Iconic and popular songs by the Beastie Boys

Let me introduce some tracks by the Beastie Boys, a music group that was signed to the legendary hip-hop label Def Jam Recordings.

Although the Beastie Boys primarily operated as a rap unit, they originally formed as a hardcore punk band.

Because of that origin, many of their songs strongly feature rapcore elements, blending punk with hip-hop.

Their debut album became the first hip-hop album to reach number one on the Billboard charts, and they are often said to have ‘brought hip-hop to the suburbs.

‘ They had a major impact not only on the hip-hop scene but also on the rock scene.

Let’s look back on the Beastie Boys’ music with this playlist.
