AHHHG! Beasties! Who would
have ever ,guessed that the
organisms floating around under
Pasteur's microscope would
become synonymous with three
rock-rap brats, known as the
Beastie Boys.
Certainly not Pasteur. Yet,
despite the name, the Beastie Boys
already dominate the U.S. album
chart and hold respective places on
the college and dance charts as
well. As a result, one is just a Top

Like Run-DMC or Big Audio
Dynamite, the Beastie Boys' music
is a collision of rock, rap, and
funk. The Beasties enhance the
rock part with wailing guitar riffs
that sometimes trick you into
believing that you're listening to
metal. Yet, a second later, the
music shifts into a full blown hip
hop beat, complete with scratching
and thumping bass lines. All this is
joined with the Beastie Boys' free-

associated lyrics. Like most other
raps, the Beasties' banter deals
with issues of social importance
such as crime, drugs, and poverty.
But sometimes the Beasties bring
things in on a more personal level.
On "Fight for Your Right," fellow
Beasties complain "living at home
is such a drag, your mom threw
away your best porno mag." Other
lyrics describe the fun of getting
kicked out of White Castle or pick
ing up 'girlies' downtown.
Nonetheless, the two most
notable songs on the album are
"No Sleep Till Brooklyn" and
"Brass Monkey." "No Sleep till
Brooklyn" rocks because of guest
metal guitarist Kerry King. This is
probably the only serious rap-rock
song on the album. "Brass
Monkey" is either the name of the
Beastie Boys' favorite beer or the
caricature of the mug they drink
from. Either way, one can picture
the Beastie Boys writing "Brass
Monkey" while sitting around get
ting smashed.

The sole clinker of "Licensed to
Ill" seems to be the song "Time to
Get III." On which, the theme from
Mr. Ed is hacked and scratched in a
volatile rap fashion while the
Beasties' chant "What's the time?/
It's time to get ill."
Wilbur, are they serious?
