1
00:00:36,750 --> 00:00:38,807
Beat, Beat, Beat Street
2
00:00:56,151 --> 00:00:58,242
You got to believe in something
3
00:00:58,317 --> 00:01:00,408
You got to believe in someone
4
00:01:00,484 --> 00:01:02,279
You got to have that special something
5
00:01:02,351 --> 00:01:04,317
makes you want to meet the morning sun
6
00:01:04,384 --> 00:01:06,679
'Cause there's people laughing
and people crying
7
00:01:06,750 --> 00:01:09,080
There's people giving up
and people trying
8
00:01:09,151 --> 00:01:11,049
There's people living
and people dying
9
00:01:11,117 --> 00:01:13,140
Nobody seems to know the reason why
10
00:01:13,217 --> 00:01:15,376
It's like a heartbeat
11
00:01:15,784 --> 00:01:17,478
Beat Street
12
00:01:17,584 --> 00:01:19,243
It's like a heartbeat
13
00:01:19,317 --> 00:01:21,681
I'm talkin' about Beat Street
14
00:01:22,518 --> 00:01:24,245
No one said it'd be easy
15
00:01:24,317 --> 00:01:26,874
And people never treat you like they should
16
00:01:26,950 --> 00:01:28,916
You got to get out and go for yourself
17
00:01:28,984 --> 00:01:30,847
But you knew that you always would
18
00:01:30,917 --> 00:01:32,906
It's like a heartbeat
19
00:01:35,484 --> 00:01:37,006
Beat Street
20
00:02:11,351 --> 00:02:13,579
Kenny, let me go with you.
21
00:02:27,684 --> 00:02:29,014
All right.
22
00:02:29,651 --> 00:02:30,810
Fresh.
23
00:02:35,352 --> 00:02:37,681
Ramo, when will you teach me that style?
24
00:02:37,751 --> 00:02:39,411
Practice up on it.
25
00:02:39,718 --> 00:02:41,309
I like you, man.
26
00:02:47,452 --> 00:02:49,543
- I'm going with you.
- Check it out.
27
00:02:49,618 --> 00:02:52,585
Cotton-Field Chants and Hollers.
Very fresh.
28
00:02:52,651 --> 00:02:56,015
- Why can't I go with you, Kenny?
- Do your homework.
29
00:02:56,651 --> 00:02:58,345
Man, you're crazy.
30
00:02:58,684 --> 00:03:03,310
If I take you, I got to bring you back,
and maybe I don't want to come right back.
31
00:03:03,385 --> 00:03:05,907
Maybe I'll meet a female. Come on, let's go.
32
00:03:05,985 --> 00:03:07,349
About time.
33
00:03:10,085 --> 00:03:11,574
Meet a female.
34
00:03:15,918 --> 00:03:17,077
That's bullshit...
35
00:03:17,152 --> 00:03:20,710
'cause you ain't going nowhere
till you bring your records home.
36
00:03:23,819 --> 00:03:25,216
Yo, Mom.
37
00:03:26,385 --> 00:03:29,078
- Where are you going?
- Off to work, Mrs. Kirkland.
38
00:03:29,152 --> 00:03:30,641
It's party night.
39
00:03:30,719 --> 00:03:32,685
- Which is it?
- It's both.
40
00:03:33,085 --> 00:03:35,108
Well, you boys be careful.
41
00:03:36,485 --> 00:03:39,610
- See you later, Momski.
- Kenny, don't get in too late.
42
00:03:40,053 --> 00:03:44,314
Lee, where do you think you're going?
You get in there and do your homework.
43
00:03:44,385 --> 00:03:47,351
- Y'all haven't seen the last of me yet.
- Lee!
44
00:03:54,685 --> 00:03:57,243
Check it out. Fresh. I could use this sound.
45
00:03:57,318 --> 00:03:59,375
It's cold, man. Let's get.
46
00:03:59,819 --> 00:04:01,183
Luis!
47
00:04:01,253 --> 00:04:02,150
Hi.
48
00:04:02,219 --> 00:04:05,673
How about checking out that train
we bombed yesterday?
49
00:04:08,053 --> 00:04:10,382
Jackpot! Come on, fellas!
50
00:04:11,019 --> 00:04:12,416
Slow down.
51
00:04:23,319 --> 00:04:25,444
Merry Christmas, New York.
52
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,145
- Check it out, man.
- "Island paradise."
53
00:04:29,219 --> 00:04:30,707
That's fresh, man.
54
00:04:30,786 --> 00:04:33,082
Get good pictures, I need them for my kid.
55
00:04:33,153 --> 00:04:35,483
- You got it in focus?
- I know what I'm doing.
56
00:04:35,553 --> 00:04:37,485
Ramon, my man, that is bad.
57
00:04:37,553 --> 00:04:40,280
Right! That's the word! Man, that's def!
58
00:04:41,486 --> 00:04:43,849
- That's it, kid.
- Fresh, Ramon!
59
00:04:43,919 --> 00:04:46,112
- King of the line.
- All right.
60
00:04:51,253 --> 00:04:55,345
You see that? That is your baddest burner.
That is my favorite.
61
00:04:55,420 --> 00:04:56,942
It's all right.
62
00:05:01,153 --> 00:05:03,176
- Heads up!
- Yo, Chollie.
63
00:05:03,253 --> 00:05:05,651
What's up, Tony? What's going on?
64
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,379
- Yo, Tony!
- Kenny.
65
00:05:11,086 --> 00:05:14,177
- Make it snappy, we're running behind.
- Right, let's go.
66
00:05:14,253 --> 00:05:15,776
- Yeah.
- Come on.
67
00:05:26,620 --> 00:05:29,711
- Let's go, Double K.
- Yo, Kong. How's it going?
68
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:32,676
King Kong. Angie.
69
00:05:32,753 --> 00:05:34,241
It's about time.
70
00:05:34,319 --> 00:05:38,581
Sorry, we had business to take care of.
But we're here now, all right?
71
00:05:41,753 --> 00:05:43,685
Everything under control, baby?
72
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:46,818
Yo, Pop, how you doing?
73
00:05:49,187 --> 00:05:50,675
All right, go!
74
00:06:03,087 --> 00:06:05,110
Testing, one, two, three.
75
00:06:06,421 --> 00:06:08,011
It's working
76
00:06:08,653 --> 00:06:10,244
It's working
77
00:06:10,554 --> 00:06:14,281
Party people, if you're ready to rock
Let me hear you scream
78
00:06:15,487 --> 00:06:19,579
If you really, really came to party
Then let me hear everybody
79
00:06:19,654 --> 00:06:21,778
Say, "We came to party!"
80
00:06:21,853 --> 00:06:23,819
We came to party!
81
00:06:23,887 --> 00:06:26,149
Everybody put your hands together like this
82
00:06:26,220 --> 00:06:27,709
Come on, clap
83
00:06:28,020 --> 00:06:31,850
Let me hear you clap, everybody clap
84
00:06:32,187 --> 00:06:34,119
Now here's a funky beat
85
00:06:41,087 --> 00:06:43,076
Now here's a scratch beat
86
00:06:50,987 --> 00:06:53,180
Put it all together and make it complete
87
00:06:53,254 --> 00:06:56,743
Break, break, break
88
00:07:04,055 --> 00:07:06,543
Play that beat
Why don't you play it for me?
89
00:07:06,654 --> 00:07:09,176
Play it, kick it, play that beat
90
00:07:09,254 --> 00:07:12,414
Why don't you play it for me?
Play it, kick it
91
00:07:14,155 --> 00:07:17,178
Yo, bust it, bust it.
Why don't you break, man?
92
00:07:19,121 --> 00:07:21,279
Why don't you break for us?
93
00:07:25,487 --> 00:07:26,976
Come on, now!
94
00:07:33,421 --> 00:07:35,411
Come on, baby, get down!
95
00:07:36,422 --> 00:07:37,887
Beat this
96
00:07:50,821 --> 00:07:52,151
All right!
97
00:07:53,621 --> 00:07:56,815
Kenny, there goes Sha-Rock,
Lisa Lee and Debbie D.
98
00:07:58,888 --> 00:08:00,683
Go get their record.
99
00:08:05,288 --> 00:08:07,776
Well, here are three ladies
from our neighborhood
100
00:08:07,854 --> 00:08:10,286
Guaranteed to rock the beat
and rock the beat good
101
00:08:10,355 --> 00:08:12,480
So come on,
Debbie D, Sha-Rock and Lisa Lee
102
00:08:12,555 --> 00:08:14,952
Step up to the front
so all your friends can see
103
00:08:15,021 --> 00:08:18,283
We're all backing you up 100 percent
We know you practiced all week
104
00:08:18,355 --> 00:08:21,344
Now this is it
If you're in favor of what I've said
105
00:08:21,422 --> 00:08:23,547
Everybody say, "Go ahead!"
106
00:08:23,655 --> 00:08:25,018
Go ahead!
107
00:08:25,388 --> 00:08:26,752
Us girls
108
00:08:26,822 --> 00:08:28,549
can boogie, too
109
00:08:29,121 --> 00:08:31,451
We can dance, we can shake it
110
00:08:33,088 --> 00:08:35,384
'Cause us girls
111
00:08:35,655 --> 00:08:37,382
can boogie, too
112
00:08:37,889 --> 00:08:40,787
So come on, girls, let's go break it
113
00:08:40,855 --> 00:08:42,548
Let's go break it
114
00:08:42,622 --> 00:08:44,417
Us girls are the best of friends
115
00:08:44,488 --> 00:08:46,784
If one ain't got no money,
the other one lends
116
00:08:46,855 --> 00:08:49,014
When we go out, we know we look real hot
117
00:08:49,089 --> 00:08:51,577
What the boys want, you know we got
118
00:08:51,889 --> 00:08:55,377
The fly girl Debbie D
Needs someone who can hold my policy
119
00:08:55,455 --> 00:08:57,853
So fellas, move on close
120
00:08:57,922 --> 00:09:00,047
Take me on a cruise and watch me float
121
00:09:00,122 --> 00:09:04,349
Wine and dine my mind, show me I'm fresh
and I'll always let you know Debbie D is best
122
00:09:04,422 --> 00:09:06,650
Sha-Rock's the woman
with the magical touch
123
00:09:06,722 --> 00:09:08,984
I'm like burning fire,
you know I'm just too much
124
00:09:09,056 --> 00:09:11,147
Treat you like a king
In the heat of the night
125
00:09:11,222 --> 00:09:15,245
Romance to the moon if your timing is right
Get your back wet, all soaked in sweat
126
00:09:15,322 --> 00:09:18,152
He says I'm the kind of girl
that he can never forget
127
00:09:18,222 --> 00:09:19,949
Sophisticated is the lady Lisa Lee
128
00:09:20,022 --> 00:09:22,250
To be the man in my life,
you got to be my only
129
00:09:22,322 --> 00:09:24,447
I'll always hold ya secure
In my arms real tight
130
00:09:24,522 --> 00:09:26,545
Squeeze you real good
till you feel just right
131
00:09:26,622 --> 00:09:28,679
Have a heart of gold
I want to share with you
132
00:09:28,755 --> 00:09:31,017
Give you the type of loving
you never been through
133
00:09:31,089 --> 00:09:34,351
And if you dig where we're comin' from
say, "Yeah!"
