Beasties are hella fun ✌🎵❤ Aren't we all glad we grew up with them?
Idk how I missed the car smh
DEFINITELY!!!
I really feel bad for anyone who never got to see them live. I only saw them once (in 1998 with Rancid opening) but it was TREMENDOUS!!!!! Like a doctah!
Word 🆙
@@MrVideo123 Don't feel bad. Just be happy you're discovering them now. And no matter what song you hear, you will not hear a bad one. It doesn't exist.
I don’t know if he can handle “Hey Ladies”
Hey Ladies is the greatest music video of all time. Filmed at the G-Spot; the mansion that Capitol Records rented for the Beastie Boys after they left Def Jam and moved to L.A. Pass The Mic was filmed at G-Son, the studio they built after they moved out of the G-Spot. Building G-Son is how they met Mario C. and Keyboard Money Mark. Those two had day jobs as carpenters.
I guess we'll just have to see....😉
I know right? Lol
Exactly, I don’t know if Leo/Mr. Video can handle *Heyy Ladies!* but I keep requesting it anyway. There’s a good chance he’ll freak his freak, get chills & maybe dance too? 😝👏🏻 🚬👏🏻
Get FUNKY...
Paul’s Boutique is an absolute masterpiece 😤👌🏽
truth!!
Agreed! I can still sing every word off that entire album. I must have listened to Paul's Boutique thousands of times back in the day. Lol I was obsessed.
It sure is
I still can't believe it came out in 89. That album was so far ahead of it's time.
no doubt
Btw, the album Paul’s Boutique was made before people understood sampling music. So it was before you had to pay for samples. Some of the songs goes 5 layers deep of samples at the same time lol.
It’s said that because the sampled so much famous music like the Beatles on Paul’s Boutique that if they made that album today it would be one of the most expensive records ever. But at the time it had never really been done :)
After the fact, there was a big lawsuit about Paul's Boutique that changed music licensing forever. That's what happens when you have unlicensed samples of The Beatles and Bob Dylan.
@@mmmoendo Yup. Def Jam (eventually) paid for and cleared most of the samples. Lots of people have tried to sue the Beastie Boys over this album but none of those suits had merit given the laws in place at the time of recording "Paul's Boutique". I think only Trouble Funk's lawsuit went anywhere but the Beasties eventually won that suit as well. De La Soul ran into similar issues around the same time but also won their lawsuit. Signed, an old guy.
It’s was produced by The Dust Brothers, Beastie Boys and Mario C.
@@scotthubbard1770 I had lunch with John King from the Dust Brothers about 6 months before Covid hit. Super nice guy. I probably spend 3/4 of our lunch asking about Paul’s Boutique lol.
3 Feet High and Rising came out 5 months earlier than Paul’s Boutique and that had just as many if not more samples
Beastie Boys is one of those few artists that justifiably gained massive respect from people in practically every genre. Pure talent
True that, I was into rock, metal and punk but still appreciated the beastie boys.
they started out as a punk band though.
They were all about having fun. Didn't take themselves or others too seriously.
“Hey Ladies” with the video. A must.
Next Beastie Boys song: *Heyy Ladies!!*
Just play this whole album from start to finish....
@@sammack1564 this is what I came to say. About 3 years ago Paul's Boutique was on repeat in my car for months. One of the most slept-on albums.
Yep. And then the rest of the album. 👏👏👏❤️
YEEEESSSS ‼❤‼
and Body movin' please
We see your style, it's different, it's different, it's brilliant...so is yours Mr Video 🎶🎵
It was so cool and exciting to be around when new Beastie Boys dropped.
Same!!!
Right?!?!?
Except just about no one got excited when this first dropped... except my friend Adi.
Thank you Adi, RIP bro... ✌️
@@sammack1564 I did. I had that in my hand as soon as the album was released.
Fresh
Ok, so I hate recommending songs because everyone does... but, for the Beasties, check out “Root Down”.
Great track
@@Evnevler How we gonna kick it?
Gonna kick it root down
One of my favorites for sure.
