The Freshest Kids - A History of the B-Boy

Rating:
Summary: One of the best!
Review: I started listening to hip-hop around '79, when King Tim III and Rappers delight hit the scene. Kids don't really understand how far back hip-hop goes, especially break dancing. This documentary made me proud to have grown up in that era. Now all they need is a film on all the old school acts like, The Treacherous 3, Spoonie Gee, Masterdon, Crash Crew, Disco Four, Jimmy Spicer, Furious Five, Cold Crush Brothers, Fearless Four, Soul Sonic Force and yes even the Sugar Hill Gang. Until Run-DMC popped on the scene in these cats were "IT." Much respect is due these artists. Thats the stuff I came through middle school and halfway throug high school with. Buy this DVD, its a must for any REAL hip-hop fan.

Summary: Hip Hop 101
Review: Not only is this a MUST HAVE for any bboy, but this also one of the best documentries I've seen. From early 70s to present you journey thru the history of bboying while observing some great old footage. Some of the faces Ken Swift made as a kid in a few photos are almost worth the price alone. Learn about where this dance artform started. How it was pilaged by pop culture and still survives in todays underground.
Every aspiring rapper should own this film as well. Know your roots, know the culture!

Summary: an outstanding eye-opener to negligence of the bboy
Review: prior to viewing this film, my idea of breakin' was vague; i thought breakin' was something that just happened in the 80s, died out, and saw resurgeance in presentday media. however, this film gave me insight into a shadowed world of hip-hop and breakdancing, an element of hip hop culture that i see as rich and as pure as rap, scratching and graffiti. sadly enough, the b-boys of yesterday and today don't get much love from society because they were forgotten. having released this video should change that and i recommend any hardcore bboy fan to purchase this video and add it to their collection. THIS VIDEO IS AWESOME AND TRULY GREAT IN ITS ENTIRETY. FURTHERMORE, THE TAPING OF THIS DOCUMENTARY IS ARTISTIC AND CREATIVE. MAY BBOYING LIVE FOREVER AND MUCH LOVE TO THE ROCKSTEADY CREW!!!

Summary: This Is A Piece Of History..... Dont Sleep!
Review: Takin it back to the roots. True New York B-boy History... This is exactly what i've been wanting to see since I started B-Boyin. Know the roots of this nasty dance style. Its full of B-Boy legends both known and unknown by the scene. And besides the bangin main feature, its full of bonus material. Like I said before if you are a B-boy, into hip hop or want to know about a new york underground street movement that turned worldwide in less than 30 years.... DONT SLEEP!!

Summary: You need this....The Ultimate in B-Boy Evolution...
Review: The first time I saw this, my mind was blown. Seriously, this is by far the best break dancing I have ever seen. Everyone I show this to agrees. This DVD should be mandatory viewing for anoyone claiming to be down with Hip-Hop. If you want to be educated, enthralled, and entertained, buy this now! You will not be disapointed. When I teach my Hip-Hop 101 class. This film, 'Scratch', and 'Style Wars' wills be shown. I am utterly fascinated by this movie. It is an excellent product, outlining the evolution of the B-boy...going back to early 70's NYC, with some incredible archival footage of hot breaking and B-boy battles (including the legendary Lincoln Center battle b/t Rock Steady and Dynamic Rockers in '81!)...You must buy this now. I assure, you will not be disapointed...these really were the 'Freshest Kids'.

Summary: yes
Review: The first uncut b-boy battle in the special features section is worth the price of the dvd! The SECOND uncut b-boy battle in the special features section is worth the price of the dvd! And then there is everything else. A better investment than the stockmarket. Breakdancing is treated as a art form, and I feel lucky to have these dancers in my house. I definitely recommend this disc.