134
00:09:34,423 --> 00:09:35,514
Yeah!
135
00:09:35,589 --> 00:09:38,816
And if you want to rock this party tonight
say, "Yeah!"
136
00:09:38,889 --> 00:09:40,253
Yeah!
137
00:09:40,322 --> 00:09:41,810
Us, us, us
138
00:09:42,322 --> 00:09:43,810
Us, us, us
139
00:09:44,089 --> 00:09:46,021
'Cause us girls
140
00:09:46,489 --> 00:09:48,216
can boogie, too
141
00:09:48,955 --> 00:09:51,285
We can dance, we can shake it
142
00:09:52,689 --> 00:09:55,211
'Cause us girls
143
00:09:55,356 --> 00:09:57,185
can boogie, too
144
00:09:57,689 --> 00:10:00,246
So come on, girls, let's go break it
145
00:10:02,889 --> 00:10:05,754
Us girls can boogie, too
146
00:10:06,723 --> 00:10:09,052
We can dance, we can shake it
147
00:10:10,790 --> 00:10:13,017
'Cause us girls
148
00:10:13,189 --> 00:10:14,917
can boogie, too
149
00:10:15,423 --> 00:10:17,912
So come on, girls, let's go break it
150
00:10:24,689 --> 00:10:25,916
Chollie.
151
00:10:27,523 --> 00:10:29,148
Do you hear that?
152
00:10:31,289 --> 00:10:32,653
Yeah, man.
153
00:10:33,090 --> 00:10:34,248
It's weird.
154
00:10:44,356 --> 00:10:46,220
What the hell is that?
155
00:10:46,290 --> 00:10:47,915
It's weird, man.
156
00:10:51,956 --> 00:10:53,387
It's spooky.
157
00:10:58,123 --> 00:11:00,146
It's coming from in there.
158
00:11:14,856 --> 00:11:15,981
Tito?
159
00:11:16,057 --> 00:11:18,580
- Tito who?
- Tito Reyes.
160
00:11:18,656 --> 00:11:20,747
What the hell are you doing down here?
161
00:11:20,923 --> 00:11:22,855
I'm looking for him, all right?
162
00:11:22,923 --> 00:11:26,821
He's about this high, plays congas.
I was in the army with him.
163
00:11:26,923 --> 00:11:30,821
- You're looking for him in the basement?
- Este está loco. Let's get out of here.
164
00:11:30,890 --> 00:11:32,186
No, wait.
165
00:11:36,290 --> 00:11:38,415
This is the address, right?
166
00:11:42,857 --> 00:11:47,118
- Sure. Malo's big brother.
- Yeah, but they dipped out a long time ago.
167
00:11:47,190 --> 00:11:49,850
- After the fire.
- What fire? Tito was in a fire?
168
00:11:49,924 --> 00:11:52,389
Tito wasn't in a fire. The building was.
169
00:11:52,457 --> 00:11:55,582
Landlord torched this building
about five times.
170
00:11:55,991 --> 00:11:57,081
Damn.
171
00:11:59,590 --> 00:12:04,386
I've thought about him for almost a year.
Man, he could play them conga drums, too.
172
00:12:04,457 --> 00:12:06,355
We were supposed to get up a band.
173
00:12:06,424 --> 00:12:09,185
It's been my dream to play in a band
in New York.
174
00:12:09,257 --> 00:12:11,951
This ain't New York, this is the Bronx.
175
00:12:13,257 --> 00:12:15,985
Come on, K, let's get back to business.
176
00:12:19,424 --> 00:12:22,857
- Could you give me something to eat?
- You got any cash?
177
00:12:22,924 --> 00:12:24,151
Come on.
178
00:13:13,857 --> 00:13:14,880
What's up?
179
00:13:14,957 --> 00:13:18,117
You're biters. All your homeboys are biters.
180
00:13:18,191 --> 00:13:21,680
- You're all wack. What's up with that?
- What are you talking about?
181
00:13:21,758 --> 00:13:24,781
I never stole moves from you.
Your moves ain't worth it to be bit.
182
00:13:24,858 --> 00:13:26,255
What's up with that, punk?
183
00:13:26,425 --> 00:13:28,516
Punk? Who you calling punk?
184
00:13:40,258 --> 00:13:41,781
That's biting.
185
00:13:43,958 --> 00:13:45,947
Later. Roxy?
186
00:13:47,324 --> 00:13:49,449
- Don't flake.
- Be there.
187
00:14:15,758 --> 00:14:19,781
- Damn Spit! Writes his name on everything.
- Ramo, what you doing?
188
00:14:20,591 --> 00:14:24,819
Lousy bastard, Spit!
That was Luis' best burner.
189
00:14:24,925 --> 00:14:27,084
It's only been running three days.
190
00:14:27,159 --> 00:14:29,455
- Ramo, later for that.
- Come on.
191
00:14:29,526 --> 00:14:31,151
Get on the train.
192
00:15:29,759 --> 00:15:31,247
Good morning.
193
00:15:44,959 --> 00:15:48,050
Ramo's making us
the baddest sweatshirts. Word.
194
00:15:48,459 --> 00:15:51,119
You know the kind that turn inside out?
195
00:15:51,193 --> 00:15:54,182
One side's gonna say "Beat Street"
and our name.
196
00:15:54,260 --> 00:15:56,725
The other side will have curvy lines.
197
00:15:56,793 --> 00:15:59,316
And when I do my backspin...
198
00:15:59,959 --> 00:16:02,618
it'll be the baddest, man. Incredible.
199
00:16:04,492 --> 00:16:09,550
Kenny, why don't you just move that cereal
and lay your whole body across the table?
200
00:16:11,326 --> 00:16:14,451
I thought we'd stopped
dancing on the sidewalk for pennies.
201
00:16:14,527 --> 00:16:18,084
But, Mom. We made $46 last time.
202
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,524
The money is not the issue, Lee.
203
00:16:21,026 --> 00:16:24,254
Sit up, Kenny.
What time did you get in last night?
204
00:16:24,326 --> 00:16:25,882
About midnight.
205
00:16:26,593 --> 00:16:30,025
I'm glad you're still telling me the truth.
Now eat.
206
00:16:35,527 --> 00:16:38,425
What's the big deal about eating oatmeal...
207
00:16:38,826 --> 00:16:41,122
when all I feel is tired for real?
208
00:16:41,193 --> 00:16:44,886
Is my rap too slick, my tongue too quick
my gallant talent like a magic trick?
209
00:16:44,959 --> 00:16:47,425
Eat your eggs before I break your legs.
210
00:16:48,527 --> 00:16:51,687
Now you know where your
gallant talent came from.
211
00:16:53,326 --> 00:16:55,053
Open the door, Lee.
212
00:16:55,126 --> 00:16:56,649
Open the door.
213
00:17:01,627 --> 00:17:03,059
Who goes there?
214
00:17:03,126 --> 00:17:04,752
Chollie, brother.
215
00:17:07,226 --> 00:17:09,385
Who goes there, little brother?
216
00:17:09,460 --> 00:17:12,120
You know I don't want you out so late.
217
00:17:12,226 --> 00:17:14,192
When you do it, Lee does it, too.
218
00:17:14,260 --> 00:17:17,022
Then I've got the both of you
to worry about.
219
00:17:19,460 --> 00:17:22,018
I've already lost one son out there.
220
00:17:22,194 --> 00:17:25,489
There he is, Double K. How you doing?
221
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:28,890
- How are you, Mrs. Kirkland?
- Good morning, Chollie.
222
00:17:30,027 --> 00:17:32,050
You want this toast, man?
223
00:17:33,361 --> 00:17:36,815
Tomorrow, we're loose.
And I got a rocket in my pocket.
224
00:17:37,927 --> 00:17:40,291
Comps to the Roxy.
225
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:45,885
I'm talking major leagues.
226
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:47,426
How did you do that?
227
00:17:47,494 --> 00:17:49,426
Just a little business.
228
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:53,288
If you're going to be a superstar
you have to check out the style.
229
00:17:53,361 --> 00:17:55,088
I've got my own style.
230
00:17:55,161 --> 00:17:58,786
Yeah, but you just need some
of them professional touches.
231
00:17:59,161 --> 00:18:01,956
Chollie, superstar is not a profession.
232
00:18:03,461 --> 00:18:07,484
You can keep your dreams, gentlemen.
But get something to fall back on.
233
00:18:07,561 --> 00:18:09,356
We got to get going.
234
00:18:16,261 --> 00:18:18,124
Yo, Kenny. Yo, Chollie.
235
00:18:18,194 --> 00:18:20,092
What's happening, Lee?
236
00:18:24,294 --> 00:18:26,522
Yo, Chollie. Watch this.
237
00:18:26,994 --> 00:18:28,926
You better practice up.
238
00:18:41,261 --> 00:18:45,125
When we get to the Roxy tonight,
Beat Street breakers are gonna kick ass.
239
00:18:45,194 --> 00:18:48,388
I don't know, little brother.
The Bronx Rockers are tough.
240
00:18:54,461 --> 00:18:56,552
Yo, Ramon, let's go, my man.
241
00:19:00,761 --> 00:19:02,022
Goddamn.
242
00:19:03,195 --> 00:19:05,285
What are you doing? Stop!
243
00:19:05,361 --> 00:19:07,850
Please, don't do this to me. Stop.
244
00:19:07,928 --> 00:19:10,621
Man, I would not put up with that shit.
245
00:19:10,928 --> 00:19:12,723
What are you, crazy?
246
00:19:13,228 --> 00:19:15,625
- You're beautiful.
- Yeah, I'm beautiful.
247
00:19:15,694 --> 00:19:16,955
Fuck him!
248
00:19:17,528 --> 00:19:19,926
He's just helping you stir the paint, brother.
249
00:19:19,995 --> 00:19:24,052
"When are you going to stop
writing on the walls and make some money?
250
00:19:24,128 --> 00:19:26,855
"When are you going to stop tagging
the subway cars?
251
00:19:26,928 --> 00:19:29,394
"When are you going
to make your son legitimate?"
252
00:19:29,462 --> 00:19:30,950
Legitimate, shit.
253
00:19:31,028 --> 00:19:34,824
Just tell him about all the money
you're going to make with me and Kenny.
254
00:19:34,895 --> 00:19:39,123
You know we're gonna have album covers,
posters, T-shirts, buttons...
255
00:19:39,195 --> 00:19:42,423
- Chollie, you're always talking that shit.
- You're damn right.
256
00:19:42,495 --> 00:19:44,358
Talk about something else.
257
00:19:44,429 --> 00:19:47,589
Yeah, let's talk about
bombing subway cars, Ramon.
258
00:19:47,662 --> 00:19:50,423
That's real fresh, brother, real smart.
259
00:19:50,495 --> 00:19:53,790
Why don't we talk about what
a big goddamn deal you're gonna be?
