I heard a song at a bar last night that had two parts the Beastie Boys have sampled:

1. "can you get my drift" - this little sample is in Jimmy James on check your head

2. "b-boy making with the freak freak" - this is the exact sample used in the chorus for the third song on Ill communication

They are both in the same song - anyone know the name of that song?

Do you think I would have known about the use of the samples with such specificity if I wasn't a lifelong Beastie Boys fan?

beat bop is all over ill communication. and what a classic record it is too. its like 7-8 minutes long, produced by Basquiat, got some really good lines in there and is basically a swan song to the new york 'uptown goes downtown' movement. things weren't the same after that record was released.
