I wonder if Three MC's And One DJ was wrtitten for Hurricane?

I was just reading the HN inlay and he is credited for it. Just wondering...

[Kid Presentable]

I always figured he'd come up with the hook sometime prior to leaving, or been responsible for a couple of the lyrics. Although, it could be something as convoluted as the "To" part (Bug out to...) having come from Four Fly Guys.

Album version>>>>>>Live Version. IMO afaik tbh

[AceFace]

video version >>>>> than album version.

i read something once where mix master came up with the idea for the music portion. they loved the idea and went off for a couple hours and returned with the whole song written. MMM was impressed by their writing abilities.

i think i read that in an article posted on mic to mic.

I think the album version is a lot better than the live version. Live version is too fast.

yeah I'm with you on the hook part. Maybe the song was something that was dropped off IC or something they worked on whilst working on the sonics of HC.

Sweet and sour like a tangerine
Fresh like a box of Krispy Kremes
Kenny Rogers' "Gambler" is my gambling theme
Hurricane with the scratch routine

Hmmmm...

"I had this idea for "Three MCs and One DJ": What if I just cut a beat, and [the Beasties] rhymed over it? It would be the first time ever in history with a DJ cutting the drums. I was fucking around, doing some tricks in the studio, and Yauch was like, It would be sick if we could rhyme over that. So we just did it in three hours. They left, and me and Mario laid down the music for it while they went to write rhymes" - Mix Master Mike

That shit's already common knowledge. beastiemania acts as an archive once again. :|

Anybody actually know why Wendell Fite is credited on this song?

[Extra Cheese]

MMM thought it was wack when it was in the building stages for that song.
