pantyhose used to be wrapped around the microphones in the studio to 'soften" the sound. No Pantyhose for MCA.
Just about to state this. Socks, sponges and panty hose to cover the mic heads. Old school.
@@RetroStefRemixif you were from NY, it was Run Dmc, Ll cool j, Beastie Boys...
And as a pop filter to keep the "P"s in your speech from popping loud in the sensitivity of the mic
How anyone over 16 hasn't heard this is beyond me
Beastie Boys Root Down is a good one. Also they make their own beats.
As a GenX’r I grew up to these innovators. The only regrets I’ve ever heard them express is the tough guy image they fronted via the Label. All they cared about really was truth fun in art and one human race joined by ethnic diversity.
_Tell me people what makes you so afraid of all these people that you say you hate_
No auto tune. And they don't just sound like this, they were ever evolving. Anything from the album Paul's Boutique is a great choice for this channel. Also, Do you Believe in Love came out in 98.
Tough to hear both channels if you aren’t wearing both headphones. You’re hearing half the song
@@m.ericwatson968 yeah but unless your listening to the Beatles or something you’re not “missing half the song”. Most drums, bass and vocals are down the middle, and nothing has been panned 100% hard left or hard right since the 50’s.
The reason why DJ Hurricane's voice is faded is cause they called him at home and he cut his part over the phone. What a legend.
They woke the poor guy up to record him. Let the man sleep!
I had the VW badge on a fake gold chain in the eighties thinking I was Beastie Boy 😂 Loved every moment of the Beastie Boy era. R.I.P MCA.
Their live version of Sabotage on Letterman is 🔥
I always have to shout out Moms Mabley on this song for that sample scratch..."Ah yes indeed it's funtime" she was a freeking hysterical comedienne!!!
Three MCs and one DJ is a song that you should listen to 😁😃🎶🎶
Banger of a track! bb's are GOATs!
must do: shadrach, car thief, paul revere, the new style, egg man, get it together, b-boy boullibaise, etc., etc.
Gotta do Shaddrach or High Plains Drifter. Or just all of Paul's Boutique.
Brooklyn!
Their album "I'll Communication" is a must have! < check out more! Not on this record, but epic: "Three MC's and One DJ" ♥
Great video, thanks.
Hip Hop geniuses fella
sometimes i wish i could be an adult and hear this iconic stuff for the first time. but sheeit high school would've sucked without the beasties
Great reaction
Beasties are among best beat flippers in the genre's history. Every track on Paul's Boutique is the ultimate example and when Mike came aboard their live shows
were ALL about the flips
"this beat is all over the place" well it's the Beastie Boys 😂😂
Check out Beastie Boys, Root Down.
You won’t be disappointed….,,
Saw this live in 94 it was THE BIGGEST POGO PIT IVE EVER SEEN
"Professor Booty" from the Check Your Head album. it came out before this song.
Constant sampling is what they stated a lot after Paul’s Boutique. They are amazing and talented artists. They always put me in a good mood, love them for that.
They can play instrument's too, the Up-right bass in the song is played by MCA..(Rip). Mike D does the extra drum stuff😎
Keep going with the Beasties. You'll pick up more subscribers. Try Paul Revere next. It's from their first album and has one of the sickest beats in history.
old school is the best school. btw, people used to put panty hose over the mic if they couldn't afford a proper wind screen to smooth out the sound. I could never decide if that line means they got the money now to record right, or if they always keep it raw and don't care about that sort of thing. I never thought the panty hose were worn by anybody... but hey, it takes all kinds to make a world!
Beastie Boys are just too cool. You should react to Beastie Boys - "The Move", lots of cool switch-ups.
They had the best beats of any group back in the day! Hip Hop Pioneers for sure!
Not only did they have the best beats, they legit played them. Most of the tracks on Check Your Head and beyond are made up of The Boys playing their own instruments
“Oh yes indeed it’s fun time…..”
Yeah, they're stylin' with one another on the mic, equally a competition as a collaboration, 3 good friends that started as a raw punk rock band that played hip hop/rap with one another on the side for fun; influence is everything
The Beasties write most of their songs like science. They all start with a BPM (beat per minute count) and that is why the music may flip slightly from MC to MC. All three have their own flows.
Hit Paul's Boutique up to hear some beat flips.
🐐’s and that’s not an exaggeration. Generational.
@3:46 “think I’m gonna change my style just to fit in ?”……. unfortunately 3 seconds earlier the song is censored.
First time on your channel, good sir! Nice reaction. Ahh man, when I was a young teen it was all about RUN-DMC, LL Cool J, Public Enemy and The Beastie Boys.
This whole album is absolutely iconic
First time? This was huge. Jesus, I'm getting old. Do "Hey Ladies" from "Paul's Boutique".
Ren does a Rap that’s a Beastie Boys retake. Just crazy fun. What you Want
Huge hit!!!
Ill Communication turns THIRTY in eight days. Soundtrack to my senior year in college
Classic, Yes !!😁❤
Now I want Heart Attack Man
This tune is the _shit_
PS, that dog isn't Cujo. That's Rufus. RIP Rufus and RIP MCA
You are missing this song, any song really listening in one ear. They go back and forth in the headphones/speakers. Please put them on both ears)😅
Such a cool classic tune🔊🎤👌🏼
Check out the best freestyle battle rapper from back in the late 90's, possibly of all time, Eyedea.
React to one of his written songs called Eyedea- Even Shadows Have Shadows
More Beastie Boys!
Nostalgic video if you grew up in vegas in the 80s and 90s. That glass pool that was across from Mandalay bay is gone and so is the Hilton.
Def one of my fave BB tunes❤
Howlin' for Judy by Jeremy Steig
If you want to check out something that's 180* from this. Take a listen to Patty Loveless "You'll never leave Harlan alive"
🔥💪👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💪🔥👍🔥🔥
Wait.. Eddie Murphy doing reactions nowadays 😮
Have you checked out Ren - What You Want? He's paying homage to Beastie Boys.
Much love and respect from The UK.
@@RetroStefRemix I think you'll enjoy jumping down Rens rabbit hole, he's a master of all genres. Look forward to your reaction. 😁
like how ur videos don't contain a ridiculous amount of analyzing. good one
Just subcribed, gonna go through your catalog, but I have the suggestions of anything from Nas' "Illmatic", De La Soul's "Stakes is High", Mobb Deep's "The Infamous...", and any single song affiliated with the Wu-Tang Clan. Non-rap: any single song from The Queens of the Stone Age. 👺
E Pluribus Funk
He was referring to a spit guard for the mic. Panties stretched over some coat hanger wire. Am I wrong?
I never Rock the mic with the pantyhose, you will never censor me..
React to anything ? I guess I'm gonna stick with something rap related.
Please react to: BABYMETAL - BxMxC Live 2024 LEGEND MM
Did this old dude just say “old heads”?
How the actual Hell does someone review a song with one headphone off? What a total disappointing reviewer.
What’s a M&M?
Thanks youtube for the: Don't recommend channel option.
Great reaction
There's very few acts , at any level but let alone already established , that will have the guts to literally put out whatever kind of music they want , because they want to. Now you'd think it wouldn't be a big deal but it is. It's a huge financial risk really . These guys made straight hip hop, blended hip hop with rock, straight up punk rock , jazzy instrumentals , trippy space jams , you name it. But it was all authentic , they did it because they loved it .
Agreed.
