2:32
I feel like maybe today will be
2:34

2:36
like that's what I'm saying substitute
2:38
teacher I was just going to say it's
2:40
like now you get to do what you want in
2:42
the
2:43
classroom not nobody's going to tell you
2:45
to sit down nobody we just do whatever
2:47
we want to do here but but welcome to
2:49
the show and we're so thankful to have
2:51
you guys here definitely definely
2:53
appreciate it I was telling some of the
2:55
crew here Tracy and and Mike Muse and
2:58
and that's Kanani our intern here in the
3:00
corner and torch and Drew and DB here I
3:02
was telling everybody it's so
3:04
interesting how I remember when the
3:07
Beasty Boys came out for me just being a
3:09
hip-hop head I remember being so
3:12
fascinated by Run DMC and I was like
3:15
wait a minute they have another group
3:17
there's another group that came out of
3:19
that whole circle and now the kids that
3:21
I'm going to school with and I'm seeing
3:23
they're talking about the Beasty Boys
3:25
and we're screaming and we're going to
3:26
Madison Square Garden and we're yelling
3:28
Run DMC to watch you guys coexist and
3:32
support each other was just something
3:33
new for me in and well we wasn't really
3:36
calling it hip-hop it was like rap you
3:38
know for rap back then what was it like
3:40
for you guys just for me just curious on
3:43
the outside looking in trying to get
3:45
into the rap game what was it like for
3:46
you guys coming in at that time well I
3:48
think I don't want to cut you
3:52
off no I just think um thank you for
3:55
mentioning rund DMC because that
3:57
obviously for us that was like the huge
3:59
huge influence I mean we grew up as kids
4:01
in New York City just like probably not
4:03
disimilar you you grew up in Jersey JY
4:06
so it was like every time anything we
4:08
could get that was rap we would get it
4:11
and we just memorize every record every
4:14
yeah I memorize every word to every
4:16
record you listen to because there
4:18
weren't that many rap records right and
4:20
then Run DMC I feel like in that there
4:23
was a pivotal moment when when like
4:26
sucker MC's came out when nobody had
4:30
we never heard anything that radical
4:32
black white purple what I don't care it
4:36
was just a radical moment in music where
4:38
you never heard anything that stripped
4:40
down and that powerful and then that it
4:43
was like a you literally you snap your
4:46
fingers and then it was coming from
4:47
every car every radio everywhere in New
4:52
York you or who knows I I don't even
4:54
know where else cuz we were only in New
4:56
York City at that time but anyway so for
4:58
us that was such such a profound
5:00
influence and then the fact that we got
5:02
then access in and like we got to watch
5:05
them record at Green Street and like wow
5:08
you know just to get and get to go on
5:10
tour like we went on when they were
5:13
doing the raising H tour we were the
5:14
like the little baby rap group playing
5:17
at like before wait after time x social
5:21
club or before you know we were
5:25
before before
5:28
roaches wait stop oh rumors sorry wow
5:32
now I'm going to have well no there was
5:34
roaches that was the response record to
5:36
rumors rumors I remember I remember all
5:38
of those songs I definitely remember
5:40
because sucker MC's is the song I always
5:42
say say to everybody I remember having
5:44
it on cassette tape like five times in a
5:47
row with commercials or from the radio
5:49
just hitting record and listening to it
5:51
over and over again because for me
5:53
that's when rap switched to hip-hop when
5:56
sucker MC's dro the Cadence something
5:58
changed it was no
6:01
longer the beat
6:04
was it was aggressive it was loud and it
6:07
changed everything for me that's what I
6:09
wanted to emulate um when when I heard I
6:12
love but for us too I mean for everybody
6:15
right that's the thing it was so so
6:17
radical it just it g changed as
6:19
Grandmaster Cass would say Chang the
6:21
game so we when we first started we were
6:23
a punk rock group right Beast of wood
6:26
was a punk rock group oh okay um and we
6:29
love listening to rap music but the rap
6:32
music in the early days was a live band
6:35
really really great musicians slick um
6:38
guitars and bass and drums and
6:40
percussion and all of that it was