@Mark Hammond It's by far their shittiest album, and you know that's true because they've admitted to as much. They were kids and didn't know what they were doing, that album is complete dogshit compared to the rest of their discography.
Next Beastie Boys should be: Get It Together. Has Q-Tip from Tribe Called Quest on it.
He needs to do Left my wallet in El Segundo
Q-tip...something you put in your ear
YES, Get some Tribe in there for sure too. God that shit has groove. Thought I knew every lyric of Get it Together since '98. Finally read the lyrics in '16. embarrassing in places lol
@This Is The End I think that was '98, Tribe was in Albany, NY for Lincoln Parkfest (one of the best days of my life) in 1997. Feels like I remember Intergalactic being humongous around the time of Woodstock '99 putting it in '98. I'm remembering via "girlfriend at the time, car soundtrack" memory though lmao
IMMA KEEP SCREAMIN' THIS'UN TIL HE HEARS ME
Beastie boys played LL cool J’s tape to producers.... that’s how cool j got his break... beastie boys.
Cool I didn't know that...
@@kristyperry8044 Yep! It was Rick Rubin in his dorm room. Beasties also took Public Enemy on tour to open for them and really got them a lot of exposure as well.
But they were total brats on tour. LL Cool J did an interview calling them out on it bc it was making things hard on the other rappers and their persona. It's here on the tube.
RIP MCA🙏
"I got a peg leg at the end of my stump!.. Shake your rump!"
I want to say a little something that's long overdue
The disrespect to women has got to be through
To all the mothers and sisters and the wives and friends
I want to offer my love and respect to the end 💔
- "Sure Shot"
Whenever you say "Shake your rump" you gotta say it like they do!!! SHAKE YOUR RUMP AH!!!
That's not the Beasties saying that. It's a sample if the following "That's the Unity (Pt. 2 - Because It's Coming)” Afrika Bambaataa and James Brown (1984)
@@anthonyv6962 I bet you're a blast at parties, huh?
Best grocery store video ever!! JANES ADDICTION: "Been caught stealing." Please!!!!
ABSOLUTELY -gottaa do some JA
Wrong
Back in the 80's their shows were wild, literally city's were making lewdness laws because of them.
I actually got to see them in concert in 1987 in Nashville along with Run DMC, Public Enemy and I think Danny D. "Boom i got your Girlfriend" I'll never forget it!! Great memories!
There you are! Yay! Let’s get it- Please. And “No sleep til Brooklyn!” 🔥🌟✌️
Yeah, if you listen to this then you have to listen to "Hey Ladies", they just go so well together.
MCA is my favorite Beastie. RIP 🙏🏿
Same here 🥺
Why choose? It's like arguing about who the hottest supermodel is - there's no right or wrong answer.
I love love the Beastie boys!!!
It’s funny how depending on what you’re doing Sade can look pleased or slightly upset with you. Funny ass reaction!
No Sleep Till Brooklyn! Beastie Boys
You know it’s DOPE, when the DOPE is the DOPE.... now that’s DOPE!
This my Jam♦️♦️ 1989 I used to play this over and over and over♦️💥💥
The amount of samples on this album, and how they're layered and arranged is nothing short of being a work of art. Thank you Dust Brothers for the dopest old school style beats. You're forgiven for also producing MMMBop by Hanson.
I am grateful that so many young bucks are discovering this music. I wish nothing more, than for every fan of Hip Hop to understand the history. The Beasties were definitely a part of that ! Three crazy, stoner Jewish kids from Brooklyn. They always got respect and you’d be struggling to find one artist who helped found this genre say anything bad about the Beasties. They are legends and represent what was so incredible about Hip Hop. It wasn’t about color, race, gender, and religion. It was about that ether. Rhyme skills and dope beats are RHYME SKILLS and DOPE BEATS! Hip Hop was founded just as much by white kids, as black and Latino. There were dope BBoys, Taggers, DJs, and yes Emcees! You better learn. Much Love👊🏼👊🏼
Beastie Boys "no sleep till Brooklyn"!!!!!! Doooooooo it!!!!!
