from the heart....because anyone who "bought" hiphop in that Era, loved the Beasties

i liked "liscense to ill" as an album

twas never a fan of drunken whiteboy hiphop

why? in groups folks like that can get dangerous, or just reckless and say something that'll cause you to catch a case

but not to my blak ass.

maybe i was too young or whatever, but i never dug them cats even when they got play on kday.

nah, a nigga did dig "brass monkey" tho. hahaha

runDMC actually could rhyme.

run's flow was revolutionary. jmj's tablework was classic. i can remember all his cuts and scratches from those records just like the lyrics.

of course, aything seem corny when looking back into the past, but x and jahlil was the truth back in the day, in context.

they brought that grown up vibe to hip hop. i got close to getting ass to Five Minutes Of Funk, and Freaks Come Out At Night. they was sex symbols. all them leather short sets was a little extra, but tame as hell compared to flash an nem.

hindsight is a mug. just think what future generations are gonna say about the clothes THESE folks are wearing

I STILL rock it to this day.

truuuuuuuuueeeee

now that's saying something...

he hated "that noise".

at the end of the day, though...

So do we now admit that white boys did help in the foundation of hip-hop? the beastie boys are a solid example that rap music has never been just one color.

>and musically they were dope.

they didn't do their music any more than the beasties did

>without them, there's no nas.

*blink*

nah

beyond that..

i'll never forget that video where they beatdown the fake hammer with baseball bats

they went there on several levels

1. this was around the time of bensonhurst, so a gaggle of whiteboys (i don't care how many colored friends they had....don newkirk notwithstanding) beatign a brother with bats wasn't cute

2. hammer had done more for more people than they knew

3. they weren't THAT down because it would have been easy for THEM to catch one (how you gonna be someone who was "let in" then try to hold the keys?)

but i digress

"must've been a white guy who started all that!"

they had problems, but their music was doper than that beasties shit.
