What are the iconic women’s breakdance performances?

I just watched the first round of Olympic B-girls breaking and I am already obsessed. Knowledgeable mefites, what specific performances and videos should I watch if I want to see B-girls at the top of their game? What are the greatest hits?

I am sure others will come with many more performances that are more current but I'll start off with the music video for Platoon by Jungle, featuring B-Girl Terra. She and her older sister B-Girl Eddie are still breaking, though she apparently didn't qualify for the Olympics.

Have you ever seen the video for Run DMC vs Jason Nevins, "Its like that"?

Watch it. Become Obsessed. And find more videos of the performers you google.

I haven't watched the Olympics, but I expect you can rediscover quite a few of the participants in France in the RedBullBCOne channel on Youtube.
