He won three consecutive years. There have been a few that have also achieved this as well. That isn't to take away from Mike, who is an absolute MONSTER!
Go down the beastie boys rabbit hole, it’s brilliant. They don’t miss. The entire license to ill album brought hip hop to the mainstream. “New Style” is incredible fast forward a few years to collaboration with Q Tip “ Get it together”. Enjoy the journey.
Beastie boys wasn't the beginning of hip hop but they definitely helped hip hop be what it is today. They were doing shit no one was doing. This is hip hop royalty my friend.
The thing most people seem to miss about this, the DJ is only using 1 single record. He is not mixing between 2 or having a back track. So every single sound from the beat comes from a single record isolated on his mixer, synced perfectly with the lyrics.
That was Broadcast Live from the MTV awards show . They literally announced the Beastie Boys then cut to the street Where Mic Master Mike was walking to the Building where the BB’s Basement studio was located for many many years in Brooklyn . They performed this Live in One Take for the MTV Music Awards . I watched this Live that night and over a hundred times since . I e been to several Beastie boys concerts in 80’s & 90’s . Their first album came out my Senior Year 🔥. The rest is History ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ please listen to their first two albums in their entirety . Licensed to I’ll and Paul’ s Boutique . Preferably in that order . Do Paul’s Boutique first please. 🙏 and Thanks⭐️
Same. I remember watching them play Sabotage on Letterman and loving it. Paul’s Boutique was so ahead of its time. You couldn’t financially make that album today with the amount of samples on it.
The man at the turntable is mixmaster Mike. He is a god amongst DJs. He would go to contest and mop the floor so hard that they had to force him to stop competing in contests and eventually made him a judge the man’s legendary and one day he decided to call up the Beastie Boys and see what they were up to and you can hear that call on the album Hello Nasty.
This song was originally released on Hello Nasty in 1999. But the Beasties did a lot to represent the roots of hip hop throughout their careers. As this was the model for original Hip Hop. Sure Shot!!!!
It’s hard to think of more iconic Gen X figures than the Beasties. They were instrumental in creating a lot of our generation’s culture (especially in the 90’s). Trend setters in so many ways.
Yeah, as a millennial it was before my time. We thought of it as dated Boomer shit - either old hippies with beads and crystals or sweaty Leisure Suit Larry types. Of course, now Zoomers and Alphas are talking about Mercury being in retrograde.
yay Boogie!! You have NO IDEA how much I love the Beastie Boys! Been listening to them since they came out when I was in middle/ high school (yea I'm old haha) Could I suggest you do "Paul Revere" next? It's a story telling Rap. That's my personal favorite. There's no official video, but they do have it on their youtube. :)
Mix Master Mike is one of the best DJs of all time. And I think he's still working. You gotta appreciate the skill it takes to basically supply the whole "band" (drums, bass, etc.) for this track using nothing but a turntable & pure talent.
You could check out Mix Master Mike - He was a DJ legend and won the title in '92 and '93 and was basically asked to retire because he was too good - He worked with the Beastie Boys quite a bit.
Yo son callin' out ya zodiac sign been a thing in rap since late 70s0early 80s. this is 1000% pure unadulterated hi-hop by 4 absolutely legendary masters of rap WORD UP!! #RIPMC
I’m 45 and know the zodiac signs just for women. It’s all stupid af but I’m a triple Scorpio and they loved that. So I played along. It’s been going on forever man.
Now you see the link between the ghostbusters and the beastie boys and the video of Ren what you want which will become even more apparent with watching Intergalactic
glad you enjoyed it -- it was live fire, bare bones, just three MCs and one DJ -- ain't nobody like the Beasties, they at the top of the game/ RIP Adam Yauch
I love these Beastie Boys reactions, they were innovators ahead of their time, they were some of the best samplers of all time. Anything off of the album Paul’s boutique is legendary, start with Shake, your rump, or Car Or High Plains drifter
If you’re digging through Golden Era Hip Hop, I recommend you head out West next and react to “Drop” by Tha Pharcyde. The hook is just a scratched sample from a Beasties song and some humming. That whole Pharcyde album was produced by the one and only J Dilla when his abilities were just starting to peak.
Mix Master Mike did this whole video with the Beasties in 1 take. the man is a legendary DJ and yes... the rumors about him being asked to stop competing in the DJ championships is true. nobody could beat him. as for the zodiac stuff... that's been a big thing for a lot of people since at least the 60s
The DJ is mix master mike. He was the reason i got into spinning vinyl.....i still have rare vinyl from those days stored away with my decks. No digital for us, took me about 2 years to get really good. Beastie boys also have great breakdancing beats .flute loop off ill communication won me a contest. Its sad MC A. Is gone, i will always love the beastie boys, i grew up with their music
The backpack is a nod to Ghostbusters! You basically got there yourself!😂 Also, as NYer, I'm always amazed at ppls reactions to our everyday life. Like we're aliens lol. But then again, we are a different breed!
They were at this for... Oh, four decades? They were pioneers and musicians from every genre pay homage (Does the cover to License To Ill look familiar to you? Em was paying homage with his entire album cover) and recognize BB as the punk band that transitioned to their own early form of hip hop that influenced the early scene. Especially east coast tri-state rap. To see how they changed, listen to their first hit, "Fight For Your Right To Party", which came out a few years before this , then skip ahead a decade and listen to "sabotage" (watch the music videos whenever a song has one; the videos are half of the experience and they're award winning at times) and then skip ahead a decade from that period and listen to "Intergalactic". They continued to make new music for two at least another decade after that era up until Adam died of cancer. They never stopped writing and touring and evolving until the band wasn't whole and they respectfully refused to continue without all three members. There was no replacing any individual and it wouldn't be the same. The Beastie Boy journey is wild. Definitely check out their album Paul's Boutique, their most experimental and criticality beloved album, too. It was reportediy Miles Davis' favorite album just before he passed away.
Thx for more b boys bro... Dig into it, maybe try "the grasshopper", I dig it and I've been digging beastie boys since 1988. Not to brag about my age, lol
I watched them touring UK in 86 as a 17 year old and been listening ever since. Try a little "Brass Monkey" (that funky monkey, Brass Monkey Junkie, that funky monkey)
Back when hip hop first got started, the DJ was everything. MCs (rappers/vocalists) were optional, and often the DJ might also be the MC. Them posing before and after the track was symbolic of how the MCs did NOTHING without the DJ. Every beat, sound and scratch on this track was all off that one LP MixMaster Mike was using.
7:35 - You're not wrong, lol! Thing about the zodiac signs is that they're vague and open-ended enough to match up pretty much no matter what. I was really interested in it when I was younger because I got into computers, and found a program that generated "bio-rhythm charts"-- they might still exist today, but I haven't looked into it since the 80's. It charted out 3 or 4 aspects of your life/personality based on your birth day, month, and year, and was supposed to show you when to focus on certain things, and when to avoid others. Like, if you were on a low "physical" cycle, you'd want to avoid physical activities, but if you were on a high "intellect" cycle, you'd want to focus on things that required thought and detail. It sounds so dumb now, and it's so clear that it's just vague enough to be interpreted any way you want, but man it was fun to look at and think about. An important learning point in my life. Oh, and this Beastie Boys vid is the best, and your reaction is stellar! :)