260
00:19:53,861 --> 00:19:56,884
That's all you ever think about anymore.
King of the Hustlers.
261
00:19:56,961 --> 00:19:59,086
And you think like some little kid.
262
00:19:59,162 --> 00:20:00,957
Man, you're so phony.
263
00:20:01,429 --> 00:20:03,019
What are you doing?
264
00:20:03,095 --> 00:20:05,220
Live from the Bronx, it's the 6:00 news
265
00:20:05,295 --> 00:20:07,853
Tapin' two little homeboys singin' the blues
266
00:20:07,928 --> 00:20:09,985
One talkin' paint, the other one money
267
00:20:10,062 --> 00:20:12,893
And they're so full of shit
that it ain't even funny
268
00:20:12,961 --> 00:20:14,825
Take it away, Walter.
269
00:20:14,896 --> 00:20:16,623
Let's kick his ass.
270
00:20:17,228 --> 00:20:18,717
You gonna kick what?
271
00:20:34,163 --> 00:20:36,390
This could be the night
272
00:20:37,429 --> 00:20:41,384
Gonna find the special one
to make you feel all right
273
00:20:41,929 --> 00:20:44,486
This could be the night
274
00:20:45,529 --> 00:20:49,791
We'll be living in a dream
until the morning light
275
00:20:50,896 --> 00:20:53,021
I'm talking to you, ladies
276
00:20:54,096 --> 00:20:56,755
Listen to me carefully
277
00:20:58,595 --> 00:21:01,686
I know you're gonna find what you want
278
00:21:02,229 --> 00:21:04,922
If you're waiting patiently
279
00:21:06,629 --> 00:21:09,527
Don't make your move too fast
280
00:21:11,129 --> 00:21:14,891
If you want this night to last forever
281
00:21:16,096 --> 00:21:18,755
Love is waiting for you
282
00:21:22,530 --> 00:21:24,722
This could be the night
283
00:21:25,695 --> 00:21:29,752
Gonna find the special one
to make you feel all right
284
00:21:30,263 --> 00:21:32,627
This could be the night
285
00:21:33,730 --> 00:21:37,787
We'll be living in a dream
until the morning light
286
00:21:38,396 --> 00:21:41,226
Do you feel the magic
287
00:21:42,730 --> 00:21:45,127
Everywhere tonight?
288
00:21:46,763 --> 00:21:49,627
If you are gonna give all your love
289
00:21:50,463 --> 00:21:52,793
Make sure that the feeling's right
290
00:21:54,296 --> 00:21:56,819
This could be the night
291
00:22:00,430 --> 00:22:02,453
Don't you make your move too fast
292
00:22:02,530 --> 00:22:04,393
This could be the night
293
00:22:06,863 --> 00:22:09,829
Tonight's gonna be for you and me
294
00:22:10,030 --> 00:22:11,996
Hold it. He with you?
295
00:22:12,064 --> 00:22:14,030
Yeah. He's my bodyguard.
296
00:22:16,630 --> 00:22:17,653
Hi.
297
00:22:28,663 --> 00:22:31,925
What you doing, man?
How come you don't frisk them?
298
00:22:44,264 --> 00:22:45,389
Tracy!
299
00:22:45,464 --> 00:22:46,690
Robert!
300
00:23:03,297 --> 00:23:06,593
I'll see you all later.
I got a battle to attend to.
301
00:23:08,230 --> 00:23:10,219
Yo, Double K, chill out.
302
00:23:22,863 --> 00:23:24,886
All right! Get down!
303
00:23:30,064 --> 00:23:34,292
So come on, everybody, everybody come on
Let's all get together and rock along
304
00:23:34,364 --> 00:23:36,626
Twist and scream and shout
305
00:23:36,697 --> 00:23:38,492
Twist and scream and shout
306
00:23:38,564 --> 00:23:42,690
Now do what you came here to
In order to get frantic, you got to get loose
307
00:23:42,764 --> 00:23:44,855
Say, say what, everybody say
308
00:23:44,931 --> 00:23:46,988
Say, say what, everybody say
309
00:23:47,065 --> 00:23:48,587
It's a frantic
310
00:23:49,065 --> 00:23:50,360
Situation
311
00:23:50,964 --> 00:23:52,224
Worldwide
312
00:23:52,531 --> 00:23:54,292
It's a musical drive
313
00:23:55,230 --> 00:23:56,628
Emancipation
314
00:23:56,764 --> 00:23:58,525
It's a proclamation
315
00:23:59,165 --> 00:24:00,994
All across the nation
316
00:24:01,531 --> 00:24:03,588
It's a heavy situation
317
00:24:14,497 --> 00:24:18,021
Frantic, frantic, frantic
Now Shango and Soul Sonic
318
00:24:18,098 --> 00:24:22,224
Two groups of heavy knowledge
are trying to educate you
319
00:24:22,298 --> 00:24:24,525
So you won't become a frantic fool
320
00:24:24,597 --> 00:24:28,552
Vibration of the music,
On the dance floor, fantasy illusion
321
00:24:28,631 --> 00:24:33,064
A breakin' beat, electric boogaloo
Street dancing's now a cultural school
322
00:24:57,398 --> 00:25:00,592
Now sing, now sing
323
00:25:45,232 --> 00:25:46,959
Yo, Jazzy! Jazzy J!
324
00:25:47,298 --> 00:25:49,730
What's happening? What's up, man?
325
00:25:50,465 --> 00:25:53,522
What's up, Double K?
What's going on, man? All right.
326
00:25:55,132 --> 00:25:56,995
Come here. Come on up.
327
00:25:57,932 --> 00:26:00,194
Come on up and check this out.
328
00:26:21,032 --> 00:26:22,191
Bronx Rockers.
329
00:26:22,266 --> 00:26:23,357
Gino.
330
00:26:24,266 --> 00:26:25,493
Come on.
331
00:26:26,865 --> 00:26:29,457
There's Beat Street. Let's serve them.
332
00:26:29,533 --> 00:26:31,828
The Bronx Rockers are here, man.
333
00:26:33,066 --> 00:26:34,964
It's Beat Street, man.
334
00:26:35,499 --> 00:26:37,556
They're gonna battle, man.
335
00:26:43,865 --> 00:26:45,161
Do it!
336
00:27:49,633 --> 00:27:51,963
Break dancing's where it's at
337
00:28:02,633 --> 00:28:04,259
Say what?
338
00:28:06,900 --> 00:28:08,230
Hit me
339
00:28:08,733 --> 00:28:10,666
We all take
340
00:28:10,733 --> 00:28:12,700
Energy
341
00:28:12,766 --> 00:28:14,630
San Francisco
342
00:28:14,700 --> 00:28:15,723
And Zimbabwe
343
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:17,789
Break dancing's where it's at
344
00:28:26,801 --> 00:28:28,664
Say, where it's at
345
00:28:48,467 --> 00:28:49,660
Break, break
346
00:30:13,068 --> 00:30:14,864
Come on, Crazy baby.
347
00:30:16,902 --> 00:30:18,868
Crazy, my man! Do it!
348
00:30:25,968 --> 00:30:28,433
Break, break, break, break, break
349
00:30:38,002 --> 00:30:39,661
Let's go, Kuriaki!
350
00:31:22,502 --> 00:31:24,331
Come on, Beat Street!
351
00:31:55,569 --> 00:31:57,501
Little brother was hot.
352
00:31:57,836 --> 00:32:00,996
The Roxy's having auditions
next Tuesday, my man.
353
00:32:01,102 --> 00:32:05,035
- We're gonna get you in here, mark my word.
- Baby, let's dance.
354
00:32:05,202 --> 00:32:07,134
All right, let's dance.
355
00:32:13,702 --> 00:32:17,498
Hi, I'm Tracy Carlson from City College.
What's your name?
356
00:32:17,569 --> 00:32:19,126
Hello, my name's Lee.
357
00:32:19,202 --> 00:32:21,192
- You're a wonderful breaker.
- Thank you.
358
00:32:21,269 --> 00:32:24,861
I like you a lot.
Can you give me your phone number?
359
00:32:52,303 --> 00:32:53,394
Damn!
360
00:32:54,536 --> 00:32:57,969
- Why'd Spit do it, man?
- 'Cause he can't do no better.
361
00:32:58,036 --> 00:33:01,127
Like, he used to do these tags
that were just stupid.
362
00:33:01,203 --> 00:33:04,930
They were so lame, everybody thought
they were already messed up.
363
00:33:05,003 --> 00:33:08,026
So now, he's gonna go over
everybody else's stuff.
364
00:33:08,103 --> 00:33:10,728
Man, somebody needs to break his hands.
365
00:33:10,803 --> 00:33:13,235
Does anybody know who this guy is?
366
00:33:13,570 --> 00:33:15,058
Nobody knows.
367
00:33:17,437 --> 00:33:18,902
Check it out.
368
00:33:22,170 --> 00:33:23,659
It's so white.
369
00:33:24,303 --> 00:33:25,792
It's so clean!
370
00:33:28,603 --> 00:33:30,159
Ramo, we gotta.
371
00:33:31,503 --> 00:33:34,196
All you ever talk about is white trains.
372
00:33:35,503 --> 00:33:36,901
We gotta go.
373
00:33:59,603 --> 00:34:03,161
If I get in that show of theirs,
ain't gonna be nothing like it.
374
00:34:03,236 --> 00:34:06,067
Just let us do all the talking about business.
375
00:34:06,137 --> 00:34:08,364
But I don't need help.
I can do my own talking.
376
00:34:08,437 --> 00:34:10,699
We're all going in with you, Lee.
377
00:34:10,770 --> 00:34:13,100
She didn't invite nobody but me.
378
00:34:20,237 --> 00:34:22,464
Little brother, this is the big time.
379
00:34:22,537 --> 00:34:26,492
If you want to be part of their show,
your manager has to protect your interests.
380
00:34:26,570 --> 00:34:29,002
What if they want to take you on the road?
381
00:34:29,071 --> 00:34:31,901
How about some extra money
if they put you on TV?
382
00:34:31,970 --> 00:34:33,799
You think about that?
383
00:34:50,870 --> 00:34:52,427
Check that out.
384
00:35:10,304 --> 00:35:11,565
Hold it.
385
00:35:13,638 --> 00:35:15,194
Tracy, hold it.
386
00:35:20,404 --> 00:35:23,859
Tracy, the tempo on this section
is a little slow...
387
00:35:23,938 --> 00:35:25,301
Yo, Tracy!
388
00:35:26,038 --> 00:35:28,162
Lee! Come on up.
389
00:35:28,237 --> 00:35:29,999
Bring your friends!
390
00:35:30,371 --> 00:35:34,201
That's the guy that I met. The dancer.
He's a fabulous dancer.
391
00:36:09,205 --> 00:36:13,194
Thank you so much. Thank you, too, Tracy.
It's a wonderful idea.
392
00:36:13,272 --> 00:36:16,795
We're going to have a discussion now,
but you're all welcome to stay.
