![]() Anyone mind filling me in on whats true on the LTI and PB records as far as drugs go? I mean we know they smoked pot, that's in general but did they really do ecstasy ["I had a beautiful experience on ecstasy"] or on the Car Thief demo Mike D's verse "Chewin' on mushrooms and gettin' high"

![]() ![]() The 80's were a crazy, self-indulgent time for all of us (at least those of us who were old enough to be alive back then), and I think a good listen with an open-minded ear (along with some lyric references) is all you'll need to find your answer.

The first record is crap and was only good at the time because it was new.... and I was like 13.. As a 37 year old now, I NEVER listen to that shit.. "Paul's Boutique" is a classic.. "Hello Nasty" is right up there with "Check Your Head".... Why do people always hate on "Ill Communication"?

![]() i would offer that if they had done a shitload of e then the music would have sounded different. only because in the late 80's early 90's that drug was associated with house music/techno scene and if they'd been knockin back the pills chances are they would have been going to raves, so i dont think they did that. just an opinion

I've never done drugs, but I believe that if after being wasted you don't know what the hell you did the other night, then you wouldn't know for sure if you had anything different during the crazy effect. ![]()

LTI is a pretty good album. I don't hate it, but i only really like 3 songs. People act like that album could even compare to the others. Shake your rump and Car Thief beat that whole album. To the 5 boroughs laughs at LTI in it's sleep. and every other album does similar things to LTI... |

![]() In the Paul's Boutique book someone mentions (I think one of the Dust Brothers) that pretty much everyone involved in making PB was on hallucinogens and quite frequently too.

![]() They obviously did weed, shrooms and Yauch was into LSD. I'm sure in the PB 33/3 book, a member of the Dust Brothers says they were smoking a lot of base at the time. Thats pretty hardcore. The boys definitely smoked dust, and if this video is anything to go by, sold dust too.

![]() Adrock started drinking a lot of coffee for a reason.
![]() In my opinion, they never really sensationalized drugs though. At least not comparative to other acts. There's definitely crazy references to drug use but that's life, especially when you're in the music industry, especially in New York in the 80s (lots of dust, heroine, and cocaine) and in LA in the 90s. Dave Scilken died of an overdose in 1991. I'm sure there were other casualties too. After the Ill Comm era you don't hear too much about drugs from them (except weed which, come on, is that really still considered a drug?) The last hard-drug reference I can think of is Four Fly Guys in 1994. |

And LMAO @ that video... "What's the name of the new album??" MCA: "Don't be a faggot!"

![]() Didn't Yauch say in an interview years ago during the Hello Nasty era that they exaggerated their drug use in their old songs? That they never did angel dust or sniffed glue?

![]() Hang on this isn't even an issue - Ad-Rock even has a hidden message on Pauls Boutique where he whispers "take pcp". That message, combined with the previous video I posted, combined with the fact their publishing label is called BROOKLYN DUST MUSIC makes it's pretty obvious that they indeed did smoke dust.

![]() i remember a rolling stone article from "hello nasty" era. MCA saying he's had fans come up to him and say, "i used to smoke so much dust listening to LTI," and MCA going like what the hell i've never smoked dust in my life. who knows/cares, really? I don't think they were like motley crue or anything.