MixMaster Mike won the world DJ championship so many times that they asked him to stop entering so somebody else could have a chance.
He won three consecutive years. There have been a few that have also achieved this as well. That isn't to take away from Mike, who is an absolute MONSTER!
I love this FACT.
White Lives Matter too. 😂
The Chuck Norris of spinnin'.
no cap. he is up there with qbert
They were the first rappers to have #1 album in USA in 1986 with Licence To Ill
I can still sing that entire album word for word front to back hahah
Checkout Rapture by Blondie -
Much props, I had to research that because I thought it was Run-DMC's "Raising Hell" (got to #3 in 1986)
I still got that in vinyl.
If they had a dif colour skin they would be the best ever...
3 rappers, 1 DJ, live, one take, no auto tune, no semi-naked women, no guns, no drugs. How rap-hip hop should be.
and only 92 bottles of baby oil.
3 MCs! Any kid with a mic can call himself a rapper
@@vbtrobotics3652 Too many rappers...
...and not enough MC's.
Ain't nobody cooler than the Beastie Boys. This is real hip hop. That's dope you dig it.🔥
One take, done live, one record to scratch for the beat. Pure hip hop and skills.
Go down the beastie boys rabbit hole, it’s brilliant. They don’t miss. The entire license to ill album brought hip hop to the mainstream. “New Style” is incredible fast forward a few years to collaboration with Q Tip “ Get it together”. Enjoy the journey.
"In the South, this is disrespectful. This'll start a fight" 😂😂😂
So true, lmao.
💯
you're not supposed to let strangers in the building...
Trying to get in a building you don't belong to might get you a beat down here on East Coast 😂
@@melissaford717 cultural differences 😂
In NYC you can get into mostly any building with a clipboard. I'd definitely hold the door for anyone with that backpack.
It's a proton pack. Dudes a Straight up Ghost Buster.
Beastie boys wasn't the beginning of hip hop but they definitely helped hip hop be what it is today. They were doing shit no one was doing. This is hip hop royalty my friend.
A few came before but ya, these guys certainly helped define the genre
gotta maybe listen to some RUN DMC too.
I love beastie boys since i was 13, I'm 51 now😁👍
The thing most people seem to miss about this, the DJ is only using 1 single record. He is not mixing between 2 or having a back track. So every single sound from the beat comes from a single record isolated on his mixer, synced perfectly with the lyrics.
Banger. 🔥 Still holds up 26 years later!

