50 year old New Yorker, African American woman 👋🏽... I've watched several Beastie Boys reaction videos... Something that always surprises me is that many don't seem to realize that in this video (also Sabotage and a few others) the very dated, "campy" effects were totally intentional. It was intended to be humorous and capture the esthetic of the 70s, early 80s Godzilla tv shows etc. Also, as far as rhyming style... I don't think the Beastie boys were interested in becoming "relevant" by following rap trends. I always felt the BB were very loyal to the roots of Hip Hop and keeping that old school origin style alive. I enjoyed watching your individual reactions 👍🏽👍🏽.
How could anyone NOT get this?! 100% correct! They were doing THEIR thing, why would they trendchase?! Lol the reactions of people who just dont get it completely floor me. I just dont understand what's short circuiting in their brains to make them have such a poor assessment.
@@justanotherdayinthelife9841 Just a thought... Having watched quite a few of these reaction channels... I think it's just a matter of you had to be there. Like the era in which the music, music video was made. Like whatever the culture was at that particular time is hard to perceive if you are from a different generation. I also find (no judgment at all) that sometimes people have a hard time wrapping their heads around nyc culture... and what it was like. It was definitely niche I think compared to the rest of the country. It was in a lot of ways Abstract... especially Art. As much as I love history personally I will never understand the mindset of someone living in the 1850s... ya know.
One thing for sure Run DMC did not write License to Ill. Beastie Boys wrote the whole album with the exception of "Slow and Low" on which they share credit with McDaniels, Rubin, Simmons, and "Paul Revere" on which they share credit with McDaniels, Rubin, Simmons. So on two song Run and DMC get credit along with Rick Rubin. That's one thing about the Beastie Boys is that they always made their own beats, produced the records, played the instruments and often directed the videos, Only on this album the one they did on Def Jam they had Rick and Russel pushing the in directions they were not comfortable with so they quit. A little before Run Dmc was not writing this album AdRock not on discovered LL Cool J he produced the beat for LLs first single I need a Beat. So make sure you do your googles.
You had all dancing around moving and everything else and that's what this song does this dude on the left and dude on the right the hell with them they can't even smile
Also don't forget that Ad Rock was the guy that gave LL Cool J's demo to Rick Rubin and got him signed to Def Jam, and the Beastie Boys also gave him a spot on their tour w/ Run DMC. To this day LL frequently credits Ad Rock and the Beastie Boys for kick-starting his career--and LL is now considered a hip-hop pioneer. So even if it wasn't through their own music the Beastie Boys definitely shifted the hip-hop scene.
I can't speak to how this song was received by the hip hop community, but as a Alternative music fan, The Beasty Boys were on the level with the biggest names in Alternative and grunge. This record is among the very best of the time period and history for that matter.
Adam MCA Yauch also directed the video under the moniker, "Nathaniel Hornblower". It's from their "Hello Nasty" album, which is what put them back on the Pop charts.
That's a hard watch, that dude needs to educate to elevate. This ain't no biggie smalls garbage. No Megan the stallion bulshit, this is the Tom Brady of rap. Yeah I'm out old head, listen I'm a parliament P-Funk guy, that dude is lost gtg
I always thought the Beasties were just living life and enjoying the hell out of it all. Even on stage they'd pull some crazy stuff in between being amazing on the stick.
There are only two songs that have credits to run DMC on license to ill. Slow and low was a throwaway track from run DMC that they gave the Beastie Boys permission to record. Paul revere, the very intro was a run DMC suggestion. “Now here a little story I got to tell about three bad brothers you know so well” The rest of the song was all Beastie Boys and Rick Rubin. Get the facts my man.
As good as Intergalactic's beat is, it has NOTHING on "Paul Revere". The whole License to Ill album has some of the BEST Beastie Boys beats ever put on wax.
