Legen...(wait for it)...dary Hip Hop | Flashdance and Rock Steady

For the inaugural post of this series, it is appropriate that it be regarding the legendary clip that helped bring bboying and hip hop dance to the mainstream.
In the 1983 dance film Flashdance featured a short, yet powerful scene that would change hip hop dance worldwide forever.  Featuring the legendary Rock Steady Crew, this scene inspired dancers around the world to start bboying. There are some reports of people paying to see the whole movie multiple times. Not for the story, but for these few crucial scenes to get a better sense of where to start.

If you have a suggestion for a Legen...(wait for it)...dary hip hop (or other dance) video, please email them to bloggingabdc@gmail.com!  (No guarantees... after all we need to keep things legendary)
