The Beastie Boys is my favorite hip-hop group and i have been listening to them for ever. I can remember when i was little my dad use to secrely putt on the License to Ill album when my mom wasn't home because if she found out she would kill my dad.
The Beastie Boys have produced 7 albums and there new album is going to be out in May, 2011. They have currently sold 22 million albums in the U.S. and 40 million worldwide.
My personal favorite is Liensed to Ill. This the first hip hop LP to top the 200Bilboard charts. It is Columbia Records' fastest selling debut record to date and sold over 9 million copies.
This is my favorite ablum because the is literally one song of the album that i do not like. Its a really fun album. That i think is about being young, wild and crazy.
My top favortie songs on the ablum would be:
1)Time to ill
2)Brass Monkey
3)Slow and Low
The Beasite Boys won three grammys for their work. They won Best Perfomence for a rap goup or duo for their hit Intergalactic in 1999, Best Alternative Performence for Hello Nasty in 1999, and Best Pop Instrumental Album for The Mix up in 2008. They have been voted #77 in The Rolling Stones for 100 Greatest artisit of all time.
It would be a my dream to see the Beastie Boys live. They are my number one band that i wish i could see live.
