Newcleus - Jam On It 1984

[@capitalcustoms8037]

Im 53, a grandfather of 6, and former "B-BOY" from Harlem. Original member of The Apache Kings, Zulu Nation (Ch.12/13) and I can still get down. Electric Boogie and all. I might not do well with head spins, but I can hold my own. I can smell the cardboard or linoleum as we lay down our craft. Each and everyone of us had a special move that we coveted. I remember going to different hoods to battle, the parties in the park at night. Growing up in the 80's was a very special time and Im proud to have been a part of it. I am a hip Hop Pioneer as well.

I'm 53 and loved the breakdancing era. I was so excited with this new dance, hi-fi, zx spectrum, and clubbing it. Best years of my life. I couldn't breakdance as it took a crew, the stereo and the right environment. I had one or two people who knew how to body Pop but nowhere near this level. I guess my skill was recording and sampling. As I say, i needed the right crew to excel in this. Thank God for the 80's so awesome!! But still, the memories were awesome

You are giving them too much credit. Before lockdowns, I was 41. Chick dancing like a gymnastics star. Ppl usually would shove tips in my belt. I ask one of the shy djs if he wanted to afterparty at my hot tub. He said, "How about you come out to my hot tub". So I did. Super impressed with all his computer tech. The next morning I asked how old he was. Guessing 35 but I was wrong he was 25. I often get mistaken for younger. But he freaked out. I didn't hear back from him. If the whole club thinks I'm younger since getting into clubs. Like what a wimp he ghosted me. I wanted to pick his mind on all computerized day job things. Nope. I barely was into the after party but their set was exceptional. This club was La Cage, Jeffrey Dahmers old stalking grounds. I could have lied about my age, but I'm a 1978 Vintage model. I'm proud to be from 78.

I was a teen when this was released and breaking was trending. Our high school would open the gym during lunch to give us a safe place to dance. The stands were usually full of kids watching individual and teams challenge each other. Funny how back then beefs were usually resolved on the dance floor, unlike today.

[@williamdavis6780]

You really don't have no idea! I don't say that to be mean, it's just the facts. I mean through a weekend I would have probably eaten like probably 4 tabs (XTC), 2 each night n when the sun come up I would eat blotter acid most of the time n liquid sometimes usually in a McCormack food coloring bottle n taste like Everclear or Tiquila. You definitely want it cut already if you careless. Might not ever come back. For real I can't explain to you how it was n I miss it kinda. The music especially n the memories I have some I don't know how or why but...... Anyway look up New Beat as a genre of music originally started in Belgium n not Germany but the music CROSSED OVER the invisible devide that even though not official New Beat from Belgium it was n is hard core mostly n it was still good but it was different from Belgium but still very good. That is when the tabs blew up like crazy 4 ways for 10 dollars. 4 people could get fucked up for real n not just a little bit either for $2.50 cents n roll balls all night long with your eyeballs in the back of your head. Those that understand understand. Boy a whole lot of people missed the fuck out on that shit. Just saying Brian M.

I can't believe we brought this back in the 90s. And looking back, moving like that was just the best feeling pulling off. New moves, taking this in transforming it into some other things. That just moved the whole dance floor and get everybody going. And doing the tag team in flowing with all the other different types of dancers, even if they were breaking like this, coordinating back-and-forth throughout the night was just such a good feeling.
