But what happened to the Beasties? They fell off big time. Their rhymes got weak. They even released another instrumental album called the MixUp—and I loved In Sounds From Way Out—and even that sounded kind of tired.

Pauls is an awesome album and I still play it.

Paul's Boutique was so different from Licensed to Ill which is almost a novelty album...I mean they opened up for Madonna in 1985...Paul's then came out and is really like alterna-punk-rap. It set the tone for the rest of their career where they became trend setters rather than trend followers.

MURDER JUNKIE

Most of you are far to young to appreciate how sweet hip hop was in the 80's and early 90's, anybody's songs were public domain to use as samples which created a limitless backdrop to any MC's rhymes no matter how much money you had you had a limitless supply of background for you to drop the hard rhymes without paying royalties to other artists. Just imagine for a second what P. Diddy pays to use 1 song in his ridiculous "music" and then imagine for a second what it would cost to make Paul's Boutique song by song. If you need help check out the song by song sample reference here : Beastie Boys’ Paul’s Boutique Samples and References List


This is one of the very last albums where hip-hop was truly free
