OMG I love this movie. And I have it. I just got to watch it again. This was the days when we used to break dance. How I miss those days when life was so good. 👍👍💞😘
I just started breakin in 84,and then I got this movie from my local video shop it blew me away loved beat street classic film,use to watch it all the time,ive got a copy of it on dvd Melle Mel and Scorpio signed it for me years later.....🤘😃👍
One of my favorite movies of the 80's growing up in that area as a pre teen was one of the best times of my life everybody thought they could break dance or do karate back then man times have change the kids these days would never get to know how it was during that time I'm 43 now and I still watch this movie and tear up when RAMO die on the train tracks
I remember watching that movie in the theater in 1984. I thought that the dancing was great. I also liked the artwork and the paintings. I enjoyed watching that movie.
Love this movie too. This movie has a Chicago connection. The character Angela: Tony (Tonya Pinkins) is from the South side of Chicago and is the first cousin of my ex-wife. A very nice and beautiful woman as well.
I give up my own life to give an opportunity to any kid to go back in those days at least to set foot in a public library after school hours, or like my favorite was playing marbles outside on top of dry dirt area.
They almost never did just breakdance battles. A lot of times when that happened fistfights and worse would break out. Crews would have beef and solve it via fights just like any other crew. It wasn't like violence only started happening more recently.
Amazing Movie! Loved "Beat Street" n "Breakin'" Grew Up Right In The Beginning n Heart Of The Rappin, Poppin' n Lockin' Was Hooked Ever Since Til This Day! n Omg Learned This Year After Watchin Beat Street So Many Times B4, That Guy Davis Iz The Son Of Two Great Parents! Ruby Dee n Ossie Davis!! Loved The Way Lee Did His Thing On The Dance Floor! The Whole Cast Were Amazing, Amazing Times!! 😘
Omg!! Forget Breakin...Beat Street was my movie and music!!!! I was 13 and all the kids in the neighborhood thought we were break dancers. Huge crush on Ramon back then❤ Hmmm miss the days where we battle each other with music instead of knives and guns...
The Beat Street movie is one of the things from my childhood that inspired me to brush up on my graffiti letters, develop my first tag, plus start writing rhymes. Once I complete my home production equipment setup, I'll be trying to figure how to use everything I have.
I WAS BORN N RISED IN THE SOUTH BRONX STREET..... SPITTTTTTTTTTTT THEY JUS GOT FINISH DOIN A BRAND NEW TRAIN HIPHOP YOU DONT STOP........ IM 43 YEARZ OLD N I STILL LOOK AT BEAT STREET TIL THIS DAY......
This dope movie got me to bust my first pare of pumas and I still rock the same kind 30+ years latter. Hip Hop was the best thang in my life back then beside oxygen.
@mysterymediacorp In case you missed it. It was just jab at how soft this country has become. You're thinking way to much into it my man and you're a fool if you don't think the sjw's wouldn't have anything to say. They're telling the networks to pull Rudolph the red nose reindeer because there is bullying in it. Soft soft soft was my point.
There's a LOT of scenes at the start of this video that were cut from the movie. Wish there was a fan edit/directors cut out there somewhere. Love Beat Street. Seem's a fair bit of "Breakin'" was cut too...
I read up on this a while back, and apparently the missing scenes got binned, totally don't exist anymore apart from what you can see on here and the original trailer. Damn shame.
Classic NYC film. Cooley High Chicago classic and Colors is a LA classic. Those films gave you a true to life guide through those cities and how life were once upon of time. They simply doesn't write nor produce quality films like these anymore.
Dude who played Lee was athletic as hell...Kool Moe Dee, Doug E Fresh, and Melle Mel in the movie...they did'nt even mention the New York City Breakers or Rock Steady Crew...not too long after I saw the movie in the theatre...I visited New York City for family reunion and stayed in the Bronx...I was so excited because I grew up in Virginia and I was 12 years old at the time....I was a Hip Hop fanatic ...to be honest, I still am!
DOUBLE K: "Live from the Bronx, it's the 6:00 news taping two little homeboys singin' the blues. One talkin' paint, the other one money, and they're so full of shit that it ain't even funny!! Take it away, Walter. Let's kick his ass!!" Loved that line! Lol
ONE OF MY FAVORITE ERA OF ALL TIMES THANKS UA-cam" MR.T. SWOOP 4'GREATEST MEMORY OF UPLOAD ON THIS JIM..AND ALL THOSE ACTORS PULL THERE ROLL OUTTA THIS MOVIE.. DID ABSOLUTELY EXCELLENT..SOME R'STILL WITH US..IT'S BEAUTIFUL SITE TO SEE ALL BEAUTIFUL IN COMMENTS CONTINUE I'LD AGREE!!!::))))
In my opinion Beat Street was the best break dancing film ever released. 😎👊🏾🤙🏾✌🏾🎥
Please take me back to the 80's!!! What a wonderful time it was.
