Funny thing is, when this came out back in 98-99, it was considered a nice homage and throwback to early rap... The line kick off your shoes and relax your socks, it's a bar from Busy Bee Starsky when he battled Kool Moe Dee at the 1981 Harlem world championships
Ad Rock literally let LL Cool J and Rick Ruben borrow his 808 that he bought, without that piece of equipment none of them let alone LL has anything. That piece of technology changed the rap and music world. Facts.
@@computerstuff8352 nah, even simple flows today are more complex and better constructed than this. that's not to take away from the beastie boys. they were a step in the evolutionary tree, but it has grown since then. it still sounds good today because it's basically what modern hip hop is built on, lol. it wouldn't sound nearly as good if it were released fresh today.
Seconded. I'd love to hear his thoughts on that one. The live is great, but I'm always bummed people miss out on "goddamn, that DJ made my day" with the album version.
I’m not sure evolved is correct. Lyrically and flow between the three was mint. Revolved today at best and that’s not a dig at modern hip hop. Just respect to Beastie Boys.
I have to admit that i was never much of a beastie boys fan, but i always like this song. I think the beat really makes the song great. What i see a lot of people miss with this song is that each verse has the same ending ryhme. 1st verse has the "ile" end ryhme, 2nd verse has the "een/eam" and the 3rd verse has the "ock/op" rhyme. Kind of original for its time.
This shit used to THUMP back in the day. Back when you had to have a couple of 12's in your trunk with that flip down head unit. Memories man, memories...
Man my alpine 12s running off a thousand watts used to bang the shit out of this song made it so much better as long as the bass doesn't drown out everything else of course lol
That is My favorite album of all time. It is flawless and there is no filler. 5 PCD and WGA are often whined about but both are palate cleanser for Barrel and Shadrach. I LOVE Boutique.
Underrated? By who? A million articles were written about it and how it not only catapulted rap to the mainstream but changed rap forever. Its the Pet Sounds of rap. No one, and I mean no one, underrated Paul’s Boutique.
One of my fav songs of all time the beat and the line " i like my sugar with coffee and cream" is on point. i have been saying that line for years in coffee shops. The best line in any song hands down is " when I see you, your guaranteed to be in ICU." If you don't know where it is from
I think it'll act like a pendulum, like many things. People get lazy, then realize that's no fun artistically, or as a listener. Then we get waves of people listening Beasties and Nas again 👌
This beat is so insane and the Beastie Boys murdered it. There's a reason not many rappers have flowed over this beat. You're gonna have to SPAZ on a freestyle to this to even come close to justifying rapping over the instrumental. Edit: I love how you barely paused and enjoyed this. Yes! Lol.
It's time to review Paul's Boutique in its entirety. Before LA truly broke out on the hip hop scene NYC was where it was at and the Beasties were an important ingredient in the multicultural stew.
Beastie Boys hits that vein where you don't want to pause the music even while reviewing and reacting to it. It rewires your brain, gets your head. Hope you do Sabotage!
I remember wearing out my CASSETTE copy of Licensed to Ill, I have been a fan of these guys since the beginning, I like when people like what I like...
This song's from way back in my day. I was disappointed to not see the MTV video, and get the lyrics video instead. I was WRONG! I forgot half of those bars or more. :P Keep up the great work man! Thank you.
This song is freaking awesome! I love that voice effect, it puts a certain stank face on you every time. Not to mention that the music video is awesome too!
😊I remember how back in the day my 2nd oldest brother would blast this along with some other tunes while driving on the back roads. 😎Was 7 at the time, loved the reverberating beats as my big bro zoomed back to the house.
Man, I was blown away when I first saw its Video released back in MTV! The beat went hard and withstood the test of time! Old School Hip Hop always FTW!
Ahh man, without the music video on this you are missing SOOOOOO much haha. Their videos are like half of the charm, and people seem to be able to react to them pretty well.
That's a PASS in mile high letters. Miss them so much. Classic. Check out Fight for your Right to Party (Revisited) video, the 29min version, probably the best music video of all time. MCA's last music video that he directed.
YES!! I was just talking about the old Beastie Boys videos!! So cinematic and cool! Too bad we can’t watch all the good videos! Love their vibes too! Takes me back to middle school!❤️🔥
I cannot believe that anyone who has an interest in hip hop hasn't heard every Beastie Boys or listened to all their music. This shouldn't even be in trash or pass. Does no one know their history!!!!
Hey brother,I'm overwhelmingly impressed with the amount of ya'll younger cats discovering the Beasties music. Before Eminem there was the Beasties. They're hip hop legends and respected by their contemporaries of the 80s Pioneers in rap. I have a smile on face seeing talk about how dope the beat is and you bobbin your head feeling that shit. Shout out to you bro for enjoying the old Skool era of hip hop. 🙏✌❤😁🙏
Saw them live 4 times I think. Philly 1998 Tribe opened for the Beastie Boys. One of the best concerts I’ve been too, and I’ve seen well over 200 concerts in arenas
I would beg to differ on the analysis that rap has evolved. I think it has devolved. Not much talent, lots of sampling, no originality, and mostly one dimensional with the focus on denigrating women, material possessions, profanity, raging, and mumble rap. The old school rappers of the 80s an 90s set the standard, which is why it has stood the test of time. You can't duplicate the creators,. As a guy of a certain age, I always laugh when I see a Millennial or Gen Z person realize that an "artist" stole part of their song from someone else from decades past. The look of surprise is priceless! The Beastie Boys are one of those "Creators" along with Run DMC, LL Cool J, Sugar Hill Gang, Big Daddy Kane, Kool Moe Dee, etc.....
Someone hasnt listened to kendrick, jcole, Joey Badass, Smino, J.I.D, aesop rock, etc. Rap has definitely evolved, but if the only place you hear music is the radio, you've fully missed out on everything rap has improved upon and only hear the pop shit. Do better
@@CG68810 bro tell me one aesop rock song that proves you right, tell me one j cole song that proves you right, or any of the rappers I listed tbh. You just sound like a boomer who thinks that their generation was the best lol
@@joeycallan5795 Definitely not a "Boomer". I am a Gen X'er....However it is comical the obsession Millennials in particular have with "Boomers".

