Hello, This is Vashawn, Shabba Doo's son. Let make something clear. My father is not part Ethiopian. Puerto Rican father, Black american Mother. Thank you. 🙏🏿
Wsup Vashawn, I was peeping this out today, I am glad you are on here to clear up some of the misinformation. How you been ? I hope you still doing well. I also wanted to make sure no misinformation was here. I hope Fawn is doing good.
Gracefully said young man. I really loved and respected your father. I'm also from the Chi!!! I love the dedication ceremony Chicago had for him. This is just a little of what he really stood for. He truly was a trendsetter. I'm much younger born in the sixties....I've never met your Father but his spirit resignates with in. I have him on my playlist. 😂 Shabba Doo!!!! My son is also of a mix race. I love Jesus and one day when the rapture comes. I will see him dancing again. From a Chicagoan now living in the South Suburbs. ❤❤❤ You are his legacy. 😊😊😊
I still have a hard time believing Mr. Adolfo Quinones, is dead. I reached out to him on Facebook. He added me to his friend's list. I was so excited!! We would communicate with each other sometimes. When I heard about his death, my heart just dropped!!💔. I saved our messages. I go back and read them sometimes. He was a great man. I miss him❤😢
@@prometheous318 See? Kiss your girl goodbye when Shabb shows up😁 I wonder why He and Lela Rochon didnt workout. Shabb stayed handsome but she fell off. I'm gonna ask a friend of mine who knew him and performed with him.
R.I.P. Shabba-Doo 🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊 And I remember you talking about The Lockers in The What's Happening cast story too! Thanks for telling his story my brotha!!! 👑👑👑 💯💯💯💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
I remember him as a kid looking at that movie “Breakin and Breakin 2” he was a very good looking man I was shocked when he passed because not that long ago he was on Vlad TV and Soul Train documentary; I always felt something wasn’t right may he RIP And I am very glad you did this documentary thank you
I cried and cried and cried when I scrolled down my IG and saw he died a day after he said he was getting better. I just kept saying but he just said he was get better. Definitely a death that broke my heart
And what's sad is that Shabba-Doo died in the same year (2020) as Dawn Wells, Sean Connery, Regis Philbin, Kelly Preston, Kobe Bryant, Naya Rivera, Pop Smoke, Huey, Chadwick Boseman, Tiny "Zeus" Lister, Natalie Desselle Reid, Andre Harrell, Fred the GodSon, Ecstasy of Whodini, MF DOOM, Little Richard, Betty Wright, David Stern, Jason Davis (the voice of Mikey from Recess), etc.
I didn't even know he passed away. 😭 SMH! He may be gone, but he is, most definitely, not forgotten. He is now "Dancing With The Stars." 🕺🏽🕺🏽⭐⭐🌠🌠⭐⭐🕺🏽🕺🏽 Peace, love, and light. ❤ ❤❤🌠🌠😘😘🌠🌠❤❤
Dang! Bringing back so many fun memories back in the 80’s. I remember when my brother and his friends grabbing cardboards laying them in the middle of the street break dancing with there loud boom boxes playing! Lol Those we’re the days 🙌🏾 🪩
The Lockers also recorded a song called "Stuffing The Bird" in 1976 the instrumental version was the song Rerun Danced to in the first episode of "What's Happening?!"
He was so handsome. I, like most teenage girls , I'm sure, fanaticized about him. He had the moves, the looks and could act. I was saddened to hear of his passing. Thanks for doing a video on him. R.I.P Shabba-Doo. 🥰
He actually lived in the same building I was born in which was 534 W.Division which was called the whites! My mom and dad went to Cooley High with him and I remember my momma saying, that he was a cute boy and now he a fine man!
Man, Breakin 1 and 2 are still my favorite movies till this day. Breakin 1 came out in '84, the year I was born. Also, one of my mother's brothers acutally knew Shabba Doo before he moved to LA. He said he was a cool dude. Had no idea he was raised a Jehovah's Witness. I read how he became a Jehovah's Witness later in life before he died!! And damn he tapped Toni Basil? Knew she had a thing for the brothers. Man, that song "Mickey" is still a classic!! Great vid!!
