Same here. Definitely going to peep both of the flicks later on. This Year can't end quickly enough.

I didn't know he married Lela Rochon.

Yep. She was also featured in "Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo".

Dude was a True O.G. Street Dancer. He was one of The Lockers featured on "Soul Train", from 1973-76. The Group never got paid any $$$$$, so when they confronted Don Cornelius about it, who was paying them in Fried Chicken (you think I'm joking), he fired them from the Show.

Some of my Favorite videos from The Lockers:

I saw Beat Street way, way back in the day and it was cool . Came out about the same time as Breakin’.

 

[Swiffness!]

Those movies any good?

They're basically musicals. I always fuck with musicals so long as they show real dancers or musicians at the top of their game.

Its like watching Jackie Chan or Bruce do their thing, that shit takes great choreography and true skill to do right. You can't fake or CGI it.