The album version has a Bong Hit sound drop in the middle of the song.
They had to cut out the bong hit or else the video would have been censored......kinda weird when they're talkin' about Whitpits just a couple seconds later.
The “It’s The Joint” sample in this song is from an early hip-hop song called “Thats The Joint” by The Funky 4+1. You should check it out. Old school masterpiece.
greatest ever
There are so many samples on this album I forgot where they all are, but is Cameo's "Shake Your Pants" in here somewhere? Maybe that first guitar riff sample? Either way this man needs to react to that video for that song. Where 70"s and 80's questionable wardrobe choices meld into a spectacle never before seen.
Drum Samples:
"Funky Snakefoot'' - Alphonse Mouzon (1973). Is the drum sample used for the intro. So it's the intro to both songs.
"Dancing Room Only" - Harvey Scales (1977). Drums appear at 3 seconds right at the beginning of the first verse.
“Super Mellow" - Paul Humphrey (1975). Drums appear at 25 seconds and can be heard throughout the song.
“Johnny the Fox Meets Jimmy the Weed” Thin Lizzy (1976) Drum fill sample at the end of the first verse at 37 seconds.
Instrumental Samples:
"Tell Me Something Good" - Ronnie Laws (1975). funky guitar riff sample that can be heard throughout the starts at 12 seconds
“Yo Yo" - Rose Royce from the Car Wash soundtrack (1976) Bass sample appears at 1:04 and can be heard throughout the song
"Born To Love You" - Rose Royce from the Car Wash soundtrack (1976). Multiple Element at 2:26 and through song
“6 O’Clock DJ" - Rose Royce, from the Car Wash soundtrack (1976)
The low growling synth that can be heard after each verse
"Could You Be Loved" - Bob Marley (1980). ‘Scratch’ heard under "the most packinest", "your belief, chief" and at the end of the song
"Good Times, Bad Times'' - Led Zeppelin (1969). Right after the vocal sample "Shake Your Rump-a" there is a drum break with synth. The first two run throughs, "Good Times, Bad Times'' appears right before the rap starts again, in the concluding drum fill
Vocal Samples:
“That's the Joint" - Funky 4+1 (1980).The vocal sample “It’s the Joint!” at the end of the first verse
"That's the Unity (Pt. 2 - Because It's Coming)” Afrika Bambaataa and James Brown (1984) The vocal sample “Shake your Rump-a” after the end of the second verse
“Rock the House” The B-Boys (1983) The vocal sample “Just like this” heard near the end of the DJ scratch break
"8th Wonder" - The Sugarhill Gang (1980). The vocal sample “Who-ha, got them all in check” in the third verse
"Jazzy Sensation" - Afrika Bambaataa & the Jazzy 5 (1981). Noise or vocal sample at 3:22 (I think)
"Get Off" - Foxy (1978). Interpolation (Replayed Sample) of Vocal /Lyrics at 21 seconds However The Disco Call was pretty common and could come from many other songs.
A Bong Hit - MCA said the bong hit comes from “our big blue bong”
Gunshot heard right after the Bong Rip. Note the bong hit and gun shot do not appear in the video version.
"The sound similar to a straw being pulled through a soft drink lid is an African percussion instrument known as a "cuica" (kwee-kuh). The cuica's sound is produced by pulling and pushing a wet cloth on a bamboo stick."
“Daddy Rich“ - Rose Royce, from the Car Wash soundtrack (1976)
“Holy Ghost“ - the Bar-Kays (1979)
“No Matter What Sign You Are“ - Diana Ross and The Supremes {1969)
Try-No Sleep Till Brooklyn- Beastie Boys💖💖
Yessss please!!
Yep
Featuring a ripping guitar solo by Kerry King of Slayer.
I'm waiting for this one too!
That's a awesome one. It has Kerry King of slayer doing the solo
Do “Shadrach”, that’s another great one.
Saturday is for bong rips and mr video clips!