Gangbanging was real back then, 80
I used to watch this and the warriors over and over again
And the wanderers
My son Kenyatta would watch this movie over and over again. He played this movie so much that I knew everyone's line.lol
Me 2
An absolute classic!! It should be required watching for all kids, 11 and older.
Nah kid my shorty is 6 turnin 7 n he love play at your own risk n he he break dances to this shit
I always wondered what happened to them! They all look good!!
Meine Welt.
Yes!!
This movie was small but had HUGE HEART ......ErrrrrrrrAH !!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Me and my brother went to see it 7 straight times in the cinema. We were already breakin' so this was awesome! :)
OMG I love this movie. And I have it. I just got to watch it again. This was the days when we used to break dance. How I miss those days when life was so good. 👍👍💞😘
The 80's, breakdancing, and hip-hop, made for some great times and great music.
I just started breakin in 84,and then I got this movie from my local video shop it blew me away loved beat street classic film,use to watch it all the time,ive got a copy of it on dvd Melle Mel and Scorpio signed it for me years later.....🤘😃👍
One of my favorite movies of all time!

My favorite movie as a teen in Chicago, 1984. Thank you for everyone involved with it.
Love this movie too. This movie has a Chicago connection. The character Angela: Tony (Tonya Pinkins) is from the South side of Chicago and is the first cousin of my ex-wife. A very nice and beautiful woman as well.
My era man if i had a 10 million dollars and somebody told me to give up to get those days back I'd hand it over.
If it's on auction I'll be the highest bidder I'll bid million and one to bring those days back
I give up my own life to give an opportunity to any kid to go back in those days at least to set foot in a public library after school hours, or like my favorite was playing marbles outside on top of dry dirt area.
Me too brother
I feel ya!
It’s hard watching the heroes of your youth get old. Just reminds you how old you are
Those were the days - had a nice soundtrack, too!
Did u get your hands on both versions (yellow/pink)?
Beat Street is a movie you must have in your collections. I still have soundtrack on tape. I was 10 when I saw this. Install classic.
I have the Albums somewhere in a crate amongst many other Albums.
THE ROXY BATTLE.... DOPEST BREAK BATTLE OF ALL TIME ON FILM....
True indeed. Just watched this again the other day on Tubi.
I must agree and I want to give my brother a 50th Beat Street theme and my cousin want to have that battle so he can be Lee😂😂😂
I was 13 when beat street come out and I even bought the grandmaster melle Mel album and to this day beat street is my warm up tune wen I train
Cherished memories allover
It's like a heartbeat
I'm taking bout BEAT STREET
Grew up in the 80s, this movie changed my life!
Wow! I didn't know Guy Davis was Ruby Dee's an Ossie Davis' son. He looks like his mother.. And looks far younger than 65.. Amazing!
My thoughts exactly! ☺️
Uuuuuu
I Knew YEARS ago,BUT He was always a little different to me, but UNlike his famous Parents ,,he was the TOTAL Opposite of what they Did.💁
They break danced got fun to settle disagreement, totally different era.
They almost never did just breakdance battles. A lot of times when that happened fistfights and worse would break out. Crews would have beef and solve it via fights just like any other crew. It wasn't like violence only started happening more recently.
Great update!!
Watched the movie more than 80's times it was my inspiration movie to break dance and to dj - LOVE IT - PEACE TO ALL BROTHERS AND SISTERS FROM GERMANY
Amazing Movie!

Wish could get in a time machine the best times 80s , good lad Terry top dope Brah.
Those days were worth every breath I live, I used to break dance pop DJ it was the best time anybody ever could have. Today's day and age sucks
Omg!! Forget Breakin...Beat Street was my movie and music!!!! I was 13 and all the kids in the neighborhood thought we were break dancers. Huge crush on Ramon back then❤
Hmmm miss the days where we battle each other with music instead of knives and guns...
What about now you still have a crush on him?😂😁😢😢😢
Yes the good ol days! I hear ya
Beatstreet was better, but the battle tracks with Ice-T are so good...
Sandra Santiago is STILL Gorgeous at 60.. had that mad crush on her back in 1984 on in her Miami Vice day's.
I've watched this easily like 10 times one of thee best movies...
I wasn't even alive when this came out. But as a native new yorker it appealed to me more than anything
I was 4 years old when this movie was released.
These youngins today BETTER watch 👀 and learn
This was my movie😍 the holiday rap battle scene was epic! Rae Dawn Chong Saundra Santiago and Mary Alice has aged beautifully.
Thanks for commenting and sharing your feedback
The Beat Street movie is one of the things from my childhood that inspired me to brush up on my graffiti letters, develop my first tag, plus start writing rhymes. Once I complete my home production equipment setup, I'll be trying to figure how to use everything I have.
