No offense to anyone but that popping kid around 1:00 looks scary as hell. Like that's the kind of shit I have dreams about. Like some crazy cabbage patch kid from the 70's is gonna creep up on me and kill me or something.

DO NOT RUN FROM WISDOM. RUN TOWARDS IT.

If I say a word and you don't know what it means, don't be too lazy to look it up. Don't be afraid to learn new words, don't be afraid to speak other languages, don't be afraid to learn about other cultures. Peace, God bless.

I got to speak with RSC Venum last Sunday and I took down his digits, although he IS considered by B-Boys on the west-side like me to be the next gen. Rock Steady Crew these classic raw footage videos remain undisputed.

Hiya, I was just wondering if anybody has any extra information on this documentary. I am currently researching archive footage for the 32nd rock steady crew anniversary and wanted to know information such as who created this as there are no credits or production names what so ever on the documentary, and if the footage is royalty footage or will cost a lot to use in a TV Show.

I hope you reply back, thanks in advance

Sporgie.

Ok...well i pretty sure this clip is from 81. Crazy Leggs used to sell this as a video called "Rocksteady 81" and sold it under the company Bootleg betty. I don't know who made it, but i bet henery chafant or martha cooper had a role in it. That crazy popper you guys are talking about is named Normski.

Peace
