18 July 2023

Hip-rap-hop-rock heroes BEASTIE BOYS topped the UK Albums Charts
with their 5th longplayer HELLO NASTY, on this day 25 years ago.

ROLLING STONE wrote: “Imagine a sonic mix that’s about sixty-five to seventy percent the frenetic, sample-crazy hip-hop eclecticism of Paul’s Boutique and about twenty-five to thirty percent the funk-punk fun of III Communication. The Beasties, as innovative musicians and good citizens, contribute more to the hip-hop community than a lot of MCs.”
Score: 4/5.

ROLLING STONE wrote: ‘With their fifth proper album, a playfully mature Beastie record
(if that’s possible), they turn the focus back toward hip-hop — there’s not one hárdcore punk song here, but with an understanding of how to conflate their two largest influences into one smooth-flowing package. Imagine a sonic mix that’s about sixty-five to seventy percent the frenetic, sample-crazy hip-hop eclecticism of Paul’s Boutique and about twenty-five to thirty percent the funk-punk fun of III Communication. The Beasties, as innovative musicians and good citizens, contribute more to the hip-hop community than a lot of MCs.”
Score: 4/5 – Full review here
