![]() its really a shame. all you new jacks will never really know. ricky was about the coolest person in that whole crew. All you kids would still be jocking him if he was still friends with the beasties. but they had to be soft little bitches and dis him.

![]() i sometimes regret that the beastie boys lost the edge that they once had. ricky seems to have kept quite a bit of it. oh well, these things happen i guess. the Beasties got so fuckin big. its hard to have that kind of edge when your making music for the whole fuckin world. ricky can still walk down midtown manhattan and not worry bout getting people all in your face

![]() I agree on the whole Ricky Powell being what the Beasties were, and as much as it saddens me to admit it, you can hear it begin to change at the end of 'Transitions'.
I guess we all gotta grow, though...

![]() yup., the new book will be dope. I haven't seen the finished dvd supertape yet. i need to stop by his apt. next week and grab a copy

![]() I'm no expert, but whenever I've seen the stuff of his that was supposed to be funny, it wasn't. But there's no doubt he was once a big part of the scene.

![]() Here's a joke from Ricky's standup...circa 1992.
"Your mother's armpits are soooo hairy, it looks like she has Buckwheat in a head-lock." I can appreciate Ricky's humor but I don't think he evolved with the Beasties. |

![]() Has anyone picked up The Rickford Files? I've been toying with the idea of picking up a copy.
Any reviews? |

I've never read any official comments by any of the Beasties or Ricky on the parting of ways. I don't believe they've taken any shots at him like they do DefJam and Russell. |

![]() Now, I'd give anything to hear Hey Ladies sometime, but I'm in the minority on that one. When the folks here ranked the songs on PB, I think that was the first song kicked off. And unfairly so. Damn you all! And Looking Down the Barrel of a Gun is probably my all-time fav, and they don't do that live, do they? Quote:

![]() fuck all of the negative comments about the beasties changing or losing their cutting edge, they simply did what they wanted throughout their career. it wasn't, and has never been like, 'oh, we've been acting like sexist macho jerks for too long now lets show the world we've chnged...', it was about doing what they felt was right at the time

![]() Chill Dave, I'm glad they do what they feel is right.
As for Paul's, they could play more of it, they just won't. S'all good but... ![]()
