breakers)homeboy said Lee couldn't dance,he was just a stand in because he looked the part,Ozone,turbo,Kelly,rocksteady crew,NYC breakers ect,a lot of them went on to fame outside these big Hollywood movies,lollipop sanches,pop 'n' taco,poppin Pete ect,but not Lee(Robert Taylor)honestly i don't think he ever danced again after this film,he was in one of the most celebrated dance films of all time,beatstreet,that's big time b boy status there,and he gives up on all that fame,maybe homeboy,what he said about(Robert Taylor)is correct
What's up Twinsthenew Trend!!! Rip to my friend the iconic street dancer , the originator, Chicago‘a own, The Pride Of the Windy City , Adolfo "Shabba-Doo" Quiñones. God Bless his luving fam. Shabba-Doo used to live in my neighborhood and went to the same Elementary School called Talcott N also went to the same High school as well called Wells Academy N he also went to the same Union League Boys And Girls Club #2. Twinsthenew Trend, yed u definetly need to get the Breakin Soundtrack. Great music by Ollie & Jerry, Ice-T & Carol Lynn Townes. N Yes that was Jean Claude Van Dammed on the beach scene before he made his career with Bloodsport. PS: Little Coco was the Mexican little boy break dancin. I'm also friends with him, Turbo N Bruno Pop N Taco Falcon On FB Nation. Rip to Bruno Pop N Taco Falcon!!! Rip Shabba-Doo!!!
When I say this has been one of my favorite songs for thirty-eight years and counting, BELIEVE it. This always make me want to pop, and that's it, 'cause I gave up breaking a LONG time ago. 😆 This video is not the *official* video - this was fan-made, using scenes from the movies "Beat Street" and "Breakin'" - both are worth at least one viewing. RIP Shabba Doo and Pop N Taco.
This video is a cut and shut job, consisting of the Roxy Battle from the film Beat Street and of course, Newcleus. The original track that goes with the breaking battle is Arthur Baker's Breaker's Revenge which is an absolute banger. The breakers were the famous Rock Steady Crew, and the New York City Breakers (their tags were changed for the movie of course). Fun fact - Mr Wave, the popper, surprisingly turned up a few years ago here in the UK on an advertisement for the Halifax Building Society. Another fun fact is that Crazy Legs, in the blue who goes last, did the back spins in the film Flashdance. He had to dress in women's clothes and put on a wig so that he would look like the film's star, Irene Cara! The second film is Breakdance the Movie as it was called here in the UK, or Breakin' in the US. the best track in that film was Ice T and Chris 'The Glove' Taylor's Reckless, which you should give a try.
Loved this song since I was a little kid. Yes the video is from a movie. It's called Breakin' actually I'd like to see a reaction to that film. Or at least some clips from it and it's sequel.
I love this movie also also dude at the end is who taught Michael Jackson the moonwalk Michael's even said so. That Is a black history factThe movie is Breakin And breakin 2electric buggaloo
I saw Beat Street in the Devon Movie theatre back in 1984 when I was 14 in Philly. All us kids were dancing in our seats & the aisles. Great times for sure! Nice review
Good reaction, bro. I'm sure many other commenters already mentioned it, but just in case, just to provide some context to the video, the Newcleus song 'Jam On It' had nothing to do with the footage on screen. This video appeared to be fan-made, using the song, and then adding footage from 2 different movies. Anyway, the two movies in this video are also GREAT movies that you must check out. The first scenes with the guys doing a breakdance battle at the club, is called 'BEAT STREET'. It's a very compelling movie from 1984. If you're interested in early Hip Hop and early Hip Hop culture, I would definitely recommend 'Beat Street'. And the 2nd movie (whose scenes were edited into the video) is called 'BREAKIN' (1984). Also a good movie. Btw, I wished you had listened to the 'Jam On It' song lyrics...but you were distracted by the breakdancing....LOL
The facial expressions had me crackin up! But yep this is what was done! Now where's my leg warmers and Bobby socks with the ankle ruffles with heel's 😂😂😂🥴 and my poka dot mini skirt 😳😲😂😂😂 🤣😂😂 and roller skates slung over the shoulder with the glitter
The movie was "Breakin" that was a scene from the movie you should watch it it's really good that that old school "Break Dancing " they was doing you should check out the movie"Beat Street" and "Crush Groove" with Ll Cool J, Fat Boys and Run D MC and Russell Simmons music producer and Brother of Run thats a great movie and please react to " Sheila E "A Glamorous Life" singer and female drummer no one like her before her Karen Carpenter. She bad🔥🔥🔥
This is what roller staking palaces looked like in the 80s. Always a group break dancing. IMO best times to grow up.
He was skating around the outside, on the inside they was dancing.
Yyepp!
