AD-ROCKs voice is everything

Still one of my ALL TIME FAVORITE BANDS. RIP MCA

Beastie Boys music is "THE" soundtrack to a generation's life.

The beat is out of this world

I love how MCA sets the tone with his first verse, just kills it. Hell, this might be one of the best Beastie songs of them all.

"Everybody's rapping like it's a commercial, acting like life's a big commercial, so this is what I got to say to y'all: be true to yourself and you will never fall."

When some dude randomly throws Adrock a basketball still gets me. You can see on MCA's face that shit wasn't planned. But Adrock just keeps going like it's nothing. Dope AF. RIPMCA

2:00 when Mike D rhymes Commercial with COMMERCIAL, classic!!

the Beastie Boys age like fine wine; shits still dope.

STILL love these guys. NOBODY has even come close to matching them. #RIPMCA

Something I love about the Beastie Boys is that they made music because they wanted to. It's easy to see that they didn't give a shit about money or fame because, to them, it's just 3 friends making music for fun and the money and fame just happened to come with it. If they were nameless nobodies making $6 an hour at Walmart, they'd still be doing the same shit because they love the music and they love each other.

I used to rock this shit in my Walkman stoned af playing Mortal Kombat in the arcade

He'll be layin down bars in heaven, RIP MCA

Seriously what a group, I can't put in to words how unique these cats were, rip MCA 🙌🏻

a masterpiece... Beastie Boys forever

If you weren't around or growing up when Check Your Head came out, you really have no idea how impactful that album was.

Man... I just, I wish we had more music like this today. Beastie Boys were way, ahead of their time. Appreciate these three MC's so much. Thanks for passing the mic.

I love how in-your-face this track is.

Hard to believe it's been so long ago now....I seen these guys for a $15 concert ticket One of the best shows ever 🤘

I've seen skaters shred so bad ass to this song. It's like there's some energy in this song for them.

This is TRUE old school.

I'm still in love with AD-ROCK

When Adrock spells his name and he’s wearing a different outfit for every letter 😂😂

RIP Yauch. Loved that dude. Love all those guys. Genuine people.

His name was MCA and he still does what he pleases

This is the sound of generation X Rest in peace MCA you f****** legend

BE TRUE TO YOURSELF, AND YOU WILL NEVER FALL.

so much ny swag even when he catches the ball at 2:52. love the beastie boys RIP MCA 😢

My 14 year old daughter loves these guys. ADORES Mike D and has memorized so many lyrics. She actually reintroduced me to them.

I love those drums

"Everybody rappin like it's a commercial, acting like life is a big commercial" - Explains every single rapper out right now.

Only the Beastie Boys sample Bad Brains!!! I love this band, and I am so glad I got to see you guys live. You were pioneers and no one has touched you since. R.I.P. MCA

straight up real hip hop.... destroys anything that is out right now...

MCA still in our hearts, because that voice mark our souls

That snare is simply amazing

Beastie Boys didn't suck, they were amazing, people didn't like them cause they couldn't handle the level they were on… They changed the hip hop game with best intentions and succeeded RIP MCA.

MCA hasn't fallen guys. He stayed true to himself. He wont be forgotten. BIP adam

The vibe within them is just insane! Nobody else can handle the rope they have.

Whenever I see Adrock from this era it reminds me I really gotta step my knitwear game up

COULDNT SAY IT ANY BETTER MYSELF!!! THE MEMORIES OF THE SUMMER OF 1992 ARE STILL IMPRINTED IN MY MIND FOREVER!!!!

This was when hip-hop emphasized the snare. Nowadays they have forgotten about the snare. Dat New York snare sound

"be true to yourself and you will never fall" 🍀

My goodness, what fun these young gentlemen were.

"One of Beastie Boys hardest song"🤷🏾‍♂️🔥🔥🔥🔥

This is most definitely one of their best tracks, their interplay and lyrics have always been astounding, here they proven that and their inventiveness once again.

"So This Is What I've Got To Say To You All Be True To Yourself And You Will Never Fall"

"I'm always on time, never the less y'all" Time is of the essence! R.I.P. MCA

10 YEARS #RIPMCA RIP Beastie Boys! :(

MCA's flow was fucking legendary. RIP.

That shot of Mike D with the king behind him is classic.

This is the culture everyone should talk about

you know what? the beastie boyz need to get that credit too for making NÜ METAL happen. just listen to their badass track gratitude.

One of their best songs

My favorite Beastie Boys Song. Be true to yourself and you will never fall.

My fave b-boys jam of all. Fun but ominous. RIP to the great MCA.

Well damn somebody gotta give love to my man Mike D! Always loved these guys, just iconic & genuine. RIP MCA, you are missed!

Paul's Boutique and Check Your Head are 2 amazing albums

Yes. Adam Yauch. You defined a movement in music. Defined a genre and you will be missed

To have been 20 years old when this came out, and already a fan since the beginning in my early teens, I feel truly blessed to have lived during their era, and to have just existed at the same time to experience them too. Cool stuff! The Beastie Boys were their own thing, a blend of punk with hip-hop and rap and rock and the sampling and old school MC style, just super grateful to be here now!