I wish he was still around. I was really excited when I learned break dancing would be a sport in the future Olympics games. I knew for sure he'd be a shoe in for one of the judges. Rest well sir!! ❤️❤️
I first met ShabbaDoo back in 2016 and asked him to be on my show Breaking Into on Black Hollywood Live. We become close friends. He came on my show like 4 more times over the years. He was a trip! He was youthful. And you’re right he was always working. He also had a clothing line AFRO. I STILL have the sweatshirts. I talked to him right before he died. I still miss him. He is very underrated. Thanks for doing this
Just added Breakin one and two to my movie playlist…classics to this day…. Shabba Doo:had that fire and was doing his thing in the 80s, 90s,and 00s…he was a cool chill positive and humble cat…never heard anything bad about him…still missed to this day…RIP Shabba Doo…
Back in 1971 when Soul Train came to DC my sister's and I were hooked. I had never seen pop lockin'. My father who was in the Air Force at the time had remarried my step mother in California and got stationed at Andrews Air Force in 1972. I first met my step brother that year when they came to my mother's house and he was doing the pop lockin' dance. Little did I know that 50 years later Shabba Doo would be icon of that dance style. Those were great times.
I hope you do more stories on Betty Wright, Andre Harrell, Stezo, Lee Reherman, Della Reese, Taylor Negron, Byron Fox, Lisa Robin Kelly, Ron Lester, Chyna, Suzzanne Douglas, Yvette Wilson, Naya Rivera, Pam the Funkstress, Melvin Edmonds, Mitch Mullany, Heavy D, Big Pun, Armand Jones, Lynne Thigpen and Prince Markie Dee
I remember in Baltimore as a child in the 80s my mom & older cousins use to take us kids to these two famous movie theaters in downtown Bmore. The Town and Hippodrome who were rite around the corner from each other & we would go see all those 80s hits like Purple Rain, The Last Dragon, The Terminator, Breakin. Those movies effected the rest of my life til I carried those names wit me til this day. My production name is BreaknBeat an honor to Breakin and Beat Street. Shabadoo was always a dancing god in my eyes. A cultural icon of my generation. He is embedded in our history. He's passing was really hard on me. One of my heroes. May he rest in peace 😞🙏🏾
Do you remember when he and the other 2 Characters from Breakin came to Baltimore for a personal appearance? I believe it was at the Reisterstown Rd Plaza or either at Security Square Mall, can't remember which location, They came to promote the movie and was traveling everywhere, I didn't attend that day but my youngest sister and some of her friends did, she said that she was standing right up front and she got some absolutely awesome photos, picture perfect, they ( the 3 cast members) did some dance routines and was wonderfully deeply appreciated by the huge crowd, extending their appreciation to their devoted fans and signing autographs, everyone had a great time, but yeah this was back in the 80's and she still have those very treasured extra special photos and she shared them with me so yes I have them too❤️🤗👍
@@verahall6498 Wow I don't remember that but great story. I wish I could have done something like that. The 80s were so cool and exciting I knew that had to be so fun.
I remember when him and the lockers visited our elementary school in Chicago.. Omg he was a god to black urban children, he taught us how to dance and everything Good childhood memories.. R. I. P. Shabba Doo
Thanks for highlighting this iconic dancer. Shabba Doo was truly one of a kind and oh so gorgeous. I remember him dancing on Soul Train and as part of The Lockers on the What's Happening! episode. Breakin' was the movie that put the brotha on the map though. So epic. His death was shocking. R.I.P. legend.
This is one of the stories i was waiting for thank you so much. Can we please get stories on other 80s hip-hop legends such as Pop N Taco, Biz Markie, Kangol Kid, Prince Markee Dee, Miss Melanie, MCA & Eazy-E?
