I was Born and raised in Da Bronx the era of the 80’s was a great time to be a teen!!! I believe the 80’s was the beginning of the end of America’s greatness!! We are living in sad dark days, the youth of today are the lost generation .
I'm 51. I was one of the top break dancers on Staten Island in the 80s. Linoleum and Armour All is how we rolled. These guys absolutely put me to shame I must admit. Their moves are extraordinary and works of a professional gymnast. Planet Rock was the #1 break dance jam hands down. Wish I could re-live those days again with my childhood and teenage friends. Kids now will never experience the connections we all had with each other. Glad I lived to experience those times.
No bro they dont put you to shame because if it was not for you they would not be doing what they do. There moves come from you and the other brothers out of New York. You are the originator you did not use gymnastics or anything else it was raw talent and creativity!! You all took something from nothing and look where it is now!!
Someone/somehow have to set the philosophie alive ^,~ And that was the start of this work as we know it today. Evolution have a start, but no ending!! I only would be ashamed if these guys today didnt manage to bring evolution to it. then It would be dead already! :D
Am 43 yrs old . This is how I fought in the 80s & some 90s.. No guns , knifes or bats.. breakdance moves! When u lost , it was respect no matter what we had for each other. I miss these times so much!
OHHHH.THESE TIMES WILL BE REMEMBERED THROUGH THE AGES...OLD SCHOOL AND THE CONNECTIONS WE HAD WITH EACH OTHER..GLAD I EXPERIENCED THE 1980'S AT IT'S FINEST, NO SOCIAL MEDIA OR CELL PHONES JUST FREESTYLE MUSIC AND A PIECE OF CARDBOARD ..SPINNING AND BREAKDANCING.

Damn straight brotha! I'm 53 and like lots of us growing up in the mid 80's, this was the shit back in the day. Break dancing was in the early 80's. Remember movies like Breakin'? lol
@@Premo727thanks for the comment. I'm back. Need to re listen . Beat Steet music next. My daughter is gonna be annoyed. Lol 😆. Yes breaking in the 80s in the high school hallways, gym, windbreakers
I'm 59 and I grew up not far from where rap music originated, the foreparent of hip hop. Long before it was on radio it was creatively done at Block Parties with DJs competing with each other. I was astounded and almost in tears (okay, maybe I was) when I heard the first rap song on the radio as I was in college. I said, "Wow! The music from my hood Made it!" Everyone loved it and it took off from there! Thanks Youth all over the globe for carrying it on with song and dance!
E vocês nem imaginavam, que isso chegaria no Brasil e explodiria o subúrbio do Rio de Janeiro com esse som maravilhoso! Parabéns a todos vocês por isso! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Ouço todos os dias aqui no Rio de Janeiro, ainda hoje, em 2021.
it feels so wierd to know i used to get cardboard boxes to break when i was a teen at 49 yrs old now lmao...these guys are insane!..you have to be in top shape to do this stuff
I'm 29 years old so I can only speak on how these are my dad's jams and I have great memories of him playing these full blast out the speakers RIP dad I miss you so much
47 and missing those old school days carrying a boom box, tapes, card board and the gang just peeling it wherever we could, Hollywood-Sunset-Hollywood Bl, LA-Downtown Broadway, East LA, Olvera Street and anywhere people were cool watching us breaking out and making enough to catch a bite at our favorite eateries. Thank You JAMES for putting this together.
Missing my getto blaster. Only white girl on the west side. Especially that knew the DNS CONNECTION. AND HAD A GETTO BLASTER. GOOD TIMES WHERE SIMPLE 😉😅😉
I'M 52 YEARS OLD, THIS PUTS A SMILE ON MY FACE EVERY TIME!!!!! I CLOSE MY EYES, LISTEN TO THE MUSIC, IT MY ESCAPE FROM REALITY FOR A MOMENT!!!!I I WISH THOSE DAYS WERE BACK AGAIN!!!!!!