Mr video would appreciate the real cut of this song. They taking bong hits 😂
The joint means it's the jam, it's the hot 🔥 shit
King's of hip hop for sure! 🇬🇧
If you're gonna keep going down the Beastie Boys rabbit hole, you gotta listen to "Girls"
Probably the worst song they ever recorded. And they agree.
Forty-five minutes into the new Beastie Boys documentary, Adam Horovitz-better known as Ad-Rock-sheepishly recites some lyrics from “Girls,” an unabashedly misogynistic anthem from his group’s first album, Licensed to Ill: “Girls to do the dishes / Girls to clean up my room / Girls to do my laundry.”
The crowd in front of him laughs, but Horovitz, now in his early 50s, looks more like a disapproving dad. He lets out a long, pained sigh and rolls his eyes, like an adult confronting some stupid thing they wrote in their high school yearbook. The song “was supposed to be this stupid and ironic joke,” Horovitz explains, “but understandably it wasn’t that funny.”
While you're at it, there's a short from Paul's Boutique called "All The Girls".
Have they actually recorded anything bad? Its meant to be childish and fun. I think that was the point.
Fun fact, they were a punk band before becoming rappers
Beastie Boys are straight in... no kissing lmao!! 🤣🤣
Fun Fact Mr. Video - Their name 'BEASTIE" is an acronym, standing for "Boys Entering Anarchistic States Towards Inner Excellence".
Fight for your right!!!!
The Beastie Boys did make most of their own videos, including this one. This video wasn't even played on MTV back in the day, and the song wasn't a hit or even a single. When their second album Paul's Boutique had poor initial sales, their label lost interest in promoting it, so the Beastie Boys tried making their own low-budget videos.
No one at the record label wanted anything to do with them when their third album was being created (since it was expected to flop), so the Beastie Boys just did everything themselves with no creative interference. When So Whatcha Want became a hit, they were able to continue working that way. Just going off on their own, and turning in the completed recording, album art, and music videos to the label when they were done. This was a pretty unheard of way for a major-label act to operate, which is one reason why the Beastie Boys stuff from the 90's all feels so unique.
I want you to see one where they play their instruments. Check out Gratitude. But also Hey Ladies cause you'll love it.
So happy you went down this rabbit hole! Fight for you right tòooooooo parrrrrty a must💋🇨🇦
Yes! Finally someone reacts to a Paul’s Boutique track!! 😃
Beastie Boys: The New Style
Damn son! You FINALLY realize how badass the Beastie Boys are! I love it!
Beastie Boys "Three MC'S and one DJ"
Excellent choice, you know we want more.
My man! This reminds me of the first time hearing this song when it came out. This was released almost 3 years after License to Ill and a lot of people, myself included, were worried that they would never be able to put out anything that could match License to Ill. This wasn't the first song on the record but it kind of was; they had like a really short intro kind of thing first and then this song hit and it was incredible. I remember just laughing hysterically when that bass drops in that first chorus and being so happy.
It was also cool because they gained so much success so quickly that that ruins a lot of people. they don't know how to deal with that kind of money and drugs and women. They were really rowdy there first a few years of touring then they straightened up pretty quickly and started taking their career really seriously.
You can always tell how much you're into a song by the amount of times you gotta relight your shit.
Love that 808 drumming
LOL, you fell down a Beastie Boys rabbit hole!! Cool to see you enjoying the music my old ass grew up on. Was cool seeing your first reaction when you found out they weren't what you expected lol
Representing Brooklyn it’s the joint watch No sleep till Brooklyn Big ups✌️✌️
Next up - Hey Ladies, Sure Shot, and Fight For Your Right. Love your reactions 🥰
You got to spark it on a beastie boy joint that was house party jam back in da day
Yeah, you should probably just write down a list of Beastie songs, close your eyes, just point down to the page... and react to whatever song your finger landed on. You're probably gonna like it, no matter which one it is.
If you already reacted to Fight For Your Right (To Party)...I must have missed it. If you haven't... jump on it!
Do "Gratitude" next, and you'll get to see them play instruments in their band configuration they started using on the rock & funk stuff starting in '91. It must have blown the minds of longtime fans who didn't know they could play instruments too.
