The Olympics are almost over, but not quite yet! There are still plenty of events left before the closing ceremony on Sunday. We’re rooting for all of our home team athletes, and are especially excited about the introduction of competitive breakdancing — better known as Breakin’ — into the Games.

The dance style was created in New York City and coincided with the rise of hip-hop in the 1970s and ‘80s. Starting today, 16 B-Boys and 16 B-Girls from more than a dozen countries will face off with the hopes of emerging as the first medal winners of the inaugural Olympic Breakin’ competition. Let’s get into the champion spirit, and cheer on team U.S.A., with music!

So for today’s 9:30 Coffee Break, what songs relating to breakdancing or breakin’ would you like to hear?