6:42
foreign to us in that we would never be
6:44
able to do that because we were shitty
6:46
musicians do you know what I mean and so
6:50
and so we were a punk rock band and then
6:52
something about sucker MC's was like the
6:55
by far the most Punk rap song that had
6:58
ever come out wow wow and so that that
7:01
song and that group made total sense to
7:05
us to do to follow the path that we
7:07
wanted to follow when we became a rap
7:08
group when did you first hear it do you
7:10
remember when you first heard suck I was
7:12
at my friend's frozed stand on 57th
7:14
Street like every day in the summer when
7:16
that song was out wow so I don't know
7:18
the first time but I remember every day
7:20
trying to get free froz
7:23
AES and yeah just listening to radio wow
7:26
the Beasty Boys are here 888 742 2 3 345
7:30
you want to talk to him it's live y'all
7:31
Tracy G yeah you know you guys are as
7:35
much a symbol of New York culture as
7:37
like the Statue of Liberty and when I
7:40
was younger in my opinion which is
7:42
French but okay right
7:44
right it's been here for a longer time
7:47
than it's been in France but you
7:49
understand what I'm saying like when I
7:50
was younger I was I grew up in the
7:52
suburbs of New York and Rockland County
7:54
and I've just been obsessed with the
7:55
city ever since I can remember and
7:57
that's because what really drew me in a
7:59
which I feel like you guys encapsulate
8:01
is rebellion and I think really
8:03
embracing individuality and so now to
8:07
bring this full circle on Saturday you
8:09
guys are going to be unveiling beasty
8:11
boy Square which is the place where um
8:15
for Paul's Boutique the album cover was
8:17
shot and going back to 1989 you know the
8:21
amount of times that I've read about
8:23
this album and how when it initially
8:25
dropped it wasn't as embraced or
8:29
celebrated you know as it is now it
8:31
really had a Snowball Effect and earlier
8:34
this morning and in general we often
8:36
speak about the power of patience and
8:39
sometimes you know what you plant on the
8:41
first day doesn't Bloom on that first
8:44
day where you guys worried that this
8:47
wasn't going to be as successful as
8:49
eventually became like what's your been
8:51
your relationship with delayed
8:53
gratification I think it is a little bit
8:57
like a little bit opposite in the sense
8:59
that you know like Adam said we came we
9:01
were like these like punk rock kids and
9:03
then we just love rap music just seemed
9:06
like that much more radical it just
9:08
meant that much more to us than than
9:10
anything so we just wanted to do that
9:12
and then we got to start doing it and
9:14
then it was just like we're kind of like
9:16
in the room like looking each like wow
9:17
we get to be here with like now we just
9:20
met run you know Joe Run from Run DMC oh
9:22
wow now we get to watch them record oh
9:24
wow now we get to you know then and then
9:27
so we didn't have
9:29
I mean I give I guess props to like sort
9:32
of Rick Rubin and Russell Simmons in the
9:34
sense they had this this idea of like
9:36
Commercial Success we kind of just were
9:39
in the place or the mindset of wanting
9:42
to make what we wanted to make right and
9:44
then thankfully we got to do that and
9:46
then and um yeah so I don't think we
9:50
that wasn't like the and you know we did
9:52
we we enjoyed it but we didn't that
9:54
wasn't like the the goal the goal right
9:57
focused on Crea we so great we get here
9:59
we get to actually rap with like with
10:03
our friends and make records that that
10:07
was the and be a band that was the the
10:10
thing and then I always remember there
10:11
was like this moment I remember like we
10:12
had the cassette sorry I'm going to make
10:14
myself seem real damn old now but it's
10:17
just facts where technology was at
10:19
people that's where it was yeah um so I
10:21
remember we had like the advanced
10:23
cassettes of every you know everybody
10:24
else's albums and we had finally then we
10:27
get the moment of like we get the Def
10:29
Jam Advanced cassette of like licens ill
10:31
and I'm in Run from Run dmc's car BMW at
10:35
the time which was a big deal for like
10:38
real big deal for like you know to have
10:40
like a BMW anyway yes we're driving and
10:44
he starts he you know Joe run is very um