393
00:36:16,871 --> 00:36:20,304
And Tracy knows where to reach you
with tickets for our performance.
394
00:36:20,372 --> 00:36:22,565
I want to check something out.
395
00:36:22,638 --> 00:36:25,763
My brother ain't here
to be in your show, is he?
396
00:36:26,138 --> 00:36:29,195
I'm afraid this performance
is limited to our students.
397
00:36:29,272 --> 00:36:32,568
- How come no one told him that?
- I thought they had.
398
00:36:33,138 --> 00:36:35,502
I made it perfectly clear to Lee.
399
00:36:35,639 --> 00:36:37,934
That's cool. Ain't no big deal.
400
00:36:38,005 --> 00:36:41,199
I've never been on TV before,
so if you just flip on that tape...
401
00:36:41,272 --> 00:36:44,602
I don't think so. Maybe tomorrow,
if you come back, we can...
402
00:36:44,672 --> 00:36:47,433
- But I don't understand.
- We're too busy now.
403
00:36:47,505 --> 00:36:50,096
Wait a minute. He can't see the tape?
404
00:36:50,172 --> 00:36:52,798
After you all check him out
like he's some freak?
405
00:36:52,872 --> 00:36:55,702
- Wait a minute...
- You wait a minute, mister.
406
00:36:55,772 --> 00:36:58,932
Lady, you're showing people
how you down with breakin'...
407
00:36:59,005 --> 00:37:02,438
and that's bullshit,
because you ain't down with nothing.
408
00:37:02,505 --> 00:37:04,403
And you looked so proud.
409
00:37:04,472 --> 00:37:07,836
"I found that little nigger myself.
Do I get an A, teacher?"
410
00:37:07,939 --> 00:37:11,735
You're like all the biters.
You just take a bite and leave the rest.
411
00:37:17,205 --> 00:37:19,296
- Our tape!
- Let him have it.
412
00:37:56,605 --> 00:37:57,798
Linda.
413
00:37:58,039 --> 00:37:59,471
Little runt.
414
00:38:02,039 --> 00:38:03,698
Carmen!
415
00:38:08,406 --> 00:38:09,565
Ramon!
416
00:38:11,339 --> 00:38:13,567
Where have you been all week?
417
00:38:21,006 --> 00:38:22,472
I missed you.
418
00:38:23,106 --> 00:38:25,504
I had some stuff to take care of.
419
00:38:25,606 --> 00:38:27,071
Yeah, I know.
420
00:38:27,706 --> 00:38:30,035
I've been wanting to talk to you.
421
00:38:30,740 --> 00:38:33,365
- Where's Julian?
- He's in the kitchen.
422
00:38:33,740 --> 00:38:36,501
- I brought a gift for him.
- You did?
423
00:38:42,273 --> 00:38:44,068
Hello, Mrs. Cavarro.
424
00:38:44,673 --> 00:38:46,662
Here's your daddy.
425
00:38:46,740 --> 00:38:48,228
That's a joke.
426
00:38:48,706 --> 00:38:51,297
How can you even look him in the face?
427
00:38:52,306 --> 00:38:53,465
Ramon.
428
00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:57,705
It's so beautiful.
429
00:38:58,140 --> 00:39:01,196
A little T-shirt doesn't make up for anything.
430
00:39:02,406 --> 00:39:04,872
When will you take
some responsibility, Ramon?
431
00:39:04,940 --> 00:39:07,337
- I'll put it on him right now.
- Is everybody deaf?
432
00:39:07,406 --> 00:39:10,032
- Mommy, please don't start.
- I have to know why...
433
00:39:26,274 --> 00:39:27,603
I'm sorry.
434
00:39:37,706 --> 00:39:40,002
You can see how bad it is here.
435
00:39:43,541 --> 00:39:45,234
Take us somewhere.
436
00:39:45,307 --> 00:39:47,432
I got no place to take you.
437
00:39:47,907 --> 00:39:49,396
Please, Ramon.
438
00:39:50,574 --> 00:39:52,233
We'll be together.
439
00:39:52,641 --> 00:39:54,936
- Where?
- Anywhere.
440
00:40:06,507 --> 00:40:07,972
Two more.
441
00:40:08,574 --> 00:40:10,096
Now single count.
442
00:40:10,174 --> 00:40:14,163
Reach left and right,
and left, and right. Come on.
443
00:40:16,374 --> 00:40:18,499
Hold on now. Just four more.
444
00:40:42,240 --> 00:40:44,763
- Yes?
- Is this Lee Kirkland's house?
445
00:40:44,841 --> 00:40:47,466
I'm Lee's mother. What you want him for?
446
00:40:47,541 --> 00:40:49,507
I'd like to talk to him.
447
00:40:52,275 --> 00:40:54,900
Maybe you want to talk to his brother.
448
00:40:55,741 --> 00:40:57,969
I'd like to talk to him, too.
449
00:40:58,041 --> 00:40:59,939
- Come on in.
- Thank you.
450
00:41:29,941 --> 00:41:32,407
This young lady's looking for Lee.
451
00:41:33,675 --> 00:41:34,935
For what?
452
00:41:43,908 --> 00:41:46,374
Could you turn that down a little?
453
00:41:51,341 --> 00:41:53,102
Lee's out right now.
454
00:41:53,375 --> 00:41:56,364
If you want,
I can tell him what you came for.
455
00:41:56,742 --> 00:41:58,867
Exactly what did I come for?
456
00:41:59,241 --> 00:42:01,104
To get your tape back.
457
00:42:03,275 --> 00:42:05,003
Who do you think you are?
458
00:42:05,075 --> 00:42:07,132
You wreck my class with bullshit about me...
459
00:42:07,208 --> 00:42:09,674
taking a bite out of your brother
and leaving the rest.
460
00:42:09,742 --> 00:42:13,105
Let me tell you something.
I'm not a taker, and I'm not a user.
461
00:42:13,175 --> 00:42:15,801
I told Lee exactly what was involved.
462
00:42:16,475 --> 00:42:19,600
He's out right now.
I don't know what to tell you.
463
00:42:19,675 --> 00:42:21,834
You just tell him I came by.
464
00:42:22,875 --> 00:42:24,773
I know where Lee's at.
465
00:42:25,809 --> 00:42:26,968
Where?
466
00:42:27,508 --> 00:42:31,168
It's kind of dangerous.
I mean, you might not be up to it.
467
00:42:32,109 --> 00:42:34,939
- Let me be the judge of that.
- Yes, ma'am.
468
00:42:42,608 --> 00:42:44,836
Can I ask what you were doing?
469
00:42:46,076 --> 00:42:47,939
Mixing, just trying some new stuff.
470
00:42:48,909 --> 00:42:50,239
Like what?
471
00:42:51,076 --> 00:42:54,372
It's kind of hard to explain.
Do you want to hear something?
472
00:42:54,443 --> 00:42:55,533
Yeah.
473
00:44:55,010 --> 00:44:57,840
See, I tape anything I think sounds good.
474
00:44:57,910 --> 00:45:01,365
You know, add it with a lot of other stuff.
Water coming off a pipe...
475
00:45:01,444 --> 00:45:04,410
making that tick-tock sound.
Add a little reverb.
476
00:45:04,477 --> 00:45:05,840
Or this...
477
00:45:11,110 --> 00:45:12,701
That's my piece.
478
00:45:13,110 --> 00:45:16,201
- You mean you wrote that?
- Why, is that strange?
479
00:45:16,277 --> 00:45:17,334
No.
480
00:45:18,010 --> 00:45:19,976
That is some heavy shit.
481
00:45:20,077 --> 00:45:23,202
You know, it's not so different
from what you're doing here.
482
00:45:23,277 --> 00:45:24,868
How do you mean?
483
00:45:25,043 --> 00:45:28,567
When I wrote this,
I tried to combine different styles...
484
00:45:28,710 --> 00:45:31,175
- but it's really hard.
- Tell me about it.
485
00:45:31,277 --> 00:45:35,505
I can't get the sounds in my head on tape.
I haven't got the right equipment.
486
00:45:35,577 --> 00:45:38,202
You should come to school.
We have great equipment.
487
00:45:38,277 --> 00:45:42,040
- I'd introduce you to the studio guy.
- You'd really do that?
488
00:45:42,410 --> 00:45:43,398
Yeah.
489
00:45:45,078 --> 00:45:47,635
You still feel like being dangerous?
490
00:45:49,544 --> 00:45:50,805
Come on.
491
00:45:51,343 --> 00:45:52,775
You sure now?
492
00:45:53,744 --> 00:45:55,005
Let's go.
493
00:46:29,344 --> 00:46:31,071
Where are we going?
494
00:46:36,711 --> 00:46:40,143
Down there? I'm not going down there.
You're crazy.
495
00:46:40,745 --> 00:46:44,643
It's not too far. This time of night,
locals run every 16 minutes.
496
00:46:44,711 --> 00:46:47,835
- There's lights all the way.
- I'm not going down there.
497
00:46:47,911 --> 00:46:50,241
I'm not gonna let you get hurt.
498
00:46:50,378 --> 00:46:51,742
I promise.
499
00:46:59,545 --> 00:47:03,136
There's no electricity this side of the tracks.
Stay right with me.
500
00:47:03,211 --> 00:47:07,041
When the spur comes in up ahead,
just watch where I'm walking.
501
00:47:14,711 --> 00:47:16,301
Right over here.
502
00:47:30,478 --> 00:47:31,671
Train!
503
00:47:39,445 --> 00:47:40,843
A white one.
504
00:47:52,345 --> 00:47:53,867
Train's coming.
505
00:47:54,379 --> 00:47:55,639
Come on.
506
00:48:17,546 --> 00:48:19,909
- Yo, Ramo.
- Yo, check this out.
507
00:48:19,978 --> 00:48:24,001
All right. Get back up, guys.
I saw a cop on that last train.
508
00:48:24,079 --> 00:48:25,238
Hurry!
509
00:48:26,379 --> 00:48:29,106
- Hi, Lee.
- Hi. How you doing?
510
00:48:29,179 --> 00:48:31,668
I dig it. This is really fresh, Ramo.
511
00:48:31,746 --> 00:48:33,143
Where'd you learn to do this?
512
00:48:33,212 --> 00:48:35,644
- English class.
- No, I'm serious.
513
00:48:35,712 --> 00:48:36,735
No kidding.
514
00:48:36,813 --> 00:48:40,040
I used to trace these old DC comics,
'cause it was so boring.
515
00:48:40,112 --> 00:48:43,875
That's where I figured out
all the streaks and blurs and shit.
516
00:48:43,946 --> 00:48:48,139
Not too high on that cloud, all right?
You're gonna go over that Phase 2.
517
00:48:48,212 --> 00:48:50,201
Come on, I ain't stupid.
518
00:48:50,312 --> 00:48:51,972
What's Phase 2?
519
00:48:53,079 --> 00:48:57,171
Phase 2 is the guy who practically
invented the idea of burners.
520
00:48:57,479 --> 00:49:00,274
Before that,
everything was just these little tags.
521
00:49:00,345 --> 00:49:02,073
A tag is your name.
