I truly believe the Roots can play any kind of music you give them perfectly.
too perf if u ask me,,, needs more slop
THE LEGENDARY ROOTS CREW. 215 IN THE BUILDING
Cause they are rooted. In this shit
Absolutely
I thought that was Questlove...... Love you all!! Wonderful performance. Great shout out!!!!!
dude the guitarist fuckin KILLED sabotage. and mix master mike was killing it too
That's Captain Kirk of The Roots
First time seeing this and he was the best part
Oh yeah, he nailed it
Except that part is supposed to be on the bass
@@siractionslacks890 and it still sounds good so who gives an absolute shite about it
Watching this makes me tear up. Beastie Boys were such a huge part of my life growing up. Brings back such fond memories of getting License to Ill on tape and playing the shit out of it. RIP MCA.
Mom you’re just jealous it’s the BEASTIE BOYS
♥️♥️ for each of you 🙃 me, too! ♥️
The first song I ever learned for myself was Paul Revere! I can still sing it word for word! And I learned it about 3 months after License to Ill came out!
I feel ya...I was in the same situation. Getting License To Ill and popping it in my walkman listening to it for hours over and over again. Then seeing the Beasties in concert 3 times together with A Tribe Called Quest... another great Hip Hop group pioneering the way like the Beastie Boys !!! The Beasties and ATCQ at Lollapalooza 94 is 1 of my best top 3 concerts ! The 94 Lollapalooza was the Beasties Ill Communication album coming out and ATCQs Midnight Marauders album coming out...both great albums ! Some good fond memories !!!
the teenage inside me is still mourning him, you know its sabotage
Guitar player nailed the vocals. In key and nailed the attitude.
“Captain” Kirk Douglas, guitar player for The Roots. One of the best to ever do it.
Absolutely!
MixMasterMike wearing a Nuclear Assault shirt is just too perfect
marchatesyou1 there aren’t many bands that I wanted to see that I never got to see (I’ve been to probably a couple thousand shows in the past 30 years) but I never got a chance to see nuclear assault and I would have killed to see them.
Terrific thrash metal band.
Lol, I noticed that too! Makes sense, Nuclear Assault was from NY too. Seems the NY groups are pretty tight and support each other, even different genres. Like Anthrax was always sporting Beastie Boys and Public Enemy shirts on stage
I adore Nuclear Assault. They were singing about people wrecking the environment long before the world at large really gave a shit. So great to see the legend, MMM, supporting.
I'm a 47 yr old black woman THIS ALL I KNOW!! I love em I'm in tears super excited
57 years here girl. Still bump this daily
I'm 50 year old white dude and still busting this rhyme gal ❤🎶🎶
Hells yeah
39 here. Beastie Boys have always been dope as fk 👌🏾... Rip MCA🕊️
Just shows you how many people it takes to reproduce the beastie boys sound. Just three guys had so much vocal power and attitude that it's hard to replicate.
Tbh Travis Scott and to a lesser degree Kid Rock were kinda trash.
This sounds shit
DJ stole the show hands down the roots are no slouch too
, Mix Master Mike is the fucking GOAT
Actually that would be Q-bert. They were in the same group though Invisible Skratch Pickelz
When MCA passed, that was the first time I realized the finite nature of time. I remember my dad getting all sad about artists from his generation when they passed. MCA was my first tase of that bitter cup, Many have since gone... Layne Staley, Chris Cornell, "Dimebag Darrell"... and time just seems to keep on accelerating.
same here man, "finite nature of time'
It’s called life…people die…
Kirk Douglas(the guitar player at the end) total killed the vocals! His style/voice fit perfectly!!
He is the only one who did nail it
Seeing Black men doing their best Ad-Rock impressions makes me as a Black man feel less weird when I do it 😂😂😂
Music has no colour
Said this all my life. There are musicians, and there are artists. Nuff said.
hahaha.. thank you for this.
Hahaha awesome
Haha, you the man!
That is how you DJ no computer. Just pure raw talent
4:51 hes using serato on a laptop, still dope tho!
I love how Quest Love has become the Paul Schaffer of this generation.❤️
That is so true.
Didn’t even think of that. Great observation!
Yes, and what a long way we have come. Proud of that and hope to see more talents like Quest take those opportunities as well as bigger roles in popular media.
When he pens an artistic opus like "it's Raining Men" I will agree.
While that is true that quest love is in many places , the truth of the matter is thats the roots playing!
Mix Master Mike tears those turn tables up... he's amazing ! Seeing QuestLove on the drums, MMM on the tables while Black Thought, Kid Rock, and Travie sing was bad arse !
