Beastie Boys hosting MTV's 120 Minutes (05.29.1994)

Prior to the Beastie Boys taking the summer of 1994 to co-headline Lollapalooza, they hosted the 120 Minutes alternative music video show. For this appearance Adam Yauch was in his Sir Stewart Wallace alter ego throughout the show, while Mike D and Adam Horovitz took turns wearing a mullet wig. Perhaps the most interesting part of the show was when the group showed the part from Graffiti Rock which they used as a sample in "Alright Hear This".

It's pretty bad when Mike D has to be the responsible one hahahaha!!!

[@derrickd3226]

I like how Sir Stewart Wallace's accent just keeps changing through out the show.

[@Significant7rapsongs]

Eric Fisher lmao

[@oliviamae8577]

[@kv3416]

[@Significant7rapsongs]

Sir stewart Wallace is kingin it. He's honestly my uncle and he gave me a toilet paper roll that king Tut Actully once owned. I took it to Pawn Stars and ChumLee purchased it for $5,500. Sorry uncle sir Stewert

[@mojo2679]

MCA's English posh accent is spot on. A man of many talents. RIP.

[@ssjwes]

Mike D. really keep the show together wow no help from Ad-Rock and MCA/aka Sir Stewart lol MTV used to be more interesting to watch in the 80's-90's. Its not all bad now but still nothing like it used to be. RIP Adam Yaunch.

[@richardwatson298]

I wish I could see the Beatsie Boys on the Lotsa Losers Tour.

[@deboneighr4201]

No school today alex? Hmmmm?

[@Funkgun]

Sir Stewart Wallace was in Sabotage, so he must have been taking a break from filming

[@codylocamy6817]

Got to say 3 things...
1) The one person who doesnt like this video is probaly the executive producer that worked for 120 minutes back in 94 and got fired because ADROCK said "Orgy Pit" funny as shit btw.
2) Sacha Baron Cohen was probaly REALLY high back when this first aired and after watching MCA's (RIP) oscar winning performance he got the idea for Borat.
3) And also I like to say that MCA probaly really said "Im gonna go fuck something" instead of 'fox hunting".
Much love B-Boys and B-Girls

[@kidscotch39]

nice job

[@chriswalski]

Luv ya MCA!

[@bpmode]

They loved the Valley Girl soundtrack. Me, too! No it didn't have that wretched Valley Gril song by Moon Zappa.

[@guiltyfeethavenorhythm]

It's not moon zappa it's frank ahahha

[@dudewhyfi]

ad-rock big up!

[@LadyApril1]

[@Bboys1fan]

[@Babylasagna123]

[@phillipizvernari5877]

[@richardagnew]

@Bboys1fan It's Italian. Never seen this before though. Very cool. MTV used to be pretty awesome. Shame it sucks now.

[@rayminthecat]

They must be new I've never heard of them

[@brendaluna173]

i wish time machines were real, all the musicians i love are dead or now are doing shit i dont like.

[@pashon4percushon]

where's the rest of the 100 minutes?

[@TRAYBALLUNO]

South Bay 👍🏻

[@PollitoConPapas2024]

What is the name of the song ? 2:49

[@TheBrooklynDodger]

Does anyone know what video was playing around 17:10, that they joked the singer looked like Malcom McDowell? I can't for the life of me figure it out and its missing from the 120 Minutes episode tracklist!

[@supersmash8388]

+TheBrooklynDodger ruclips.net/video/1C_fVnE3xHY/видео.html

[@supersmash8388]

+TheBrooklynDodger And also, they don't say or mean he looks like Malcolm McDowell. They say "the guy from One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest" which I'm pretty sure they mean Brad Dourif.

[@TheBrooklynDodger]

+Super Smash Haha good point, was confusing it with Clockwork Orange. Any idea what the song is?

[@TheBrooklynDodger]

+TheBrooklynDodger Never mind, I see you posted it! Thank you!!!!

[@syahmiysf]

I have the series finale of this show from 2003. If you're interested, I can upload it right now.

[@pashon4percushon]

yeah go ahead

[@mollygreeno7069]

I'm INTERESTED. GO FOR IT Sound IT OUT

[@mollygreeno7069]

I LOVE YOU MCA!! YOU MY FAVORITE..RIP LOVE

[@JuicyRawLove]

It's always the case...

[@sylvesterbestertester1013]

Now there's an expression to never make it out of the 80's, thankfully.
FRESH...

[@Bruceybaby2009]

I'm going fox hunting!

[@simmy3000]

AdRock was slightly mentally challenged during this period wasn't he? I know he's stoned but he's like a 3 year old child here, must have been a challenge. Yauch and MikeD look like annoyed parents.

[@rippedtorn2310]

only you think that.

[@dannylorean8825]

Yeah. Only you, pal

[@victoriasoto1017]

Dude, if that was the case they wouldn't have lasted until death do them part.

[@MarkMacc]

Mike D looks like Adam Lanza in training here.

[@theslyrylan]

I'm going out fox hunting!

[@rippedtorn2310]

well i'll sab you and stop you .