10:49
what's the word I for he's
10:52
crazy the word I'm looking for crazy a
10:55
lot of frantic a lot of frantic energy
10:59
from the man at least at the time you
11:01
know you know this is a long time ago so
11:03
a lot of friend and he's like going
11:05
through the cassette and like playing
11:06
different songs like he plays like T you
11:08
know few bars of this fast forward plays
11:11
you know brass
11:13
mon hit Smash It and I'm like I'm
11:16
sitting there like a very surreal moment
11:18
for me cuz I'm here's basically my rap
11:20
idol yeah telling me that like this this
11:23
cassette that we made is going to be a
11:25
hit you know what I mean so very cool
11:28
wow m so the interesting thing about
11:29
Paul's Boutique is that so we had made
11:31
License to Ill album before that that
11:33
was our first like full full album and
11:36
that sold millions of copies and we were
11:38
the fight for your right to party guys
11:40
and it was like this big thing and it we
11:43
don't really set out to do that as Mike
11:45
was saying we just wanted to make music
11:47
but it turned into this whole other
11:49
thing that happens sometimes in life the
11:51
thing you set out to do maybe turns into
11:53
this other thing that you weren't
11:55
planning or expecting which is its own
11:58
thing
11:59
and so we wanted to just time to
12:01
ourselves we wanted to make music we
12:02
didn't want to go on tour we don't want
12:03
to do anything thing so we made Paul's
12:05
Boutique album and I guess people didn't
12:07
really like it as much I don't know but
12:10
it it didn't matter we make some
12:13
different [ __ ] like let's be
12:15
real no there was one thing there was
12:17
one thing that was upsetting about it
12:18
and I'll get to that but so we were
12:21
proud of it we loved it we had so much
12:22
fun making it and you know we we had
12:25
just made money from this crazy record
12:27
that we didn't expect and so we like
12:28
literally didn't have jobs was [ __ ]
12:30
awesome of course so so that people
12:32
didn't buy okay whatever we we were
12:34
proud of it mhm but and I'll just say
12:37
this real quick and we've said this
12:38
before the one the only thing that was a
12:39
bummer about that Paul's Boutique record
12:41
is right before it was coming out around
12:43
the time was coming out was when [ __ ]
12:44
De La Soul um 3 feet high and RIS came
12:47
out oh man we're like they did that we
12:49
were trying to do that did it oh man
12:54
yeah I totally get it it's true no that
12:56
wasn't thank you for mentioning that no
12:57
it was a profound moment like I just
12:59
remember sitting in the what was it a
13:01
record plant in La we were working on
13:03
Paul's Boutique and then here again
13:05
going back to the cassette here in the
13:06
advance we just listened to the advanced
13:08
cassette 3et high in res I was just like
13:11
you know the thing where you're like
13:12
you're really happy and at the same time
13:16
you're just like completely
13:18
gutted oh yeah those two was like this
13:22
record is so [ __ ] good yeah and [ __ ]
13:25
that's what we were supposed to be
13:27
that's this is what we've been spending
13:28
the last Year trying to do how did that
13:31
that you know I mean in the end it all
13:33
worked out you know and then you look at
13:35
89 as a year for rap music and it's like
13:38
three feet high and Rising came out Paul
13:40
comes out um nation is it nation of
13:44

13:48
bdp down

13:58
wait I actually never understood what
14:00
that term Watershed year what does that
14:02
mean I don't know why do people say that
14:04
what is a big marking like a big
14:07

14:09
something you're educated what what's
14:11

25th anniversary it was released July
15:13
4th
15:14
1998 Mike musees you had a question yeah
15:18
I did I didn't know you guys were punk
15:19
rock prior to rap I only saw all you
15:22
guys as rap um but I have an interest in
15:25
the examination of punk rock as like
15:27
counterculture so say hands the
15:29
instrumentation that you guys didn't
15:30
have did you guys see a symbiotic
15:32
relationship between rap and punk rock
15:35
that allowed such a seamless transition
15:37
we we used to say that that rap and punk
15:41
were the same thing but just different
15:43