Im still in love with Ad-Rock ❤😅♡☆

I feel blessed to be part of the generation who grew up with the Beastie Boys. MCA... may you rest like you lived, in peace.

Rest in Peace MCA ... Gone but never forgotten.

BE TRUE TO YOURSELF AND YOU WILL NEVER FALL. more upvotes for the tunes that continue to save my life to this day

Adrock always had the most natural swag of the three, but love them all.

These guys have to be the coolest people on KZfaq.

mca it's too cool for this world

MCA rocking his Snowboard pants and Sorrels. You can even see his ski pass on his right leg pocket flapping in the wind What a beauty.

I can't recall how many times I listen to this album. In various states of mind. Truly a perfect work if art! Thank you beastie boys for the influence you were in my life!

Listening to this on a walkman while skating oh the memories!

People often say Paul's Boutique is the best Beasties album but Check Your Head is the best imo. Love the instrumentation and the lyrics

The way Adam points at Adam at 0:30

This was ... is .... and will ALWAYS be Awesome!! It brings back smells, feels, looks, and loves straight to my brain. It pours over me like a waterfall of wonderful memories that become so vivid, I'm really transcended to those exact times and places. This kind of DOPE is as close to a time machine as I'll ever see in my lifetime, and I'm super cool with that. I can only hope my children have just one single song in their lifetime that allows them to feel this. People have misused "Amazing" so often, but this is one of those times where it is completely appropriate. Thank you Beasties, without you, beautiful and rare things like this wouldn't have happened in my lifetime. How could one simple man like me ever repay that? Absolutely phenomenal!!

beastie boys go hard. love their music

I miss the importance of their music in these crazy times. They helped me guide myself through this world since I was 15. Gratitude. 🙏

I'll pass the mic to D for a fist full of truth [Mike D] The name is D, y'all and I don't play And I can rock a block party 'til your hair turns grey So, what you sayin'? I explode on site I’m like Jimmy Walker I’m Dyn-o-mite And now I’d like to pass the mic To Adrock c'mon and do anything you like [Adrock] I’m the A-D-R-O-C-K In the place with the bass I’m going all the way I can't stop, y'all, tock tick, y'all And if you think that you're slick you'll catch a brick, y'all ‘Cause I’mma turn it in and I’mma turn it out But now I’ve got to pass the mic to Yauch [MCA] Well, on and on and on and on I can't stop, y'all 'til the early morn’ So rock rock , y'all, tick tock, y'all To the beat, y'all, c'mon and rock, y'all [Adrock, MCA, & Mike D] I give thanks for inspiration, it guides my mind along the way A lot of people get jealous, they're talking about me But that's just cause they haven't got a thing to say [Mike D] Well everybody rapping like it's a commercial Actin' like life is a big rehearsal (he says commercial in the video but its an accident) So this is what I’ve got to say to you all Be true to yourself and you will never fall And now I’d like to pass the mic to A So what's your name, Yauch?

One of the best Beastie songs from one of the best Beastie albums.

This was only one of five songs I knew from them, but I heard this song at least 100 times. I feel really bad because two days ago, two days after he died, I heard this song and skipped it because I heard it so many times. I can't believe I didn't know he died until yesterday. I wished I never knew he died. Wow I hope they're all doing all right.

I love how they played their own instruments on this album, fuckin sick.

There will never be music like this again. We live in a different world where the definition of "Music " is not what we once knew. This needs to be cherish and shared for the world to hear.

So underappreciated....new school aint shit compared to this...Respect...

love these guys, true to hip hop and came with their own style and no fear, I love adrocks voice

RIP MCA 🖤🎵🤘🏻🧿🌹

This is one of my favorite songs to drop in my car. It's got mad bass, dope lyrics, and killer sound all around.

actin like life is a big commercial... I love my beasties...

License to ill I had on tape in 1985 when I was in 5th grade. Been rocking them ever since.

I for one like the feeling of bass in my face in the crowd

Yeah. Can’t stop. Thanks to the B boys

"Mowing down MC's like I'm mowin a lawn....." (Rip MCA)

Immediately I'm 15 in h.s. skateboarding in the b.k. parking lot. This entire album defined my sophomore year. Best concert too. Henry Rollins and Da Lynch Mob opened for them. I was right up against the stage the entire time basically front row even though it was all g.a. Haven't listened to in years yet I still know all the lyrics.

We all gotta return to b-boys now and again for what are now classic art videos (heralded by musicians from all genres.)

Punk rock, hardcore, hip hop, I played in a few hardcore bands back in the day, and we always started out our sets w some hip hop. love the lyrics of this song! ♥️

This and So Whatcha' Want, this album was just fantastic.

One of the dopest hip hop tracks of all time.

"So rock rock, y'all, tick tock, y'all" Straight fire

This was the first song I put on after I found out that Yauch had passed. I was so mad and sad and overwhelmed. Much love to Beastie Boys, and you, if you're reading this. RIP MCA all day

Beastie Boys's music never get old. The best!!

"Stay true to yourself and you will never fall."

Knowing MCA passed on, it's dope seeing Ad Rock hug him in the beginning of the video!

Happy new year we need beastie boys more than ever
