[mattyjensen1]

i got the gun,you got the brew....

[mattyjensen1]

good nephew!

[MrKJ444]

my 7 year old nephew knows every word to this song.

[jdavis882]

None of you know the importance of this song. This gave birth to reverse 808.

[medicinalsnowball]

@jdavis882 Is that what that is? The reverse 808? Awesome.

[jdavis882]

@medicinalsnowball Yep, this was one of the first popular songs using the reverse 808. The 808 synthesizer makes drum beats, reversing it gives you that "whoot" sound. Popular in hip hop these days.

[wowewowla]

1980 he dizza days wowewow ohoooooh

[Kuddda]

Licensed to Ill was the debut album by the Beastie Boys, released in 1986.

It was the first hip hop LP to top the Billboard 200 chart. It was also Columbia Records' fastest-selling debut record to date and sold over 9 million copies. Enough Said.

[melvincrover]

@Kuddda what about paul's and pollywog?



[cessna151]

[12onetwo123]

@rheacastle there is no paul revere vid. jeez.  It's fucking called google, kids. USE IT.

[iamnotron2007]

Time is illusory & this is what I listen to

[DulvluSpa]

I'm 108 and this is what I listen to-WHO CARES!? It was cool when I first saw these type of comments 2 years ago. Since then YouTube has become 10 times more popular, so I see these comments all over the place. I'm not mad, I'm just saying that TONS of kids your age listened to this music, it's good music, so don't feel special if you're a fetus and jamming to this stuff. Props to you dudes for liking this stuff, anyways.

[aerosmithbeatles]

I'm 12 And This Is What I listen Too [:

[12onetwo123]

@aerosmithbeatles applause. Now shut the fuck up.

[Blikkx]

I'm 16 And This Is What I listen Too [:

[fortheloveoftunes]

Wow da "Mr. Oizo : Flatbeat" effect dude! .-)

[cheapcape]

1 sheriff voted this song down.

[youmadbroskii]

the beastie boys can slaughter any of those "rappers" (i choke when i call them that) we got now a days -___-

[teddybruscie]

Tell Sarah Palin this is the real story of Paul Revere.

[JasonBrodbeckWebsite]

@teddybruscie Her response: "They played that wiffle ball back in those ages?"

[D8XL]

Either the Sheriff, his daughter, the piano player, or his boy with beef voted.

[tigersoccerchic]

dang the rap music industry really let itself go.... this is the real music right here.

[ForceRecon198]

I said "howdy" he said "hi".

[LSUHickk]

Great song. First and only song I have ever remembered not having a chorus line. Only a story from start to finish.

[Jaysun0000]

First ever album I bought! On cassette!!!

[daskorpian]

just proof that this "new" shit it rehashed and this came out 25 years ago

[JDawg91790]

Makes me wish i was a kid in the 80's..... Gettin sick of most rappers/hip hop artists today. The only one i really listen to is Wiz Khalifa

[caboverde100]

This song is a classic the beat alone is classic... The whole album was classic and In my book in the top 10 of alltime hip -hop albums.... End of story, debate ... Enough said!!!!

[rexboogie]

Run-Dmc Wrote this.

[H31D1lynn]

[wasben]

[kidsrule1235]

best song made by them

[inthraledwithdub]

I have heard some funky beats in the last 24 years and I can truely say this is the best! Even George Clinton and Bootsie Collens had to say that sh-- is funky. There should be an on running site where people vote song against song with votes. There might be? If not somebody make that sh-- happen.

[browneyedgurl35]

this was da best cd by them,after this dey went into another direction wit their music

[PaRkOuRbOyKaI]

i did it like this.. i did it like that... I DID IT WITH THE WIFFLE BALL BAT!

[MrSchmuchface]

i dont like rap or hip hop but i do like the b boys

[66stabmastaarson]

Theese three white boys are the reason I started to listen to hip hop in the first place in the 80s when I was just a wee one and my bro got the RECORD for this hot, hot album lol

[emblazedred1]

This song would turn my amp off. It would piss me off but i finally worked it out and the lights on my bumper unscrewed themselves.

[HandofDoom01]

[airguns100]

[drewski5217]

One of the sickest beats, you can feel the weed smoke burnin your eyes while you ride through the town chiefin' up in the neighborhood hoopty-all windows rolled up to keep the thunda cloud in! Cheech and Chong all night long!

[luckyhXckid]

[gibsonrock53]

Real music! New rap is horrible

[xXxPiMpDaDdYxX]

@gibsonrock53

[sneak108]

@gibsonrock53 This is sick. Nobodies ever done anything like this since. Its like 1984 or 85 

[kotalf]

@gibsonrock53 true but wiz khalifa is good

[kmiller812]

@kotalf Wiz khalifa is awful. I get it, he smokes a lot of we and gets a lot of tail... There a plenty of modern rappers that are great besides him. Atmosphere, Brother Ali, Macklemore, Doomtree, Blue Scholars, Common Market, Living Legends, etc. Also Eyedea but he recently died.

[ChuckxBartowski]

@gibsonrock53 New rap isn't horrible, you just don't know shit about hip-hop.

[getoheisman]

This album brings me back to the days when working at Mcdonalds and the movie theatre was the shizz. Jordans, Chucks, bomber jackets, windrunners, cortez, dickies, Fitted hats, Jerseys is what I use to spend all my money on. Damn I miss those days. When House partys, Suzuki sidekicks, Low riders everybody was a playa, cruising I Luv it what happen to this world ...Bring it back yall....Memories

[T82486]

@getoheisman

Don't forget boom boxes and high top fades with parts. Gold chains and earings with your first intial. Great days!!!!!!!!!

[TheShanBunny]

@getoheisman "Fuckin A", you said it all right there!!

[yak6ex]

@deleanadeleana

The first rap album to go number one on the mainstream charts.

[KingdomBockius]

You're just jealous because you have no musical talent. And why would you listen to it if it sucks? Get a life and go get shagged.

Fucking wanker.

[iamdanmach]
