      Think I just realized something. The part before this that talks about black/ white world and then mentions only Irish names, then followed by great Bob Marley line is bboys encouraging a more effective, peaceful resolution to the terrorist attacks going on between the "black" (dark haired) and white Irish in Northern Ireland in the 80s. Hair color is considered a good way to describe catholic/protestant there. They were big into car bombs. So many atrocitices throughout history about religion.

Take MCA out when you listen to really appreciate and its insane. Then put MCA’s voice back in when you listen again and appreciate how he can just flow effortlessly over that insanely technical and complex production. Oh and his lyrics are nothing short of amazing. 10/10

    The 1970's samples and references are all over this album. The Beasties recorded Paul's Boutique while living in a huge rented 1970's home in the hills of Los Angeles, dressing in 1970's outfits "borrowed" from the closet in the home and ransacking thrift stores by day for vintage albums to sample. Legend has it that they also threw some epic parties at that house that were attended by the hottest celebrities of the day. Sounds like a blast!

    10:42. The mythical: "It's a trip. It's got a funky beat. I can bug out to it!" And listen to this bass-line at 09:05!!! We don't make that kind of pure sound anymore...

    At 3:10: "I caught a bullet in the lung from Bernie (Bern-hard) Goetz"
    I'm a New Yorker (Flatbush, Brooklyn, RIP MCA). When Goetz shot those guys on the subway in the 80's the news reported his name alternately as "Bernie" or "Bernhard".
    Layers upon layers. Man, you can geek out SO HARD on this album.

    Proper business. This is the sh!t and no mistake - before the awesomeness of 90's hiphop we had this! Dust brothers and Beasties decided to smash hiphop and despite how cool the 90s were, this is still something that tears down any party.
