3.0 out of 5 stars
Break out your cardboard., October 30, 2005
This review is from: Beat Street (Audio CD)
Back in the day, when hip hop was called rap and nothing was cooler than checkered Vans and a boom box that was bigger than a Mini Cooper, there was Beat Street. A break dancing delight, the real deal, as opposed to the hollywood counter part "Breakin." This album, while irresistable to pop-lock to, has a message -- it was darn tough in the inner city back in the eighties, well, just like now. I don't remember much about this movie, but I remember it being a lot tougher than Breakin, and it didn't have any stupid hollywood clowns who thought they had some moves. If you're in to hip hop roots and some classic "scratchin'" this is for you. And if you just happened to buy a refrigerator, this album is perfect when you're back-spinning on the box it came in..