Wow, you're the first person I heard say Breakin' 2 was better than 1 Everybody else would say they didn't care for breaking 2 or they couldn't get into it. On the other hand, I like both of them but part 1 is better for me. 🙂
Don "Campbellock" Campbell originated the dance Locking, and Shabba Doo followed other dancers that was on Soul Train to band together to form THE LOCKERS DANCE GROUP.. PLEASE DO NOT FORGET DON AND HIS LEGACY.. AS NO ONE CAN FORGET SHABBA DOO, DON SEEMS TO GET PUSHED TO THE BACK . RIP DON CAMPBEII, SHABBA "ADOLFO QUINONES" DOO, FRED BERRY, GREG POPE. I have to say each LOCKER had their own locking style and skills , but Shabba Doo brought it to a larger professional level by bringing it to larger crowds, the movie screens. He exposed so many to Street Dance, and made other want to learn the Dances. Him and several of the Original Lockers started teaching these styles passing this knowledge on to other generations of Dancers. TONY GOGO WENT ON TO JAPAN IN 1985 AND STARTED LOCKING, AND STREET DANCE FUSION SCHOOLS. MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT TO THE REMAINING LOCKERS TONI BASIL, BILL "SLIM THE ROBOT" WILLIAMS, LEO "FLUKY LUKE" WILLIAMSON, ANTHONY "TONY GOGO" FOSTER. And others who stepped into fill out the group when needed. We will miss Sabba Doo , I had always hoped he would have made another movie like he referred to having written a script for. It was suppose to carry on from the second movie. But he said his vision saw the lead character being a woman. The World of Street Dance will miss a Great Teacher, and Locking Legacy.
Thank you for this video I turned 40 tomorrow and this literally made me want to dance. Without this movie I never would have been inspired to do so, Thank you Ozone
Shabba was known for Poplockin, NOT breakdancin. Breakdancin was in New York heavy bac then, "Rock Steady Crew", "New York City breakers". Westcoast had mostly Poplockin. Movies like "Footloose" "Breakin" was about westcoast lifestyle, with a caucasian female as the Star, smh. New York flicks were more like "Beatstreet, Wildstyle, Krushgroove ect". More of a deeper hiphop feel. Graffiti, breakin, Rappin, dj'ing ect.
Let's not forget popping and locking IS part of Breaking. Let's not down play that. And Let's not forget the movie Krush Groove showed how the Industry moved in and destroyed real Hip Hop. The only group that got paid was Run DMC
@@Kabingis Other groups was PAID was before dmc. They always PAID rappers that made records, they didn't do it for FREE. It just wasn't BIG MONEY. Rundmc just brought hiphop to the Mainstream and made it so that rapperscan wear their "StreetClothes". Before them rappers wore clothes that Parliament funk groups wore. Rundmc changed the fashion
Shabba Doo has never been underrated ...... I love that MAN,,, AND HE LOOKS FINER NOW.... He was my first crush EVER when I was a child!!! I didn't know what love was.....BUT I LOVED HIM!!!!
I was so I'm love with him,he was so freaking handsome and talented. Breakin and breakin 2 are still in my favorites. I cried so much they day I heard he died,rip.
Omg that has upset me, I didnt no he was gone 😢 He truly was the Godfather of Street Dance. BREAKIN is one of the best movies made to date, it was so authentic and the blend of cultures made it great. 💛 RIP to Shabba doo...an original creater. Thank you for making history with ur art work 🙏🏽
R.I.P. to the man I saw on the movie screen who also became a friend. He always laughed when I told him how he helped my teenage dating life because I had a similar look as him. He said he was still the best looking between me and him. lol Crazy story: I grew up with his niece in Chicago and when Breakin came out she was telling us that he was her uncle but we didn’t believe her…years later after meeting and becoming friends I found out that she was telling the truth after all. I’m also good friends with his son.
I got 2 stents in my veins due to clogged arteries....there are symptoms...he ignored them...People of color don't go to the doctor..I'm a gay man...he was fine.
Thank you! for this great story on Shabba-Doo always remember him from Soul Train. Him his sister and the locker were great performers. Just bringing back great memories.
MANNNNN. I LOVED this movie. TFS. You know Taco just passed away. Taco was Poppin Pete's dance partner in Breakin. He was also in Micheal Jackson's video Smooth Criminal. Shabba Doo dancing was legendary. Toni Basil from the lockers get a lot of credit for her dancing, but NEVER mentions that she started in the group.🤔😒
Wow!!! Thanks for this!!! He was an awesome dude full of knowledge. It still hurts. One of the coolest dudes you ever want to meet. You did your research thoroughly!!!
