  • Im so glad beasties made the newer version. This version isn't bad but i love the beastie boys version

  • What people fail to realize is that this is a demo version of Run DMC. Rick Ruben was notorious for doing two versions of songs and then tweaking it and making it better etc. LL Cool J did it for Rock the Bells. His demo version was WAAAY different than the single and the single was way different than his album version. If this made the cut for Raising Hell, it would have been dope. However, I am glad that the Beasties Flipped it and used it on Licence to Ill

  • Thank you sir I've waited a lifetime to hear this.I put it up there with hearing that 20th century steel band song.those who lived through the 80s early 90s hip hop or beat geeks might get it.

  • "White Castle fries only come in one size" >>>> " I see real well cause I have four eyes"

  • Wow, it's really a trip hearing RunDMC do this track! I never knew it was their cut, first. Beasties flipped that shit and rocked it!

  • OMG! never knew Run DMC did this first! nice job!

  • this is from liscense to ill dumbass

  • @sterrie12 this is the Run Dmc original dumb ass!

  • @sterrie12 its actually run dmc's song but they let the beastie boys do it instead. if u wer a real beastie fan u would no tht

  • @sterrie12 Run wrote some of the lyrics to license to ill for the Beastie Boys

  • beastie boys is way better

  • Ya this song is on remastered King of Rock. lol I didn't even notice I had both versions on my itunes for a while.

  • Check your head and the real musical albums like the mix up are what show the beastie boys are true artists that are extremely talented! thanks for posting this song!

  • I believe this was on a re-issued Run-DMC disc... I was thinking King of Rock, not Raising Hell... Beasties music was better in my opinoin

  • took me 27yrs to here this dope ass trak

  • Wow!  Thank you for this-I sure as hell didn't know.

  • does anyone know if the beastie boys gave run dmc their credit or royalties for their remake of this song?

  • Run DMC got credit for writing this song. Who knows about royalties.

  • Yea Run Dmc got some credit.

  • YOU STUPID . those 80's rolands cold rock ,word !

  • man they need a better drum machine man the 80s hehe gotta love it :D i loev run dmc rip jmj

  • white castle fries only come in one size!!!

  • I see real well 'cuz I got 4 eyes!

  • I see real well cuz I got foru eyes!!!

  • Just heard they are releasing a remastered Paul's Boutique again for their 20 year anniversary. Nice.

  • great! Paul's Boutique is a masterpiece!

  • I read that it will be a remastered LP with a poster and pictures and such. It comes with commentary by the Beasties, too.

  • SHIT!!! It's run!

  • Run-DMC wrote a few songs that wound up on Licensed To Ill. Let's hope Rick Rubin produces a future Beasties album. They need the help.

  • LOL. The album he did with them was the worst thing they ever put out. Then they came back and blew it out of the water with Paul's Boutique. AMAZING ALBUM on every level.

  • I agree Paul's Boutique is their best work.I love all the Beasties albums but I just think their last album (To The 5 Burroughs) was not their greatest, I think they need some production help for future albums maybe. It was just an opinion.

  • Yeah. I just don't think they need Rick Rubin. I don't want to hear another Licensed to Ill ever again. That was fine for the time because hip hop was so young, but they need to do something revolutionary. A lot of people call "Paul's Boutique" their Abbey Road... but I think of it more as their "Sgt. Pepper's...". Before they are done, hopefully they make their "ABBEY ROAD".

  • i agree, but i think to the 5 boroughs isnt very easy to listen to at 1st but then a few songs start to grow on u

  • i think the the ones they brought out - check it out, triple trouble and to the 5 boroughs are amazing but the rest isnt as good

  • They need the help? Pfft.

  • Classic Material!!!!!