I literally only know this song because in my high school's drumline, we play this as one of our cadences It's one of everyone's favorites and it always gets people hype
Love the Beastie Boys, and this song, although not my favorite by them, holds a special place. June 1998, packing up our tent, leavingBosnia, going home after 9 months. This song comes on armed forces radio. Beastie boys hadn’t put out an album for years, and this was brand new. Everyone stopped what they were doing and listened. Yeah, Beastie Boys are legends. RIP MCA!
I grew up on Beastie Boys. Too me their best tracks are the ones where it doesn't seem like there is a plan, it's just them getting creative and having fun with the music. Intergalactic is one, No Sleep til Brooklyn, Paul Revere, So Watcha Want, etc.
I just love how everyone's reaction to this is the same. 2 seconds in, confused looked. 5 seconds in "stink face". 10 seconds in, head bopping till the song in over
There were 4 samples in the song: ‘Intergalactic’ by the ‘Beastie Boys.’ (1998) -------------------------- 1. ‘Prelude in C# Minor‘ - Les Baxter (1968) (Which is the Organ sounding Moog Machine used throughout the song right when the first verse comes into play at 1:38) -------------------------- 2. ‘Love Is Blue (L'Amour Est Bleu)’ - The Jazz Crusaders (1968) (Which is the jazzy bass riff used at the bridge of the song at 3:55) --------------------------- 3. ‘Hang on in There‘ - The Stovall Sisters (1971) (Which are the vocals saying the line: ‘Do It!’ During the bridge of the song at (3:55) and right before the song ends (4:49) ---------------------------- 4. ‘The New Style’ - Beastie Boys (1986) (Which is the line: ‘mmmm...DROP?!‘ at 3:52)

Yo 4th
You should look into their history. Beastie Boys were pioneers. Not just “old rap.” Many legendary artists credit them as inspirations.
Tracks probably older than him
Pioneers? C'mon man. I love beastie boys. But they just slightly added a rock'ish background sound to the same exact style that they themselves said influenced them... Run DMC, Kurtis Blow, Schooly D, Kool Moe Dee, Biz Markie, and the Fat boys. Wasn't that much pioneering going on.
Yeppers
@@SPFW21 i honestly don't think I've heard anyone into hip hop say the Beastie's weren't pioneers. In addition to a bunch of things to list Paul's boutique was literally the first album, of any genre, made up entirely of samples....and we all know influential that was and is to this day
Even now they are among the best. Some of the best beats and mixes, and vocal dance of the 3 members and tones.
One of the most fun groups ever! They kept that old school rhyming style until the very end, when MCA died in 2012. Their entire career is, among many other things, a love letter to old school hip hop. #RIPMCA

