To me, and I am genuinely trying not to be an arse.... but more like Adidas and Air Walks.
But in general, and I am sure you are aware as a long time Beastie fan... they tool'd on things that weren't their style or mix of culture. 311 was never Hip Hop - not just in sound or style - but in culture. Even if their logo/brand utilized graffiti style font. It just wasn't.
So, the fact that they borrowed a bit of Hip Hop/Reggae/Ska flavor to complete their style - , left them open a bit.
Just my dumb opinion!