My mind was already back home on the corner with the crew chilling with the boy box and backpack full of batteries on ready to keep the deck spinning maannnnn these were the days
This is the shit right here......Even I got a tear almost dropping when I first started listening. Remember "Its not the place thats great its the people there during that time". miss so many good people from then. btw: issei and thesis...Just off the charts man.
Best time of my life...wish i could just zone out and go back one more time...hip hop at its rawest realest truest and finest...no era got shyt on the birth...glad to say i was part of it
Me to!!! Was the best times feeling and so into nothin but old school mixes and planet patrol. My God its on my bucket list to at least have a day of nothing but the circle of nothing but breakdance challenges. Crumping would be excellent as well
This is big mike Pasadena now from San perdro and Stockton Anyway they will never understand on how much fun we had back in the day its was our time and our culture i miss the hell out of it im 54 years old and it feels like ill never grow up from these bad ass times be safe stay young brother's and sisters keep your OG status alive
...i paid for my first sharp Cassette Deck after dancing for a Wedding crowd,i was 13,good times! To be clear not nearly close to these guys here,i watch this with amazement,my respect,humans can be so fantastic if they play.....
Crazy no moves or the music is better you are crazy what today compares to this in dancing... Just like people say labron is better than Micheal I seen both sides, not even close 80's and Micheal no doubt not even close
Brilliantly stated words right there. LUH-OVE it So happy to see other epics exist - on the BEAT evertime it does not, will not ever get old YEP YEP! 🎶

51 years old in 2021 and this takes me back to 1986. 16 with my own car going to clubs and dancing to these songs being mixed on the fly a an actual DJ. Hanging with friends both make and female just loving the songs and moments we had. Still in 2021 I jam these songs out and younger coworkers wonder when the songs came out because they sound great
No doubt my side I'm 1 year younger then u 72 yeah breaking was out then if u conflict u took it out on the dance floor or u shot a headed & it was over and the dude u fought became ur best friend
I am 52 I wish I could do half of the things that I used to do back then because now that I have two strokes I can't even move half of my body I miss these days but I thank God that I was part of this generation
Just turned 51 and I grew up with this music on 92 WKTU New York. Where has the time gone? I try this now and I'll throw out a hip or break my neck. Hahaha Excellent video and mix.
I’m not so sure. Olympics would make it too technical and rigid. Take away from originality and creativity. You would have to perform a particular set to score high enough to win. Red Bull BC One is the Olympics of Breaking.
ur r right IVE BEEN A BREAKDANCER SINCE 1985 AND iM 48YRS OLD I REMEMBER EVERYTHING ME & MY BROTHER WERE GONNA BE IN THE MOVIE BREAKIN RICKY BENITEZ FROM BUENA PARK CA 90621 AND MY BROTHER JEFFERY ARROYO FROM BUENA PARK CA 90621 WE WENT TI THE KNOTTS BERRY FARM HOTEL & THAT CREW WAS THERE OZZ ROCK,HANDY MADN CHAD ,SHRIMP. OZONE COULDNT MAKE IT & ALL THE CASTING MEMBERS WE TURNED THEM OUT HANDY MAN GOT SYMPATHEE,CAUSE WE WAS HANDYCAPP OZZ ROCKY CAME OUT BUT ALL HE HAD WAS THE WINDMILLLS... I DID ALL KINDS OF COMBINATIONS BUT THE WORLD WASNT READY I BEAT THEM ALL OZZ ROCK GAVE ME HIS BRACELET AS A SIGN THAT I TOOK OUT THE CREW AND HE WASNT PART OF BREAKIN HE WAS THERE FOR PROMOTINAL AFFAIRS CHECK ME OUT ON FACEBOOK RICKY BENITEZ LUV THE VIKINGS BUT ASK ALL MY FRIENDS THELL TELL U THE TRUTH IF IM NOT A DANCER AND A BREAKER
I give props to the DJ who made this mix into the artist who made the songs in this mix. Ain't nothing like that funk baby the funk is the funk. Music makes you lose control 😁
No word of a lie, one of the best b-boy mixes ever! This shit got my heart pumping. I used to break and pop and lock, now my joints just pop because of arthritis. lol
My brother I’m 44 youngest of 7 still remember this like it was yesterday at home the youngest couldn’t say anything but listen to the music and breakdance with my brothers and sisters awesome time 👍
I still can breakdance a bit at 53 and I NEVER used drugs or popped pills, smoked, drank. Glad and blessed and I can still do it. I started in the 80's though when it was just taking off! I was a teen and young adult back then.