different outfits we just wore different
15:45
clothes yeah yeah but you know clearly
15:47
obviously there's a lot of nuance to
15:48
that but yes you know an attitude it's
15:51
like for for young people is like [ __ ]
15:54
[ __ ] the older generation this is what
15:55
we like this is what we listen to this
15:58
is who who we are this is what we're
15:59
about dang so how is it now being the
16:02
older generation oh it sucks man it
16:05
sucks my back is killing me my God fight
16:10
for your right to sit down oh my mying
16:14
you guys said his back hurt on that note
16:19
like M had to follow up you no I was
16:21
going to go a little bit further but I
16:22
think a lot of people may not know the
16:24
genre of punk rock and so I was going to
16:25
ask you if you can kind of unpack a
16:27
little bit like what is the RO of like
16:29
punk rock let me just say one quick
16:31
thing the band The Clash was a huge
16:33
inspiration for us
16:35
because one they were the greatest what
16:38
was the T-shirt said the greatest band
16:39
alive or the band that matter the only
16:41
that matters tag right the only that
16:42
matters but they were a punk gr but they
16:44
were really influenced by regga and so
16:46
they played a lot of different styles of
16:48
music based on the influence that they
16:49
listen to from from the city they're
16:52
from you know all of their experience in
16:54
life and so we for some reason we
16:56
gravitated towards that m
16:59
and you know the Ramones because they're
17:00
from New York or whatever but the
17:02
class that's a BL um that's a major key
17:06
Ramon are a major key like seriously
17:10
like building maor key alert yes yeah
17:13
has a
17:15
throwback yes um no but no and also
17:19
sorry going back to the punk rock thing
17:21
I think it was funny like growing up in
17:23
New York City it was like I think that's
17:25
one of the things we tried to like that
17:27
that's one of the reason it made us want
17:28
to write that the book that we did is we
17:31
could only have come done what we did
17:34
because we happen to be here in New York
17:36
City at like a specific time where now
17:39
of course whatever it's different
17:41
everybody can access every bit every
17:44
nanc of music ever made in time that
17:48
exists in some digital form everybody
17:50
can access it all the time right but
17:52
then it was like where all this music
17:55
New York City was the only place in the
17:56
world where you had like Latin music uh
18:00
H whatever was rap hip-hop uh Soul R&B
18:05
everything Jazz every exactly it was all
18:08
you know and you had all this like new
18:10
wave post like Po kind of like post punk
18:13
bands like the slits and New Order and
18:16
all this stuff that would come through
18:17
and then you started to have like there
18:18
started to be this like and you had like
18:20
all this dance music came from like
18:23
paradise garage and all this stuff and
18:24
then you had clubs that where it was
18:26
like it all kind of could a lot of it
18:28
could live together you know whether it
18:30
was like liquid liquid or ESG or um
18:35
sucker MC's good you know craft work
18:38
like it could all get played in the same
18:40
DJ set which is pretty wild now when you
18:43
think about how like broken off into
18:44
like different sections music can get
18:47
yeah it was it it could also like all
18:49
live together for a brief moment in time
18:51
so it was a pretty like magical thing
18:54
but anyway that so that's that and also
18:56
then there was like this New York City
18:58
hard
18:59
scene of was the most like stripped down
19:02
punk rock like hard like hardcore and
19:05
there was an incredible band that was
19:06
from uh DC but then moved to New York
19:10
called The Bad Brains and that they
19:11
could really play like we wanted to be
19:13
able to play but like the Bad Brains
19:15
were really like proficient at their
19:17
instruments and really good players and
19:19
they they was just really powerful and
19:21
so that like we saw that it was kind of
19:23
like seeing like Run DMC where we were
19:25
like damn we want to do that you know
19:28
like so anyway thank thank you for
19:31
breaking that down DB um first I want to
19:33
give a shout out to Daniel masteran
19:35
because she's the one doing the painting
19:36
