I can't help but think that If the bboys circa 1992 - 1996 (when they were more of an alternative act) had just dropped CYH and then IC right now it would have had a larger audience today than back then.

When I was at high school (92-97) everyone was into dance and pop. I was in a group of about five guys who listened to music with guitars, old school hip hop and grunge. I was constantly goaded by my taste in music. Today it seems like every kid is into the alternative scene, there are to many too mention.

I think they would have been embraced by todays generation, instead of them thinking "oh ain't those the guys with that robot song?"

Just a thought...

grunge and alternative was really popular in the 90's

if the beasties wanted to fit in now they would have to: not shower, wear eyeliner, tight jeans, studed belts, converse sneakers, and put out horible music

Brooklyn got it right. If they followed popular trends they would be making some very bad music right now.

My band could've been the biggest in the world if we were more talented

They deserve to get some respect and people should recognise the beastie boys have been through a lot and they are still here and are very nice people compared to some of the hip-hop stars that are a round today.:)

If I had have heard Ill Communication in 94, id still be listening to it today, 12 years later. Best Album Of All Time.
