The 50’s had rock ‘n’ roll and Buddy Holly the 60s had rock ‘n’ roll and the Beatles and they always were doing drugs but the 70s now that was a decade to be alive that was the decade that I went from being a teenager to a young man and we blew everybody Out the door if you ever get a chance to watch old Saturday night live with the coneheads and their mass consumption they got the idea from us partiers in the 70s because we didn’t know how to stop partying and there were always drugs.

[@spencer.kissack.the.author]

@@thomasshook1028 lol, yep, drugs every decade it seems. Each decade has certainly had great, great showpiece's of musical excellence. Perhaps I'm 'just getting old' , but it does seem to me that we, as a species, hit our peak, creatively & in just about every other sense, around the marking of year 1999/2000. Most music these days is just crap. O.k, it's my opinion of course. But it is shite. Take for example the James Bond theme musics over the decades; imo since the 90's they've been utter crap. Billie eilish? We'd've been better off asking kool & the gang to reform. Or Led Zep to pen something in 2 or 3 minutes....

@@ivanrorick church

[@allthebanter9316]

@@ivanrorick this is a very peculiar take, what with most of what they’re preaching for in this still being within the youth culture consciousness, furthermore most of these issues aren’t particularly “fratty”, it’s pretty punk, last I checked rich white frat boys aren’t disobeying their parents and being threatened with homelessness, for example. I gather it’s more you wanted to steer a song about rebellion against the modern youth rebellion, because it’s rebellion against you now, like how this was you rebelling against your parents in the 80s/90s

This has to be the best teenage liberation song of the century.

[@michaelp9107]

Amanda Dixson de la merde, aucune libération la dedans.

[@christinash2235]

Except that it was an ironic satire before Smells Like Teen Spirit was ever spelled out for Gen X. There is SO MUCH subtler satire in the 80s it's embarrassing...you know the Beasties hate this song because people take it literally? They're like...smart dudes.

[@EteSiuleems]

Christi Nash i thought i was the only one to know that

[@karmicobsession1636]

yea their making fun of douch bag party boys who ironically loved this song.

[@RomanticRose111]

I remember when my dad showed me this video for the first time and I thought it was so weird and now it’s a great memory I have with him, I miss him everyday but this song makes me think about him 😂

[@WillyYum55]

[@peteforce]

[@henrym6411]

It's a shame I'll never be able to see these guys live! I've watched plenty of footage and they're awesome live! RIP Adam Yauch!

[@WolfenSköll-Mountains]

Anyone listening in 2024?? If you were a rebellious boy of the 80s, this wonder was a representative anthem for all those who lived through a fun and unbeatable decade, you know it friend!

[@045jerson7]

I was born in 1999 but I still relate 😊

[@FishpondsLady]

Or a girl! I remember my best friend's 18th in 1994. I asked my parents if we could have a party as her birthday was the day before mine. They said no. But my friend's parents were out of the country so we held it at her house instead. Let's just say a toilet got thrown out of the window.

[@jasonbrown3694]

No doubt, it's my opinion that this is the only song I liked of there's

[@sen5i]

Listened to it when it first came out ...still listening in 2024

[@gaz4840]

we used to travel to away football matches, five of us in one car, when i played football in Culcheth, near Warrington and we used to belt this out all the way there... when we kicked off we were REALLY in the mood..!! Great days.. with Cush, Pete ryder, robbie appleton and mick bickett

[@billybizar]

Saw them performing in Belgium in 1987 , at the very beginning of their career. Their image was no fake. After the gig we went on the street and to our surprise we saw the three of them loading their luggage full of alcoholic beverages on the tourbus. They were clearly drunk but were very kind and signed autographs . You could just feel they were enjoying life and their beginning stardom. RIP Adam. Will love them forever.

[@madjeepernh6834]

Right on brother!!! Rip. Adam!

[@heloisasantosoliveira5017]

Rest in peace MCA even in death your music is still kicking ass man. Thank for the intro into rap back in the day, to you and also Mike D and Ad-Rock.

[@DaKillaOunze]

I'd explain how that doesn't make sense, and you are an idiot, but I'm sure the mostly dead lump of fecal matter you call a brain wouldn't quite understand something as simple as logic.

Rock+rap+beastie boys=masterpiece

[@KimberlyLetsGo]

I wish more rap was like this.

[@LuigiLaker]

@@KimberlyLetsGo This was the very PINNACLE of the rap/rock sound..I'd like to think it's at least slightly more rock than rap, though..you don't have that bad-ass as fuck guitar playing in hip-hop music lol.

[@pjohnsonXX]

@@LuigiLaker "you don't have that bad-ass as fuck guitar playing in hip-hop music" , your clearly uneducated in the matters of hip-hop so i'll school you kid. You might wanna check these out... 1. Run Dmc - Rock Box & King Of Rock 2. The Diplomats - Ground Zero & The Dipshitz 3.T.I. - Ready For Whatever 4. Young Black Teenagers - Time To Make The Doughnaugtz 5. Dmx - Problem 6. Ice - T - It Go's Off [Party People] Just to name a few...hip-hop is more than capable of using guitars when it want's or need's to. Here ends the lesson...Peace.

[@chanceForNotBeingRapper]

Lil Uzi made an album based on rock rap formula, but it's just different from the classics. Beastie Boys hits different for different generations

[@moneyonfleek1992]

@@KimberlyLetsGocus the rock gene is dead white citizens count for half of hip hop sales lol just look in the crowd at a rap festival.. rolling loud specifically

I ran with brothers like this in the 80s. It was a TRUE rainbow coalition of fun,drunkenness, blunt smoking, music and friendship. Black, white, latino, it didn't matter... we were a crew and brothers 1st and foremost!!!! I miss the vibe of that time. So much hate today. PEACE.
