My favorite thing about this past year was when NYC made the corner of Ludlow and Rivington streets "Beastie Boys Corner". It is where the album cover photo for Paul's boutique was taken. There is a street sign and mural there now.
One of the most INCREDIBLE entrances onstage of a live show you'll ever see. There's another video on TH-cam where it shows them doing something similar at the VH1 Hip Hop Honors show. They ride up on bikes, start rappin' outside all the way to the stage.

They are the crazy antics...pretty incredible, as well. They have been offering their magic for so many years. It is refreshing to see them as they are overall fantastic! Thank you for sharing!
MCA had probably a top ten Rap Voice of all time, it drew you in even with two other good unique voices in the group. Maybe the best white rap voice of all time. At least IMO. Not flow or skills, just vocal quality.
I saw them live in 99-2000 in SLC - - A Tribe Called Quest opened up from them - an amazing show! Q-Tip came on the stage, during the encore section, and closed it with "Come Together" and "Sabotage" -- where they just smashed all of their equipment and left the stage! RIP MCA!
The best. Lots of Word on the streets that it was the best concert you could ever go to because you got a little bit everything. And then everything was always done, right
Back in the day, there there was an animal planet-like show sponsored by mutual of Omaha insurance company. The host was Lorne Greene and I think it was him riding one of those boats with the propeller in the FL everglades. I think they're called airboats. At 1:40.
No unnecessary dazzle just dope lyrics and slick, synchronized delivery. Smooth as silk. Btw, great review, as always. Check out “An Open Letter to NYC” , post 9/11. I think you’ll dig it!
If you ask anyone working in TV production (especially around that time) this was an unheard of concept/thing to pull off. This was when cameras still had cables too (not that they don't now, we just have other filming options) you can see a shadow early on of a guy who was collecting it for the cameraman. You'll also notice the cable guy start to lag and they have to step over it when they get closer to the studio lol. Still though, gotta be a record for longest TV camera cable ever.
I’m sure you’ve gotten a ton of requests for the song B-Boy Bouillabaisse. I would love to see you review it with a slight spin. You see, I’ve seen this song reacted to by tons of different people, but they all seem to miss a certain aspect. Context. It’s a thing that is generally missed in the entire BB catalogue. A sense of place and time. In this case, it’s young rowdy men in 1980’s NYC. While I would insist you take the song as a whole; Bouillonabaisse is often broken down into 9 different tracks. The third track being Stop That Train. While you hear this track, listen to the lyrics and appreciate the style. But more importantly, consider the context. This is a time capsule of NYC. It’s a love song to the sketchy experience of riding the subway in NY during the 80’s. It was a different experience then compared to now. The city really cleaned itself up in the 90’s after the crack epidemic of the 80’s. Cleaning up the subway experience was a major part of that change. Some of the experience (for better or worse) is lost to history. It wasn’t all bad, just much more visceral. This song captures that feeling in a couple of minutes of bars. But the song also highlights something which has never changed about the subway. Then and now. It’s where the people blend. Rich, poor. Working man or criminal. The subway is just how you get around. Every train car is full of blended people from different backgrounds with different experiences. I love that this track laser focuses on that. Enjoy the lyrics, but also feel the sense of place and time.
Strait take.....the sound engineers set up antennas every 50 or so feet to bounce it back to the studio......no lip syncing......one take and as always, The Beastie Boys nail it down with precision .

I miss this type of Hip Hop. Beasties forever
These are legit best friends. Legit. This what you get when you swallow your ego and stick with your friends.

David Letterman was very famous for bringing on really great acts. He absolutely loved the Beastie Boys.
Letterman ❤ always the newest and best acts.
Their freestyle figure-8 they perform while on stage is mesmerizing. Truly underappreciated Hip-Hop Gods masquerading as punk/pop clowns.

I enjoy any bands that bring people together.
They would ad-lib and change some words to prove they weren’t lip syncing

My band my Boys legit and real no one was like them ,RIP MCA
Wish this video got more pub…this was so incredible to pull off in one take…classic BB👍🎤
Yooooo, this is fire. So dope. Ive never seen this performance
They are the crazy antics...pretty incredible, as well. They have been offering their magic for so many years. It is refreshing to see them as they are overall fantastic! Thank you for sharing!

😊
The Beasties turned up my high-school years 🤘 Forever love 👊
Root Down video shows the massive influence that the early NY hip hop culture had on them
You’d love their video for “Root Down”. So much vibe.
🎉 How Beastie of you! Class of '86!
Well oiled spontaneous machine. Masters of their craft ❤️
I saw them live in 99-2000 in SLC - - A Tribe Called Quest opened up from them - an amazing show! Q-Tip came on the stage, during the encore section, and closed it with "Come Together" and "Sabotage" -- where they just smashed all of their equipment and left the stage! RIP MCA!
Beastie Boys for life!!!🙌🤘💜
Always happy to see you pop up solid reactions. Thank you.
🙏🏾💙 appreciate ya
Never saw this one...great pick!
Beastie Boys forever ✌️
Wil recommend, Beastie boys Root down, a love letter to hip hop.
Yes!
The Beasties are from the old school. They learned from the greats and applied it perfectly..and then some..
They didn’t learn from the greats. They were one of the greats.
The best. Lots of Word on the streets that it was the best concert you could ever go to because you got a little bit everything. And then everything was always done, right
The BB’s could pull off stuff like this like it was nothing.
Get it together!!!!
Imagine growing up with them in the 80's
The best of the best, NYC flyiest white bois
Check out the Scotland live, or the Amsterdam Live shows.
Best live artists, EVER!
RIP MCA Adam Yauch
3mcs & 1dj piped in live as their lerfomance for an Mtv music awards. 1 dj, 1 record 1 take, no beat machine. Enjoy