Starting with "Check Your Head," they sounded like hiphop meets the Meters meets Santana.
Put some respect on their name!! Love it, Leo!
Do more Paul's Boutique material! Hey Ladies! Looking Down The Barrel Of a Gun! Car Thief!
NO SLEEP TIL BROOKLYN - Beastie Boys
Keep rocking with them Beastie Boys Mr Video✌❤❤
5:10 Leo, how the hell did you mis the cat spinning around on the record player not once but twice!! 🤣🐾🐈
I felt the same way- 😅 look at the screen!!😄
He was busy smokin lol
@@kimberlinibambini1988 🤣🐾🐈
Omg lol
SAME reaction
"dude. look. oh it its gone. OH ITS BACK! Shit."
Got this blasting while I cook....can't go wrong with Beastie boys!
Third Base. Pop goes the weasel.🔥🔥🔥
They are talking shit about Vanilla Ice.😂😂😂
Do both. I forgot about the beef they had with the Beastie Boys.
They make it look like they were just playing, but they worked hard on everything they were doing, they were committed to the job, and they were critical of their own work so they could get better. While they were young and full of energy, they also believed they better not waste an opportunity.
Yeah, when I was a kid I really thought they just kinda laid it down and went on their way but looking at it now you realize they worked really hard on their craft
Fuck Yeah! Totally forgot about this banger! 🤘🤘🤘♥️
I also recently requested Third Base “Pop goes the Weasel.” Asking again- Please react to it with official video Mr. V- They had beef with Vanilla Ice back in the day- you’ll definitely get a kick out of it! Great song- The entire album is 🔥!
agreed GREAT song, completely forgot about it...thanks for the reminder!
That's a great request! I loved 3rd Bass and both Pete and Serch's solo efforts.
Pretty sure they had beef with the Beasties too and the Boys responded with So Watcha Want. They must like beefing with anyone 😂
The record this is from ("Paul's Boutique") is almost 100% samples. Except for the vocals, virtually every sound on that record was sourced from somewhere else. And this was 1989!!! All analogue...no digital editing interface to work with....no ProTools... It's a sound engineering milestone. No one had heard anything like it at the time. The Beasties aren't the greatest rap group but they really earned their keep....especially with those first 4 records. Other tunes from "Paul's Boutique" to check out: "Hey Ladies", "Egg Man", and "Sound Of Science"
But also... we all waiting on... fight! For your right! To partyyyyyyy!
House parties would GO CRAZY! 🤪 When this song came on.
In a Vibe interview of all three Beastie Boys, Chuck D of Public Enemy was quoted as saying that the "dirty secret" among the black hip-hop community at the time of release was that "Paul's Boutique had the best beats."
"WOOHA Gotcha' all in check" is a sample from The Sugar Hill Gang's 8th Wonder. Busta' Rhymes got sued for using it illegally in his song... that lawsuit took place in 2012 I believe.
Oh... and Ween.
You have to do Hey Ladies next!!!
Those transitions in this one straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 grimy with a capital G-rimy
Sure Shot, Too Many Rappers, Gratitude, Sabotage...anything, you'll love it all.
keep the beasties comin! so much to see and its all different
Thank you sir that was a lot of fun. Don't see a lot of people react to this song and that's such a shame because in my humble opinion this song is underrated and a banger at that. Glad you enjoyed it!
That song contains the following samples:
"Funky Snakefoot" by Alphonse Mouzon
"Super Mellow" by Louis Bellson, Shelly Manne, Willie Bobo and Paul Humphrey
"Tell Me Something Good" by Ronnie Laws
"6 O'Clock DJ (Let's Rock)",
"Born to Love You", and "Yo Yo" by Rose Royce
"Jazzy Sensation" by Afrika Bambaataa and The Jazzy 5
"Dancing Room Only" by Harvey Scales
"Get Off" by Foxy
"That's the Joint" by Funky 4 + 1
"8th Wonder" by Sugarhill Gang
"Unity (Pt. 2 - Because It's Coming)" by Afrika Bambaataa and James Brown
"Rock the House" by The B-Boys
GD, how did I miss this righteous Beastie joint back in the day? Mr. Video digs up the jamz you never knew you needed.