I could NEVER get the windmill!!! Loved breakin’ though. … aka “Dazzle Dee” ; )
Beat Street, Breakin, and Flash Dance changed the world.
I WAS BORN N RISED IN THE SOUTH BRONX STREET..... SPITTTTTTTTTTTT THEY JUS GOT FINISH DOIN A BRAND NEW TRAIN HIPHOP YOU DONT STOP........ IM 43 YEARZ OLD N I STILL LOOK AT BEAT STREET TIL THIS DAY......
That small scene in the movie might be the only time I've seen Kool Moe Dee without sunglasses on.
IKR...LOL😁🥰🤣🤣🤣
This dope movie got me to bust my first pare of pumas and I still rock the same kind 30+ years latter. Hip Hop was the best thang in my life back then beside oxygen.
Don't stop, planet rock!
DON'T STOP😛
Rae Dawn Chong. Man I had such a crush on her in the 80's. Could never see enough of Rae . Who else had her pin-up photo ?
Coach B : Yeh... she looked on point in commando 💯
Adam Gordon Good days, pretty girl.
😍
😍😍😍😘
My favorite Movie during my Teen Years.Watched it so many times,i was breakin myself!Oldies but Goldies!
"Eat your eggs before I break your legs": Mother Cora.
Today that line would be considered child abuse and deleted from final cut.
classic....:-)
@@warcamp70 Movies today are way more graphic, no one would consider that line as anything other than the joke it was meant to be.
She doesn't look like the same actress who played the Oracle in the Matrix like the video says, strange.

T.S. Thanks for the post, brings back memories, I love your channel, blessings man!
I luv that movie
I've watched that movie countless times, and never knew Guy was the child of the great Ruby and Ossie.
What an amazing movie and moment in Hip Hop. This is when it was raw and real. Now all we got is mumble rappers and how many likes😕😞
I love this feature film and the music is uniquely good. Never forget... It had changed my live style many years ago.
I used to breakdance when I was a little kid. Same yr. 1994. 🙌
There's a LOT of scenes at the start of this video that were cut from the movie. Wish there was a fan edit/directors cut out there somewhere. Love Beat Street. Seem's a fair bit of "Breakin'" was cut too...
Yes bruv extra footage is needed.
Yeah I forgot those scenes as when the movie trailers showed them. I wish there was an editors cut too.
I Agree.
I read up on this a while back, and apparently the missing scenes got binned, totally don't exist anymore apart from what you can see on here and the original trailer. Damn shame.
Lee & Rae Dawn Chong still look super young!
Classic movie! Awesome video too - thanks for making this!
Just saw this..such an underated movie. A real gem!
Rae Dawn Chong ....omg i was so in love with her. By the way, this mix is magnifecant(best).
That's One Era, that's Unforgettable.
Mary Alice is a Fine actor and l love that Saundra Santiago is included in this vid.
all my friends are gone back in those days' just one is still here.
It hard to realize "🎅 Rapper" was Kool Moe Dee. With him wearing his shades most of the time, the baby he had in the movie was hard to adjust
This is incredible Swoope. Thanks for the upload.
this is one of my favorite favorite & I mean favorite movies of all times brings me back when I used to dance god i miss it :(
Great job assembling this video. And if that's your Planet Rock mix, awesome job on that too. Thanks for posting.
Rip RAMO
Can't stop watching this,you da man Terry the Man !!!!
Classic NYC film. Cooley High Chicago classic and Colors is a LA classic. Those films gave you a true to life guide through those cities and how life were once upon of time. They simply doesn't write nor produce quality films like these anymore.
One of my favorites
Just saw this today 12/04/2018 on MeTV
That's when new york City use to be fun and that's when hip hop use to actually mean something
Damn I thought I was the only one who loved this movie
God blessed break dance for ever !
Guy Davis lives up the street from me.
Great work. Well done. Thanks
I’m watching it right now!
Sinto saudades desse tempo, o clube ainda existe ?
80s breaking dancing is the blueprint of the way people get down today.
Dude who played Lee was athletic as hell...Kool Moe Dee, Doug E Fresh, and Melle Mel in the movie...they did'nt even mention the New York City Breakers or Rock Steady Crew...not too long after I saw the movie in the theatre...I visited New York City for
family reunion and stayed in the Bronx...I was so excited because I grew up in Virginia and I was 12 years old at the time....I was a Hip Hop fanatic ...to be honest, I still am!
I feel in live with break dancing after watching this movie! #classic
Grew up watching this... all this time I had no idea that was Kool Moe Dee playing rapping Santa!
Great video!👍🏻👍🏻
Amazing legend🙏🌹💖😇
Nice! But I wish you had mentioned more of the characters
Left out Leon W. Grant known as “Chollie”