License to Ill is the album they hate and can't stand. Immature and horrible to them. I felt they got more creative after. Paul's Botique to me blows away Ill. But then again I'm not 15 anymore so the lyrics to Ill don't do it for me l;ike they did decades ago. Hello Nasty is a great album and heck the last album they did is slept on even from most fans.
@@danieldiggs9574 - I 100% agree that the Boys got "better" after Ill came out. But as far as JUST the beats are concerned? I still think they had better beats on Ill. BUT..... as far as COMPLEX beats and turn-tables? Well, I think they got better as they went along (like most bands will), but there is still something about those Ill beats that just seem to keep coming up as being "better". And honestly, I think that it has more to do with "simplistic concepts" vs "over production". And sadly, that was ONE issue I had with almost all the albums. It just sounded as they went along, someone in the production booth felt that there needed to be "more production tricks" added that started to sound a little "cluttered" on later tracks.
The BB were somewhat unique in that they were 3 MC's who were also a rock band. MCA on bass, AdRock on guitar, Mike D on drums. I think you will like their album Paul's Boutique best. It's peak Beasties. And the songs Rump Shaker, Sounds Of Science and Hey Ladies
I love the video. It's so campy like a cheesy Godzilla movie. Had me cracking up. If you listen to interviews with the guys, being funny, bringing humor to rap, was a defining principle.
Beastie Boys one of the best all time. Lately they feel underrated and slept on but all the legends give them props. The Roots, LL Cool J, Nas...list goes on. Licen to Ill they can't stand. They grew up, left Def Jam and became so much better and more.
Run DMC were friends with them but no, they definitely didn't wrote licence to ill...And you like the beat because they were musicians no ridiculous gangsta🤣
Run dmc wrote a few bars on Slow and Low, didn’t put it in their album, gave it to Beasties, who then in turn did their thing with it. Run dmc ain’t write that whole album son…
I love their vibe and videos if only just for the fact they uplift and lighten my mood. In this world and especially in entertainment it's still refreshing even if we had to dust of the video a little. Dude in the middle with the blue hat (sorry missed your name, first time watching this channel, oh OlliWoodda ) I had the same thing when I first revisited this track/ video, I had discarded it at the time it came out before I really even listened. LOVED the big smile of CoreyRoy pretty much the whole video long, you look like a ton of fun to be around. All out joy! I'm subscribing.
This song has so many great lines. And them sampling themselves mid-song. Who the fuck does that?!? "I like my sugar with coffee and cream." "When it comes to beats I'm a rap-o-phile." "When it comes to envy, y'all is green."
Run-DMC couldn't hold a candle to Beastie boys, we talkin about the Tom Brady of rap, they got rhymes for Daz, shitz layered it's stacked, dripping, there would be no LL Cool j without the.boys
Actually, this video got MTV Award in 1999 from this list of nominees: Busta Rhymes ft Janet Jackson- What's It Gonna Be?, LaurenHill- Doo Wop (That Thing) and TLC- No Scrubs.
Most videos everything looks slo-mo but the words out their mouth is on time.. What they do is when recording the video they play the music at double-speed. So they rap faster to the music. Then in the video the slow it down in editing so everything looks slo-mo but the lips are synced. For the fast bit I think they did the reverse. They played the track during the video shoot at half the speed. The played the track really slowly but they themselves moved fast and in real time and lips-synced on time. So when they they sped the video up to get the song back to normal speed they look like they're moving in double speed but their lips are syncing normally.
where did you read that run dmc had the idea for paul revere? please post that link. mca made the backwards beat for one thing, and i am guessing they wrote all their rhymes, so...