Come to my city and State in Michigan and WATCH ME! I dance every day and play basketball daily to stay in shape, agile, tough. I still feel very YOUNG inside and my energy proves it!
Loved it, i remember vividly when i first busted my mills and kept it flyin... I had to check with someone else if it really was the windmill, because it didnt feel like it looked from just seeing it be done... Love the days...
The energy in these video is palpable. It gives me chills and the memories I have of this music damn near brings a tear to my eyes. Break dancers were my hero’s growing up. One of my best friends in middle school could do moves like this and I thought he was a god
I give credit where its due! These cats are serious wit it. But I'm 55 and still today I can do some shut that none of them can do!!! I'm a former gymnist from Chicagos Altgeld Gardens. BEAST!!!
Man I turned 60 two months ago and these moves just blow me away the the music took it to a whole other level 🔥🔥🤯🔥🔥. Breakdancing to B-boy music nothing like it. Should be an Olympic event🍾👍👏👍🍾
Hell Yeah me to miss the good times. A lot of friends passed away tragic and fast just yesterday a good elementary friend got in a bad car accident 😭 did not make it
@@amandabrown9516 Sorry for your loss. I was thinking of something to say that might put things in perspective but I'm having trouble with that myself.
@@amandabrown9516 damn sorry...Time Sucks, getting old Sucks!!Why the Hell did we want to grow up so fast??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
I am 54, grew up in Queens NYC. I remember the Dynamic Rockers from Queens Bridge that went to school with and other crews. I worked Roller Park on Queens Blvd / Lamour's East / Dancin .
I tell my son everyday. They won't let us get old, keep remixing our beats and bringing back the nostalgia. The dance battle was the way to handle disputes..guns not necessary. Pick up your pride and go on with your life.now social media keeps the unnecessary drama alive. Yes, I would be depressed too..can't get a "break" no pun intended.
@Radley2612 CLEARLY things are not the same now like it was then. I addressed that in my original comment. That doesn't change how I feel about hearing old school music again.
Hey out there I'm 63 and love this music these guys are getting down but don't forget us us 70s boys we were good i was one of lockers but you guys are the best
Yup , 47 and I still love this. Great video, great music. 12 in 1984, Breaking 1, Breaking 2. Boom box attached to my hip. People break dancing on corners on top of cardboard sheets. Thank you for sharing this. I can't sing nor dance but I was the one always supplying the music, always and still do. Outstanding agility, fantastic dance moves
I was pretty good at breakdancing in the mid 80s, could jump straight into a flying windmill without using my head and go straight into over 40 headspins and bounce around on one hand, but these guys are in a whole different league to me. I'm 53 now, it's probably too late to learn those moves haha 🙂 Seriously though, how the heck do they do those moves? Their strength must be phenomenal! Oh, and the music is awesome too! Just wow!
Yup! Big change in mentality. Everyone wants to be a thug but at the same time they like to wear their pants half ass 😁😂. What makes it even worst is the girls who pay attention to them. Lol
That was the best times me and my cousin God bless RIP would be out with the boom box and the crew battling it out maaaannnnn times were soooo good then.
