I was listening to the '99 Glasgow show and noticed the alternate beat that MMM dropped for Time To Get Ill sounded really familiar (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJYfOGb3sKw&t=1954s)
It reminds me a lot of Desperado, but seems to have an extra crash cymbal. Also I assumed the instrumental for Desperado isn't something they'd want to bust out, but maybe I'm wrong.
Any ideas?

P.S.K. What Does It Mean? - Schoolly D (https://youtu.be/m1mn9m_1h5U)

You're instincts are about right because Scenario is basically the Beasties copying Schoolly D (P.S.K.), and the Desperado beat is another play on that same style.

YOOOOO! Alright, I generally don't know much about anything, but I swear while I was pondering this yesterday I thought "This sounds like it could be Schoolly D or something."
BB message board with another one. Thanks everyone.

Also, I don't think MMM can take all the credit for using it.
Hurricane used it for the new style during his last show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sYbYoWopeE