522
00:49:02,512 --> 00:49:03,910
And this...
523
00:49:04,212 --> 00:49:05,838
That's a burner.
524
00:49:15,379 --> 00:49:16,777
Pack it up!
525
00:49:57,212 --> 00:49:59,371
Want to get something to eat?
526
00:49:59,446 --> 00:50:01,344
No. We got some plans.
527
00:50:52,713 --> 00:50:53,940
How about you?
528
00:50:54,013 --> 00:50:57,002
Do you have brothers and sisters,
besides Lee?
529
00:50:57,080 --> 00:50:59,012
I had an older brother.
530
00:50:59,346 --> 00:51:00,835
What happened?
531
00:51:02,580 --> 00:51:06,535
He was in this big gang in the Bronx.
He was into some bad shit.
532
00:51:07,147 --> 00:51:09,544
When the cops came down on them...
533
00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:13,768
a lot of guys got wasted,
and Franklin was one of them.
534
00:51:15,113 --> 00:51:18,738
I was 12 years old, and I was mad.
I wanted to go to war.
535
00:51:19,347 --> 00:51:22,313
But my friends told me that that was stupid.
536
00:51:24,414 --> 00:51:26,811
Anyway, gangs died out back then.
537
00:51:30,380 --> 00:51:31,845
Are you cold?
538
00:51:33,414 --> 00:51:34,437
No.
539
00:51:38,213 --> 00:51:40,179
Do you have a boyfriend?
540
00:51:42,247 --> 00:51:43,611
Not really.
541
00:53:48,014 --> 00:53:50,310
What are you doing here?
You have a home?
542
00:53:50,381 --> 00:53:53,347
Damn, you smell good. I'd say you got up.
543
00:53:54,481 --> 00:53:57,606
Be cool, Kenny. Let me hear the details.
544
00:53:57,815 --> 00:53:59,644
Kenny, was she good?
545
00:53:59,715 --> 00:54:01,237
- What?
- Man!
546
00:54:01,582 --> 00:54:05,412
Little brother might have to learn
that information someday.
547
00:54:05,481 --> 00:54:08,504
Turn me loose right now,
or you'd better never let go.
548
00:54:08,582 --> 00:54:12,344
See that, Lee? Man gets a little nooky,
he cops an attitude.
549
00:54:12,415 --> 00:54:14,211
He already has an attitude.
550
00:54:14,481 --> 00:54:16,970
Damn it! You're gonna give me rabies.
551
00:54:17,049 --> 00:54:20,503
You keep your voice down.
What are you doing here, man?
552
00:54:21,082 --> 00:54:24,105
Opportunity is beating on our door, man.
553
00:54:24,249 --> 00:54:27,806
DJ at the Burning Spear
got his fingers smashed by his little brother.
554
00:54:27,882 --> 00:54:29,848
Slammed 'em in a window.
555
00:54:29,915 --> 00:54:32,745
We'll be in Kool Herc's office
before Kool Herc.
556
00:54:32,815 --> 00:54:36,179
- Kenny, tell me how she feels.
- Shut your dumb mouth.
557
00:54:38,648 --> 00:54:41,705
Sounds to me like Double K is in love.
558
00:54:43,349 --> 00:54:46,837
Better get some sleep, brother.
We got work to do.
559
00:55:01,949 --> 00:55:05,006
It's a shame about
Super Ease's hands and all...
560
00:55:05,082 --> 00:55:07,071
but you're gonna love Double K.
561
00:55:07,149 --> 00:55:10,673
He is the baddest,
the freshest young DJ in the Bronx.
562
00:55:10,749 --> 00:55:12,237
He better be.
563
00:55:12,649 --> 00:55:14,308
Funk
564
00:55:26,082 --> 00:55:27,981
Ain't it funky now?
565
00:56:01,283 --> 00:56:04,680
- You think you got it together?
- Yeah, man, it's chill.
566
00:56:05,250 --> 00:56:07,545
All right, you people get ready to cheer
567
00:56:07,616 --> 00:56:09,946
For the Christmas show
at the Burning Spear
568
00:56:10,016 --> 00:56:14,381
All you hip-hops are in for a treat
'cause Santa Claus is on Beat Street
569
00:56:23,683 --> 00:56:25,547
Open up your door
570
00:56:25,616 --> 00:56:30,413
I'm Santa Claus, and guess what, y'all?
I got something to show
571
00:56:30,483 --> 00:56:34,972
I came to bring some Christmas spirit
I got a big bag, now guess what's in it
572
00:56:35,050 --> 00:56:37,482
Something for the rich
and something for the poor
573
00:56:37,550 --> 00:56:39,641
So Merry Christmas and ho, ho, ho!
574
00:56:39,716 --> 00:56:41,978
"Ho, ho, ho, Merry Christmas", my foot
575
00:56:42,050 --> 00:56:45,278
I'm gonna tell you what Santa really put
Under my so-called tree
576
00:56:45,350 --> 00:56:48,407
But in reality looked like nothing
but a decorated pole to me
577
00:56:48,483 --> 00:56:50,779
Man, you talk about a tree,
it makes me wonder
578
00:56:50,849 --> 00:56:53,338
'Cause I never had a tree
to put anything under
579
00:56:53,417 --> 00:56:57,509
If I ever did luck up and get a tree
There was never anything under it for me
580
00:56:57,584 --> 00:56:59,812
Man, y'all should be glad that I didn't quit
581
00:56:59,884 --> 00:57:02,441
'Cause I'm gettin' too old
for this Santa Claus shit
582
00:57:02,517 --> 00:57:04,847
Y'all think I'm gettin' presents
made for free?
583
00:57:04,917 --> 00:57:06,849
I got to pay them elves, nobody payin' me
584
00:57:06,917 --> 00:57:11,212
You big fat whale, you might as well quit
'cause I can name 100 presents I didn't get
585
00:57:11,283 --> 00:57:13,681
And if I did get a present
it'd be a hand-me-down
586
00:57:13,750 --> 00:57:16,079
I got this for Christmas
Now how'd that sound?
587
00:57:16,150 --> 00:57:18,241
It sounds good to me
'cause I'm about to freeze
588
00:57:18,317 --> 00:57:20,579
Want to see something?
Look at the bottom of these
589
00:57:20,650 --> 00:57:22,775
Me and my brothers can't go out
at the same time
590
00:57:22,850 --> 00:57:24,941
A coat that's theirs
is a coat that's mine
591
00:57:25,017 --> 00:57:29,346
I know one thing, y'all better get off my neck
And wait till you get your welfare check
592
00:57:29,417 --> 00:57:31,906
Go on down to the office
and stand on the line
593
00:57:31,984 --> 00:57:33,950
Better hurry up, see, I got mine
594
00:57:34,017 --> 00:57:36,539
Jingle jangle
595
00:57:36,617 --> 00:57:38,344
Jingle for the poor
596
00:57:38,550 --> 00:57:40,948
And once you get your welfare check
597
00:57:41,017 --> 00:57:43,313
Y'all can kiss my mistletoe
598
00:57:52,117 --> 00:57:54,674
That's why the presents
keep getting mixed up
599
00:57:54,750 --> 00:57:56,943
'Cause year after year, you keep fucking up
600
00:57:57,017 --> 00:57:59,279
And now I know why,
'cause you're always drunk
601
00:57:59,351 --> 00:58:03,783
- Instead of G.I. Joe, you send me this junk
- That ain't a G.I. Joe, that's a G.I. Jerk
602
00:58:03,850 --> 00:58:08,180
With a kung fu grip that don't even work
So all I did was just put him away
603
00:58:08,251 --> 00:58:10,308
'cause my G.I. Joe looked G.I. Gay
604
00:58:10,384 --> 00:58:13,077
That's why you don't get presents
'cause you're ingrates
605
00:58:13,151 --> 00:58:15,481
If G.I. Joe's gay
what difference does it make?
606
00:58:15,551 --> 00:58:17,812
He's just a doll,
ain't too much he can do
607
00:58:17,884 --> 00:58:19,907
If you ask me, boy,
I ain't too sure about you
608
00:58:19,984 --> 00:58:23,916
Listen, bloat-o, with your big fat suit
Next time say no, don't send no substitute
609
00:58:23,984 --> 00:58:26,712
Because I asked you for a beat box
and you know what I got?
610
00:58:26,784 --> 00:58:29,751
Douggie Fresh
You know, that kid from down the block?
611
00:58:42,217 --> 00:58:44,615
For a facsimile, we must admit
612
00:58:44,685 --> 00:58:46,981
Douggie Fresh is good
and made a perfect fit
613
00:58:47,051 --> 00:58:49,609
He's the only reason
why we weren't totally mad
614
00:58:49,685 --> 00:58:53,139
Without Douggie,
our Christmas would have been really sad
615
00:58:53,751 --> 00:58:58,149
Go sing Silent Night and Jingle Bells
And all those Christmas rhymes
616
00:58:58,217 --> 00:59:02,775
'Cause nobody gives a shit
About a reindeer and hard times
617
00:59:02,851 --> 00:59:07,181
You just jingle and jangle
And hang out with the poor
618
00:59:07,618 --> 00:59:11,880
And when you get your welfare check
You can buy reindeer by the score
619
00:59:11,952 --> 00:59:14,747
Well, let's get Douggie Fresh
And Magnificent Force
620
00:59:14,818 --> 00:59:16,443
And head on out the door
621
00:59:16,518 --> 00:59:21,008
And leave these party people singing
Jingle jangle for the poor
622
00:59:21,085 --> 00:59:25,449
Sing jingle jangle
Jingle jangle with the poor
623
00:59:26,118 --> 00:59:29,777
Jingle jangle, jingle with the poor
624
00:59:30,685 --> 00:59:32,651
Jingle jangle
625
00:59:32,851 --> 00:59:35,079
Jingle jangle with the poor
626
00:59:42,785 --> 00:59:44,717
What are you doing next weekend?
627
00:59:44,785 --> 00:59:46,842
- I'm free.
- No, you're not.
628
00:59:55,918 --> 00:59:57,350
Let's dance.
629
01:02:07,353 --> 01:02:10,717
Tell your mother
Pedro wants me to work late tonight.
630
01:02:12,153 --> 01:02:14,278
Carmen needs to stay with us.
631
01:02:15,186 --> 01:02:19,051
- We have no bed for her. You know that.
- She can stay with me.
632
01:02:21,420 --> 01:02:23,545
You are not married to her.
633
01:02:25,253 --> 01:02:27,549
If I marry her, she can stay with me?
634
01:02:27,620 --> 01:02:30,313
She can stay in the place
that you make for her...
635
01:02:30,386 --> 01:02:32,012
if you was a man.
636
01:02:32,087 --> 01:02:33,450
I am a man.
637
01:02:34,987 --> 01:02:36,146
A man?
638
01:02:37,386 --> 01:02:39,511
A man takes care of his own.
639
01:02:41,353 --> 01:02:42,944
A man has a job.
640
01:02:43,453 --> 01:02:47,250
He's not a criminal who goes around
scrawling on the subways.