Travie did a SMASH up job!! So happy to see him get to do a tribute to the Beasties!!
Mix Master Mike is ON POINT!
Wow, I always thought they were unique, but I never thought they’d be this hard to cover. The personality is a huge part of their music.
Their style can never be replicated. They are masters of the craft.
Beastie Boys and RUN DMC were THE groups of the 80s!!!! Classics!!
Got chills the second Sabotage dropped!
Most definitely!!!
this bro the guitar of the roots he made the best sabotage performance ever
Captain Kirk never disappoints 👍🏾
It's like The ROOTS can do ANYTHING
They pretty much can. They were the band for Jay-Z unplugged. That was freaking awesome
The hiphop medleys they did with Fallon/Timberlake are the best thing ever.
RIP MCA. Beastie Boys were the soundtrack of my life when I was 13. Me n my patnas would each be one of the Beasties when we were high off that sticky icky and play one of their albums as loud as we could and Rap every bar word for word. When I was 18, we drove for over an hour to get to one of their concerts, just to find out it was sold out. We stayed in the parking lot anyway, bumpin their music, getting high and hollerin at girls
The reason why the Roots are the inventors of the hip hop band. The legendary Roots crew!!! RiP Adam Yauch!!!🤘
The Roots are a great hip hop band, but Stetsasonic was the original hip hop band. Check out "Talking all that Jazz"
Sugar hill gang?
Late to this response but the sugar hill gang used a live band. Lets not forget Errol Eduardo Bedwardt AKA Pumpkin one of Hip Hip greatest percussionist. Hell the beastie Boys did an album playing their own instruments.
You guys know beastie boys played the instruments right?!
@@lonnielongino798Was about to say what you said beloved. Go Stetsa! 1988 Brooklyn...💯💯💯💪🏾
One of my biggest regrets was never getting to see Beastie Boys live. They would have been amazing w/the live
They were, I'm 52 and from the UK 🇬🇧 and saw them 6 times over the years, unbelievably entertaining, switching lyrics spontaneously to suit where they were playing just fucking awesome 👌
@@spikeythings3493 46 from quebec, saw them live 3 times, best show bad brains was supposed to open for them but the singer had a sore throath or something so Beasties just went on and did every single song they had! Really some of the best entertainers i have ever seen live!
I saw them open for Run DMc in Hampton VA, one of the best shows I ever seen.
Saw them 3 times. Tibet Freedom Rally and twice on the tour they did on the revolving stage. Each time amazing. No other word for it
Saw them a couple times, but the best one was in LA, we bought tickets for way back on the lawn. But, some desperate soul came up to us and said he can sell us PIT tickets and we were like nah bro, look fake. He walked all the way up to the ticket entrance with us and sure enough, they were legit. He wanted $80 for each, we gave him $100 for each plus our lawn seat tickets. Was a great show.
That man is a true MASTER of the turn tables....👍🏻
Roots killed it and I never noticed damn
I love Mix Master Mike so much. I first saw him in the invizible skratch pickelz in 1983-1984 at the On Broadway in San Francisco. They were completely amazing and humble young men. Little geniuses, each and everyone of them. Back then as well as now.
I saw Qbert, Mix Master Mike, Disk, and Shortkut for the first time at Storyville on Fulton street in San Francisco back in 2000 when I moved to SF. I don't think they were performing in 83/84 because they were children.
@@greghawkins1507 you have a sharp eye & sold historical knowledge my friend.
Should have read, 93/94.
Not the first time I’ve lost a decade.
I blame decades of repetitively participating in questionable lifestyle choices.
Well it’s totally rad that you saw them in arguably their heyday, there in the city, in a somewhat intimate setting. Experiencing epic live music of any sort is my favorite way to feel like I am participating in history. I miss live music. I sometimes feel concerned that the whole live music experience in general is history. I hope I’m just going through some temporary pandemic paranoia and the populace will quit politicizing the virus and put a covering over their ugly faces in order to slow down The destruction from this virus. Although at this point, the level of destruction seems equal to the levels of delusion of so many people.
Sheesh.
Sorry about that.
Not sure how I strayed off track so quickly.
Well actually....