of the Paul's Boutique um mural down on
19:39
Rivington so um she's really excited and
19:41
she's such a big fan and so I've been
19:43
talking with her about the whole event
19:44
tomorrow and everything like that and um
19:46
for her uh it's sort of like you you
19:49
understand the fandom of just like I
19:51
never thought I would have an
19:52
opportunity to paint a mural of one of
19:54
my favorite groups you know what I mean
19:55
and you guys have talked about what it
19:57
was like to be with Rundy C you know you
19:59
had Chuck the L Cool J um uh give you
20:01
the uh induction to the Rock and Roll
20:03
Hall of Fame so just those moments where
20:05
it's just like you you you never think
20:07
that you'll cross path like I'm just
20:09
talking to you today I can think of
20:10
watching fight for your right to party
20:12
in my my mom's house you know what I
20:13
mean so um but I bring that up because
20:16
would you say the music video was very
20:18
critical to your success because I think
20:20
about those videos and the songs
20:21
themselves as both being
20:24
memorable yeah definitely I mean yeah
20:27
fight for the party where they played it
20:29
all the time on whatever MTV or whatever
20:31
was the thing then um I think seeing
20:34
seeing bands you know and had had a lot
20:37
to do with you know modern music success
20:41
right I mean 80s bands I don't know
20:43
because you could package an image and
20:45
you know I'm sure there were like focus
20:47
groups you know for record companies of
20:49
like how to Market it and sell it and
20:50
they dress the bands up to whatever
20:52
videos were huge MH I don't know what
20:54
videos do anymore H now well now it's
20:57
just different right cuz how much much
20:58
time do you have to you know go through
20:59
your phone and see stuff whatever but um
21:02
I mean I think then it's funny I was
21:04
just having lunch with a friend of mine
21:05
and we were talking about that time like
21:07
we we definitely were the kids that grew
21:09
up with like M like MTV I would get home
21:12
from school and turn on MTV like you
21:15
would too like it's just and I'm not
21:17
even it's just like it was yeah that's I
21:20
remember when we got cable TV and was
21:22
like this is I'm it's that MTV thing
21:24
that people are talking about likeand
21:27
new like ex and you just like whatever
21:29
you just have it on you like pick up the
21:32
hardwired phone call your friends like
21:35
so it's just that was the the [ __ ] that
21:36
was on in the background it's funny and
21:39
I think when it started it was actually
21:41
all this like it was more for some
21:43
reason it was more British music like I
21:45
think they they were the English were
21:47
better at like making these short films
21:49
and they had it and then like then the
21:53
like the kind of the Michael Jackson's
21:55
and the Dancing On The Ceiling
21:58
like no but I'm a lot of Dan no but I do
22:02
think when you had like that was like
22:04
game changers and you had like people
22:06
like Michael Jackson was like oh you
22:08
we're we can make movies now like I'm
22:10
gonna I can own this that was a moment
22:12
you would run home for that so anyway my
22:14
point then when we first put out like
22:16
like hold it now hit it was like one of
22:18
the first like records we put out on Def
22:20
Jam as and it was just a 12in and nobody
22:22
knew what we looked like and that
22:24
actually that had like this big impact
22:26
cuz people just knew the the music
22:28
but they didn't know we were white they
22:31
didn't know who we were you know they
22:33
just didn't nobody knew what what it was
22:37
and we' like show up and do shows and
22:39
people be like oh that's them okay and
22:42
then I already bought my tiate then with
22:45
the videos that changed everything right
22:47
CU then it was like all of a sudden all
22:48
these people yeah just that that
22:51
switched that all wow we played we
22:53
played a show in high school with was it
22:55
just ice just ice and it was right when
22:57
holding i h it was was on the radio
22:59
Latoya just I yeah Latoya J ice 100% And
23:03
so we played it in high school and the
23:04
song started and people so got excited
23:07
oh this that song on the radio and then
23:08
we came out everybody's like what is
23:12