You simply can’t beat the 80’s era for that raw new sound in music...especially when it came to that electro street sound and even though I totally love and respect the backdrop clips of new era of B-boy/girl I feel it would’ve been more effective to use old classic clips of breakdance to go with the old sound tracks...the passion I have for the movement that was breakdance runs deep and I know I’m not alone in this 👊🏾🤘🏾
I miss those days. Wow. I'm 49 and still love hearing the old school hints. It also remind me of all the block parties that I use to have breakdance battles. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Omg I love this I remember being at a club house party and they were playing this mix and I was having so much fun my younger friends were looking at me like you're old 💀
59 here, but inside and in my mind I feel like 21. Unforgetable times, great memories, nice girls. ! And the music, my gosh….. out of this world.!!!!
Yes ❣️ 51 here in the house❣️😎♥️🤟
Hey iam right there with you almost 52 over here ..these was the fun times

This should be an event in the Olympics.
This I would watch.
CJLinOHIO ABSOLUTELY,a pure raw fine art like no othaa,PERIOD!
CJLinOHIO hell’s yea
I’m not so sure. Olympics would make it too technical and rigid. Take away from originality and creativity. You would have to perform a particular set to score high enough to win. Red Bull BC One is the Olympics of Breaking.

53 years of age and still love these tracks, this mix is insane!
me 43, same thing, heart goes out when hear this music
wow im 55 and this puts a smile on my face they said it was a fad and wouldnt last,GTFOH it went global and changed the world
blake my sentiments exactly..I'm 57. And to think their platform was very humble.. cardboard😋
blake they respect the culture overseas i don't think the rocksteady crew could mess with these dudes if they were doing this back in the day
It actually is still big in Brazil, China and many other places it is a global dance if there was one!
I give props to the DJ who made this mix into the artist who made the songs in this mix. Ain't nothing like that funk baby the funk is the funk. Music makes you lose control 😁
If I could have pulled moves like this in '84, mannnnnnn
No word of a lie, one of the best b-boy mixes ever! This shit got my heart pumping. I used to break and pop and lock, now my joints just pop because of arthritis. lol
OMG!!!! I thought I was the Lone Ranger!!!! I LOVE IT!!!! KEEP'N IT💯✌👊
I'm weak with laughter. I thought I was a "Solid Gold" or "Soul Train"dancer!!!! Now, Arthur be like, don't even try it boo!!!!😅😅😂😂😂😂
I hear ya
Now venes are popping hahah
😆 🤣 😂 😹
WAZZUP, TO ALL THE O.G.'Z "THIS IS HOW WE "ROLLED"

Facts those where the good old days always #keepitskindeep 🎶🎵🎼🎧🔥🔥
Im 58 and this music still pumping in my heart
I grew up in the 80’s and watching this was awesome then and watching it know is still awesome 😎
This is the most radical event I have ever witnessed all my history
One our greatest blessings are youth, strength and health. You don’t know this fact til you are humbled by age and time.
So so true I grow up in the 80s .Now that I think to those days I had the time of my life groing up.God Bless us all.
So very true...
Totally agree!!!
Yes sir, I agree with you 100 percent..
Truth bomb
Early 1980's, simply the greatest! Enough said.
My brother I’m 44 youngest of 7 still remember this like it was yesterday at home the youngest couldn’t say anything but listen to the music and breakdance with my brothers and sisters awesome time 👍
Amazing!!!!
I'm 53 year old and love It!!
Never gets old just gets fresher always #keepitskindeep
I can't understand how people can give this thumb down..this is classic music and the dancing is just 🔥
THey gave a tHumbs down because tHey were living under a rocc or wasn't born yet!
Only White People Give It Thumbs Down.. They Don't Understand How Deep The Music Goes
All I see is 0 thumbs down and 128K up...must be doing something right.
Butt buttoned
Probably Transtifa. La Onda!!
This is REAL DANCING here! At 53, I can STILL breakdance like I am 23!