@@ga0425 haha so understand my friend. What a fun time this was in SF. I barely made it moving to SF in December 99~January 2000. I was lucky enough to be connected to the electronic music scene before I moved here , and worked with folks like Naut Humon, Jonah Sharp, Daum Bentley and Gavin Hardkiss
Totally name dropping, but met Naut Humon at that show at Storyville, and met Mike as well being an Asphodel night. Two weeks later I met my hip hop hero Kool Keith at the Maritime Hall which was a massive shit show. He walked out and demanded the crowd to pass him flower or he would leave, and ironically that’s what happened.
Mix Master Mike with his Nuclear Assault t-shirt!!! Gotta love it!
Kid Rock wouldn't be caught dead in that room today.
Yea that didn't age well.
Whoever sang Sabotage should get a medal
That's Captain Kirk of The Roots. He's a fuckin' brilliant musician. Everyone in The Roots is, but Kirk And ?uestlove are legit geniuses.
That was beautiful. For an old hip hop head like myself, that brings some great memories.
Eff Kid rock
How did I miss this? 2012? Wow. KID Rock Black Thought and Travis McCoy... whole performance was fire.. true hip hop homage.. 👌 🙌 👏 💯 😎 that was rock n roll yesterday today and forever
No, no it wasn’t.
They brought up the art of Hip Hop and they lifted up everyone with art.
It’s complex music. Not easy to pull of something that cohesive when you’re not the Beasties themselves.
Yes, especially the rapping style where one begins the sentence, the second finishes it while the third one interjects single words. You need to have a flow as a group, not just as an individual.
Yeah sort of like a Lime to a Lemon. This was a disaster. MCA would agree. IMO
That version of Sabotage was fucking off the chain
Captain Kirk killed it on Sabotage.
Not really but he's the best of them all
Playing the bass on Sabotage is how I file the fingernails on my right hand.. its brutal!😁
Make yo body work!
@@kristinagilbert9448 could you link better performance of it for us?
Saw Kid bk when he was cool
Yeah, i´m a fan of the Roots and Cpt. Kirk Douglas!
Great performance on "Sabotage"!
Great stuff. Would've loved to hear them do anything off the Paul's Boutique record. That was the album when I realized these guys are awesome.
There's a tiny bit of "Shake Your Rump" in there if you listen closely.
@@weebunny Paul's Boutique would have been difficult to do live because there was SO much sampling. I mean, some songs had five or six different songs sampled. Personally, I am glad they tried to stay with the songs that were mainly original.
Mix Master Mike should have been part of the Beastie boys induction and speech.. Without him I don't think the BB would have been as iconic
100% correct my friend. He was the backbone of The Beastie Boys
@@douglasrisinger3285 They have been successful since the 80's. Long before Mix Master Mike. Yes Mix Master Mike is dope and a continuation of true B-boy culture.
Mix master mike is insanely talented. That said, the B-Boys were iconic years before Mike joined in to make Hello Nasty.
DJ Hurricane would have a few words to say bout that
I remember this performance. It absolutely KILLED, it was like they’d detonated sticks of dynamite onstage. And I’m not even a big fan of the Beastie Boys. I felt sorry for whoever had to follow that.
Mix Master Mike always delivers! Super Dope performance!
The Roots are DOING WORKKKK
They're puttin' up numbers.
these people didn't understand what mix master mike did at the begining
Enlighten all of us
He melted my face.
The precision was ridiculous!
Yeah the lack of reaction was sad
@@AnthonyL0401 he used a(1) record to create a beat, he jumped the needle from snare and kicks to horns and keys scratchin without the help of a laptop. good luck to any popular contemporary djs to have that skill set today. (not saying they ain't out there, jus saying)
Seeing them stand in respect for Mix Master Mike 💯🔥
These gues stand above every thing Else 🙏
I missing the old school scratches. The ricochet 'Ahhhhh' and Fresssshh (and the electronic 'tape drop' brought into the mainstream with Paul Hardcastle's '19' - None of them received a hero's welcome - TAPE DROP ) from Fab Five Freddie's 1982 vinyl "Change The Beat" was used so much in early hip hop and crossover dance (Bomb The Bass , Ed Stratton's Mel and Kim remixes etc) and then sampled to f*ck throughout the 80s and 90s. . Let's bring it back. F-F-Fresh. ahhhhhhhhhhhhh
Of course nothing compares to the original but these guys did a a good effort and made the Trek to pay homage to one of the greatest hip hop groups of all time... Rip MCA we miss you!
The DJ's nailed it just by wearing a Nuclear Assault shirt.
EDM fans I present to you.... a real fucking DJ
facts
@@RAID3R63...can u mix and scratch? if not stfu
@@GrizzlyAus I’m not sure you understand the term “facts”
@@iloverugby7901 sorry still asking?