@@tobymj0781 so what
Funny thing is, when this came out back in 98-99, it was considered a nice homage and throwback to early rap... The line kick off your shoes and relax your socks, it's a bar from Busy Bee Starsky when he battled Kool Moe Dee at the 1981 Harlem world championships
This was on their 5th album, the fuck are you talking about?
@@chand911 I think you might have misread something
@@chand911 Their 5th album came out in 98, and the line was an homage to an early 80s historic rap battle in NYC
Got an “A” for Moe Dee for sticking to themes
Beastie Boys were one of the groups that inspired Eminem, they are also credited with helping LL Cool J get his record deal with Def Jam Records
Ad Rock literally let LL Cool J and Rick Ruben borrow his 808 that he bought, without that piece of equipment none of them let alone LL has anything. That piece of technology changed the rap and music world. Facts.
🤘🤘🤘 glad to see a new generation listening to them! Been a fan since the 80s...
How far we've come? This one damn near a quarter century old and it's WAY better than anything on the radio now
ikr I was like evolved??? bud right now rap is DEvolving.
@@computerstuff8352 nah, even simple flows today are more complex and better constructed than this. that's not to take away from the beastie boys. they were a step in the evolutionary tree, but it has grown since then. it still sounds good today because it's basically what modern hip hop is built on, lol. it wouldn't sound nearly as good if it were released fresh today.

The Beastie Boys rocked hard back in the day. Paul's Boutique is tuff
You know your sh1t ;)
And "Check Your Head"
Beastie Boys rocked til they day they couldn't anymore. Listen to "Make Some Noise". Just as an example
Still rocks hard. Still better then the trash that's out there now.
Yessir. So many samples, so much greatness
*Beastie Boys - "Three MC's and One DJ" if you haven't checked it out yet...*
Seconded. I'd love to hear his thoughts on that one. The live is great, but I'm always bummed people miss out on "goddamn, that DJ made my day" with the album version.
So What'cha Want for sure
Hello Nasty is a masterpiece
Was gonna recommend the same
My thing is who dose not know who the beastie boys is
You're smiling all the way through this, I can't imagine how big that smile would've been if you'd watched the regular video!
Fuck yeah...
I had to scroll way too far down for a comment about the video. Its half the performance missing!
The Beastie Boys were always known for their clever lyrics and unique sound.
God rest "MCA's" soul!
This is one of my favorite Beastie jams..it hits at the party lol.
How he hasn't listened to Beastie Boys, Get it Together featuring q tip or Paul Revere is beyond me ... so 🔥🔥
Most of these rectors have they just say they don’t
The Beasties!! Love this reaction. These dudes were pioneers and changed their style a lot over the years. Plus, their concerts were crazy asf!
Can’t b as crazy as Travis Scott’s

Let’s here sure shot at least
3MCs and 1 DJ is the best
No please no
Stop torturing this man
I’m not sure evolved is correct. Lyrically and flow between the three was mint. Revolved today at best and that’s not a dig at modern hip hop. Just respect to Beastie Boys.
True
Even Eminem says their combined flow of many voices is among goats.
@@cryptoholica72 factss
no, it evolved. just because its not what we would like it to be doesnt mean its not evolution, its still growth and change.
yeah, these flows were built upon and expanded. these are super simple because rap was still in it's infancy. this style wouldn't fly today.
I have to admit that i was never much of a beastie boys fan, but i always like this song. I think the beat really makes the song great.

Go back and try listening to them now that you have a better understanding, maybe you might come across a few you will like.