I still can breakdance a bit at 53 and I NEVER used drugs or popped pills, smoked, drank. Glad and blessed and I can still do it. I started in the 80's though when it was just taking off! I was a teen and young adult back then.
these kids do seem more like gymnast . But either way their sick as fuk!
I know and it is so cool! :D!!!
Yo prove it!! 😄😄😄
Come to my city and State in Michigan and WATCH ME! I dance every day and play basketball daily to stay in shape, agile, tough. I still feel very YOUNG inside and my energy proves it!
To this day this song still gives me the chills at planet rock me
dude! Only heard since the 90s! But same chills!
The keyboard that kicks off Freestyle Dont Stop The Rock 🥰
Today my father got his 70 th birthday.........He danced to that in the 80s :D
Love him so much:)
Hell yeaaaaaa!!!!! Best of the 80’s
I’m 48 still listen to old school disco!!!
Martina Alvarez Nuno I g
Martina Alvarez old school disco? It’s called freestyle music lady
Marina smog crek.HAHAHA.music break dance. disco ?pussy MEN martina.HAHAHA
Loved it, i remember vividly when i first busted my mills and kept it flyin... I had to check with someone else if it really was the windmill, because it didnt feel like it looked from just seeing it be done... Love the days...
This old school r n b n rap not disco git it right
The energy in these video is palpable. It gives me chills and the memories I have of this music damn near brings a tear to my eyes. Break dancers were my hero’s growing up. One of my best friends in middle school could do moves like this and I thought he was a god
I still Do !I'm 50Yr
fres*sSzd es de r aye Why ❤
We in our 50's & beyond as soon as we hear this type of music we transform💥🕺💃
I can’t ever forget where it all started and I’m still feeling it 40 years later. HIP HOP DONT STOP 💪🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥💣
Likewise bro 👊🏽👊🏽😃
WHERE WAT STARTED?? BREAKIN STARTED IN N.Y. STOP IT!!!😮
We New York babeee❤
51 and lovin the generation that started it all...MINE!
I cant imagine doing these types of moves in the 80s, minds would be blown.
Daaaaaaaamn !!!! Straight Fire !!!! Some of the SICKEST MIXING I'VE EVER HEARD !!!! GREAT JOB BRO !!!!
Agreed! Old school justice
Class of '85
Technics

I’m 55 this year. This brings back a lot of memories. Thanks
Damn! Can't help but feel this. The dancing, the music goes perfectly together.
This music was revolutionary back in the early 80s when it came out... there was nothing else like it before.
Thanks for sharing this song with me today 💞 iPece
@@bookertcampbell3115 j
My uncle said that break dancing was a fad. That was 38 years ago!!
Now it's going to be part of the olympics. Crazy. I luv it at 49 yrs young
Yes I'm looking forward to see in OLYMPICS this never gets old ❤memories 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊❤
I give credit where its due! These cats are serious wit it. But I'm 55 and still today I can do some shut that none of them can do!!! I'm a former gymnist from Chicagos Altgeld Gardens. BEAST!!!
this is going in the olympics??!! NO WAYYY
do they get to play any music they want too??
I know Cool!
Man I turned 60 two months ago and these moves just blow me away the the music took it to a whole other level 🔥🔥🤯🔥🔥. Breakdancing to B-boy music nothing like it. Should be an Olympic event🍾👍👏👍🍾
I'm only disappointed it wasn't longer. Mix is 🔥⚡⚡. The dancing is timeless.
"back in the day" I wish we could go back.....
Hell Yeah me to miss the good times. A lot of friends passed away tragic and fast just yesterday a good elementary friend got in a bad car accident 😭 did not make it
@@amandabrown9516 Sorry for your loss. I was thinking of something to say that might put things in perspective but I'm having trouble with that myself.
You and me both!
@@amandabrown9516 damn sorry...Time Sucks, getting old Sucks!!Why the Hell did we want to grow up so fast??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
im going back you want to come
I am 54, grew up in Queens NYC. I remember the Dynamic Rockers from Queens Bridge that went to school with and other crews. I worked Roller Park on Queens Blvd / Lamour's East / Dancin .