Also, anyone from the 80's would recognize the backpack/outfit as an homage to Ghostbusters.
Don't forget agliolio
Yeah he's literally dressed as a ghostbuster. Same as the movies.
RIP MCA
Live, 1 take, DJ doing the whole beat
Awesome...i think this was even a throwback when they did this like 30 years ago!!!

turned my turntable into a wahwahpedal
All of that music from one piece of vinyl!
it was one of his routine and they used it to make this track... th-cam.com/video/FkH6itxRgig/w-d-xo.htmlsi=7Hbr2cUFrkBwP6T0
Yes but a shaman was on the wheel...
So fun to see young dudes realizing how dope the end of the century was for music.
I'm 42, everything from Beastie Boys is straight FIRE!!!!
Root Down
Shake Your Rump
Sure Shot
😻😻😻
Sure Shot ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
The beastie boys reaction brought me to your channel. Your personality brought me back and earned a subscribe
Check No Sleep Til Brooklyn 👍
When you are so good that they tell you to stop showing up at competitions, your name would be Mix Master Mike.
you werent born yet and this was our songs
Goddam that DJ made my day....
This song was originally released on Hello Nasty in 1999. But the Beasties did a lot to represent the roots of hip hop throughout their careers. As this was the model for original Hip Hop.
Sure Shot!!!!
Bro, you gotta get on that "Licesend To ILL" album. There are so many bangers. Great reaction! Keep it up!
We love these reactions cuz we were raised on it.
From a Gen Xer
It’s hard to think of more iconic Gen X figures than the Beasties. They were instrumental in creating a lot of our generation’s culture (especially in the 90’s). Trend setters in so many ways.
It looks like a Proton Pack from a Ghostbusters movie to me
It is
Coolest backpack ever
Exterminator’s back pack
@AdamHodges-o6x I mean, isn't a proton pack an exterminator pack, it just exterminats ghosts. Lol
Dude, zodiacs were big before me and I’m 58. The hippies in the 60s used it as a pick up line “hey baby, what’s your sign?”
true 😆😆😆
Yeah, as a millennial it was before my time. We thought of it as dated Boomer shit - either old hippies with beads and crystals or sweaty Leisure Suit Larry types. Of course, now Zoomers and Alphas are talking about Mercury being in retrograde.
@@mauruhkatigaming4807 Reading a millennial talking about Zoomers and Alphas, makes me feel old... Aren't you still kids, millennials ?
Your head will spin when you hear Intergalactic !!
"WE MAKIN HIS STO REE" - they werent lying. Big up! Been a bboy fan since 1986. 😎🙌
The New Style from this band will blow you away.
The party don't start until the DJ arrives!!!
yay Boogie!! You have NO IDEA how much I love the Beastie Boys! Been listening to them since they came out when I was in middle/ high school (yea I'm old haha) Could I suggest you do "Paul Revere" next? It's a story telling Rap. That's my personal favorite.