It's also interesting to see how, in many ways, rap and hip hop has de-evolved since then.
This is what was going to post. Seemed like a downhill slide in many respects.
This 💯
I think it'll act like a pendulum, like many things. People get lazy, then realize that's no fun artistically, or as a listener. Then we get waves of people listening Beasties and Nas again 👌
Sadly
Came here to say this.
*If my rap’s soup, my beats is stock.*
…the most undersold, under-appreciated line in the song.
This beat is so insane and the Beastie Boys murdered it. There's a reason not many rappers have flowed over this beat. You're gonna have to SPAZ on a freestyle to this to even come close to justifying rapping over the instrumental.
Edit: I love how you barely paused and enjoyed this. Yes! Lol.
It's time to review Paul's Boutique in its entirety. Before LA truly broke out on the hip hop scene NYC was where it was at and the Beasties were an important ingredient in the multicultural stew.
Loved the fact that when they say "Droooop" and then The Phracyde sampled it and it's one of their amazing songs.
Beastie Boys are slept on cause most of their stuff was made in the late 80s-mid 90s. It's all fire, bro.
I STRONGLY recommend this album to be listened in a car with subwoofers 😁 ….seriously, it’s amazing with subwoofers, lol.
Beastie Boys hits that vein where you don't want to pause the music even while reviewing and reacting to it. It rewires your brain, gets your head. Hope you do Sabotage!
Sabotage especially with the video!
Sabotage is hard AF
Love how you’re open to all music genres (rap, drill, hip hop, rock, metal etc) big respect
Pharcyde sampled the mmmm Drop! for the chorus of Drop on Labcabincalifornia. Beastie boys may have made a cameo in the video.
Thank you for featuring them today. ❤️
I've watched your reaction like 5x since I ran over it...your reaction = super spot on! Loved it my man!
Nothing like the Beastie Boys! Everything by them is classic!

My 1 year old son loves this song, whenever he is a bit down, play this and he goes crazy 😂
An Absolute Classic!! 💯
They were real song writers and pioneers. Amazing.
Damn near first rap. These are the shoulders that giants stood upon.
How can this be the first time you've heard this song? lol that's incredible.
makes us gen-xsers feel old lol
I've liked Beastie Boys for ages but as I get older I _truly_ start to understand how much they gave to us. They were masters of their craft. 😀
Legend! Whenever Intergalactic song ends, I always listen to Chemical Brothers 'Block Rockin Beats'. They both somehow drop beats hard af.
One of the GREATEST rap songs off all time, bangs to this day, and im black, from the hood, and a 80s baby say that if it matters 💯😎
Beastie Boys are legends. The hip hop GOATS.
This song's from way back in my day. I was disappointed to not see the MTV video, and get the lyrics video instead. I was WRONG! I forgot half of those bars or more. :P
Keep up the great work man! Thank you.
Hell yeah dude 🤘
Love how you're exploring different genre of rap
This song is freaking awesome! I love that voice effect, it puts a certain stank face on you every time. Not to mention that the music video is awesome too!

One of my absolute all time favorite groups, period. Soooo many amazing songs! Revolutionists
Yooo, that hair is hella fresh bruh. Love the reactions my g
There is ONE group that has songs on every playlist I make, from chill vibes to alt rock, and that's The Beastie Boys
You say evolution of rap, I say devolution.
Man, I was blown away when I first saw its Video released back in MTV! The beat went hard and withstood the test of time! Old School Hip Hop always FTW!
Ahh man, without the music video on this you are missing SOOOOOO much haha. Their videos are like half of the charm, and people seem to be able to react to them pretty well.
Been lookin for beastie reactions. Finally someone I actually enjoy watching reacting to a song I love. Blessed 🙏
Man, this brings me back to happiness. Fun as hell
Man beastie boyz are legends and always will be one of my favorite groups of all time
Pass i saw bestie boys and i clicked instantly

"I'll stir fry you in my wok" could be one of my favorite lines from any song ever.
More like the de evaluation of rap/hip hop since the early 2000’s
3 MC’s and 1 DJ … official video … get some! Love the content!
Gotta react to This is War featuring Gawne, Atlas and Tech N9ne 🔥🔥
Beastie boys had some crazy beats and flows!!
Bro yo intro song literally says "cause I was born in the 80's" so I refuse to believe you haven't heard this song.
These guys were the precursor to rap from today... They always inject a lil nonsense n fun in their lyrics.. Love them, they're on the Rage playlist
Beastie Boys didn't change their sound too much from the 80's to the 2000's+
Saw them live 4 times I think. Philly 1998 Tribe opened for the Beastie Boys. One of the best concerts I’ve been too, and I’ve seen well over 200 concerts in arenas
How you gonna be a rapper and not have heard Beastie Boys?

Beastie Boys is one of the best mix between Punk and Rap. These guys are were so fucking creative when the band was still on…
When I was in Niagara Falls a few weeks ago I saw a license plate that said “MMM DROP”.
Best custom plate I’ve seen in a while
i would have never thought in a million years id hear you react to this song