See this was a time when people would have break dance battles and nobody fought and shot each other etc🎉
@@nancyskids5696exactly, we could take the skates off at 9 or 10 for the battle
This was a staple in our youth. Dancing in the clubs … so freaking good ❤
Take me back!
Idk how at almost 55 I still remember the words...what a great frickin time to be alive. We had such a blast, roller skating, or just jamming & dancing. This music changed everything. 🕊️♥️🎶
I feel bad for these kids nowadays, their stuck in the computer age & blubber😢. Push the button!!!

Boogaloo Shrimp played the Urkel bot on Family matters, and he was in a bunch of movies
He must have taught MJ the moonwalk right?
It was two different movies shown here. The first one was Beat Street and the second one was Breakin'.
Awwh, this is still a jam in 2022!❤❤❤❤ Thanks for listening to this one Twin! Keep opening yourself up to great music ❤❤❤❤
All these YOUNG RAPPERS need to be watchin'! They need to PUT MORE RESPECK on the names of the OGs!!! They need to know true Hip Hop history. These KIDS were AMAZING! And these are the ones in the movies. The kids on the street were even more amazing!!!😎

So true 🤣
Just had a hip replacement for my 48th birthday in October. Stupid osteoarthritis 🤦🏾♀️
As a white kid from the burbs of Detroit, this song was HUUUUGGGEEE!

It’s funny how at @4:24 you said:
“That’s Crazy….his Legs…”
And his name is CrazyLegs. 😂👍🏽
We used to get arrested for dancing like this on the streets back in the 80s.
And Shabba Doo aka Ozone (from the movie Breakin) that you said looked like Raiden from Mortal Kombat was a friend of mine. He passed away from COVID in 2020.
R.I.P.
He was originally from Chicago.
They got dudes out their in their 50s can still do that. They was doing it then, they can still do it now.
Electric bugaloo make us wish we could dance scenes from 2 different movies
Classics!! I remember watching Electric Boogaloo & Gremlins in DTLA. Went home & there was a surprise party waiting for me. It was my 9th bday. One of my best childhood memories. “Jam on It” never gets old.
This is what people developed when they couldn't afford much. Street culture brought out a lot of talent back then. I remember people dressed up in puma gear or Nike and just practiced this stuff on cardboard boxes and invented so many extremely talented moves. I kind of miss this decade it was so chill back then.
These are clips from 2 Dance movies back in the 80's ,Beat Street and Breakdance they are both iconic films from the 80;s Breakin and Body popping scene
Newcleus also made The "wikki wikki " song before Jam on it in or aroound the same era as these films
I'm pretty sure they have reacted to the Wiki Wiki song already.
This was most likely the first rap song I ever heard, back in highschool. And those dancers are crazy skilled. Another great reaction!
An all time favorite...that beat never gets old 🔥
🤣🤣 you finally went there. The birthplace of rap. Breakdancing was new then. I could never do it. But my brother could. I think that's where he lost his hair, in that head spin. 🤣🤣
That's why you worked in the hoodie, protect your head.
and we danced and we kept on daning and breaking man thoise were the days
Not forgetting the street art (spray can) culture stemming from these times and the street sounds electro compilations, I had a fair few of them. Was the start of hip hop culture becoming more popular to the masses
That was a movie called Breakin’. A classic breakdancing film. There’s also a pt. 2. Turbo was my favorite. This is what the gangsters use to do when they had funk with each other back in the day. Lol
The first movie clip was Beat Street, still a classic!
Beatstreet...Lee was my pretend boyfriend. I know this movie word to word..word from word...lol. I just watched "Crazy Legs" on a movie..short clip.
Breakin 2 Electric Boogaloo!
This is Beat Street!!! Then it turns into Breakin. Two classics!!
Beat street was a time when we had fun I love watching the break dancers
The first time I did a windmill was to this track.Big up to
The Kappa Krew !
(My crew).❤
This is what you call a real reaction 🙏🏾
Literally the best decade!
The first dancing battle's original song is not Jam On It. Its called Breakers Revenge.
One of the Greatest Break Dance songs of All Time!! 2 more I remember: Battle Cry and Breakers Revenge.
Breaker's Revenge was the original track that went with the first video here, the Roxy Battle from Beat Street.
I miss the 80s 😔 where did the time go. It was the best.....
Breakin’ was the movie. Gangs dancin before they had guns.
Actually after they had guns, and before...
@@Wally-Hfirst movie was beat street.
@@Cricketesj I wasn't talking about the films. I was replying to the comment which implied gangs didn't use guns before the late 80's which isn't true.
Loved this song! Skating rink days!!! He needs to do The Double Dutch
Skating rink memories!!! Still my jam! 💙
I love watching y’all’s generation react to genx content, it is priceless!
You got a homemade video with clips from "Beat Street," "Breakin'," and I don't know what else. But it was good to see those clips...
