  • what samples did they use for this one? or they composed it themselves?

  • Who else is even less impressed by the Gorillaz after hearing this?

  • This video is more relevant today than when it was made

  • This imho is the song that inspired many of the tracks on

    'Ill Communication' the superior BB album of all.

  • The Beasties are truly one of the originators of hip hop. Respect.

    Check out

    Syl Johnson 'Is It Because I'm Black'

    Thumbs up if this sounds like where they got the riff for this track or reply if you know of any connection between these to cuts.

    Thanks, Peace.

  • i came here to get high

  • Is there really that many planes or was that shot computer generated?

  • what a waste of a good .45, that gun never killed anybody. no guns have ever killed anyone, just lowlife dirtbags USE guns cause theyre cowards, guns are just TOOLS its how you use them that gives them a bad name.

  • ¡¡ APOCALIPSIS WOW !!

  • how they love sledgehammers..

  • like the explosions

  • FUCK VEVO!

  • @botch13 this is emi dumdass

  • What sets the B-Boys apart from every other hip-hop and alternative act is that there never has been nor will there be anybody who can imitate anything in their catalog.

    They are unique. There will never be another.

    How many hip-hop acts like the Beastie's (with true MC's like MCA, Ad-Rock and Mike D) can you name that write the music they rap to, then play the instruments on the recordings AND live?! How about zero.

  • @bigleagues

    how about you fail. how about "the roots"

  • @RasputinStream Beastie's pre-date The Roots by several years - and I love The Roots, btw . . . but I was incomplete in my comment - I should have added that the BB are equally adept behind the mics as they are on their instruments and have a sound that is uniquely theirs (as do The Roots). The fact is, they are the originators a more evolved experimental side of the genre. That and they can play punk music really well too.

  • Is this The Beastie Boys or Pink Floyd? Fucking awesome song.

  • I saw Beastie Boys at Reading 92 on Saturday afternoon, Mike D had green hair. Fucking brilliant they were. Then Sunday Nirvana. Good times, oh yeah.

  • this song fucks with my head holy shit

  • yea back to the 90s and my skateboard

  • I wanted to watch this video but not bad enough to sit through the annoying commercial.

  • 8 people got shitty weed....

  • @FormerFilmer Make that 16.

  • thumbs up if you're a douche bag.

  • gorillaz style!!!!

  • @TheFlyingBrain beastie boys style

  • this video gives me an elevation that should be obscene but is strangely comforting instead

  • shame about the advertisements...great stuff tho...

  • MY NUG....

  • Old school music <3 =]

  • The Venus Project is new age propaganda designed to entice people into accepting the United Nation's globalization program called Agenda 21. Keep researching. <3

  • @Bliu2548 Jaques fresca is such a rad guy

  • Just watched Koyaanisquatsi, this video is a fitting epilogue to that film. Bliu2548

  • FUCK VEVO!

  • word to the dude above me wuddup with the rating. duuude legit songs people needa get lost into .

  • loo up the venus project. its about uniteing the earth. very cool stuff.

  • Reminded me of Bob Marley in the beggining, Minus the pot.

  • I I Wish For Peace Between The Races Someday We Shall All Be One Why Fight Yourself This One's Called Rectify There's Something Coming To The Surface There's Fire All Around But This Is An Illusion I've Seen Better Days Than This One I've Seen Better Nights Than This One Tension Is Rebuilding Something's Got To Give Something's Got To Give Someday We Shall All Be One Jesus Christ We're Nice

  • Comment removed

  • i enjoyed that vid n how true is the ending

  • BRING N ME BACK

  • ONLY 20,000 VIEWS??!!! I THINK IT"S MISSING A COUPLE OF ZEROS

  • I feel like the people complaining about the handguns are being maligned too much. After all, as @ReservedRealist points out, a single handgun is hardly a tool of destruction in the face of B-52s, atomic bombs, and battle tanks.

    Although to agree with @cocoforcolepuffs -- the symbolism of the handgun's destruction outweighs the value of the gun itself.

    Also, some of the people might be facetiously mourning the handgun; have a sense of humour.

  • nooooooooo that gun was so young

  • B is for Beastie and Buddha. thumb that.....but dont forget about Bob Marley.

    Bob still is the letter B. None thumbs up or down needed.

    Beasties forever. they go to 11

  • @morjohnny540 or maybe 13

  • Interesting that people are pissed off because of a handgun being destroyed when the rest of the video is cluster bombs destroying villages and B-52s that we don't even use (better rusting in the desert than being used in action, but still a big ass waste of our money)... just sayin

  • @Russellfunt you know we still do use B-52s we just dont make anymore... just sayin

  • great stuff.

    PEACE TO ALL

    thanks for posting

  • By far my favorite Beastie Boys video. Gotta love seeing our tax dollars sitting in a field collecting dust. Simply there for a show of might to those who can see them from space!

  • 3:00 lmao!

  • Stop this war machine, bombs, guns and rifles are shit.

  • true hipi pop blues

  • thumpbs up if you like old school rap better

  • @michaelperez44 Piss off.

  • @michaelperez44 This is rap rock/psychedelic rock you're listening to right now, not that creepy gangsta rap you think this is. The Beastie Boys are definitely the parents of rap rock.

  • @oldschool90z This IS old school rap so I think this tune is what he was talking about. I was watching this in the early 90's, I think thats old school enough for rap anyhoo. I could be wrong but eh. My fav BS tune right here.

  • @michaelperez44 this isn't rap.... It's rock and roll with a side of hip hop...

  • @KittenSnipa actually, this is DUB!

  • B.B. are influenced as much to hip hop to rock. Find them on youtube brightens my day!. But this video really has a good message.

  • Nice wasting a perfectly good hand gun MCA.

  • best beastie song ever made!

  • beastie boys getting such low rating...i don't get it.

  • @kevinatucla most of the sickest most illest shit there is these days can potentially have tht stigma, cuz socially in many ways.. how should i put it?.. are lost. just keep doing wat u feel n know is right ppls... it'll all fall in place.

  • @kevinatucla do u smoke?

  • @kevinatucla WTF are you talking about

  • @kevinatucla cuz they are not all bling-bling and they are white kids not singin bout money and cars

  • @kevinatucla justin beiber has 500,000,000 views, I'm sure you can figure it out.

  • thank you little james praying wolf for the profound and well put caveat at the end of this video

  • Comment removed

  • I do like the anti-war message but handguns aren't to blame

  • @ReservedRealist its not that he is blaming hand guns he is just blaming the creation of the "art of war/guns in general.

  • greatisism!

  • YesI!