Too good.
man, you got to see them do "Root Down"
So how we gonna kick it?
"I should be a part of this. I'd fit right in".
Yes Leo...you would fit right in ANYWHERE.
their video style removed every other frame played at half speed. It appears to be in slow motion but remains in beat and on point. Really is a brilliant process, simple and effective.
Such a fat groove,luv the stuff that makes my speakers fuzz out even at low volume...aka some of their videos are directed by their friends like spike jonze
*is your name Michael Diamond? Naw man it's Clarence!!!*
Paul’s Boutique is my fave album, thank you for reacting to this classic 😍🎶
Omg Y'all Leo is up to 149K!!! My Birthday wishes are coming true! My wish was seeing Leo hit 150K by 1/14!!!
You've got to do "hey ladies"!!!!--
Your facial expressions kill me! 😂 great reaction buddy! Love your channel keep it up buddy!
Most of the music videos were directed by the great Spike Jonze or by Nathaniel Hornblower. Nathaniel Hornblower is MCA's "cousin from Switzerland."
Thats what I’m talking about, you gotta listen to the art that is Paul’s Boutique from start to finish.
Beastie suggestions: Sure Shot, Get it Together (Feat. Q-Tip) or Too Many Rappers (Feat. NAS)
I wish the Nasal Squad (B-Real, Q-Tip, and Ad Rock) would have made their album but it never happened.
Man I’m surprised that nobody has requested for you to React to Beastie Boys- (You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party) that’s like one of their all time hits. Come on now. How can you’ll forget that one. But when your done with that one check out MAKE SOME NOISE right after cuz that video is what they do after the party lol and also NO SLEEP TILL BROOKLYN
Where you been? The video you're speaking of is called fight for you right revisited. It shows them what the would have been like if they continued act like clowns. As for your request.
Mike D commented that, "The only thing that upsets me is that we might have reinforced certain values of some people in our audience when our own values were actually totally different. There were tons of guys singing along to 'Fight for Your Right' who were oblivious to the fact it was a total goof on them." "Fight for Your Right (to Party)" could have easily defined the group, but they had the good sense to disown it as a novelty and move forward in a more mature (but still mischievous) direction. They stopped performing the song when they finished touring in 1987. Considering the group disowned this song, it's not surprising it wasn't taken seriously in the rap community. Any outrage over appropriation was tempered by the fact that Beastie Boys were signed to Def Jam Records, the label co-owned by Rick Rubin and Russell Simmons that was also home to LL Cool J and a number of up-and-coming rap acts.

asked twice
"Jimmy James", "Triple Trouble", "The New Style", "Professor Booty", "The Negotiation Limerick File" & "Skills to Pay the Bills" are all bangers!
Hey handsome! Have a golden day!
React to their induction into the hall of fame
Cool idea!! I loved LL Cool J's part of the speech!!
@@jennhurl and Chuck D of public enemy
React to the Beastie Boys playing "Shadrach" on Soul Train, which also feature Mike D embarrassing himself in front of Don Cornelius during the interview.
Hey see if you can react to gratitude you get to see a different side of the beastie boys playing their own instruments. Good looking out
Pretty sure the tradition of booty shaking songs goes back at least all the way to funk and disco in the '70s (probably even before that, only less frequently and famously), and rap just kept it going.
The line "shake your rump-ah" in this song was sampled from "Unity" by Afrika Bambaataa & James Brown.
"It's the joint!" (which is probably not referring to weed, by the way, but rather the song) was sampled from "That's the Joint" by Funky 4+1.
This song, and this album as a whole, is absolutely littered with creatively combined samples. It could not have been made today because of how litigious record companies have gotten about that sort of thing, but it's a beautiful collage of borrowed sounds arranged into a unique experience.
That distorted base in like proto-DnB... I'll bet Dieselboy loved these guys.
Album was produced by The Dust Brothers, so... ;)