The video is based on the 1984'' Classic movie Beat Street And the The movie Breakin both Represents The B Boy Breakin Era!!! This isn't the video for the song nor was this song in the movie Beat Street, But Jam On It was Brand new And Fresh at that time And it was 1 out of many Breakin Classics that everybody was Poppin Lockin And Breakin too way back In 1983'' 84''.🎶🔥🔥🔥😎

I'm also friends with him, Turbo N Bruno Pop N Taco Falcon On FB Nation. Rip to Bruno Pop N Taco Falcon!!! Rip Shabba-Doo!!!
When I say this has been one of my favorite songs for thirty-eight years and counting, BELIEVE it. This always make me want to pop, and that's it, 'cause I gave up breaking a LONG time ago. 😆
This video is not the *official* video - this was fan-made, using scenes from the movies "Beat Street" and "Breakin'" - both are worth at least one viewing.
RIP Shabba Doo and Pop N Taco.
This video is a cut and shut job, consisting of the Roxy Battle from the film Beat Street and of course, Newcleus. The original track that goes with the breaking battle is Arthur Baker's Breaker's Revenge which is an absolute banger. The breakers were the famous Rock Steady Crew, and the New York City Breakers (their tags were changed for the movie of course). Fun fact - Mr Wave, the popper, surprisingly turned up a few years ago here in the UK on an advertisement for the Halifax Building Society. Another fun fact is that Crazy Legs, in the blue who goes last, did the back spins in the film Flashdance. He had to dress in women's clothes and put on a wig so that he would look like the film's star, Irene Cara! The second film is Breakdance the Movie as it was called here in the UK, or Breakin' in the US. the best track in that film was Ice T and Chris 'The Glove' Taylor's Reckless, which you should give a try.
Loved this song since I was a little kid.
Yes the video is from a movie. It's called Breakin'
actually I'd like to see a reaction to that film. Or at least some clips from it and it's sequel.
Ha!! I was in a breakdance crew. We tore this song up!! 😂😂😂
I love this movie also also dude at the end is who taught Michael Jackson the moonwalk Michael's even said so. That Is a black history factThe movie is Breakin And breakin 2electric buggaloo
That dance move is correctly called the Back Slide.
Breakin and Breakin 2: Electric Bugaloo ...... How I miss them days 🥹
Miss those days when beef was settled with a pop off. More entertaining than fighting.
This was from the movie, "Beat Street".
Hey Twin, The first dance off was from the movie Beat Street and the 2nd dance off was from the movie Breakin.
I used to breakdance super hard on this jam when was just a little kid like 8 or 9 years old!
Good to see young people vibing on music that I grew up on, twin brothers doing their thing 👌
I requested this song so looooong ago. ‘Bout time.
great time👍
Crazy Legs was the GOAT. He was the only one who had multiple turns in that battle
I saw Beat Street in the Devon Movie theatre back in 1984 when I was 14 in Philly. All us kids were dancing in our seats & the aisles. Great times for sure! Nice review
I remember coming out of the theatre after watching the movie "Breakin" and the parking lot was full of break dancers doing their thing.
Oh shit.....he's on to the electro now.
I believe that's from the movie Breakin' cause I recognise the two guys at the end from Breakin' 2 Electric Boogaloo.
Breakin'. Love this movie💯
Good reaction, bro. I'm sure many other commenters already mentioned it, but just in case, just to provide some context to the video, the Newcleus song 'Jam On It' had nothing to do with the footage on screen. This video appeared to be fan-made, using the song, and then adding footage from 2 different movies. Anyway, the two movies in this video are also GREAT movies that you must check out.
The first scenes with the guys doing a breakdance battle at the club, is called 'BEAT STREET'. It's a very compelling movie from 1984. If you're interested in early Hip Hop and early Hip Hop culture, I would definitely recommend 'Beat Street'. And the 2nd movie (whose scenes were edited into the video) is called 'BREAKIN' (1984). Also a good movie.
Btw, I wished you had listened to the 'Jam On It' song lyrics...but you were distracted by the breakdancing....LOL
The facial expressions had me crackin up! But yep this is what was done! Now where's my leg warmers and Bobby socks with the ankle ruffles with heel's 😂😂😂🥴 and my poka dot mini skirt 😳😲😂😂😂 🤣😂😂 and roller skates slung over the shoulder with the glitter
I still have the original 12" extended records of this EPIC jam, holding on to them.
The movie was "Breakin" that was a scene from the movie you should watch it it's really good that that old school "Break Dancing " they was doing you should check out the movie"Beat Street" and "Crush Groove" with Ll Cool J, Fat Boys and Run D MC and Russell Simmons music producer and Brother of Run thats a great movie and please react to " Sheila E "A Glamorous Life" singer and female drummer no one like her before her Karen Carpenter. She bad🔥🔥🔥