Fun times back then. L'Amours rocked back then, and Speaks out on Long Island.
Planet Rock & Play at your own risk -
Both tracks have stood the Test of Time. Love from 2021
CLEAR by Cybertron was another good one
still going strong
And the planet did rock!!! And it was play at your own risk. We had the time of our life. Miss those days!!
Lick it up girl
I like that man play at your own risk I'm the one that's playing the music I'm playing it at my own risk LOL
Me imagining myself breakdancing expertly 😭
Me & My generation may have started this shit but, DAMN!!! You kids have taken it to a whole new Level. Mad Respect.
Finding Neverland SHIT IS SICK
Whole new level !
I tell my son everyday. They won't let us get old, keep remixing our beats and bringing back the nostalgia. The dance battle was the way to handle disputes..guns not necessary. Pick up your pride and go on with your life.now social media keeps the unnecessary drama alive. Yes, I would be depressed too..can't get a "break" no pun intended.
I was thinking the same thing. Like I couldnt even IMAGINE these moves, let alone, do them..
@Radley2612 CLEARLY things are not the same now like it was then. I addressed that in my original comment. That doesn't change how I feel about hearing old school music again.
I remember these days no fighting we settle thing's on the cardboard
Lol, carrying cardboard and the radio to other neighborhoods looking for a challenge!!!!😂😂😂
Factssssssss
Fact!!!
I'm 54 and I would trade everything to still be able to spend these records and even get me some of the action on the dance floor. 😯😎🤐
Just found a boom box old school for 7 bucks at a garage sale spending more money on the 8 size D BATTERIES
I'm 43 and still skate to this.80s freestyle is by far the best music!
This is not freestyle. But electronic funk was always apart of that scene
It's all electro
Geezus! Why isn’t this an Olympic sport! Phenomenal! 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
It is In 2024 !
I think the 2024 Olympics will have Breakdancing as a competitive sport. I'm 55 and can't wait to see this young talent!
From a DJ to a DJ, your skills are super, great job putting this together👍💯
SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST: THE PRISONERS BIBLE: FACE THE MUSIC!! IS- THE REALIS!!!
7 TRACKS OF FIRE..
It is. It's the right ambiance. They'd get right in the Roxy, no prob.
I am cool 😎@@isrealistheauthor1489 where my frien re
Hey out there I'm 63 and love this music these guys are getting down but don't forget us us 70s boys we were good i was one of lockers but you guys are the best
Bullshit they learnt from your era cuzz.Ya'll will always be the best teachers
"Doo doo brown!" This is a dope Planet Rock mix.
60 years old and still loving it. Timeless!!!
OMG these guys are beasts. They are doing things we couldn't even imagine back in the 80s. RESPECT!
Can you imagine if you went back in time and showed these moves? They'd burn you as a witch!
Spike Bradford u know that.im 46 and these were the best times of my Life.what about u pal,where u from
Yeah but we started break dancing and paved the way!
2GrowDaily Even in my fantasies this didn’t cross my mind haha these guys are crazy!! 😎😎😎💪🏼💪🏼
Bro...they can only do these things now, because 80's breakers showed them it is possible.
The good old days walking around with my ghetto Blaster while dragging a piece of cardboard looking for a battle
John Doe OMG whenever I tell my kids “dance battle” and then “don’t make me drag out my piece of cardboard”
Yess bro! I just sat here and imagine that one. I wish I was their in that time. Sounds dope as hell
We moved up to rolled up linoleum in ‘86 because you could spin faster.
and the Maxell mixtape😎😎
Yup , 47 and I still love this. Great video, great music. 12 in 1984, Breaking 1, Breaking 2. Boom box attached to my hip. People break dancing on corners on top of cardboard sheets. Thank you for sharing this. I can't sing nor dance but I was the one always supplying the music, always and still do. Outstanding agility, fantastic dance moves
I heard breakdancing is gonna be in the Olympics everyone should look into it!!! It would be awesome!!!
