A documentary about the Cannon Group was released in 2014 called Electric Boogaloo: The Wild, Untold Story of Cannon Films of which Breakin' and Breakin' 2 were featured.

Other news articles and media have used the Electric Boogaloo subtitle, and it has also become an Internet meme. An episode of the television show It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia was titled 'Chardee MacDennis 2: Electric Boogaloo'. The band Minus the Bear features the song 'Get Me Naked 2: Electric Boogaloo' on the album Highly Refined Pirates. The band Five Iron Frenzy titled one of their albums Five Iron Frenzy 2: Electric Boogaloo. The usual connotation is of either a ridiculous sequel title, or of the follow-up to an obscure or eclectic film (or other work). The subtitle 'Electric Boogaloo', originally a reference to a funk-oriented dance style of the same name, has entered the popular culture lexicon as a snowclone nickname to denote an archetypal sequel. On April 21, 2015, Shout! Factory released the film, along with Breakin', as a double feature Blu-ray. On April 15, 2003, MGM Home Entertainment released Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo as a bare-bones DVD.
