May 4, 201214 yr Cancer sucks. Beasties ruled, and I practically wore out my Licensed to Ill record back in the day. They were great fun live, too. Rap In Peace, MCA.
May 4, 201214 yr "The Beastie Boys tore down the walls that existed between rock and rap and did so with such crazy grace and seamless groove that nobody noticed until the deed was done and music fans were left wondering what hit them. Even people who up-until-then had no place for hip-hop in their lives, found themselves smitten. And the hardcore haters were musically bum-rushed so swiftly by the sonic velociraptors from NYC that resistance was futile. Everybody ended up coming to the party and found it worth fighting for." http://ow.ly/1LGwpf