First time i heard someone that did not appriciate their video or said they hated a song from them. Beastie Boys, rap pioneers. Lyrics wise, it's their style. It don't have to be wu tang lyrics for it to be good. Some of yall are missin out..and it's rihght in front of yo face. Smh
as an ex club DJ I remember this song well. Recall it was 1998 and you may have had West Coast tracks dominating radio along Bad Boy Records artists. This track fit well with the white club audience with tracks such as House of Pain "Jump Around" and there was also that alternative scene with festivals such as Lollapalooza. Beastie Boys was prob the only group that rocked that old school hip hop flavor with kangols, baggie jeans and Adidas 3 stripe sneakers. I don't think they were trying to say "we're in touch or ahead of the culture." They were intentionally rocking the old school with flare. Plus they added that black skinny suits from something out of Reservoir Dogs. They had their own thing going.
Always though the video was a metaphor about other type of rap but when they show up, they killing it!!! Boys could rap alot of peeps just played it cause the video.
I think I know how they did that hyper-speed effect when they're rapping: I'm pretty sure what they were singing to live was the song slowed down to half-speed. Then they ran the footage at 2x speed.
99.9% of rappers today are not in same league as The Beastie Boys. 2 time Grammy award winning, 7 plat albums and over 50 million records sold world wide. Not bad for 3 guys from Brooklyn that started out as a punk rock band.
DMC wrote the intro for Paul Revere. Beasties used the originally RUN DMC Slow and low beat... AND THATS IT Licensed to ill was a full Beastie boys Rick Rubin creation. I guessed This is common knowledge.
Tell em is able to do what they did like 3 MCs and one dj i can't call him the goat, they even did a beat box track with biz, let alone they made and mixed all their music
Songs at that time were made for breaking and popping. I am aging myself but I was in a top west coast crew. I was in it for the girls. I stuck with poplocking My clothes were to expensive to spin on cardboard. Lol another thing alot their videos are from TV series like sabotage and this from godzilla. Not Power Rangers. So they are living Tv icons & they are true pioneers legends influences. Like it or not
Daryl McDaniels (DMC) helped the Beasties write the SONG, PAUL REVERE. THAT WAS IT. The rest of the tunes were totally theirs. Paul's Boutique was better, and Check Your head was better yet.
Run had nothing to do with it. He is lying, or bragging The Beasties and Run DMC shared both of their first tours. Before the Beasties, rap never got outta Brooklyn and the Bronx.
The whole video was shot in Japan. They were walking around Tokyo in those Japanese construction worker suits. Just doing some crazy shit in a different country. No permits no nothing, just walking around and watching some Japanese citizens reactions. As for the monsters they got the idea from being in Japan. Hence the Godzilla vibe. I think you guys missed the point. Its creative and memorable to say the least. Definitely wasn't like any other rap or rock video for that matter.

Exactly. This guy. You cannot just spout something like that without saying where you are getting it from, unless you can know the Beastie Boys.
Wikipedia ....
Wewuz BB Ghostwriters an sheet
Run only wrote the first 4 lines of Slow and Low
Facts!
"Run DMC wrote License to Ill"
In what world did that happen? That's news to me.
They wrote songs for run dmc not the other way around
Licensed to Ill was written by the Beastie Boys. First rap album to top the billboard charts.
Loosen up Fenom202. It's supposed to be a send up of '50s monster B-movies. It's a bit of fun...wicked beats and humorous lyrics...it hits the mark.
Definitely does 🤘
In what universe did Run DMC write Licensed to Ill.
exactly lmfao
they contributed to it. they co wrote "paul revere" for sure.
No ghost writing here. FACTS.
"do your googles"
me: wooooooah boys. thems fighting words now.
Nah they are parodying the old Godzilla flicks in Japan
'Where'd ya get ya information from?' - Beastie Boys, So Whatcha Want. (They write their own material, look it up.)
Sub par video? Ouch. That video is infamous and one of the best and more innovative videos out there. Great creativity.
Beastie Boys did a cover of Slow and Low by Run-DMC (a track they never recorded). The rest of Licensed to Ill was written by Beastie Boys themselves.
You had all dancing around moving and everything else and that's what this song does this dude on the left and dude on the right the hell with them they can't even smile
Bull top left is haaaaaating it.