He was my childhood crush. I was so heartbroken when I found out he passed away. The media says he had a son and a daughter. But they also said Gwendolyn Powell had only one child with him and he didn’t have children with Lela Rochon. So did he only have 1 child or two?
Breakin' & Breakin' 2 were HUGE classics. They can never take those away from us. Every kids was dying for a Breakin' 3 back then....but in the end, I guess I'm glad they never did one. I still watch those movies to this day. RIP Ozone!
Hello, This is Vashawn, Shabba Doo's son. Let make something clear. My father is not part Ethiopian. Puerto Rican father, Black american Mother. Thank you. 🙏🏿

Breakin' and Breakin' 2 remain one of my favorite movies to this day because of Shabba Doo! R.I.P. Shabba, one of the best lock dancers to ever do it!
I sure wish I knew whatever happened to Turbo‘s girlfriend in breakin 2
You may be having a stroke. Get help now.
Yoo, hands down they definatley deserves their flowers💐💐!
❤exactly
I was a little girl watching breakin and breakin 2 then dancing on the ceiling was popping ❤❤❤rip Shabba Doo
I love Breakin to this day. Michael Jackson even held Shabba Doo in the highest esteem.
Shabba Doo is the only dancer to have his own tv show and his dancers were The Shabbadoos 😁
@The Big Show
Yeah, The Jackson 5 appeared on Soul Train when Shabba Doo was on there dancing, with his sister.
@@Coffy1978 she's still alive but very quiet
I know. I saw her comment on social media when he passed.
He came to Memphis a few years ago to talk to the kids about following their dreams...he was still fine! RIP
I'm so heartbroken over his death gum and turbo are my best men on the planet I love them with all my heart
He deserves a star on the walk of fame in Hollywood period !
Yes, he does
@@monilaninetynine3811 go hide some where ! You bored

Yes he does I’m glad someone said it
You got my vote
Interesting facts here!
And to this day, I can NOT hear Chaka's "Ain't Nobody" without picturing that scene in the movie 😆
Rite!
Fred Berry, Shabbadoo and Tony Basil. What a set.
Breakin' and Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo are still classic movies to this day
To this day.........TO THIS DAY!!!
"B-BOY"I love you 🥺 and you have to make me feel good 👍......
I just watched Breakin’ 2 on cable recently. ozone, Turbo and special K was so talented. RIP Shabba Doo

He was so fine. He will never be forgotten. May he be at peace.
Oh yeah, tuck ya girl in when Shabb comes to town😁
He was beautiful 😍 may he rip that bone structure and his eyes.
Yes, he was! My childhood and teen crush.
@@prometheous318 See? Kiss your girl goodbye when Shabb shows up😁 I wonder why He and Lela Rochon didnt workout. Shabb stayed handsome but she fell off. I'm gonna ask a friend of mine who knew him and performed with him.
@@justallah2785 I was thinking the same when it came to Lela Rochon but you said it.
R.I.P. Shabba-Doo 🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊 And I remember you talking about The Lockers in The What's Happening cast story too! Thanks for telling his story my brotha!!! 👑👑👑 💯💯💯💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
I prefered Beat Street to Breakin but Shabba Doo and Pop 'N Taco stood out for me. May they both rest in peace🙏
Yeah, Pop n Taco was a beast, his talent wasnt utilize in Breakin 2, i felt they kind of caged him.
I remember him as a kid looking at that movie “Breakin and Breakin 2” he was a very good looking man I was shocked when he passed because not that long ago he was on Vlad TV and Soul Train documentary; I always felt something wasn’t right may he RIP And I am very glad you did this documentary thank you
I cried and cried and cried when I scrolled down my IG and saw he died a day after he said he was getting better. I just kept saying but he just said he was get better. Definitely a death that broke my heart
Me too. 🙏🏾
The day before Bernie Mac died they said he was doing much better. Woke up in the morning.... He was gone. I cried like a baby
I feel you.
Because he most likely didn't write that, a family member or someone most likely wrote it! Having false hope!
