Throwback Commercial: Alfonso’s Breakin’ and Poppin’

Actor Alfonso Ribeiro is known for his years of portraying “Carlton,” Will Smith’s loveable annoying cousin on the hit TV series “The Fresh Price Of Bel Air.” Some may even remember Riberio as”Alfonso Spears” on the 80′s sitcom “Silver Spoons.” We don’t remember Ribeiro for this 80′s commercial aired on MTV.

Ribeiro took advantage of the Hip-Hop craze and offer the kids “ Alfonso’s Breakin’ and Poppin’.” A video designed to help the youngin’s learn some of the aspects of Hip-Hop. Think of this as the first ever version of Kids Bop.
