They were used mainly for sports guys. Some was snap clips others were Velcro strips. They were big then and every kid had a pair. Us girls got creative with them.
This song came out when I decided that I was suffering from bipolar one disorder. Kind of knew as much as the lady who played a twin. I won’t say her name. Had a similar bad life with tons of verbal abuse and still angry , but alive.😬

I cannot express enough how completely wonderful dynamic these 3 have with each other and I totally grew up with this shit always playing. It was my first concert at the age of 14 and I had such a crush on adrock and I was so close to the stage ny mom was all pissed that I came home smelling like beer. They are a gift to humanity. I have a tattoo of a microphone and mca info on my wrist. There will never be anyone else that has been a good thing for so long in my life. I see adrock doing interviews and hes just so. Normal and hes like my age now and hes an awesome storyteller. Rip forever mca. You three have been so amazing for so long and everyone read the book. It's paranormal. Will always and forever play it loud and proud.

Dude I just discovered this song a few days ago and I'm 15! Hope you know other generations are finding out about you and you will forever go down in history
When the hits were played in the clubs before they came on the radio.. This song will always remind me of The Fun House and the Ball Buster crew. N.Y.C
Heyyyyy, why did people downvote this video?! It was great! A bunch of energetic kids paying homage to the great Beastie Boys, it was great to watch, ffs.
There's bots that go around and all they do is dislike videos, it happens all the time, and plus there's the trolls who want to be the first to dislike.
I'm 49. I grew up in the era of The Beastie Boys....they were awesome and huge back then. I still love to listen to them! music videos have come a long way since then.....
I graduated high school in 88, I always thought I missed out on the 60's and 70's, but the the world got so I am sooooo happy to have grown up then. No phones and no cameras everywhere. You left the house and your parents had no idea where you were and we had parties like in the movies.
My step dad let me listen to this at the age of 4. My mom did not like that. When she left the car he would play this and when she got back she would be so mad because he would replay this over and over again. Those were the good times
D'Artangan Oswald Are you so pathetic that put people down because they REMEMBER things from their school days? Do you have a very low IQ and/or excessive drug use? Let me know if you need me to explain what that means.
I need you to explain it. In great detail. Hopefully your science teacher taught you more life lessons and values that you've held onto to this day, because you're still mentally 15 years old, or you've never had anyone else that's cared about you. Science teacher role model. He said it so it must be true.
D'Artangan Oswald Wow, you are buying too much Psyche B.S. Have a nice life and treat people with respect(if that's even possible for you) or at least don't judge them by one sentence!
+D'Artangan Oswald i remember things my history teacher taught me, it means he was a good teacher.. you're the loser.. and my mom and dad were together and i had plenty of role models, so suck it..
Man, "Brass Monkey" by The Beastie Boys is a happy song & Rap built to last forever ya'll. These guys cheer us up with phat beats, fly dance moves, style, & a fun, positive message, always now. I have been jamming to Brass Monkey since high school & this tune just pumps you up. These guys have so much fun and they put they all into it aroaa, man, and it shows. With a tune that literally lasts forever. The Beastie Boys "timeless" records & tunes will be around, always, regardless of all always, thanks to them, they Record Label, RUclips, & the Music business and the Internet. Class, we all cannot afford to lose our "life's work", no matter what it is at School, aroaa, so..we don't lose it aroaa. We are building more & more memory & ways to preserve it aroaa. Duplication & numerous back-ups of all of your work is so important, get into the habit of making copies of all of it. RUclips does, the Internet does, Record labels do, and we all do too. Its 100% total insanity aroaa if we ever lose it, all that hard work, thousands of hours of training & work, and so we never do lose it.

The boys' choir was lit.
I remember when I used to rock out to this song in my carseat.
My mom said this was her jam whenever she went roller skating 😂
Yeah, roller skate and blade rinks had the best 80s and early 90s music to skate in a circle to.
Mi jam too.
OMG THANK YOU FOR 120 LIKES :O
My dad said that exact same thing-
Omggg yassss lol my mom said the same thing LOL
Grew up loving Beastie Boys music. This song brings back memories. Time flies. RIP MCA.
After all these years that beat is still killing it! One of the coldest beats of all time!
These are the original “white bois”
This is great. I grew up listening to these guys in the 80’s when I was a teenager and I still can’t get enough
you know it's not the real BB>??
Verbally abusive people call people hostile
Why would someone dislike brass monkey
There probably a sociopath if they don't
They probably hit there head
Godzilla fans
People who evolved to crab instead of returning to monke
some men just want to watch the world burn
When the hits were played in the clubs before they came on the radio.. This song will always remind me of The Fun House and the Ball Buster crew. N.Y.C
1:25 I believe they created parkour! This song was released in 86!
@feeshy gaming amen
I thought release during late 90s I guess not
@spino sure it wasn't bud
@shy rayquaza better than I can lol
This isn't the official video
This joint still rocks! We used to go roller skating and when this song came on, we was rolling lol
If u still listening to this you definitely an triple OG
They did such a great job putting this together ahah!
10 years and I’m still jamming
my friend always came to school like “BRASS MONKEY THAT FUNKY MONKEY” AND IT WOULD ALWAYS BE SO FUNNY
My dad made me listen to this when I was really little and it turned out my favorite song to this day
SAME LOL
Me too

When you teacher lets you be in groups of 3 with your friends:
i love it that this is still on youtube....i forgot about it for years until now.

There's bots that go around and all they do is dislike videos, it happens all the time, and plus there's the trolls who want to be the first to dislike.
Because they didn't title it appropriately - making it click-bait garbage.
Right tho!!!
C. Word did you use Reddit downvote on RUclips...

this is what happens when low budget meets high creativity.