641
01:02:47,853 --> 01:02:50,081
How come a man's what you say?
642
01:02:50,920 --> 01:02:52,783
I'm a graffiti writer.
643
01:02:52,853 --> 01:02:56,717
I'm an artist. I don't just throw up little tags
all over the place.
644
01:02:56,787 --> 01:02:58,980
I make them trains beautiful.
645
01:03:02,587 --> 01:03:05,452
How come you won't even
come see what I do?
646
01:03:30,853 --> 01:03:33,581
Nothing's gonna come easy
647
01:03:34,721 --> 01:03:37,880
In your life, not in your life
648
01:03:38,821 --> 01:03:42,946
Nothing's gonna come easy in your life
649
01:03:44,554 --> 01:03:46,144
In your life
650
01:03:46,521 --> 01:03:49,385
I don't know why you can't see
651
01:03:50,354 --> 01:03:53,377
All the things in your life you could be
652
01:03:54,187 --> 01:03:58,483
You could live out your fantasies in your life
653
01:03:58,554 --> 01:04:01,145
Make sure I speak to her manager.
654
01:04:02,421 --> 01:04:04,717
It is possible
655
01:04:04,788 --> 01:04:09,118
That a man can fly, make a fool of science
656
01:04:09,387 --> 01:04:11,683
Gravity defied
657
01:04:12,688 --> 01:04:16,916
If you're searching for paradise
658
01:04:17,888 --> 01:04:21,615
Searching for something
that'll make you feel all right
659
01:04:22,821 --> 01:04:26,617
Take a look deep down inside yourself
660
01:04:27,322 --> 01:04:31,379
Just move your feet
and let the music do the rest
661
01:04:31,654 --> 01:04:34,314
While the music's hot it just won't stop
662
01:04:34,388 --> 01:04:36,649
Everybody dance to the radio rock
663
01:04:36,721 --> 01:04:39,187
Music's hot, it just won't stop
664
01:04:39,255 --> 01:04:42,449
Everybody's dancing,
they'll baptize the beat
665
01:04:42,521 --> 01:04:44,488
Baptize the beat, baptize the beat
666
01:04:44,554 --> 01:04:45,645
Next.
667
01:04:46,322 --> 01:04:47,413
Damn.
668
01:04:49,355 --> 01:04:53,378
That's right, that's deep
Everybody jumps to the vicious beat
669
01:04:53,455 --> 01:04:57,387
Vicious beat, beat, vicious beat, beat
670
01:05:01,455 --> 01:05:05,581
I'm Brenda Starr, and I rap to the beat
I go to the Roxy just to move my feet
671
01:05:05,655 --> 01:05:07,882
You see, I break and boogie,
I rap to the beat
672
01:05:07,955 --> 01:05:10,421
I'm rappin' to the rhythm of the vicious beat
673
01:05:10,488 --> 01:05:13,318
Vicious beat, vicious beat
vicious beat, vicious beat
674
01:05:13,388 --> 01:05:15,013
Hey, you
675
01:05:15,088 --> 01:05:17,418
Yeah, I'm talkin' to you
676
01:05:18,355 --> 01:05:22,253
I'm here to tell you, to tell you the scoop
677
01:05:22,322 --> 01:05:26,084
I play no games, I'm right to the point
678
01:05:26,355 --> 01:05:28,583
Make sure her manager
gets in touch with me.
679
01:05:30,455 --> 01:05:33,546
- Hold up a minute, K.
- What are you talking about?
680
01:05:33,622 --> 01:05:37,748
I want you to wait outside for me, all right?
I know what I'm doing.
681
01:05:37,822 --> 01:05:39,583
What are you doing?
682
01:05:39,889 --> 01:05:42,878
I am just about to take
the biggest chance of your life.
683
01:05:42,956 --> 01:05:44,387
Great. Next.
684
01:05:44,789 --> 01:05:46,812
Come on. Trust me.
685
01:05:53,288 --> 01:05:55,720
I was born and raised
in the South Bronx streets
686
01:05:55,789 --> 01:05:58,119
I'm so proud to say that my life's complete
687
01:05:58,189 --> 01:06:02,712
My father's strong, and I am told
The family name I must uphold
688
01:06:02,789 --> 01:06:06,915
Strong, bold, and demanding
That makes the girl outstanding
689
01:06:07,289 --> 01:06:09,255
Often imitated
690
01:06:09,323 --> 01:06:11,118
But never duplicated
691
01:06:11,189 --> 01:06:13,916
I always stated Wanda Dee is one of a kind
692
01:06:13,989 --> 01:06:17,046
And elegant is here,
she's gonna rock your mind
693
01:06:43,056 --> 01:06:45,648
You know you won't resist
694
01:06:47,022 --> 01:06:49,420
When I give you this
695
01:06:50,556 --> 01:06:52,681
You know that we just met
696
01:06:54,289 --> 01:06:56,619
Tonight I know you'll get wet
697
01:06:57,790 --> 01:06:59,585
You showed up just in time
698
01:06:59,656 --> 01:07:00,747
Nice.
699
01:07:01,989 --> 01:07:04,955
I'm gonna make you sweat and whine
700
01:07:06,356 --> 01:07:09,345
You are the one I want
I hold the tongue of fun
701
01:07:09,423 --> 01:07:13,685
You know it's hip-hop rock
That's why you won't stop
702
01:07:13,756 --> 01:07:17,119
So shake down, break down
703
01:07:17,556 --> 01:07:21,249
- Shake down, break down
- Here's some guitar
704
01:07:21,323 --> 01:07:23,152
Thank you. That's it.
705
01:07:31,957 --> 01:07:34,946
You've got some pretty good talent
for your show.
706
01:07:35,023 --> 01:07:36,579
You think they're talented?
707
01:07:36,656 --> 01:07:41,315
- No, most of them are pretty lame, right?
- Who the hell are you calling lame?
708
01:07:41,389 --> 01:07:43,480
You calling Tina B lame?
709
01:07:43,556 --> 01:07:44,613
No.
710
01:07:46,290 --> 01:07:50,188
My point is, I got a man
that's got something special.
711
01:07:50,257 --> 01:07:51,847
Auditions are over.
712
01:07:51,923 --> 01:07:55,219
He's Kool Herc's main man
down at the Burning Spear.
713
01:07:56,990 --> 01:07:58,512
Kool Herc?
714
01:08:00,290 --> 01:08:02,449
Okay, bring him in. I'll give him a listen.
715
01:08:02,523 --> 01:08:04,989
- You want to see him?
- I just said I did, Jim.
716
01:08:05,057 --> 01:08:07,989
Then be at the Burning Spear,
Saturday night.
717
01:08:13,457 --> 01:08:14,582
Yo, Kenny!
718
01:08:15,057 --> 01:08:17,387
- Let's go.
- What happened?
719
01:08:17,591 --> 01:08:20,284
It's in the pocket, brother.
720
01:08:44,724 --> 01:08:45,849
Okay.
721
01:08:59,824 --> 01:09:01,414
What do you think?
722
01:09:01,757 --> 01:09:05,484
- The place don't look so bad after all.
- Looking good.
723
01:09:05,958 --> 01:09:08,355
Landlord's gonna raise your rent.
724
01:09:08,991 --> 01:09:11,513
You can really fix up
one of these old places.
725
01:09:11,591 --> 01:09:12,682
Yeah.
726
01:09:15,424 --> 01:09:17,720
Yo, Double K, what's happening?
727
01:09:18,791 --> 01:09:20,223
How's it going, Kenny?
728
01:09:20,290 --> 01:09:22,381
Trace cut you loose tonight or what?
729
01:09:22,457 --> 01:09:25,685
She's rehearsing her show.
Girl's too busy for me.
730
01:09:25,891 --> 01:09:28,413
You really think Monte will show up
Saturday night?
731
01:09:28,490 --> 01:09:30,956
I told you, it's in the pocket.
732
01:09:31,624 --> 01:09:33,817
I really charmed that sucker.
733
01:09:34,524 --> 01:09:36,615
You know, I was thinking...
734
01:09:37,325 --> 01:09:39,688
that empty apartment upstairs...
735
01:09:40,291 --> 01:09:44,451
maybe I'll start hanging out around here.
Fix it up for me and Carmen and the baby.
736
01:09:44,525 --> 01:09:47,457
Really, Ramo? That'd be great.
We could be neighbors.
737
01:09:47,525 --> 01:09:49,956
What're you gonna do about money, man?
738
01:09:50,024 --> 01:09:52,819
- Get a job.
- Say what? You?
739
01:09:53,158 --> 01:09:55,624
Yeah. What the hell.
740
01:10:23,058 --> 01:10:24,752
Give me some tape.
741
01:10:26,325 --> 01:10:27,621
Watch it.
742
01:11:25,992 --> 01:11:28,550
Surprise! Merry Christmas.
743
01:11:29,292 --> 01:11:30,757
Welcome home.
744
01:11:38,959 --> 01:11:40,016
God.
745
01:11:45,792 --> 01:11:48,952
Let's throw on some music here.
Get this party going.
746
01:11:49,892 --> 01:11:51,722
You know what I mean?
747
01:11:52,426 --> 01:11:55,722
See? We put the crib right by the heat.
Keep him nice and warm.
748
01:11:55,793 --> 01:11:57,418
Water's running.
749
01:11:57,826 --> 01:12:01,553
Yeah, and the bed works, too.
We checked it out personally.
750
01:12:03,593 --> 01:12:04,820
Oh, God.
751
01:12:05,726 --> 01:12:08,715
I just don't know
how I'm gonna thank you all.
752
01:12:12,459 --> 01:12:14,652
- How you feeling?
- Great, man.
753
01:12:14,726 --> 01:12:17,191
Thanks a lot, you guys are the greatest.
754
01:12:17,492 --> 01:12:20,515
Us Puerto Ricans
got to stick together, right?
755
01:12:20,726 --> 01:12:22,123
He's crazy.
756
01:13:25,859 --> 01:13:27,723
Yo, Kenny, it's Monte.
757
01:13:28,126 --> 01:13:29,524
He's coming?
758
01:14:14,393 --> 01:14:18,257
- You listen pretty good.
- Herc, I'm not stealing your headliner.
759
01:14:18,327 --> 01:14:21,987
Just giving him a little downtown exposure.
You got everything to gain.
760
01:14:22,061 --> 01:14:26,959
- I'm looking out for the boy's interest.
- I can look out for Double K's interests.
761
01:14:27,027 --> 01:14:28,254
Do me a favor.
762
01:14:28,328 --> 01:14:30,850
New Year's Eve,
do exactly what you did tonight.
763
01:14:30,927 --> 01:14:34,257
Don't worry about it.
Double K won't change a note.
764
01:14:35,027 --> 01:14:37,357
So when do we see the contract?
765
01:14:37,460 --> 01:14:39,086
He your manager?
766
01:14:40,127 --> 01:14:42,649
Yeah, well, don't let that stop you.
767
01:14:51,127 --> 01:14:53,752
Yo, chill out, man. I hear something.