LOL RUN DMC did not write LTI It was mostly Adrock and Rick Rubin. Adrock also made the beat for LL Cool J s "I need a beat"
Your undervaluing the beastie boys and the influence. Do googles as you say. Keep grinding guys
Just look at Eminem’s album cover for Kamikaze to see how much influence they had.
And what many people don't know, or forget, The Beastie Boys started out in the Hard Core Scene before they switched to Hip Hop.
Yes, RUN DMC did NOT write the album.. they contributed to 2 songs as they were label and tour mates. Homeboy needs to research his Homeboys!
Also don't forget that Ad Rock was the guy that gave LL Cool J's demo to Rick Rubin and got him signed to Def Jam, and the Beastie Boys also gave him a spot on their tour w/ Run DMC. To this day LL frequently credits Ad Rock and the Beastie Boys for kick-starting his career--and LL is now considered a hip-hop pioneer. So even if it wasn't through their own music the Beastie Boys definitely shifted the hip-hop scene.
3 MCs and 1 DJ
I can't speak to how this song was received by the hip hop community, but as a Alternative music fan, The Beasty Boys were on the level with the biggest names in Alternative and grunge.
This record is among the very best of the time period and history for that matter.
I love old Beasties best too, but this song is still a banger.
This song is from 1998. It's old itself. Dam and so am I
Not another PLANET..
ANOTHER.............
DIMENSION
Fenom knocking actual creators.
Try this from the same album: 3 MCs and 1 DJ. Seriously...
Love it!
It’s fun and outside the box.
Beastie Boys are just so damn FUN!
Exactly. Just effing FUN!!!!
They got an A from moe dee for sticking to themes
Three MCs and One DJ or So What'Cha Want.
I always got the impression they got the monster and robot from the "Godzilla" genre that was huge in the 60s/70s
Remember Specter Man? This could’ve been filmed directly from that show!
Man, that’s not just incorrect but pretty disrespectful to the BBs as artists to claim Run DMC wrote License to Ill. Google Google Google
Get It Together, guys
If y'all haven't done Root Down, it's FIRE!!! The video is a great homage to hip hop.
Root Down is one of the songs I go to when I'm in a foul mood. Never fails to help pull my out.
Beasties are labeled as the godfathers of hip hop culture
Man homie in the top left had zero expression the entire time LOL you have to be more than a statue when you doing a reaction😂

The first 30 seconds of the song is all rhymes on the word "smile".
Gotta love that 16. 🙂

I bumped this all the time in the old Mustang, lol It hit hard. Still does. I only had two 12's. If you had 15's, you were superstars, ha ha
Paul’s Boutique. The whole album. It’s GOATed.
Did you ever watch “ SpecterMan” on TV? The cheesy costumes are all from that show!! 😂
Did you guys know Rick Rubin was Beastie Boys original DJ
Beastie Boys one of the best all time. Lately they feel underrated and slept on but all the legends give them props. The Roots, LL Cool J, Nas...list goes on. Licen to Ill they can't stand. They grew up, left Def Jam and became so much better and more.

Beastie Boys were one of the pioneers who lead the way for Artists today
Did you know they were originally a Punk Rock group n played alot of there own instruments n later in the music you can kind of hear it
Actually, this video got MTV Award in 1999 from this list of nominees: Busta Rhymes ft Janet Jackson- What's It Gonna Be?, LaurenHill- Doo Wop (That Thing) and TLC- No Scrubs.
YEs, Paul Revere.... MY personal fave- Looking down the barrel of a gun.
Most videos everything looks slo-mo but the words out their mouth is on time.. What they do is when recording the video they play the music at double-speed. So they rap faster to the music. Then in the video the slow it down in editing so everything looks slo-mo but the lips are synced.

I absolutely loved this album.
i love for how a split second they show the green screen behind them. too funny.
