Classic film!!! Still love the Grand master flash bit asmuch as i did when i first saw this way back in the 80's...before the days when money and ego runined the whole hip hop scene, it was still in its pure form then!!
Lee making his mural, Flash in the kitchen scratching the beats as Fab 5 Freddy is sitting and watching and the Rock Steady Crew walking up the hill to go break...This is Hip Hop made visual in 60 seconds...Wild Style
you know flash was the greatest turntablist of all time. he learnt from kool herc and grand wizzard theodore and took it to another level. respect to flash!
@N2OH how right you are, have made my 19yr old son watch all these films, beatstreet, breakdance etc and told him dont call yourself a hip hop head til you understand the roots. PEACE
Don't forget Lady Pink - also real life grafitti artist. She's not just some actor girlfriend -she was the real deal. Made whole car Murals. Cute as hell too.
@osidecoqui ....You are absolutely right. They could not get permission from Bob James to allow the original "Mardi Gras" song in the DVD version. So Fab 5 Freddy and the producers re-edidted this version. I have the original VHS version to. A classic and rare find. Don't ever lose your copy. I no longer play the VHS version because I don't want it damaged.
oh man, this is the dvd version that came out a few years back. and it sucks! they couldnt get clearance for the bob james "mardi gras" track that flash drops at 1:18. the first time i watched it, i took it out, put it back in the case and returned it. ill just keep my vhs copy.
The most important 3 minutes in film possibly. I was just laughing hysterically at how dope this is. Flash in his kitchen cutting up "God made me funky" with radio shack mixer, 3 turntables, iron on letter warmup jacket, and Fab 5 Freddy watching in awe. You could read 1000 books about hip hop or just watch this clip . If you can understand what's going on here and fill in the gaps then you can parse 80 pct of western culture over the past 3-4 decades. I always asked myself why did you watch WildStyle every day for years and now it makes perfect sense. For once, I did something smart despite how outwardly militant and obsessive it might have seemed at the time.
we watched wildstyle, breakin, and beat street at a triple feature 69th and market upper darby. back in the day. me and my boys all had on our white lees with different color izods. shells wit laces, i had sky blue suede pumas that turned my socks blue. wildstyle was the best by far. then beat street. we didnt even sit through breakin
emblematico y nostalgico donde los alla!! sin duda alguna este video representa mucho para el mundo del hip hop hoy por hoy!! el gran maestro flash!!jeje buen video!! un saludo jau
@nycpd75 Well from what I understand, hip-hop as a term was coined from a block party when one of the Furious Five's relatives went to the military. No Limit brought that back when Master P released "Make 'Em Say Uh" and Busta Rhymes sang "Fire." That was little over ten years ago. Its out there, the studios just don't cater to that though.
this clip IS STR8 UP HARD!!!! is the 1st b boy Ken Swift?????? and peep his skill, he looks like present day b boyz.... RATHER,,, NOW B BOYZ LOOK LIKE HIM !!!!!! and what year is this again,,, yup!!! Peace
This mix is not on the soundtrack. However, I have the original movie on VHS. The second song that Flash mixes is different from the original movie. The original movie used "Take me to the Mardi Gras," by Bob James. It was later changed on the DVD updated version to avoid copyright infringements.
wow! what happened to the original sound. I have this movie on vhs and the beat on my tape is bob james. I've had the tape since 1983. the only sound that was the same was the beginning and the end.
Luv this. But I remember seeing this when it was first ever broadcast on TV/cable and there's a different version to the Grandmaster Flash track. This here is the DVD released version. There's more bells and chimes added to this song but i guess they cut it our and/or re-edited it. Still sounds good tho. Glad I caught it.
dude Im so in what your saying, that Mardi Gras shit was the whole hook in that sequence, bob james should know better man, how could they not get clearance, this was the scenne in the movie that went stellar for alot of peeps man...oh my god...!!!
I never get tired of this!!!!
Word
Classic film!!! Still love the Grand master flash bit asmuch as i did when i first saw this way back in the 80's...before the days when money and ego runined the whole hip hop scene, it was still in its pure form then!!

Lee making his mural, Flash in the kitchen scratching the beats as Fab 5 Freddy is sitting and watching and the Rock Steady Crew walking up the hill to go break...This is Hip Hop made visual in 60 seconds...Wild Style

This mix is not on the soundtrack. However, I have the original movie on VHS. The second song that Flash mixes is different from the original movie. The original movie used "Take me to the Mardi Gras," by Bob James. It was later changed on the DVD updated version to avoid copyright infringements.
First track sampled is 'God Make Me Funky' by Herbie Hancock and The Headhunters

wow! what happened to the original sound. I have this movie on vhs and the beat on my tape is bob james. I've had the tape since 1983. the only sound that was the same was the beginning and the end.

people talk about real hip-hop...this is real hip-hop. FLASH cutting up HERBIE HANCOCK & THE HEADHUNTERS!!!

If you own a vhs copy of the wild-style,they changed the second breakbeat on the dvd copy.The original breakbeat was Mardi gras-Bob James.
God dammm flash IS the grand master of dis shit homz

Yes TM, Bless up!
Luv this. But I remember seeing this when it was first ever broadcast on TV/cable and there's a different version to the Grandmaster Flash track. This here is the DVD released version. There's more bells and chimes added to this song but i guess they cut it our and/or re-edited it. Still sounds good tho. Glad I caught it.
Get 'em Flash !!!
OLD SKOOL
the beat is the revolution.

I don't want to live on this planet anymore...
Wow, love this music, (no club in Belgium plays music like that.) Maybe in an underground club, somewhere...
dude Im so in what your saying, that Mardi Gras shit was the whole hook in that sequence, bob james should know better man, how could they not get clearance, this was the scenne in the movie that went stellar for alot of peeps man...oh my god...!!!