@@eugenedantzler4485 hangs
Hip Hop is dead like Nas said. What they puttin out now is not Hip Hop.
Do you only listen to the radio? There are a million great artists putting out music. Expand where you search for your music. Enjoy.

Yup
I agree!!
U R SOOOO VERY CORRECT..RAP HAS CHANGE.. PILLS DUST METH SAD DEDE BLASS
And what's sad is that Shabba-Doo died in the same year (2020) as Dawn Wells, Sean Connery, Regis Philbin, Kelly Preston, Kobe Bryant, Naya Rivera, Pop Smoke, Huey, Chadwick Boseman, Tiny "Zeus" Lister, Natalie Desselle Reid, Andre Harrell, Fred the GodSon, Ecstasy of Whodini, MF DOOM, Little Richard, Betty Wright, David Stern, Jason Davis (the voice of Mikey from Recess), etc.

This one is still close to my heart. He was Definitely underrated!
No he wasnt
And Kimberly electric boogaloo came on two days ago

Dang! Bringing back so many fun memories back in the 80’s. I remember when my brother and his friends grabbing cardboards laying them in the middle of the street break dancing with there loud boom boxes playing! Lol Those we’re the days 🙌🏾 🪩
He was a talented heartthrob for sure. 💕
Rip to a real legend 🖤
The Lockers also recorded a song called "Stuffing The Bird" in 1976 the instrumental version was the song Rerun Danced to in the first episode of "What's Happening?!"
My guys a legend! R.i.p Ozone!
RIP to both Shabba-Doo and Pop-n-Taco
He was so handsome. I, like most teenage girls , I'm sure, fanaticized about him. He had the moves, the looks and could act. I was saddened to hear of his passing. Thanks for doing a video on him. R.I.P Shabba-Doo. 🥰
A story on rapper Ecstasy from Whodini would be very interesting
TV ONE'S UNSUNG covered Whodini, it was good!
He actually lived in the same building I was born in which was 534 W.Division which was called the whites! My mom and dad went to Cooley High with him and I remember my momma saying, that he was a cute boy and now he a fine man!
He might've been gay.
Fun fact, Marla Gibbs was his Godmother. She and his mom were really close friends.
I promise in the eighties we used to think we were one of his dancers, it's so unfortunate he passed away may he rest in paradise.

And others who stepped into fill out the group when needed. We will miss Sabba Doo , I had always hoped he would have made another movie like he referred to having written a script for. It was suppose to carry on from the second movie. But he said his vision saw the lead character being a woman. The World of Street Dance will miss a Great Teacher, and Locking Legacy.
Wow what a awesome person and great inspiration. He was one of the individuals that opened the doors for a lot of people
Thank you for this video I turned 40 tomorrow and this literally made me want to dance. Without this movie I never would have been inspired to do so, Thank you Ozone
I just enjoy your documentaries. Be blessed 🥰
Outstanding as always 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆He will always be Ozone to me❣️❣️❣️❣️
I get emotional watching Breakin 1 and especially 2. So fresh and fun. Ozone was an excellent dancer and could really act. He'll be missed.
He be truly be missed
Much luv.. from 804.. nice work...
Shabba was known for Poplockin, NOT breakdancin. Breakdancin was in New York heavy bac then, "Rock Steady Crew", "New York City breakers". Westcoast had mostly Poplockin. Movies like "Footloose" "Breakin" was about westcoast lifestyle, with a caucasian female as the Star, smh. New York flicks were more like "Beatstreet, Wildstyle, Krushgroove ect". More of a deeper hiphop feel. Graffiti, breakin, Rappin, dj'ing ect.
Word
Let's not forget popping and locking IS part of Breaking. Let's not down play that. And Let's not forget the movie Krush Groove showed how the Industry moved in and destroyed real Hip Hop. The only group that got paid was Run DMC
@@Kabingis Other groups was PAID was before dmc. They always PAID rappers that made records, they didn't do it for FREE. It just wasn't BIG MONEY. Rundmc just brought hiphop to the Mainstream and made it so that rapperscan wear their "StreetClothes". Before them rappers wore clothes that Parliament funk groups wore. Rundmc changed the fashion
Shabba Doo has never been underrated ...... I love that MAN,,, AND HE LOOKS FINER NOW.... He was my first crush EVER when I was a child!!! I didn't know what love was.....BUT I LOVED HIM!!!!