768
01:15:02,961 --> 01:15:04,756
Battle cry
769
01:15:04,860 --> 01:15:08,349
Let's do the right thing.
Let's serve these dudes, man.
770
01:15:09,394 --> 01:15:11,189
Fight this dancer
771
01:15:11,561 --> 01:15:12,720
Super solid
772
01:15:13,394 --> 01:15:15,189
Fight this dancer
773
01:15:15,528 --> 01:15:16,721
Super solid
774
01:15:22,094 --> 01:15:23,390
The battle cry
775
01:15:24,761 --> 01:15:25,987
No way.
776
01:15:26,061 --> 01:15:27,186
You see
777
01:15:27,261 --> 01:15:29,625
Is it time for what's in store
778
01:15:29,994 --> 01:15:33,085
The crews are headed for a dancing war
779
01:15:36,127 --> 01:15:38,218
Who rocks, who rocks,
who rocks, who rocks?
780
01:15:42,161 --> 01:15:43,457
Battle cry
781
01:15:45,361 --> 01:15:46,725
Street drums
782
01:15:47,161 --> 01:15:48,684
Speed drums
783
01:15:49,461 --> 01:15:51,052
Street drums
784
01:15:51,328 --> 01:15:52,555
Speed drums
785
01:15:53,062 --> 01:15:54,288
Street drums
786
01:15:54,361 --> 01:15:56,486
Who rocks, who rocks,
who rocks, who rocks?
787
01:16:01,128 --> 01:16:02,616
Battle cry
788
01:16:12,128 --> 01:16:15,457
It's the police!
Come on, man. Let's get out of here!
789
01:16:24,895 --> 01:16:26,486
Get off me, man!
790
01:16:28,395 --> 01:16:29,792
Stay still.
791
01:16:38,162 --> 01:16:39,821
Amazing, isn't it?
792
01:16:39,895 --> 01:16:43,521
Then do the same thing to add other sounds
to other keyboard registers.
793
01:16:43,596 --> 01:16:44,720
Look.
794
01:16:45,596 --> 01:16:47,425
Add a little scratch.
795
01:16:53,228 --> 01:16:55,786
And the computer prints out the score.
796
01:16:55,861 --> 01:16:57,725
Isn't that incredible?
797
01:16:57,796 --> 01:17:00,455
Yeah. That's good, man.
798
01:17:06,729 --> 01:17:08,820
Here, play with it a while.
799
01:17:11,362 --> 01:17:15,317
In a couple of hours, he'll probably
have it doing tricks nobody else thought of.
800
01:17:16,095 --> 01:17:19,994
Kenny, while you're working,
I have some work to complete with Tracy.
801
01:17:20,162 --> 01:17:22,321
- It's the piano part.
- The intro.
802
01:17:22,395 --> 01:17:23,383
Yes.
803
01:17:27,096 --> 01:17:31,425
- I can't believe the performance is tomorrow.
- You'd better believe it.
804
01:18:13,330 --> 01:18:14,852
Need some help?
805
01:18:17,862 --> 01:18:19,760
The keyboard went dead.
806
01:18:21,296 --> 01:18:23,194
You wiped out the disk.
807
01:18:23,496 --> 01:18:25,791
Here, I'll reprogram it for you.
808
01:18:25,862 --> 01:18:27,919
- I got to get going.
- Going?
809
01:18:28,396 --> 01:18:30,294
I thought you wanted to use the studio...
810
01:18:30,363 --> 01:18:34,056
to try out some sounds
for your New Year's Eve show at the Roxy.
811
01:18:34,330 --> 01:18:37,262
I don't need new sounds, man.
What I got's plenty.
812
01:18:37,330 --> 01:18:39,592
It was plenty good enough
to get me the gig.
813
01:18:39,663 --> 01:18:42,356
Excuse me, Robert.
Kenny, what's the matter?
814
01:18:42,430 --> 01:18:44,123
Nothing's the matter.
815
01:18:44,196 --> 01:18:47,026
I'm fine, you're fine.
We should just leave it that way.
816
01:18:47,096 --> 01:18:49,119
What do you mean by that?
817
01:18:49,296 --> 01:18:51,854
I've got things to do, my own things.
818
01:18:51,930 --> 01:18:55,259
You got your own things to do
with your own friends.
819
01:18:55,330 --> 01:18:56,523
Robert?
820
01:18:58,263 --> 01:19:01,991
You think that was so new and great,
what he was doing? That was nothing.
821
01:19:02,064 --> 01:19:04,791
- We were just trying to help you.
- I don't need help.
822
01:19:04,863 --> 01:19:07,886
- Other people respect what I do.
- And I don't?
823
01:19:09,064 --> 01:19:11,655
You don't even know why I'm with you.
824
01:19:11,730 --> 01:19:13,320
I got it figured out.
825
01:19:13,396 --> 01:19:16,294
You are the missionary, and I'm the native.
826
01:19:25,130 --> 01:19:26,789
Man, look at these toy cops.
827
01:19:26,863 --> 01:19:29,852
They don't know the difference
between dancing and fighting.
828
01:19:29,930 --> 01:19:31,691
Word. It's true, man.
829
01:19:31,763 --> 01:19:35,093
If we were fighting,
these people would've run the other way.
830
01:19:36,730 --> 01:19:39,821
If you know what's good for you,
you'll shut up!
831
01:19:40,964 --> 01:19:42,021
Mom!
832
01:19:44,630 --> 01:19:48,063
Mom, these fools busted us for dancing.
Could you believe this?
833
01:19:48,130 --> 01:19:52,495
I believe you better shut your mouth
before I decide to leave you here.
834
01:19:52,663 --> 01:19:54,391
Take my advice.
835
01:19:54,663 --> 01:19:57,823
You better nip that little attitude in the bud.
836
01:19:58,197 --> 01:20:00,685
That's heading for nowhere but trouble.
837
01:20:00,763 --> 01:20:04,161
You're kind of young
to be giving advice, aren't you?
838
01:20:04,531 --> 01:20:08,019
If my son says he was dancing,
that's what he was doing.
839
01:20:08,097 --> 01:20:12,393
If you're gonna arrest people for dancing,
maybe you're the one who needs advice...
840
01:20:12,464 --> 01:20:15,726
'cause there are lots of worse things
these kids could be doing.
841
01:20:15,798 --> 01:20:17,559
- That I know.
- Word.
842
01:20:30,698 --> 01:20:33,425
I don't know. Maybe I made a bad mistake.
843
01:20:33,531 --> 01:20:37,964
I mean, she's got this big performance
of her composition tonight...
844
01:20:38,397 --> 01:20:40,625
so she's thinking about that.
845
01:20:41,698 --> 01:20:44,562
Man, women are always trying
to change you.
846
01:20:44,998 --> 01:20:47,327
Is Carmen trying to change you?
847
01:20:47,464 --> 01:20:49,623
Hell, no. Who told you that?
848
01:20:50,497 --> 01:20:54,089
You got that dumb job.
That's a big change, isn't it?
849
01:20:54,165 --> 01:20:56,494
That was just something I had to do.
850
01:20:56,564 --> 01:21:01,394
It'll be better once I start working day shifts.
Night shifts interfere with my real work.
851
01:21:01,464 --> 01:21:03,555
Is that all you want to do?
852
01:21:03,631 --> 01:21:06,927
Go bombing trains at night
and pushing a broom all day?
853
01:21:06,998 --> 01:21:09,294
Why are you getting on my case?
854
01:21:09,898 --> 01:21:12,023
I'm not getting on you, man.
855
01:21:16,165 --> 01:21:17,630
You see them?
856
01:21:18,365 --> 01:21:22,524
Their tags are little black letters
on little white cards of paper.
857
01:21:23,131 --> 01:21:24,858
My tag's running...
858
01:21:24,931 --> 01:21:27,954
in Brooklyn, the Bronx, Queens, right now.
859
01:21:28,398 --> 01:21:30,761
In every borough, on every line.
860
01:21:31,198 --> 01:21:33,993
It's eight feet high, and it's beautiful.
861
01:21:34,131 --> 01:21:37,790
- But what about tomorrow?
- Tomorrow's a long way off, man.
862
01:21:37,931 --> 01:21:39,954
When I'm writing trains...
863
01:21:40,231 --> 01:21:44,493
or when you're mixing sounds,
making people dance, that's everything.
864
01:21:44,565 --> 01:21:45,962
We're alive.
865
01:21:49,965 --> 01:21:51,454
The white one.
866
01:21:52,898 --> 01:21:56,387
- Somebody made it an A train.
- So, what does that mean?
867
01:21:56,931 --> 01:22:00,227
That means tonight, after work, it's mine.
868
01:22:56,599 --> 01:22:57,997
There it is.
869
01:23:14,399 --> 01:23:16,297
Take this off, will you?
870
01:23:47,600 --> 01:23:50,566
- Do that fill-in in red, okay?
- Okay.
871
01:25:00,634 --> 01:25:01,758
Come on.
872
01:25:02,033 --> 01:25:04,158
Let's go do the other side.
873
01:25:04,766 --> 01:25:07,358
You've got to be kidding. Ramo!
874
01:26:33,867 --> 01:26:35,730
Do you hear something?
875
01:26:47,867 --> 01:26:48,958
Spit!
876
01:29:41,003 --> 01:29:42,162
Kenny.
877
01:29:44,669 --> 01:29:46,794
Sorry I missed your concert.
878
01:29:48,970 --> 01:29:50,833
That wasn't important.
879
01:29:52,437 --> 01:29:54,232
I know what you mean.
880
01:29:54,869 --> 01:29:57,495
That New Year's Eve gig at the Roxy...
881
01:29:57,736 --> 01:30:00,168
I don't think that's so important.
882
01:30:00,270 --> 01:30:02,792
But you're gonna do it, aren't you?
883
01:30:02,903 --> 01:30:04,369
I don't know.
884
01:30:07,036 --> 01:30:09,763
I have an idea for something I could do.
885
01:30:12,270 --> 01:30:15,293
- But I'm not sure how.
- Can I help?
886
01:30:17,003 --> 01:30:18,196
Please?
887
01:30:31,537 --> 01:30:34,264
Grand Master Melle and the Furious Five...
888
01:30:34,337 --> 01:30:38,030
Twenty-five breakers,
the City College dancers...
889
01:30:38,136 --> 01:30:40,193
and a Bronx gospel choir?
890
01:30:41,670 --> 01:30:45,034
Do you realize
what you're asking these people to do?
891
01:30:45,103 --> 01:30:47,365
- They'll do it.
- They'll do it.
892
01:30:47,604 --> 01:30:49,593
Yeah, so they'll do it...
893
01:30:50,136 --> 01:30:54,364
but there's no way in hell anybody's
gonna let you turn New Year's Eve at Roxy...
894
01:30:54,437 --> 01:30:56,562
into some kind of a funeral.
895
01:30:57,337 --> 01:31:00,428
It won't be a funeral. It'll be a celebration.
896
01:31:01,004 --> 01:31:02,902
Kenny, are you crazy?
