Ollie & Jerry
American dance-pop duo
Ollie & Jerry was an American dance-pop duo active in the 1980s, consisting of drummer Ollie E. Brown and R&B singer/bassist Jerry Knight.[1]
Despite releasing no studio albums under their own name, the duo is still widely known for its hit single "Breakin'... There's No Stopping Us", a dance-influenced track that became a top-10 hit in the United States and the United Kingdom, and it was featured as the theme song of the film Breakin' and released on its accompanying soundtrack.[1] However, the group disbanded in mid-1985 after the release of their second single "Electric Boogaloo".[1] As a result, "Electric Boogaloo" failed to repeat the success of "Breakin'..." and the duo is widely considered a one-hit wonder.[2]
