Boogaloo Shrimp Documentary (2019) | Full Movie

[@robtok1968]

He is literally one of the nicest and most genuine human beings I have ever seen or heard.

[@andrewhaggarty5498]

Michael Boogaloo Shrimp Chambers was my legend and I have studied and tried to copy his moves since I was a kid and saw Breakin 1&2, I am now 51 and still poppin, I will never get tired of watching and listening to this special person. Excellent documentary with great stories I hadn't heard before. I saw Jeffrey Daniels last year in England and they tried to attribute the moonwalk to him there. He is a good dancer but has nothing on Boogaloo Shrimp the master of animation. Love to you Michael ❤

It's actually Bill Bailey that danced the first moonwalk at the Apollo Theater

[@Trump-The-GREATEST]

Finally a respected and well deserved tribute to Michael "Boogaloo Shrimp/Turbo" Chambers! He's like me, never change no matter what! I which there was more to this documentary like when Turbo and Ozone would fly to New York and teach the B-Boys how to Pop n' Lock and in return they would teach them how to Breakdance new moves and would come back home to LA and teach everyone else what they learned from the New York dancers! AMAZING!!!

21:12 -- smoothest moonwalk in the business. you see why michael was checking his style...legendary dancer...humble dude, i've heard nothing but good things about my man.

[@missshannon9790]

Jeffery Daniel of Soul Train then Shalamar was the FIRST to highlight the "moonwalk" on an overseas dance show in the seventies. BEFORE this dude OR Michelle Jackson. People don't do their knowledge OR due diligence anymore.

[@Losbass]

@@missshannon9790Can you point out where the OP comments claim MC was the first to “highlight the moonwalk”

[@cathygiles9480]

I know all y’all didn’t think MJ learned the back slide, moon walk all by himself. Growing up in the 80’s during that “Break Dancing error” no one did it better than Michael Chambers aka boogaloo shrimp. Thanks Michael Chambers for clarifying where MJ got the “Moonwalk “ from. You younger generation will never know how much fun it was growing up in the 80’s.

Michael Chambers may remember this but when my mom was pregnant with me, she was in l.a. while they were filming Breakin. She met him and ozone. Michael rubbed my moms tummy when she was pregnant with me. So in a way, he was the first celebrity I met.

[@shauntewatkins834]

I was today years old when I found out that Turbo was the Erkel bot!

Thanks! What a great Documentary and Michael Chambers so much respect , a humble and gifted performer!

[@IndieRightsMoviesForFree]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much!! Filmmakers will really appreciate it.

[@lindawenzel7865]

Watching Michael Chambers dance was just mesmerizing. He was SOOOOOOOOO fluid with all of his movements and his sense of rhythm was spot on. 80’s Nostalgia. I watch those movies over & over many times. They’re TIMELESS.

[@HULLGRAFFITI]

I was born is a small city in Northen England totally far removed from New York but still a poor working class place and I cannot explain how much that scene gripped us , even in school we had a teacher that loved the movie and we would have the TV rolled in and watch it in class even...Then a bit later as a graff writer travelling about I see that hundreds of thousands of kids had that same experience across the UK...Then you realise this was a global moment for kids.Damn right it should have a documentary !

[@charliewoodlives]

Enjoying the Doc....Boogaloo Shimp Is Legendary

[@eddierascalhaskell4954]

Anybody with the slightest interest in dancing needs to watch this doc. Boogaloo Shrimp is one of the Masters of dance.

[@angelmelendez2468]

Bugalloo Shrimp & Ozone and even Kelly should be in the Hip Hop hall of fame ! Full stop 🛑!! They are legendary and were fundamental to the hip hop and break dancing movement.

[@missshannon9790]

THEY were. She wasn't.

[@EsotericEdutainment]

Amazing to see this at the age of 40. I grew up watching breakin' 1 & 2

[@brandonburke2928]

Most people don't know that he taught Michael Jackson how to moon walk!!!! Living Legend

[@whatdaro]

also MJ "borrowed" his style, buckles, zippers and one glove.

[@Blit-X-TVLive]

I mean... Did you watch the video?

[@MrTonio1764]

Bill Bailey did it first in 1955 an then The Lockers (Rerun from What's Happenin) did it on tv in 1975

[@aprilsnider75]

Jeffrey Daniels from Soul Train taught MJ how to Moonwalk. He called it the Backslide. It was on the Soul Train Doc on VH1

[@Ovniware33]

​@@whatdaroMichael Chambers borrowed his dress style from Banning Pilot's Mascot and Drill team outfits. Phineas Banning is a high-school in Wilmington California where he was from. He lived a block away from me on Watson Avenue with his grandmother in Wilmington CA late 70's early 80's. He missed most of his high-school years there because that's when his career took off and he was no longer able to attend.

[@LolitaStClair]

Thank You Michael so much!

