It would seem I can't reason with anyone here.

Let's agree to disagree.

Instead of dissing The Prodigy concentrate on enjoying The Beastie Boys music. I will continue to like the music of both The Prodigy and The Beastie Boys.

Time for everyone to let this topic rest in peace.

i think the prodigy quote from Reading '98 goes something like "we got a call from the beasties the other day day asking not to play one of our dongs....well we do what the fuck we want!"

which is fair enough because the beasties WERE in the wrong.

I read somewhere that Liam Howlett refuses to play big venues (like in manchester) bacause its not what the prodigy are about and loses what what they were about or something, im guessing thats why they did 2 nights at manchester apollo and not 1 night at the Manchester evening news arena.

personally i think the new prodigy album is fuckin brilliant! but thats my opinion.

prodigy alubm got to number 1 in the UK, but didnt in the US. i read somewhere that liam howlett dissed the record label(different from prodigy's UK label) saying they didnt promote the album AT ALL and he'd sell more albums out the back of his car. think hes ditching the US label now and going back onto an indie label to keep it reaaaaal.

The Beasties had every right in the world to ask Prodigy not to play it, and Prodigy had every right in the world to play it anyways. Freedom of Speech works both ways.

you cant deny that the prodigy made great music with keith flint. i dont care what happens outside of the music, and none of you should either. its not like its our business. either listen to it and enjoy it, or dont listen to it. but dont try and get involved in their argument which, might i add, happened years ago.

it doesn't sound like that to me.

anyway, they decided to take it to the stage, make it public. so during their set that night they said something like "the beastie boys told us not to play this song, but nobody tells us what to do..." and then played the song.

shortly after that a girl told me that she had been abused by her boyfriend and that song had always made her cringe. she thanked us for asking them not to play it.

so i have no regrets about it, and have never apologized to them. i think what we did was right. how is anyone going to know that their words are destructive if no one tells them?
I remember reading about this ages ago. Nice to actually hear it from 'the horses mouth'. Prodigy is good shit, but I always loved that you guys don't shy away from making your opinions known. Something needed to be said. It's a good song (read: catchy) but the lyrics are still just...wrong.

Keep doing what you're doing Yauch.

PS: I got a full refund for my Oshega tickets (both nights). I was so sad to hear you couldn't make it, and my ride was bummed out and wouldn't drive me to Montreal. I hope your doing well man. That email this morning brought a huge smile to my face. You'll be fine man. Can't wait to hear the new album. I'll see you righteous dudes next time you're in Toronto.
Last year at the Hummingbird Centre was fucking dope (ACC was good too but Hummingbird fucking killed it). Thanks for convincing Adam and Mike to play those last few extra punk tracks at the end of the set dude.
You rock. I'll never forget that show.
Stay classy. Kick cancers ass. Peace

I didn't read all the post and I don't want to take a side. I just looked up the line "smack my bitch up" in the world's best online-dictionary and found this article about it:
"It is a phrase from the greater london area and can be read only as a whole. The single words mean:
smack = to inject heroin
bitch = the upper arm vein"
I am really not sure if the Prodigy really meant that. And I hated the video straight away, because I hate videos with puking people and I never really likes the Prodigy anyway. But I like the song.

Good day

i am a huge beastie fan, but they were wrong. this has nothing to do with musical taste, personally i think prodigy sucks, my opinion comes from the fact that, the beasties boys were very hypocrital. i know the boys have transformed over the years and are more conscious, but do you think if some band or madonna (when they opened for her) told them they catn perform "girls?"...that song is way more offensive than "smack my b--- up"...that takse me to my second point. the beasties, of all peolple, should know that is a sample from ultramagnetic mc's, one of the most creative, funky, unique hip hop groups of all time. did you diss kook keith back in '88? you're telling me yauch, you interpret all rappers to actaully do what they say and it is all true? did you actually shoot a man in brooklyn just to watch him die? damn, how did you not get caught? i am still a hardcore beastie head but never understood that issue with prodigy. btw, kool g rap would be in jail for murdering about 3000 dudes and i believe he still walks the streets a free man

Yeah but why keep bringing the past up. Had this taken place in 88 then yeah okay I can see the hypocrite thing but it didn't. This happened at a point of their career they were more conscious of who they were as a band and how their actions affect people.

Any way I can't understand how their rights were violated. Sure if some folks think it was wrong to ask them not to play the song then fine but taking it this far with violating rights is a bit much. I mean come on lol. That would happen if the BB's were given the authority to keep the song being played indefinitely or taking the band off of the list of performers and last I checked the BB's don't work for the government. Did any of that happen? No. They still went on and played that song as they always have with the knowledge that the BB's didn't approve of it. Big deal! Plus I am sure there are many establishments who wouldn't play both BB's or Prodigy music so does that mean both bands need to file complaints because their music isn't being played?


If anything the fans should have appreciated the fact that they follow a band who hates violence against women.

Being beat down builds character. The Beasties were on the wrong side of this issue.
