I know I'm in the minority here but I find Hello Nasty to be the most enjoyable album.
Paul's Boutique I reject to this day, no matter how revered it is, it never settled well with me.
I agree with you on the Hello Nasty sentiment. It's my favorite record of theirs for a few different reasons. It just hit me in that key time in your musical taste development, I suppose. I'd put Ill Communication next.
But Paul's Boutique is awesome in its own really special way. I don't think a record like that will ever by made again. There are so many quotable moments. And that's the thing about the Beastie Boys: they always had this knack for creating rhymes that were worth remembering. Most artists can't do that. Sometimes simple is better. |

I LOVED Check Your Head. Watcha Want is still one of my favorite songs.
Same here. But my favorite on there was Pass The Mic. That song imo sounds like nothing else in hiphop. And MCA starts it off with one of his best lines, I think.
I also loved him in Stand Together and the 3rd Bass diss in Prof Booty always seemed really, really bad ass to me. |

Yeah, most Beastie songs are all about the interplay and the group working together as a team that it's hard for members to have standout moments, but MCA definitely stole the show on Professor Booty. |

licensed to ill was 1 of my 1st 2 tapes. the other was straight outta compton. my brother and i each had shitty little tape players. one could record, but it wasn't a side-by-side. so there we were, like 10 years old, in my room. 2 shitty tape players facing each other. one playing, the other recording. ON THE LOWEST VOLUME so mom wouldn't hear the content. i remember you could hear us throughout the recordings laughing and giggling at the profanity and downright awesomeness.
absolutely loved them ever since. even when i re-found hip hop and had a different ear, they always were part of me. i agree with someone else in saying they were always cool. no lapse, no giving in, no compromising what they wanted to do. hugest amount of respect
mca seems to have been the biggest doer outside of albums, which always had my respect hedge towards him

Replace brother with my friend down the street and this story is basically exactly how i got into hip-hop. He swiped NWA and Public Enemy tapes from his brother and we'd listen to them real late when we slept over one another's house. It was great. I couldn't believe what i was hearing. These guys hated the cops? i didn't understand. The cops were who you called when you got into trouble. |

Since when was "respect" synonymous with "spitting on the grave?" |

Is Coldplay not down enough to show respect for an artist they enjoyed? |
