      LL Cool J and Chuck D inducted Beastie into the Hall of Fame. LL tells the story about Beasties taking his demo tape to Rick Rubin and getting LL his record deal with Def Jam.
      Just thought about that after hearing that clubhouse conversation the other day, when they were talking about Beastie Boys impact on Hiphop.

      @@amariebfree5326 Rubin's producing came first. When the beastie boys were a punk band, Rubin was producing his first records in his dorm room. The beastie boys were his friends and would listen to demo tapes and filter out the good ones to give to Rick so he could produce a record with them. Like I said, that's how we have LL Cool J. Then the beasties transitioned to hip hop and obviously were produced by Rick.

      I get what you are saying, but Punk music was all but gone by the time that BB's came out. It was more of the Heavy / Thrash rock groups like Anthrax taking up with the likes of Public Enemy. The heavy rock bands really helped bring hip hop to the suburbs. Really do not mean to rag on you, I'm just saying that Punk was dead by then and it was more the heavy / thrash metal bands that promoted Hip Hop. To your point, us Thrash metal fans did dress more in a punk style than typical heavy metal. I don't know your age, but I am 50 and that was right in my teens. Peace..

    The Boys came from punk rock, and started as a punk band, actually two punk bands, but they absolutely LOVED hip-hop from day one, and are among its old school innovators because of how much they loved it, and contributed to it. The Beasties just brought their punk rock energy and sensibility to rap, and they were absolutely in it for the true hip-hop.

      Literally, she sheer amount of OG hip-hop artists that credit the beastie boys with inspiring them. They were at the ground floor of the birth of hip-hop, and are more deeply embedded in the scene than ANYONE criticizing them. They used to hang in rick rubin's college dorm, and their work paid for the expansion of def jam, which they never even got paid for due to the split.

    I love this so much. I've watched it over and over. I'm a white woman (only bringing race in because that's a real thing) in my late 40s (sigh) who listened to this album on repeat for a year after it came out. I always loved the Beastie Boys but I can't say I thought I was a hip hop fan at the time. I just knew that they were poetry in motion and the background beats were so groovy. I listened to Tribe, Pharcyde, The Roots, Outkast and other 80s/90s groups because it was art. Artistry for the ears. I love hearing this analysis from someone who really knows hip hop. I learned so much about how to appreciate and break down a hip hop song. I listen to those songs from years ago on a deeper level now. So thanks. 😄

    The Beastie Boys are incredible producers. They usually share production credit with their their actual producer so it’s hard to know who’s responsible for what but I know they have some serious chops of their own, and despite their diverse catalog spanning decades and having worked with a bunch of different producers they still put their Beastie Boys feel on every beat.

I love hearing you say you can tell where there influences were coming from when some of the influences mentioned were all on current albums competing on the charts. These albums back in the day the one with Paul Revier that was exactly when DMC was doing there things and LL too.

    Love this joint, it's so loose and funky. And yeah, you're right - this wasnt a joke to them. They may be talking about their single Cookie Puss which was like a prank call set to music and became an underground hit. It then sort of set the stage for their drunk hooligan image for their first album on Def Jam. But they soon realised they didn't want to do that anymore and wanted to stretch themselves creatively. Their love of hip-hop is completely obvious, I get so sick of people saying "it was just a joke"

    Beastie Boys were formed out of members of experimental hardcore punk band the Young Aborigines in 1978, with Diamond as vocalist, Jeremy Shatan on bass guitar, guitarist John Berry and Kate Schellenbach on drums. When Shatan left in 1981, Yauch replaced him on bass and the band changed their name to Beastie Boys.

    They were NYC party kids. They were coming up on the heels of the punk insurgence, and were in the clubs when the real OGs started flowing up from the Bronx, from Brooklyn toward Uptown. They were there when hip hop started coming into its own, and mixed it up with the real players. They took the club sounds, the punk sensibilities and the MC/DJ format and took over the whole dang world. They hung with Run DMC on Def Jam before anyone even knew who they were. They helped launch LL Cool J.
    Real hip hop? You bet.

    They started out as a punk band but they are hip hop. Adrock discovered LL Cool J. They also gave Public Enemy their first tour as they opened up for the Beastie Boys. They also toured with Run DMC.

    Great song to react to! I didn't discover this song until the quarantine last spring, and I love a tribe called quest and q-tip also. Did you notice q-tips line at the end of the song, where he seemed to be free-styling. "ma bell, I got the ill communications" Not sure if you remember, before cell phones, Bell was biggest phone company around, people used to call it Ma Bell as slang, and ill Communications was the name of Beastie Boys 4th album! ✌️❤️️

    You mentioned punk rock and hip hop there's a lot of crossover. In the super early days punk bands dug hip hop and tried doing it themselves Blondie and grandmaster flash did a song. Tom Tom club and the waitresses also did songs. The clash did magnificent 7 which I think is the first time a top 10 album featured a rap song. And one of the earliest political rap songs as well that was in 81

    The thing I always loved about the Beastie Boys is that they respected all types of music! I saw them back in the 90’s at George Mason in VA and they even broke out some DC Go-Go!

    Q tip was hanging in the studio and freestyled his verses. They built the song around that.

    The BB loved both punk and hip hop. The Hall award they said came from growing up in NY. I've seen the live in 94 Lalapalooza. F*n great. They did plenty punk also. Crazy to see the center of the crowd collapse into mosh pit

  • @TIEdrummer
    @TIEdrummer 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    yeah man... We lost MCA to cancer a few years back... and beasties were punk rock... but in the 80s in New York, all the scenes were colliding... Beasties did play the drums, bass and guitar on their records (that wasn't sampled) but they were huge hip hop fans too.. ive been listening to hip hop since Whoodini, Grandmaster flash. and the Fat Boys... there was one station in Flint Mi, that played an hour of hip hop on Sundays in the middle of the night and that was it... Beasties actually introduced LL to Rick Ruben and he got his break... there's TONS of video of Uncle L saying he wouldn't have been in the game if it wasnt for the Beastie Boys..

    @CrudzMcKenzie 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Beasties did start out as more of a rock act. And even after they went hip-hop/rock fusion they still toured with a lot of rock festivals and stuff. They bridge the gap between punk and hip-hop. Anyone who says that they're just one or the other don't really know the Beasties.

    They have an Instrumental album "The In Sound from Way Out!", react or not, you gotta hear it.

    • @jde1784169
      @jde1784169 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      They actually have a couple of instrumental albums. I know of 2. “The In Sound From Way Out” was good because it’s the music and riffs we have all already heard. “Groove Holmes”, “Namaste”, “Bobo on the Corner”, to name a few, are tracks that have been on previous albums, but they weee curated and put in one place. “The Mix Up” is another instrumental Beastie Boy album. Personally, I only liked about half of it, but it was still good. I don’t recognize any of those tracks as being played on their albums before, Like “In Sound” did. I do think “I’m Sound from Way Out” is the better of the two.

      Beasties + Cypress + Rage = they took hip hop to new levels musically and created a new foundation to integrate it into new genres and expose it to a whole new multiracial and multigenerational following

    Another great thing about them is they barely swear in their raps! almost impossible to find now a days.
