New York City Breaker used to be considered a rival crew of Rock Steady Crew back in the days.
The guy named Michael Holman picked up good breakers from different crews such as Floormasters
and put them into one group and named it "New York City Breakers".
The group consited of KID NICE, MR. WAVE, ACTION, LIL LEP,
GLIDE MASTER, ICEY ICE, POWERFUL PEXSTER, and FLIP ROCK.
The movie "Beat Street" featured their battle against Rock Steady Crew and the scene is legendary.
This battle scene inspired so many people and made them crazy about breaking.
New York City Breakers also appeared on a hip hop TV program "Grafitti Rock" and also "Soul Train"
They even performed at Lincoln Center in front of Ronald Reagan.