They had been performing since they were Teenagers.
Here they are in their 30s.
MCA passed at the age of 47 in 2012.
I love seeing appreciation for Beastie today. They got more hate than deserved back in the day. Absolute legends.
OMG I laughed out loud when you said.. " IN THE SOUTH.... " .. I knew what was comin' ... LOL NEW SUBSCRIBER ! LOL THAT COMMENT ALONE!!
Mix Master Mike is one of the best DJs of all time. And I think he's still working. You gotta appreciate the skill it takes to basically supply the whole "band" (drums, bass, etc.) for this track using nothing but a turntable & pure talent.
Only one turn table at that
Yep 3 Jewish dudes from Brooklyn, legends!
This came out when the Beastie Boys had already been famous for 20 years. They were established, hungry, innovative, and unique beyond compare.
The Beastie Boys became famous in 1986. This song came out in 1998 on Hello Nasty. That's 12 years, not 20.
Brother, you nailed it . I’m enjoying your enthusiasm about music from my day . Thanks again ✌️ ❤
You could check out Mix Master Mike - He was a DJ legend and won the title in '92 and '93 and was basically asked to retire because he was too good - He worked with the Beastie Boys quite a bit.
that is pure fire. The Beastie Boys are just FUN.
So happy to see a new Beastie Boys fan. I been a fan since they came out in 1986 and they're still my favorite of all time.
Love the Beastie reactions. This is the 3rd one I've watched. Hope you keep posting more.
Not the beginning of hip hop, just the perfection.
Of all the shows I've ever seen, this is the one band that I'm glad I got the chance to see live.
Yo son callin' out ya zodiac sign been a thing in rap since late 70s0early 80s. this is 1000% pure unadulterated hi-hop by 4 absolutely legendary masters of rap WORD UP!! #RIPMC
Liscensed To Ill was released in late1986, when I was in 7th Grade, I was 12. These cats are absolute Hip Hop Roylaty. Rest In Beats, MCA.
Just the best! This is real hip hop!
The zodiac ish been around forever dawg! It was cliche of EARLY hip hop records (1979-82ish), Beasties doing loving tribute to it here
They’ve been cooking since inception. They’re the GOATS! Love how you appreciate them. Can’t get enough!! 🙌🏼❤
It's all good bro, I'm from 78! You rock man!
I’m 45 and know the zodiac signs just for women. It’s all stupid af but I’m a triple Scorpio and they loved that. So I played along. It’s been going on forever man.
Omg, better version of Eastvan Hotbox.
We knew we were witnessing history when it dropped on MTV....you could feel it.
Pioneers in the Rap Game.... don't get it twisted. As a 58 year old man, this is what my generation gave to the world.
Totally unique sound. Miss them.
Now you see the link between the ghostbusters and the beastie boys and the video of Ren what you want which will become even more apparent with watching Intergalactic
This was off their 5th album in 1998.
I remember it well back in the day and at first, I didn't like it until I listened to the songs and understood.
glad you enjoyed it -- it was live fire, bare bones, just three MCs and one DJ -- ain't nobody like the Beasties, they at the top of the game/ RIP Adam Yauch
I love seeing you young bucks enjoying classic we rocked to back in our day. ♥️
Mix Master Mike is a true legend. Find the documentary Scratch for more great stuff!
I love these Beastie Boys reactions, they were innovators ahead of their time, they were some of the best samplers of all time. Anything off of the album Paul’s boutique is legendary, start with Shake, your rump, or Car Or High Plains drifter
Paul’s Boutique is so dam good.
I just decided to subscribe with “I decided to put some LED lights up, and let’s see where it goes from there.” Yes.
Got to see them 3 times. RIP Adam

The Beasties don’t get the credit they deserve !!
Legit some of the first godfathers of Hip Hop.
young buck, this is 1999, rap started in 1973, but they pay hommage to the roots...BEASTIES...RAP LEGENDS AND PIONEERS ;)
That is a Proton Pack my dude. Bustin' makes me feel good!
hiphop in it's purest form
Dj Hurricane was nice too but Dj Master Mike did his thing.
RIP MCA!!!
That's a portable record player on MMM back. He uses that to listen to LP's at the record store.
there are Mcs in every nation on this planet
which made a tribute in theeir way
for this track !
they put the rap on the global map.-
MCA (RIP) has a line in Intergalactic that goes "We are from the family tree of old school hip hop"...
He isn't boasting or lying, straight fact!
This really shows the roots of what the original street rap was like. Producer Rick Rubin caught this when most everybody was doing R&B production.
This is not the beginning of Hiphop it's the climax of Hiphop
“From Manhattan to the Miracle Mile” (Miami is the “6th borough” of NYC)
Mix Master Mike did this whole video with the Beasties in 1 take. the man is a legendary DJ and yes... the rumors about him being asked to stop competing in the DJ championships is true. nobody could beat him. as for the zodiac stuff... that's been a big thing for a lot of people since at least the 60s
3:48 Good catch. It's a proton pack. They were used in the movie Ghostbusters to catch ghosts. 😅
"Shake your rump" by the Beastie Boys.
I second that motion ✋

Agreed!
Definitely
I want Mike Ds hat from that one!
That was one take live too. Hungry indeed.
Paul Revere is a must.

Now, this is my first taste of Beastie Boys. I am OLd REV.
Back when hip hop first got started, the DJ was everything. MCs (rappers/vocalists) were optional, and often the DJ might also be the MC. Them posing before and after the track was symbolic of how the MCs did NOTHING without the DJ.

7:35 - You're not wrong, lol! Thing about the zodiac signs is that they're vague and open-ended enough to match up pretty much no matter what. I was really interested in it when I was younger because I got into computers, and found a program that generated "bio-rhythm charts"-- they might still exist today, but I haven't looked into it since the 80's. It charted out 3 or 4 aspects of your life/personality based on your birth day, month, and year, and was supposed to show you when to focus on certain things, and when to avoid others. Like, if you were on a low "physical" cycle, you'd want to avoid physical activities, but if you were on a high "intellect" cycle, you'd want to focus on things that required thought and detail.
It sounds so dumb now, and it's so clear that it's just vague enough to be interpreted any way you want, but man it was fun to look at and think about. An important learning point in my life.
