If you see how many homespun dimwits are teaching elementary school kids 'street dance' or 'hip hop dance' all over the world - Rock Steady Crew could have made real money if they had somehow managed to brand themselves and breakdancing more - nationwide RSC breakdance schools or some such. Missed opportunities always seem to be the recurring theme for a lot of pioneers from bitd
The emphasis on RSC members being required Grade A students is an obvious attempt to steer well away from any street association 'breakdancing' might still have in the minds of concerned parents. I remember buck4 and kuriaki were both killed after drug game entanglements, Kuriaki having been tortured in his own garage iirc? Shit got ugly.