Turntablist...please
They are royalty in Brooklyn !
Just watching this now. I'm in 😢 😿 😹 my favorite group of all time. These guys replicated it well. Props!
Mix Master Mime! Still strong! That was awesome!
Just saw Kid Rock come on stage, and when I tell you that ruined my entire day...
tell me he didn't do MCA justice? Even Chuck D says KR is a big talent.
It's bc you're racist
you ruined your own day and now many others
Best hip hop group ever
Loved all of it but So Watcha Want is an organ masterpiece!
That performance was🔥🔥🔥
Are you on drugs or having a stroke or both?
I have chills throughout my entire body... WOW
I just can’t with kid rock it’s like being on a bad acid trip
ISH! I'll remember Beastie and their legacy in my own way.
Sabotare dal vivo,......semplicemente grandi......mA esistete beastie GIRL?????SHAKE YOUR RUMP......
Mix Master Mike is the best!
I like beastie boys, Saludos desde españa.
Hip Hop is still under represented in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 😞😮
i mean. yeah
nice and touching tribute.
To see this live??
Powerful
That was so good, that I wanted more!
Love the T-Shirt of the DJ
apremdam isso mundo!!!!! homenagem aos nrancos que fizeraam sucesso no meio dos pretos, ganharam o respeito deles e hoje sao homenagiados por todas as raças e classes!!!!! foda!!!!
Man, Macaulay Culkin is looking old nowerdays haha
😂😂😂😂😂😂
THAT WAS VERY COOL
lo mejor del rap que hubo y habrá los bb. saludos desde argentina
Awesome tribute
This was glorious and Questlove, other than always being awesome, adding that tidy cap on the end was perfect.
Black Thought is such a legend, well so is the original Roots Crew, if only they were still together
R.I.P. Malik B and Hub 😪
Mix master mike rocking that Nuclear Assault t-shirt son!!!
Best DJ in the world.
Good music finds its way
I'm so I got to see them live in 2004. Im 48 now and Beastie Boys are always on my Spotify.
Love! Beastie boys. ✊🏻
I hope that was the last time Kid Rock was on stage with these legends.
I wish Kid Rock was not a part of this. I'm sure the Beasties feel the same.
I liked the hair pick move while shifting gears for Sabotage - classic
I love the giant VW chain
Que chingón!!!!!
Legendary!!!!!
Beastie Boys deserved a much better performance of their classic songs.
Agree that was not good enough.
That sucked the big one.
Travie & Kid Rock could’ve been replaced with better....
@@clintwaddell4482 you cant make everyone happy. i liked it
It was good enough but not long enough
YOOO That was fucking AMAZING! Now let me look under here and see how many other fans said the same damn thang...
God damn that DJ made my day!
Pretty sure if this tribute were to happen now due to a later induction of the Beastie Boys, with the larger spotlight on this ceremony now, I'd expect a more thoughtful tribute backed by a larger budget that would include interviews with AC/DC, Aerosmith, Rick Ruben, Russell Simmons, RUN DMC, and perhaps include George Clinton and Parliament in the musical tribute who performed with them on the lollapalooza tour. Not to mention the connection to NWA and Dre being massively influenced by them.
Yawn
The Roots baby ❤
Let me clear my throat! And the rest is history... I don't know how many times I played The New Sound so my children would know... DROP!
Yes of course it’s nothing like the Bboys!, it’s a tribute induction song w other artists. Still badass!
I'm a rocker BUT BUT BUT, SO SO SO, BEASTIE BOYS RULES.... PEACE!
When THE bass riff at 3:35 comes in... 🤘
I saw this live, it was better live, I know that’s hard to believe, but it’s the TRUTH ✊🏼
Hearing how terrible this is makes you really appreciate how good the Beastie Boys are
So good!! Lovin it!
These guys are literally a foundation of Rap, 3 white dudes from Brooklynn lol, always wondered which was more unlikely, B Boys being rap foundation, or Bad Brains being a prog metal foundation lol, both fantastic.
Bad Brains also were the beginning of hard core. Such an epic band. I wish I would have seen them back in the day.
Adam and Mike are from Manhattan. Yauch is the only one from Brooklyn.
Badass. Legends of hip
Hop. They did a great job representing
Back when Kid Rock was still cool 🥺
dude, even this shit was like 10 years after Kid Rock was popular. That one-hit wonder shouldn't be on stage and even in the same breathe as the beastie boys
@@alalalalalon lol,why so salty...kid rock dope
Paul's Boutique is in my DNA
