      Well I'm Kangol and that's a fact
      And for some reason, my name's on everybody's hat
      One theme that I tell me they didn't know
      That I was Kangol from UTFO
      But to be another Kangol, another Kangol Kid
      That would be irrelevant that's right, that's what I said
      To be a mellow supreme, the consequences are extreme
      Not even fantasize that dream
      When my mind goes wild, my friends will all see
      I got finesse and I'm as cool as can be
      I survive in a fire like Doc and E, for being so extraordinary
      Because my knowledge has shown that
      Until a year when MCs rock a microphone
      And from the day I was born, never did nothing wrong
      Just rocked all night to the break of dawn
      So you know I'm gonna rock it, give it all I got , it's like another day
      And I can even pop, definitely talented I acquired the skill
      And come to think about it, you know what I think I will
      Be the best there ever was and ever will be, ever more
      better than he employed in consideration
      UTFO will organization, so bite it!
      Bite it!
      Bite it!

    It's incredible. Who knew that mime artists like Marcel Marceau and Shields & Yarnell would be the "fathers" of break dancing? Legendary street dancing. Come on! Black people are SO creative, so talented! 😍

    • @mauricehumphrey545

      Yes, remember, the four biggest influences on breaking were Marcel Marceau, Shields & Yarnell, James Brown, and, Michael Jackson. So, "miming," and, the "boogie," gave birth to break dancing as we now know it today.

    This is one of my all time favorite Breakin / Electric Boogie videos. Mainly because I have liked UTFO since I was about 8 or 9, and I didn't know they started as dancers. They had fresh style and dope moves as young teens in these videos. Very impressive.
    I'm 45 now. Much love and respect to the roots of breakin and hip hop culture!

    PIONEERS!!!!! It's hard for many of us to appreciate SEEING something like this "FOR THE FIRST TIME" when there was NOTHING LIKE it before. With RUclips showing how street dancing (as it was called back then) has EVOLED, progressed to incorporate so many different styles, moves, nuances. The boundaries as to what you can do, IS BEING PUSHED ALL THE TIME, new moves, new styles even are being invented. Yet ALL of what we see, would NOT BE POSSIBLE without the Pioneers, the Founders, many of who their names are not even put in no hall of fame. I WOULD LOVE TO SEE A STREET DANCE AND HIP HOP Museum recognising all those who "contributed" to the culture, however small it was.
    HIP HOP MUSEUM should be erected to preserve the legacy, the history, the story.
    (Im old skool, what hip hop it doesn't carry generally speaking a POSITIVE MESSAGE which it used to generally back in the early days of hip hop)