[@annpayton]

*Micheal 'Boogaloo- Shrimp' Chambers* is one of a kind, talented and humble. And just WOAH, of MC teaching MJ those moonwalk moves, the 'Steve Urkel' robotic moves as well as meeting other infamous entertainers!! Keep poplocking everybody!! 😊🎉 Noted : the broom dance routine song were by *Kraftwerk* 'Tour de France' ... 👍🏾

[@Atruwoman]

This was a awesome documentary. I love it❤😊

[@scottmansfield4038]

I was a break dancer in the early eighties and saw Breakin and Breakin 2 in the theaters and was very inspired by them.

[@martinriley106]

Just remember ‘moon walking’ was being done in the early 20th Century. But Michael Chambers (AKA Boogaloo shrimp) just refined it to a technically advanced art form.

Boogaloo Shrimp The Best of The Best Popper Ever

[@Noway673]

I was a kid in 1984.When i saw "Breakin" for the first time I was fascinated with the broom scene with the sounds of Kraft week Tour de France song.Im glad I was a kid at the time.My friends and practiced break dancing with our boombox and card board on the ground.Great times.

[@hiphophistorycanada]

Thank you... Boogaloo Shrimp!

[@mireilleboeli4099]

I really enjoyed watching the documentary. Especially the part where he talks about MJ !I never knew he worked with him and taught him the moonwalk (backslide).Everytime you hear another story who taught Michael Jackson the moonwalk.I always admired Boogaloo Shrimp/Turbo.He had an unique style.Recently I watched the movie Breaki n again ,after I saw it first in 1984.I was 14 back then and loved the movie especially the broom scene.The way they combined breakdancing with ballet and jazz was just amazing!It's nice to know that even when he became famous at such a young age and met all these amazing celebrities , he stayed true to him self.I really love that!!👏👏Keep on dancin brother❤

[@jayscribe7547]

FYI: The room dance didn't top the broom number

[@dancingdog60]

True. And Breakin 2 almost didn't have Shabba Doo. He was going to be replaced because Golan/Globus didn't want to up his pay. They were cheap as hell. Notice Popping Pete and Pop N Taco aren't in Breakin 2? Also, the media had oversaturated the world with (a lot of really bad) breaking and the fad was dying by the time Breakin 2 was released. They had exploited the art form - which still thrives and grows mainly underground. But, this summer the OLYMPICS may revive the fad in the U.S. But there's a serious underground and international breaking community that still goes strong. It's just that little Biff in the mall doesn't know about it.

[@HairGrowthGuru]

As a filmmaker I have to say this is entertaining and very well produced. Great job A1. Full of information that I was not aware of, now to watch Breakin’ lol

[@cosmojonesmusic]

Saw Breakdance (UK title) in Summer '84 (Aged 11), instantly became a Breakdancer because of Turbo.

[@LolitaStClair]

Hello I enjoyed your Video! I always enjoyed Break Dancing back in the days! I grew up Break Dancing in the early 80's ! For a Girl I wasn't so bad at Break Dancing in 1980's!

[@davidkanu4484]

You were very skilful among your pears and others. Yet you were not the lead. How did you manage your ego? Some of the dance like moon walk was from your brother who taught you and you taught Michael Jackson, yet you remained silent about it. Michael was known worldwide yet you were not jealous about it even though some of the styles came from you. I admired at you for living a quiet life. Even in Breakin you were more iconic to me than shabado yet Shabado was the lead but you served faithfully. This taught me a great lesson that even if you are good and better than your leader you need to serve under a leadership Faithfully and with with 51:07 humility.

[@huddieentertainment]

To me Shrimp was the best all around breaker I seen. He could do it all. Wave, poplock, floorwork, knee spin, back spin, uprock, flair. Now there are others who could break and wave better than him but the ones who could , couldnt do both. Like Poppin Taco's wave was crazy! but he couldnt go to the floor. As great as Crazy Legs was, he never waved or popped. There was no one who could do both effectively.

[@humbertojimmy]

What a guy, fantastic life story! I'm 49 and also lived the whole early hip-hop days with intensity (in Europe). Imagine going down in History as the man who taught Michael Jackson his most recognizable move! Wow. The only thing i would have passed (if it had been me) was the White House thing, mostly because i don't support the american War on Drugs stupidity, but other than that, everything he participated was great and had a big cultural influence.

[@RicardoMcknight-lz8og]

No disrespect but Jeffrey Daniels does a great moonwalk/backslide and I saw him do it at a concert. There is a KZbin video that his ex-wife claims she saw Jeffrey Daniels teaching the moonwalk to Michael Jackson kzbin.info/www/bejne/rqm4eqiXjcergLs. In my opinion Boogaloo does the moonwalk better and Michael Jackson's moonwalk looks more like Boogaloo's. His moves are flawless. The jaw-dropping broom dance is ICONIC.
