[00:01:03] Speaker B: Foreign.
[00:01:15] Speaker C: Welcome back to another episode of Rock Roulette Podcast. That's right, the crazy ass podcast that took over 1, 800 albums, stuck them in a list, stuck them in a wheel and every other week we spin the wheel. She picks a record for us and we go through it track by track. We talk about the music, the lyrics, the production, the melody and the arrangement and we give it scores. Just a bunch of friends who love music want to do a podcast and everyone who takes this trip with us of Discovery and Rediscovery as we call it, we want to thank you. Spread the word, let us know what you like, what you don't like. Suggest an album. Suggest a song for the Baby Wheel. We are a trio as usual. We got Frank.
[00:01:48] Speaker D: My name is Frank.
[00:01:55] Speaker E: And I'm sexy.
[00:02:03] Speaker F: Hello everybody.
[00:02:04] Speaker C: We have Mark. Oh hi Mark.
[00:02:06] Speaker E: What's up guys?
[00:02:07] Speaker C: And I'm Sad. Ciao Buena theater. Last week we got something interesting, the Pulse Boutique by the Beastie Boys. Something definitely not within the rock genre, although they tapped on some rock in the first record. But this one, not as much. It's more hip hop and it's sample filled. Very nostalgia filled for some people who grew up in the city about especially Eggman and going through that on Halloween and other nostalgic factors that we touched upon. And it's been pretty interesting. Scores have been pretty decent and I mean I think overall we're enjoying it. Mark, what do you think?
[00:02:38] Speaker E: Yeah, I like it. I put it on on purpose. I put their discogr here on purpose. Hopefully we would run into it and I liked it so far. I think it's pretty good. The sampling is innovative for the time. I like the rapping. I think it's really good.
[00:02:48] Speaker C: Yeah, it's pretty fun. Frank, what's your take overall?
[00:02:50] Speaker F: Enjoying every bit of it. I haven't heard this album in a very, very long time. I forgot how good it is. I forgot how much of the pop culture reference that they make throughout the whole album. I guess I didn't notice it until Mark pointed it out. What they're rapping about. You lose context somet.
[00:03:05] Speaker C: Cool. So as we mentioned, this is definitely a rediscovery for you. It's discovery for me. I don't think I've ever really fully listened to a Beastie Boys album. It is cool to get something like this. I'm looking forward to the second side. Before we get to that, we get the new vets and spin the baby
[00:03:20] Speaker B: wheel in a world where new music is not easy to find.
Welcome to New Bets.
[00:03:39] Speaker E: Okay, here's the new Bets wheel.
[00:03:53] Speaker C: Senses tiptoeing. Not through the tulips, just tiptoeing.
Unless they mention it in the song.
[00:04:00] Speaker E: I've seen this on social media a lot. It's basically a singer and a drummer. I think they have a guitar player when they play live. There's obviously tracks to fill out all the other things there, which I'm not a huge fan of in the live sense. The song is not bad. You tell me what you think. It's very poppy and you tell me what it reminds you of. This is tiptoeing by senses.
[00:04:21] Speaker G: I thought 150 times how to get you in my life since I walked
[00:04:27] Speaker D: away
[00:04:30] Speaker G: Cause all of our deleted scenes are the only thing I dream every single night if you want to we could try to make this go our
[00:04:43] Speaker B: way I don't want this to fall
[00:04:49] Speaker G: through I can fall you don't want
[00:04:53] Speaker B: me to stay there's not one thing
[00:04:57] Speaker G: I won't do can we quit tiptoeing
[00:05:00] Speaker B: and get this thing going again?
[00:05:03] Speaker G: All the pages that you ripped out I picked off the ground every single night I don't know what will happen this time with you I don't know if I'll get it right if you want to we could try to make
[00:05:24] Speaker B: this go away I don't want this
[00:05:30] Speaker G: to fall through I'm looking for you don't want me to stay there's not one thing I won't do Cuz we quit tiptoeing and get this thing going again and we quit tiptoeing and get this thing going again can we quit tiptoeing and get this thing going again?
I'll go as far as you want to go Every part of you I want to know I don't want this to fall through be for you don't want me to stay there not one thing I won't do Cuz we quit tiptoeing and get this thing going again.
We quit tiptoeing and get this thing going again can we quit tiptoeing and
[00:06:48] Speaker B: get this thing going again?
[00:06:51] Speaker C: It was catchy. Think Katy Perry. You should never hear that. It's catchy. I think I'd listen to it again to give more of a. An opinion. Don't like the snare sound, but that goes without saying.
Anybody who listens and gives a About what, I think they'll be like, yep, he needs that snare sound. Very popular. Catchy. Mark.
[00:07:08] Speaker E: I think the chorus is super catchy. I think the chorus is very, very Katy Perry reminiscent. Almost. I would dare to say, copycat.
[00:07:15] Speaker B: Ish.
[00:07:16] Speaker E: Maybe that's why it's so familiar sounding and it's so catchy because you've heard it before. She can sing from the live stuff that I've seen. Since there's only three and there's no bass player, there's a lot of tracks. There's vocal tracks going on behind it. It's not my cup of tea. Live.
