You might've forgotten just how old the Beastie Boys are, well check this out. First off, the music is basically naked vocals over spare beats (with a hint of a thrashy guitar, which became the Beastie trademark), what we might call the 'early Brooklyn style', DJ Herc-type stuff, long before the rap style hits maturity. And the video itself is one of those static-camera, MC's standing around, chicks in bikinis affairs that almost makes you appreciate how much 'better' videos are now. And, the capper, check out the Rick Rubin cameo--he looks like a little kid! The Beastie Boys were there in the early days of MTV, back when MTV used to play music all day--man that seems like ages ago!--and they've survived. Pretty impressive.
