AppleTV has the live show/documentary that Ad Roc and Mike D presented in venues in front of a live audience. Very entertaining. I’ve watched it twice.

Anyone remember the code on NBA Jam where you could play with the Beastie Boys?

This was an amazing video if you've never seen it, Spike Jonze filmed it entirely backwards (there's a making of segment on the video), the song samples the Beastie Boys and Mike D & Ad Rock make cameos

Pharcyde - The Drop

TONS of excellent stuff with the Beasties and more on this DVD

The Work of Director Spike Jonze

Lots of the segments are probably on youtube, but you can probably find it pretty easily for $5-$10 on ebay, amazon, etc with shipping, totally worth it

Reverse 3 & 4 and you've nailed it. The A side of Hello Nasty was some of their best work, but the B side fell a little flat.

But the informercial was hysterical...

This does not get stated enough but the whole rap revolution happened because of midwestern white teens buying it. Rap belongs to white upperclass kids. Rap would be like Motown without white kids. I hope the tatoo faced white kids rapping now return rap to the real culture that made it successful and not "the culture" that sold out to those kids.

thats really the uncomfortable truth about it. Sorry if it offends. Millions of wanksters and wanker made rap possible with their parents money buying CDs.

You comment isn't wrong, but it's not 100% accurate either. Hip Hop is still the anthem of the inner city and plenty of hip hop albums are sold there.

The reason folks can make that assertion is white people make up 60% of the population and African Americana make up 12% of the population. So if 10% of white kids buy hip hop albums and 50% black kids buy the same album, it's the same amount of albums sold. But the PERCENTAGES of folks in the individual populations are vastly different....

hip hop is the anthem of middle school dances, barmitzas, juvy halls, cotillians, and other corny get togethers in affluent America.

Believe it or not, Country music also fits that definition. It's more popular than Pop, adult comtemporary and hip-hop. The only music more popular than country is rock/indie rock.

To think Paul's Boutique and MMMBop were produced by the same duo.


mmmBop is a good song and is Hanson's only really big hit. I liked it when I first heard it and still like it. But I can't say that I can name one other song by the band.

I second this. It was a really good watch and I wish it would have been about an hour longer, since they kind of stop before they get into some of their later stuff. I don't think they covered much after Hello Nasty...

It's fine to like as a guilty pleasure song, it even gets stuck in my head every 5 years or so but it's not really a good song.. I remember my friend that was really into shite like Marilyn Manson & Cradle of Filth wore a Hanson shirt to school that gave me a good laugh and there was a shirt at Spencer's or something that said like "I slept with the girl in Hanson." I don't begrudge them from becoming popular, but it was pretty cheesy and most people that weren't pre-teen girls goofed on them
