I've been wanting to put this one together for a long time. It was compiled of clips from the "Freshest Kids" Documentary (Shout out to QD3 for one of the illest hip hip docs to date BUY IT! www.amazon.com/...) also included is footage from the movies Wild Style, Beat Street, and several early 80s music videos all backed up by the classic hard hittin' joint from '84 "Davy DMX - One for the Treble". Classic B-Boy and Poppin' & Lockin' are both represented here . Peace to ALL the Originals!

@montimiller2743 7 лет назад

I am 50 and when I look back at this period in time I believe it was the closest we ever got to being together as a society other than the 60's which no decade in my opinion could surpass. What brought us together you ask? The music, dancing, embracing each other and accepting each other for who we were back then, which some of us are still trying to figure out to this day. I guess all we can do is look back to this period as a teaching moment in time when we could all or some of us at least the ones who enjoyed the music no matter what, rock, jazz, metal, rap, pop, punk,country, polka, and we all liked to move our asses on the dance floor, it was my way of releasing some pressure along with a few other extra curricular activities that were going on behind the scenes if you catch my drift. Finally when I reflect on my youth the one thing I do miss is my youthfulness and innocence because most of the time I went into a lot of situations without any preconceived agenda's or internet we only had each other and the good thing about that is I do see the youth today travel in packs as we did and that kept me and most of my friends out of harms way more than I can ever recall as I look back. Man, though I wish I was 17 again and be able to do the windmill kicks and spinning as we did on cardboard back in the day!!!!! We really didn't know how good we had it until we get older, but at least we were there that's all that counts!!!!!

@oneflowerninjamagic1912 5 лет назад

you right this was a greeat time. Blondie shouting out flash on her record. Malcolm Mclaren hobo scratch! buffalo girls. a beautiful blend and time of people embracing each other. a great time for black youth creating something uniquely theirs.

This song was incredible and my other fave was Pumpkin and the All Stars "Here comes that beat". Had a whole routine to it with this kid Dino. Being one black and one white doing some cool stuff in sync, always got the crowd going, but we were nothing next to some of the older crews, but we thought we were the shyte 😂

Yes indeed..lyrical dum- dum mumblin' jumbled up on top of instant (nongratified)produced crap trap beats. Its Push-A-Button and all systems go.Going str8 pass go.No research,no creativ input,no proper dope lyrical content processing,no instrumental ingenuity,just cheat the artist & audience out of the best at what peopl can be by rewardin anyone who can run their mouths over beats with a mondane monotonous monotone sound, an added to an already problematic scenario, a professional record deal. & the success without really payin their creative dues for it is beyond the stars we grasp for.And if thats the best that is provided for the listeners then the ad brand concept of "For your listen pleasure" has been double flushed down the toilet.And if thats the case then its a glitch in the mechanics of humanity.The stuff thats on the radio today isnt worthy of spoonfeeding alligators.Remember how when u didnt like a song, but they kept playin it every day,rather u liked it or not.then you started to like it after awhile.Hopefully,let this not be the case. its not fair to any generation,who dont kno the difrence, to bombard young precious naiive ears of toxic heard compositions of creativ music.But maybe if art imitates life; then it just goes to show,life isnt worth imitating right now,bcs it sucks due to the easy way out idea of production.plus serious worldly problems a new generation of hip hop has to face these days.Especialy with no real skills to remedy them.Maybe the message in what they percieve to be music,is that this is what we all have forward to look to, from now on especialy with all thats happening right now, or atleast needs to happen in the world these days.And ifso then there must be a point to it all...That like the blues or country its an acquired taste.That some of its good right??i'm very diverse in all types of music thats why im a pretty good judge different types of music.Unless,im yet to find more than a few trap music tracks i truely like.i hope so.only its already left a bad beat in the drum of my ear.im glad i already realy stoppd listenin'..after givin it chance after chance.Becaus over all,most all of it pretty much sux.

These were truly my Glory Days right here! I ran away to New York in 1985 to find my cousins and grandparents on Christmas Eve and, I got to meet the New York City Breakers, they even gave me a record to take back home to Michigan with me taught me a few moves powerful paxtor was something else but Mr wave he was the one that I focused on the most with top rocking but, all of them with due respect had a gift! and I don't believe anyone in this world ever matched up to them! with much due respect to the Rock Steady Crew who are just as hard on the Dance Floor! I love you all because y'all are living legends and a tribute to True b-boys MCs and DJs! This was truly one of the greatest moments in my life! At the age of 14 in 1983 I had already been studying flipping sides on the turntables listening to Grandmaster Flash The Furious Five, Afrika Bambaataa, Soul Sonic Force, Kurtis Blow, Davey d,spoonie gee, schooly d, T La- Rock, the three MCs just to name a few I still have all of my records in mint condition!many crates! So thanks to television in our family stereo system with help for my cousin in Brooklyn Sam the man I had already started b-boying in Pontiac Michigan back in 1983 at 14 years old, everybody used to love when I brought my ghetto Blaster around that thing took 16 D batteries and it had to be at least two and a half feet long it was the biggest one of my mother could find for me dressed up in My Adidas, my silkies with my Kangol and cazals on. And if it wasn't that it was my Pumas with the wide laces, I always had to match! this just brings back really good memories the real deal which pushed me to become a DJ and a damn good one too even at 48 now I'm still pushing and shovin! Much love to my old school music lovers that truly know about the real hip hop culture and where it originated we used to battle with dancing, rapping and DJing!! instead of fighting most of the time but you still had to know how to throw them things when it came down to it! It was like spring and summer then compare to a dark winter which is now!DJ "TERRY.T"!

And the fact that all of this beauty channeled through people who were themselves severely economically and racially oppressed and marginalized in society, displays a level of humanity and resilient spirit which just adds to the legacy and the legend of Hip Hop!

This was my life in my teens. Beat Street and Breaking were so influential in my early years. Beat street blew my damn mind!!!! I mix and master Hip Hop these days but man oh man I was a super B-Boy back in the days. I still represent tho! Those were days of all of the elements of Hip Hop. Man, I miss those days and wish for you young ones to see how different and fun it was back then.

Being a B-Boy Break Dancer🕴🤸 in the 80's, in the Chicago Suburbs, this vid gives me a sense of Nostalgia! The Sammy Davis Jr. bit at the end was a nice touch and homage to one of the best sing and dance Artist's to perform onstage or on Screen! 🎥

@@jorgelouis709 Certain members of the very popular 3/6 Mafia, and Bone Thugs often said things that could also be considered as mumble rapping. Even D'angelo would mumble in some of his very popular hits. What's now commonly referred to by specific generations as mumble rap isn't actually new to the world.

Used to walk to work after school at only 13 or 14 (It was illegal to work that young at the time in Chicago too!) and used to love this track! Always wondered if the other kids thought it was as dope it I did!

@ctbadcop15 10 лет назад

@Vegas, there were at least 20 years of hip hop before Dre was old enough to talk on a mic. East cost created the elements of hip hop. There's is no hip hop today if not for the people like us who were down with it in the late 70's thru the 80's and are still here today

Man hold up Dre went back in the early 80's with Hip Hop, World Class Wreckin' Cru started in '83 so don't act like that was ten years ago. Just because the group got going on record at that time, hell they were singing and rapping before then as well. I was learning to Pop Lock in the 6th grade and that was '81, and being in the midwest we was probably late on that style.

@smoothwater1 6 лет назад

Dre is 53, four yrs older than me, so I'm pretty sure he was a 60's baby.
