    Nobody ever beefed with the Beastie Boys - they have always been incredibly well respected by other rappers. They're not "posers" and never tried to be anything they weren't. They were original, cool dudes, and most importantly their beats were insane. Everyone loved them, fellow rappers included.

    Beastie Boys are hip-hop legends. They are real MCs, not "rappers". There is a distinct difference. There are a lot of "rappers' these days doing a lot of talking, but not really saying much. The Beastie Boys are simply exceptionally talented musicians that deserve every bit of the praise they receive

    It's important to understand the tradition The Beastie Boys were building on. In the 1970s, an MC (Master of Ceremonies) was a person in a club or large party with a microphone that would hype up the crowd and keep them entertained as the DJ spun popular dance records. (Funk, soul and disco records with repetitive beats.) Eventually, the DJs started to use their multiple turntables to mix, layer, and repeat sections of beats, and the MC became more creative and would talk/rap over the music. They'd hype themselves, the club, the neighborhood, tell stories, and also diss other MCs at other clubs. The best MCs started to perform increasingly complex and clever raps over increasingly imaginative beats created by the DJs. Eventually the MC/DJ performances became a main attraction. Cassette tapes and sampling devices (including drum machines) in the 1980s pushed it forward into its own musical form of expression outside of the dance clubs, and it was part of hip hop culture right alongside the B-boys and breakdancing. At first, the lyrical subject matter stayed in the tradition of the MC. It didn't take long for people to try rapping as a form of expression about any topic. It expanded more and more into sex, gangs, and police brutality (e.g., NWA, 2 Live Crew, Wu Tang Clan, Public Enemy, etc.) The Beastie Boys stuck with and mastered the MC style of performance and rapping, but over time they were pushing musical boundaries by writing their own backing tracks, using fewer samples, and playing their own instruments.

    In the old days, the 80's and earlier, hip-hop wasn't "About" being 'street' as in "showing off how badass you are with guns, drugs, money, sex", it was art FROM the street, literally birthed by communities of people, neighborhoods. But also, it was about PARTIES. People getting together on the block, or at a house party, or in a parking lot, or camping, we had no internet, one TV to share with the family with 7 channels, etc. so when it was time to actually have a good time, it was easy for everyone to just wander to 'the spot'.
    And then art would happen - people would play records, and start dancing. and hip-hop was born right there, because you had a guy, the DJ, playing the music for everyone, trying to set the vibe. Sometimes a MC would get a mic or a boom box and hype up the crowd not just by rhyming, but by developing 'routines' and clever charismatic wordplay. True MCs also started rapping because it was impressive and also they started showcasing their DJs who played the right beats, and could manually scratch records and mix between records, and that became it's own artform. And then people would start break-dancing (breakin' boys became b-boys, and that type of dance was called bboying) and showing off. Kids would start tagging the areas they hung out in, and graffiti became attached to the culture of hip-hop.

    The Beastie’s are one of the very first rap groups to hit the mainstream. Chuck D said Run DMC brought rap to the edge of the suburbs and the Beasties drove it into the center of town. They opened the rap door for everyone. Ad Rock gave Rick Rubin LL Cool J’s demo because Rick Rubin worked with them as a DJ before he became known as the guru. If you want to know more about them check out 3 things. There’s a documentary that Ad Rock and Mike D made (RIP MCA), the video of Chuck D and LL Cool J inducting them into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and at least the first 15 minutes of their live set in Glasgow for MTV in 1999.

    That's part of the reason the Beastie Boys were accepted so well by the hip-hop and rap community in general. They weren't street guys like Eazy-E or Ice Cube, but they weren't trying to be either. They were who they were. They were just quirky dudes who loved to have a good time, and make rhymes, and music in general. What the Beastie Boys were most known for wasn't just their lyrics, or flow, it was also their knowledge of all sorts of music, and being able to put the pieces of different songs and styles together as a sort of fusion of rap, rock, and other forms of music. They had the best beats out there, and they would use electronic instruments, they would use traditional instruments in innovative ways, and used different sounds that the average rapper would never think of for the smallest little details to enhance some of their beats. They also had great voices that were perfect for creating their own sound.