⁰²
.
I can see them now breakdancing in the Olympics well American we will win hands down
I was pretty good at breakdancing in the mid 80s, could jump straight into a flying windmill without using my head and go straight into over 40 headspins and bounce around on one hand, but these guys are in a whole different league to me. I'm 53 now, it's probably too late to learn those moves haha 🙂 Seriously though, how the heck do they do those moves? Their strength must be phenomenal! Oh, and the music is awesome too! Just wow!
Best breakdancing ever...and that REMIX ...WOW!
Wow- I remember when THIS is how we settle scores- not guns or knives!
Yup! Big change in mentality. Everyone wants to be a thug but at the same time they like to wear their pants half ass 😁😂. What makes it even worst is the girls who pay attention to them. Lol
Ron Cardenas I hear ya. Do you notice the diversity in all..... that made me smile.
Where have we gone. It’s so sad.
That was awesome though rite :)
@@pswalther Hell yeah it was. Some of the best times that not many would understand unless they actually experienced it. So miss those carefree days!
@@pswalther And yes i do notice diversity in all!
This DJ is great the good. Old .days i the God i choae. Hip hop and dancing cause of drug epidemic as i was growing . i bust my ass roller skating .
48 and I love every moment of this time in my life😊 bringing out my card board with my brother couldn’t wait for my turn to show my moves.
@Steve Ruiz xxxx
That was the best times me and my cousin God bless RIP would be out with the boom box and the crew battling it out maaaannnnn times were soooo good then.
Yeah me too 👍👍👍 i'm the 48 year old helicopter 🤣
48 here also...still bust a move time to time..🤣👍☕
"...waiting for my turn to show my moves!" Dam right.
53 yo here for it and this mix is 🔥!!! Planet Rock - Afrika Bambaataa, where it all began IMHO!! The gold standard with an 808!
It's scary to see anybody battling these guys nowadays truly incredible these dudes are talented
No shit,these kids can move now day!!!

you go back to brooklyn we still do this dude
You simply can’t beat the 80’s era for that raw new sound in music...especially when it came to that electro street sound and even though I totally love and respect the backdrop clips of new era of B-boy/girl I feel it would’ve been more effective to use old classic clips of breakdance to go with the old sound tracks...the passion I have for the movement that was breakdance runs deep and I know I’m not alone in this 👊🏾🤘🏾
I completely agree with you. I thought it and you said it for us! Kudos.
I breakdanced from 85-88. I was good. Now I'm stiffer than a board.
that's ok. Asians are a bit challenged too, right about now. Just sayin
Lol, I tried to show my son what's up in the kitchen and got my head stuck in-between the fridge and dishwasher!!!
@@272bggdgg thank you for sharing that.
Same as me
That’s because you don’t stretch
I miss those days. Wow. I'm 49 and still love hearing the old school hints. It also remind me of all the block parties that I use to have breakdance battles. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
RayFpv Wow!! do I miss Block Parties. 84st. And 17th ave. Best block parties every year!!
I'm right with you! 55yrs n I'm still feeln it. I use to jam to these RECORDS😘😘🦋. Nuthin like these dudes. But I did my thang back in the day😃😄😁😊
I’m 49 and I remember this, talk about good times, good music and breaking battles.......good days indeed. 😎✌🏾👍
Me too those were the days I love music
This made me so happy to see this. Some of my fondest memories are of my brothers breaking on cardboard in our garage. 🙏💕
the headspin at 5:00 to freeze was just unreal. I have never seen that done with such precision. Truly Amazing shit.
60 years old still bust the moves ✊🏻
Same here 59.
Checking the bust , good job thanks
Omg I love this I remember being at a club house party and they were playing this mix and I was having so much fun my younger friends were looking at me like you're old 💀