897
01:31:05,303 --> 01:31:07,929
This is the opportunity of your life.
898
01:31:09,537 --> 01:31:11,003
It's my life.
899
01:31:16,204 --> 01:31:17,692
Okay, brother.
900
01:31:18,770 --> 01:31:20,668
Then let's do it right.
901
01:31:41,837 --> 01:31:43,428
Beat Street, breakdown
902
01:32:01,738 --> 01:32:03,761
Beat Street, the king of the beat
903
01:32:03,838 --> 01:32:06,599
You see 'em rockin' that beat
from across the street
904
01:32:06,671 --> 01:32:10,728
Beat street is a lesson, too
Because you can't let the streets beat you
905
01:32:14,905 --> 01:32:17,393
Well, a picture can express
a thousand words
906
01:32:17,471 --> 01:32:19,733
To describe all the beauty of life you give
907
01:32:19,805 --> 01:32:24,396
And if the world was yours to do over
I know you'd paint a better place to live
908
01:32:24,504 --> 01:32:26,834
Where the colors would swirl
and the boys and girls
909
01:32:26,905 --> 01:32:29,098
Can grow in peace and harmony
910
01:32:29,171 --> 01:32:33,934
And where murals stand on walls so grand
As far as the eyes are able to see
911
01:32:34,005 --> 01:32:38,131
I never knew art till I saw your face
And there'll never be one to take your place
912
01:32:38,204 --> 01:32:40,602
'Cause every time
you touch a spray-paint can
913
01:32:40,671 --> 01:32:43,069
Michelangelo's soul controls your hands
914
01:32:43,138 --> 01:32:45,036
Then serenades of blue and red
915
01:32:45,105 --> 01:32:47,502
And the beauty of the rainbow
fills your head
916
01:32:47,571 --> 01:32:52,129
Crescendo colors play in tune
Man, why did you have to die so soon?
917
01:32:52,205 --> 01:32:56,637
Sayin' one, two, three, four
Just let me know what you came here for
918
01:32:56,705 --> 01:33:01,035
And just clap your hands, everybody
And let me know that I'm not alone
919
01:33:01,105 --> 01:33:05,799
And if you knew my man when he was alive
Scream it out and say, "Ramon!"
920
01:33:07,372 --> 01:33:08,564
Ramon!
921
01:33:09,871 --> 01:33:12,837
I'm talking 'bout
ashes to ashes and dust to dust
922
01:33:12,905 --> 01:33:17,338
Where the good die young as all they must
'Cause as life must live, death must die
923
01:33:17,405 --> 01:33:19,700
And the tears shall fall from the living eye
924
01:33:19,771 --> 01:33:21,896
Tell me, who's gonna dream
the impossible dream
925
01:33:21,972 --> 01:33:24,438
Of the beautiful cities
and the island streams
926
01:33:24,505 --> 01:33:29,199
When your works of art brought into being
All that the ghetto stopped you from seeing
927
01:33:29,272 --> 01:33:31,261
Still-life, urban masterpiece
928
01:33:31,339 --> 01:33:33,737
Your trademark was written
on trains and walls
929
01:33:33,805 --> 01:33:38,329
A million-dollar gift only God would leave
And yet you got killed for nothing at all
930
01:33:38,405 --> 01:33:42,838
So after this, there'll be no more hard times
No more bad times, and no more pain
931
01:33:42,905 --> 01:33:47,338
No more chump change, none of that bull
Just movies, museums, and the hall of fame
932
01:33:47,405 --> 01:33:52,167
So all you hip-hops, get on up
And let's take it to the top where we belong
933
01:33:52,238 --> 01:33:54,500
'Cause the age
of the Beat Street wave is here
934
01:33:54,572 --> 01:33:58,026
Everybody, let's sing along,
now come on, say, "Ho!"
935
01:33:58,939 --> 01:34:00,302
Say, "Ho!"
936
01:34:10,472 --> 01:34:12,597
And to let me know
I'm rockin' the microphone
937
01:34:12,672 --> 01:34:14,934
Everybody say, "Ramon!"
938
01:34:16,305 --> 01:34:17,498
Ramon!
939
01:34:19,772 --> 01:34:21,897
A newspaper burns in the sand
940
01:34:21,973 --> 01:34:24,302
And the headlines say, "Man destroys man"
941
01:34:24,372 --> 01:34:26,361
Extra, extra, read all the bad news
942
01:34:26,439 --> 01:34:29,235
On the war of peace
that everybody would lose
943
01:34:29,305 --> 01:34:33,533
The rise and fall, the last great empire
The sound of the whole world caught on fire
944
01:34:33,606 --> 01:34:35,902
The ruthless struggle, the desperate gamble
945
01:34:35,973 --> 01:34:38,269
The game that left the whole world
in shambles
946
01:34:38,340 --> 01:34:42,567
The cheats, the lies, the alibis
And the foolish attempt to conquer the skies
947
01:34:42,939 --> 01:34:47,167
Lost in space, and what is it worth?
The President just forgot about Earth
948
01:34:47,239 --> 01:34:49,704
Spendin' multi-billions
and maybe even trillions
949
01:34:49,772 --> 01:34:51,931
The cost of weapons ran in the zillions
950
01:34:52,006 --> 01:34:54,302
There's gold in the street
Diamonds under feet
951
01:34:54,373 --> 01:34:56,634
And there's children in Africa don't even eat
952
01:34:56,706 --> 01:35:01,230
Flies on their faces, they're living like mice
The houses even make the ghetto look nice
953
01:35:01,306 --> 01:35:03,465
The water tastes funny,
it's forever too sunny
954
01:35:03,540 --> 01:35:05,971
And they work all month
and don't make no money
955
01:35:06,039 --> 01:35:10,131
A fight for power, a nuclear shower
People shout out in the darkest hour
956
01:35:10,306 --> 01:35:14,897
At sights unseen and voices unheard
And finally the bomb gets the last word
957
01:35:14,973 --> 01:35:17,405
Christians killed Muslims,
and Germans killed Jews
958
01:35:17,473 --> 01:35:19,701
And everybody's bodies
are used and abused
959
01:35:19,773 --> 01:35:24,228
Minds are poisoned and souls are polluted
Superiority complex is deep-rooted
960
01:35:24,306 --> 01:35:28,739
Leeches and lices, and people got prices
Egomaniacs control the self-righteous
961
01:35:28,807 --> 01:35:33,432
Nothing is sacred, and nothing is pure
So the revelation of death is our cure
962
01:35:33,506 --> 01:35:37,939
Dachau, Auschwitz, Hiroshima
Vietnam, Leningrad, Iwo Jima
963
01:35:38,006 --> 01:35:40,302
Okinawa, Korea, the Philippines
964
01:35:40,373 --> 01:35:42,498
Devastation, death,
catch the killing machine
965
01:35:42,573 --> 01:35:45,061
The people's in terror,
the leaders made an error
966
01:35:45,139 --> 01:35:47,264
And now they can't even look in the mirror
967
01:35:47,340 --> 01:35:49,499
'Cause we got to suffer
while things get rougher
968
01:35:49,573 --> 01:35:51,732
And that's why we got to get tougher
969
01:35:51,807 --> 01:35:53,966
So learn from the past
and work for the future
970
01:35:54,040 --> 01:35:56,232
And don't be a slave to no computer
971
01:35:56,306 --> 01:35:58,670
'Cause the children of man inherit the land
972
01:35:58,740 --> 01:36:00,729
And the future of the world is in your hands
973
01:36:00,807 --> 01:36:05,262
So just throw your hands in the air
And wave them like you just don't care
974
01:36:05,340 --> 01:36:07,568
And if you believe that you're the future
975
01:36:07,640 --> 01:36:09,799
Scream it out and say, "Yeah!"
976
01:36:11,107 --> 01:36:12,402
Yeah!
977
01:36:17,773 --> 01:36:20,331
Everybody, do you believe?
978
01:36:20,406 --> 01:36:21,702
Yeah!
979
01:36:21,773 --> 01:36:23,330
Do you believe?
980
01:36:27,540 --> 01:36:29,370
Let me hear you say, "Yeah!"
981
01:36:41,040 --> 01:36:42,938
Believe it
982
01:36:43,974 --> 01:36:46,065
Believe it
983
01:37:09,774 --> 01:37:11,932
They buried us
984
01:37:12,007 --> 01:37:15,235
So we became a flower, believe it
985
01:37:15,941 --> 01:37:17,304
Believe it
986
01:37:17,808 --> 01:37:19,831
They gave us nothing
987
01:37:19,908 --> 01:37:22,806
So we took power, believe it
988
01:37:23,641 --> 01:37:25,039
Believe it
989
01:37:33,041 --> 01:37:38,167
They tried to break us
And now we're the breakers, believe it
990
01:37:39,207 --> 01:37:40,571
Believe it
991
01:37:40,674 --> 01:37:43,072
We come from the ashes
992
01:37:43,141 --> 01:37:45,402
The movers and shakers
993
01:37:46,908 --> 01:37:48,272
Believe it
994
01:37:56,941 --> 01:37:58,873
Now we're going on
995
01:37:58,941 --> 01:38:00,463
We're the hip-hop
996
01:38:00,541 --> 01:38:02,371
Now we're going on
997
01:38:02,441 --> 01:38:04,374
We're gonna take you to the top
998
01:38:04,441 --> 01:38:06,464
Now we're going on
999
01:38:06,608 --> 01:38:08,631
We can't stop, believe it
1000
01:38:19,442 --> 01:38:21,101
Strut, strut
1001
01:38:27,475 --> 01:38:29,304
Break it down, break it down
1002
01:38:35,375 --> 01:38:38,466
We are the harvest of a bitter seed
1003
01:38:39,241 --> 01:38:40,798
Some of us fall
1004
01:38:41,208 --> 01:38:42,935
Some of us bleed
1005
01:38:43,075 --> 01:38:44,803
But we are the future
1006
01:38:45,208 --> 01:38:46,901
And we will succeed
1007
01:38:47,241 --> 01:38:48,400
Believe it
1008
01:38:48,775 --> 01:38:50,138
Believe it
1009
01:38:50,275 --> 01:38:52,673
We are the miracle
1010
01:38:52,742 --> 01:38:54,537
We are the strong
1011
01:38:54,609 --> 01:38:57,973
We are the right that came from wrong
1012
01:38:58,041 --> 01:39:01,439
We made hope into our song
1013
01:39:01,675 --> 01:39:03,197
Believe it
1014
01:39:03,275 --> 01:39:04,764
Believe it
1015
01:39:20,875 --> 01:39:24,602
I'm a Christian, a Muslim, a Hindu, a Jew
1016
01:39:25,308 --> 01:39:26,797
Believe it
1017
01:39:28,176 --> 01:39:32,165
I believe in me, I believe in you
1018
01:39:36,542 --> 01:39:40,100
Yes, I believe it, I do believe it
1019
01:39:40,176 --> 01:39:41,835
Yes, I believe it
1020
01:39:51,542 --> 01:39:54,202
Do you
1021
01:39:55,042 --> 01:39:56,803
believe it?
