Dead :: RIP MCA

Pauls boutique was brilliant , one of the best albums I ever heard for samples. Great videos and great film makers, Brilliant band.

Sad most people will only remember fight for your right to party . He was such a creative guy in film and music, their videos still crack me up. RIP Adam.

Sabatoge is one of the greatest videos of all time

Fixed.




There will never be another group like Beastie Boys. It was a good ride watching them grow and mature as musicians.

My mom took me to see them on the 'Licensed to ill' tour when I was 10. Could have seen them 15 times since then, but kept putting it off.

Beastie boys at pompeii. "This video is dedicated to all the people who lost their lives at pompeii"

[JMobile]

I consider Paul's Boutique one of the most underrated albums of all time. It's sort of a blessing and a curse that it came out at a time when very few people could recognize how brilliant it was because it sounded nothing like anything that was popular at the time.

I was trying to find Egg Man but I couldn't find a decent video for it so I'll post this song instead...

[gregm]

Eggman , what a great tune John. What a creative group witht their samples, I found this homemade video of egg man, the lyrics are hilarious.

I looked out the window and seen his bald head
I ran to the fridge and pulled out an egg
Scoped him with my scopes he had no hair
Launched that shot and he was caught out there
Saw the convertible driving by
Loaded up the slingshot and let one fly
He went for his to find he didn't have one
Put him in check correct with my egg gun
The egg a symbol of life
Go inside your house and bust out your wife
Pulled out the jammy he thought it was a joke
The trigger I pulled his face the yoke
Reached in his pocket took all his cash
Left my man standing with an egg moustache
Suckers they come a dime a dozen
And when I say dozen you know what I'm talking about boyee

Yeh, that's right, I'm the Egg Man
Driving Around, King of the town
Always got my windows rolled down
You know, I'm the Egg Man

Once upon a time
Humpty Dumpty was a big fat egg
He was playing the wall and then he broke his leg
Tossed it out the window three minutes hot
Hit the Rastaman he said bloodclot
Which came first the chicken or the egg
I egged the chicken then I ate his leg
Riding the trains in between cars
When I pull out the station you're gonna get yours
Drive by eggings plaguing L.A.
Yo they just got my little cousin ese
Sometimes hard boiled sometimes runny
It comes from a chicken not a bunny dummy
People laugh it's no joke
My name's Yauch and I'm throwing the yoke
Now they got me in a cell but I don't care
It was then that I caught catching people out there

Up on the roof, in my car
Up all night, I'm pulling through signs like Dolomite
The mack, I'm the Egg Man
Taxi Driver, I'm the Egg Man

We all dressed in black we snuck up around the back
We began to attack the eggs did crack on Haze's back
Sam I am down with the program
Green eggs and ham Yosemite Sam
Come Halloween you know I come strapped
I throw it at a sucker K-pap
You made the mistake you judge a man by his race
You go through life with egg on your face
You woke up in the morning with a peculiar feeling
You looked up and saw egg dripping from the ceiling
Families puck rocks the businessman
I'll dog anybody with an egg in my hand
Not like the crack that you put in a pipe
But crack on your forehead here's a towel now wipe

Here is the video from their live concert in scotland, how can you not love a rap band and a dj that samples rush, the sample is at the 1:10 mark

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Awesome band. RIP, champ.

[ChuckyTheGoat]

47 is far too young to lose a Beastie Boy.