My favorite line in breakin was when the the dance instructor asked ozone who he was he replied famously’ Orlando,choreographer,Dancer! Word.
I was so I'm love with him,he was so freaking handsome and talented. Breakin and breakin 2 are still in my favorites. I cried so much they day I heard he died,rip.
Oh wow 🤩 gotta see this one…thank you for doing it. Brings back memories of my 80s childhood when every other movie was about breakdancing.
Omg that has upset me, I didnt no he was gone 😢 He truly was the Godfather of Street Dance. BREAKIN is one of the best movies made to date, it was so authentic and the blend of cultures made it great. 💛 RIP to Shabba doo...an original creater. Thank you for making history with ur art work 🙏🏽
R.I.P. to the man I saw on the movie screen who also became a friend.
He always laughed when I told him how he helped my teenage dating life because I had a similar look as him. He said he was still the best looking between me and him. lol
Crazy story: I grew up with his niece in Chicago and when Breakin came out she was telling us that he was her uncle but we didn’t believe her…years later after meeting and becoming friends I found out that she was telling the truth after all.
I’m also good friends with his son.
MY Man 50 grand! 🙏🏿👊🏿
Legend 🥺😢
I had the biggest crush on him. Clogged ateries? He seemed like he was healthy and ate healthy.
I got 2 stents in my veins due to clogged arteries....there are symptoms...he ignored them...People of color don't go to the doctor..I'm a gay man...he was fine.
Another great video as usual!! Rest In Peace and Power Shabba Doo!
Thx u for the story u should have your own tv show
Thank you! for this great story on Shabba-Doo always remember him from Soul Train. Him his sister and the locker were great performers. Just bringing back great memories.
so glad you did this. his career needs to be highlighted. I remember his crew dancing on What's Happening.
That prop that Turbo used in that dance sequence was used on a Nightmare on Elm Street when Tna was murdered 😳
You are a underrated young man, you also seen like a good dude and loyal, A friend to want forever.
This is an excellent one man! Thank you!
MANNNNN. I LOVED this movie. TFS. You know Taco just passed away. Taco was Poppin Pete's dance partner in Breakin. He was also in Micheal Jackson's video Smooth Criminal. Shabba Doo dancing was legendary. Toni Basil from the lockers get a lot of credit for her dancing, but NEVER mentions that she started in the group.🤔😒
It's a shame Toni Basil at her mid 70's still not given the recognition she RIGHTLY deserves!!
White people often steal the credit, without giving proper due to the black folks who taught them/brought them into the loop.
@@sandrasanders706 why should this white woman get credit for misappropriating black dance moves....as always they get the recognition.
Your facts r A1 your journalism Skillz r great I love your vids keep the heat coming do one on Marvin Gaye I love his music
Rest in peace Shabba Doo aka Ozone God bless your memories 🕊
Wow!!! Thanks for this!!! He was an awesome dude full of knowledge. It still hurts. One of the coolest dudes you ever want to meet. You did your research thoroughly!!!
I hardly knew any of these things about him. Fascinating. Thank you for the story.
Breakin was one of my favorite movies. I should watch back in the 80s it over and over again. I had a huge crush on Ozone in Breakin. RIP❤🙏
He was my childhood crush. I was so heartbroken when I found out he passed away. The media says he had a son and a daughter. But they also said Gwendolyn Powell had only one child with him and he didn’t have children with Lela Rochon. So did he only have 1 child or two?
Breakin' & Breakin' 2 were HUGE classics. They can never take those away from us. Every kids was dying for a Breakin' 3 back then....but in the end, I guess I'm glad they never did one. I still watch those movies to this day. RIP Ozone!
He will be missed he a good dancer
I love your videos. Please keep them coming
Love these stories so much
Awww I didn’t know he died that was one of my favorite movie so sad where I been smh RIP 🕊🕊🕊
Yes back with another banger video 🔥❤️
