Pros: Great beats and rhymes; lots of growth but also fun Cons: Long winding-down feeling at the end
In 1998, the self-proclaimed "Scientists of Sound" backed up their claim once more. On their fifth album, Hello Nasty, the Beastie Boys re-reinvented their sound, this time focusing less on rap and more on trying out new sounds. While ...
Pros: the Beasties still have some of the best mic skills around, new hip hop beats Cons: there's a lot of non-hip hop songs that don't sound right to me
The Beastie Boys are everyone’s favorite white-boy rap group. They’ve been in the hip hop scene for what seems like forever. Most acts that have been around as long as they have are long gone. They were kind of like Elvis in the sense that they brought...
Pros: Strong songs and a long stretch of near-brilliance Cons: Even more musically diverse than Ill Communication and, like I said in that review, that may turn some people off
The summer of 1998 was an odd music climate. It was Fastball territory, and *N Sync had their foot firmly in the door. And then, in June, my roommates and I happened upon a late-night MTV airing of "Intergalactic." It was just the high-budget...
Pros: A few good tracks here Cons: Beastie Boys can do better than this in their sleep!
"It's like hello nasty, where ya been?"
I'm not sure what the answer is but next time, Hello Nasty can stay there. After the diverse and funky Ill Communication, one of my favourite rap albums, they followed it up with an...
Pros: catchy beats, rhymin' treats Cons: a couple of "different" tracks--maybe you'll like them
The Beastie Boys are an oddity. They got their start in hardcore punk bands and have ended up as some of the most original (ironic, considering the amount samples they use) rap/hip-hop artists around.
Pros: The Beasties concoct a wholly new sound... again! Cons: mass-media-sellout packaging, weak rhyming
This album is definitely an enigma. What is so enigmatic about this record is that it has childish-retro beats and rhymes, and yet it is the Beastie Boys's most mature piece of work. The rhyming is the least strong of any of the albums, with cutesy...
Pros: new dimension to group's sound, lengthy--over 20 songs Cons: interludes may turn off casual fans
I bought Hello Nasty because I like the Beastie Boys--their albums and in concert. But, guess what? I didn't like Hello Nasty when I first listened to it. I thought it was too mellow and blase. I gave it another chance and a world opened up for me. I...
This album, their fifth studio release, is the Beastie Boys. If you are not familiar with the Beasties, they are THE biggest white hip-hop band ever. Having gotten their start in the early 80's, these Manhattan boys began as more of a joke than...
The boys did it again with the beat the sythem the jams the tunes live
hot wild nasty bad big bold it is wild ladies will love it Guys will jam to it you got to have it kinda style up in your big grinning face.
Pros: can listen too it all the way through, great music and meaning Cons: nothing
Right now in the rap music and rock music scene, much of the stuff you here has been influenced by the Beastie Boys, and this cd is just another work of art displaying their vast talent. I like EVERY track on this cd except Body Movin (to...
Pros: It is the Beastie Boys Cons: Too new age style, boring
This cd went into my basement collection within a month of purchasing it. The cd is actually pretty good and has some creative stuff, but it doesn't compare in any way to Ill Communication or any other such Beastie Boys cds of the past. Now look, if...
Pros: The Beastie Boys create another great album. Cons: None
In 1998 the Beastie Boys return with a strong and diverse album. And what a great album it was, and still is. One great thing about the Beasties and that they always stay fresh and different, unlike most rappers that just try to be like other rappers out ...
Hello Nasty, the 1998 hit album released by the Beastie Boys is probably my favorite of all of their releases. These three men ( from New York were the original white rappers in the hip-hop world but they put all the imitators who came after them...
Pros: Great Singles off album, new style. Cons: Not many hip-hop tracks for hip-hop fans.
After a 4 year layoff from their LP, Ill Communication, the Beastie Boys released their fifth, and possibly final full length studio record in June of 1998.
People had been wondering what ever became of those men known best for " Fight...
Pros: Great beat, awesome box art, good songs, fun lyrics Cons: Beastie boys don't make mistakes
After getting this CD the Beastie boys became my favorite band. This is the best music I have every heard. It opened me up to a whole new world. I always thought that I hated rap but this CD changed my life. Intergalactic the best song ever. It...