    Beastie Boys *invented* a lot of what we think of as hip hop today. There were only a handful of hip hop artists who got any play at all on the radio at the time. They learned from block parties in Brooklyn, when hip hop was only a thing in certain neighborhoods in NY, and didnt exist anywhere else.
    They dont get the credit they deserve for making a genre that only existed in a few neighborhoods in Brooklyn into an internationally recognized genre of music. I was in 6th grade when License to Ill released, and it changed my world. My perception of what music is was changed by the Beastie Boys. And then we spent a decade listening to artists try to replicate what the Beastie Boys did.
    What we hear on the radio today is just a vague shadow of what hip hop was when it was a new and thriving genre of music.

Beastie Boys called them out for this on their track "Professor Booty" and dissed them back HARD.
    MCA TOTALLY went off on them on the last verse of the song and, later on, 3rd Bass actually APOLOGIZED for talking shit. I kinda oversimplified this, but the beef was squashed after that and they're cool with each other now.

The other thing worth noting is that there was always a faction of Hip-Hop heads who saw these guys as either gimmicks or not “real” Hip-Hop. They earned their stripes over time but, there were many haters…especially early in their career.

    They switched from Punk (1978-1981) to rap in 81. They were part of the rap pioneers. If Run Dmc are the kings of rap (they are) then the Beasties are the crowned princes. (Beastie boys 1978-2011)

    Back in the day when I was comming up, no one really cared. Good hip hop was good hip hop. "Street" wasnt really a term used to discribe any music type nor used to assign value of what an MC had to say.

    Clyde us a reference to Walter “Clyde” Frazier, a former NBA basketball player for the New York Knicks. He wrote a book called Rockin' Steady: A Guide to Basketball and Cool in 1974.

    Hip Hop is the culture composed of elements... DJing: Also known as "turntabling", this is the artistic use of beats and music
    MCing: Also known as "rhyming" or "emceeing", this is the act of putting spoken-word poetry to a beat
    Breakdancing: Also known as "B-boying", this is a dance form
    Graffiti: Also known as "writing" or "graf", this is the painting of highly stylized graffiti
    Theater and literature: This combines hip hop elements and themes in drama, poetry, and stories
    Knowledge of self: This includes the moral, social, and spiritual principles that inform and inspire hip hop ways of being
    So "rap" is the music of the hip hop culture.

    Beastie Boys were ahead of their time. I don't remember any beef they had because they kept it real. They didn't have too many "poppy" songs. They had some credibility from being from NYC, from collabs with Run DMC and many others.

    To me, rap is about story-telling, and hip-hop is about the beat. They are not mutually exclusive, but you can usually tell when a performance is strictly hip-hop, or rap. The first rap I ever heard on T.V. was in 1959, and it was called Hambone (black and white!). I still remember it. Hip-hop could not possibly be, in my humble opinion, until rock'n'roll grew out of blues and soul. But rap, apparently, was always there...

    I love how they refer back to the beginning because they were there! Actually brag about themselves using a more modern rap cadence, then go back towards to their roots and rap in a more old school way to cut down their rivals. This is one of my favorite songs by these guys.

    They were really well received by the skateboard/bmx community, as well as the alternative/rock fans. Hip hop fans respected their beats, flows, and how they paid homage and respect to music that influenced them. On top of that, they became supporters of humanitarian causes…
    Basically what im saying is… they appealed to a variety if different groups/segments. Didnt hurt that their dope af either
    As far as fueds/beefs… not really ti my knowledge. I know that they evolved quickly album to album and they weathered the transition of both hair metal to grunge, and call and response hip hop to gangsta rap. They went through it all, but they were good enough to not only survive it all, but thrive

    Ok, I remember witnessing rap battles, beat box battles, and break dance battles in middle school and beyond.
    A crowd would form in a circle around the two combatants and the energy was so organic, unpredictable, and combustible.
    Then, the two (or more) competitors would go back and forth trying to top each other, and the crowd would basically decide by their reactions who won and lost. If it was close, usually the competitors would dap it up, and the circle would collapse... but the energy would just hover around the spot.
    The Beasties are hip hop because they were emcees. Rappers just spit rhymes. Emcees (MC's) are Mic Controllers who Move the Crowd.
    They're hip hop because they were original, authentic, and they represented the culture. For that reason, nobody really hated on the Beasties as far as I know.
    Hip hop is fun, creative, and thoughtful. There's a lot of room to explore in hip hop. Rap started as boasting for the purpose of impressing the ladies in the crowd. Somehow it evolved into gangster rap and then it became just bragging about the drugs, guns, women, and money that the rapper moves or possesses.
    At the same time, they still mean mostly the same thing. A lot of rappers are emcees, and vice versa.
    But anyone who just raps isn't gonna last long.