Run DMC had the idea for Paul Revere. License to Ill was all them
where did you read that run dmc had the idea for paul revere? please post that link. mca made the backwards beat for one thing, and i am guessing they wrote all their rhymes, so...
They didn’t evolve… but I like their old stuff. Lol. Cmon man. Textbook contradiction.

If you want lyrics, go back and listen to the albums Ill Communication and Paul's Boutique. Masterpieces of hip hop.
as an ex club DJ I remember this song well. Recall it was 1998 and you may have had West Coast tracks dominating radio along Bad Boy Records artists.

From what I remember they found more love from the metal heads than the rappers.
Always though the video was a metaphor about other type of rap but when they show up, they killing it!!! Boys could rap alot of peeps just played it cause the video.
I think I know how they did that hyper-speed effect when they're rapping: I'm pretty sure what they were singing to live was the song slowed down to half-speed. Then they ran the footage at 2x speed.
They killed that
Get It Together w/ Q-Tip is the track to react to. Sure Shot also.
99.9% of rappers today are not in same league as The Beastie Boys. 2 time Grammy award winning, 7 plat albums and over 50 million records sold world wide. Not bad for 3 guys from Brooklyn that started out as a punk rock band.
No LL Cool J without Beastie Boys
DMC wrote the intro for Paul Revere.
Beasties used the originally RUN DMC Slow and low beat...
AND THATS IT
Licensed to ill was a full Beastie boys Rick Rubin creation.
I guessed This is common knowledge.
Every time I hear “ooh Ooh Child”
The whole video done in Tokyo was all done guerrilla. Grab a camera get dressed up and go shoot some fun images.
Tell em is able to do what they did like 3 MCs and one dj i can't call him the goat, they even did a beat box track with biz, let alone they made and mixed all their music
One of the best videos no doubt!
this is a tongue in cheek and kinda campy song not to be be taken serious just a fun tune
No lyrical growth lol it’s the effing Beastie Boys😂
Songs at that time were made for breaking and popping. I am aging myself but I was in a top west coast crew. I was in it for the girls. I stuck with poplocking My clothes were to expensive to spin on cardboard. Lol another thing alot their videos are from TV series like sabotage and this from godzilla. Not Power Rangers. So they are living Tv icons & they are true pioneers legends influences. Like it or not
Run DMC and LL Cool J both used Ad Rock's 808 to make their first albums.
The Beastie Boys wrote all the tracks on license to I’ll.
Much love to the Beasties
This did win best just hip hop video when it came out
Did you guys notice "No Sleep til Brooklyn" from their first album was in GOTG3?
I loved them ♡ yall should do some Rag against the machine, killing in the Name
Beastie Boys wrote Sabotage. According to google.
To me it's one of the best video clips ever.
Daryl McDaniels (DMC) helped the Beasties write the SONG, PAUL REVERE. THAT WAS IT. The rest of the tunes were totally theirs. Paul's Boutique was better, and Check Your head was better yet.
Run had nothing to do with it. He is lying, or bragging The Beasties and Run DMC shared both of their first tours. Before the Beasties, rap never got outta Brooklyn and the Bronx.

No permits no nothing, just walking around and watching some Japanese citizens reactions. As for the monsters they got the idea from being in Japan. Hence the Godzilla vibe. I think you guys missed the point. Its creative and memorable to say the least. Definitely wasn't like any other rap or rock video for that matter.
YUPPPPPPP!!!!!! A+for UNIQUE. These days it's all sterile.Sad days my friends....
Fenom was determined to not like it all the way through.
LL said BB gave him his shot..he wouldn't have made it without them.
The OG UNDENIABLE!!! 💯💯💯
Run dmc did not write that. Rick Rubin wrote most of run dmc early works. With input from run. Get facts correct.
You might like "Sure Shot" & "Root Down" by the Beastie Boys. Make sure to do the videos if you react to those.
Hold up. Run DMC only wrote Paul Revere. The rest of licensed to Ill is all Beasties