[00:07:30] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:07:30] Speaker E: I wouldn't want to go see that because I know too much. And I would just be sitting there all the time thinking, all right, so what is happening behind here? Because I know this stuff that's happening because they're just a duo. They're a singer and a drummer. Technically, they have a guitar player, but I don't think he's in the band. Band. As far as I can tell, there's very little information. He seems to be just a guitar player that's playing.
[00:07:49] Speaker C: It just hangs out.
Yeah.
[00:07:51] Speaker E: The guitar player that's doing live. I'm pretty positive there's lots of tracks and stuff going on behind it, which for me is just not a thing. As far as the song goes. It's catchy. It's fast. It's two minutes, 35. It's quick.
[00:08:01] Speaker C: Yeah, it's very quick.
[00:08:02] Speaker F: It's.
[00:08:02] Speaker E: It has a very mid-2010s vibe. I didn't think it was horrible. Right.
[00:08:06] Speaker F: I don't know what I just heard. It was definitely not rock related. Something a little fun to listen to, a little bit different. That's all I got for it.
[00:08:13] Speaker E: It had some distorted guitar on. It wasn't totally unrock. It's sort of faux rock a little bit.
[00:08:19] Speaker C: Okay.
[00:08:20] Speaker F: Faux rock. That's a new thing. F rock.
[00:08:22] Speaker C: So frock.
[00:08:24] Speaker D: Frock.
[00:08:25] Speaker C: Frock and fro.
[00:08:27] Speaker F: Yeah, it was frock. Once you go. Once you get the frck out of here with that.
[00:08:34] Speaker E: It is catchy, though. You can see how it could Be popular.
[00:08:37] Speaker C: Yeah, definitely. It was very catchy.
[00:08:39] Speaker E: I haven't heard anything else from them, so I don't know what else they have going on.
[00:08:42] Speaker C: I never heard of them.
[00:08:43] Speaker E: I don't think once you see an ad from them, it'll be everywhere. I saw one ad from them and now just continually happens. I clicked on it one time just because I was curious and that's all it took.
[00:08:52] Speaker C: Oh, that's all it takes.
[00:08:54] Speaker E: I see it all the time now.
[00:08:55] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:08:55] Speaker E: And they're hitting social media hard, man. It's just a lot of little clips of just that chorus. Hopefully they break out with that.
[00:09:01] Speaker C: Yeah, good for them. So you got to do. You got to market yourself, man. Put yourself out.
[00:09:04] Speaker E: Let us know on social media if you like it or if you don't like it or if you think it's faux rock or not rock or whatever it is. And let's rubber stamp it. Here we go.
[00:09:13] Speaker B: In a world where new music is not easy to find, welcome to new bets.
[00:09:32] Speaker E: Okay, side two. The first song is Five Piece Chicken Dinner, but it's 23 seconds and then the next song is Looking down the barrel of a gun. So we're going to play them back to back into each other. I don't know what the first part's going to be, so whether we're going to be able to rate that, I don't know. But I figured we'll just let it run. This is five piece chicken dinner into looking down the barrel of a gun.
[00:10:08] Speaker D: Sam.
[00:11:12] Speaker B: On the tree in the middle of the night.
[00:11:28] Speaker D: Don't touch the mic, baby. Don't go near it. It's going to get you it's going to get you. It's going to get you.
[00:11:37] Speaker B: It's going to get you.
[00:12:00] Speaker C: That's cool. I like it. They actually play instruments on this one. It says, I love the time sample. It's heavy. It's the heaviest one so far. I think so, Yeah.
I mean that intro is whatever. It was like he Haw Makes by Land of the Lost intro with the banjo. This song, which I'm considering the true song, is pretty good.
[00:12:19] Speaker E: Everyone's playing guitar, bass and drums on this, so that's good. Supposedly there's a Mississippi Queen sample in here someplace. I don't know if I heard it yet. Yeah, I thought it was pretty cool. Interesting lyrics as usual.
[00:12:30] Speaker F: I like that first 25 seconds. It was a little goofy, a little fun. And then they hit you with the hard stuff right there. I love that whole ramp up to the song. And like Mark said The lyrics are pretty interesting.
Like, liking it so far. Really good.
[00:12:43] Speaker E: This is what I was hoping to have more of them playing and doing stuff like this besides the rap stuff. Even though it's still rap, just the music being more them playing. I think it's good. All right, let's continue. Here we go.
[00:12:56] Speaker D: Looking down the barrel of a gun
[00:12:58] Speaker B: Son of a gun, Son of a. Getting paid, getting rich Ultra violence be running through my head making me seem red.
Sam,
[00:14:40] Speaker C: There's Mississippi Queen.
[00:14:42] Speaker E: Yeah, I was wondering when it was going to come in.
[00:14:43] Speaker C: Yeah, that was the obvious, but yeah, it's cool. It's the heaviest one so far.
[00:14:47] Speaker E: The question here is, are we going to be reading the first thing is the question. I guess so that's it.
[00:14:52] Speaker C: That was the end of the song.
[00:14:53] Speaker E: Yes.
[00:14:55] Speaker C: I don't think we should rate the first thing. I mean. Okay, that's a little intro. I think this is the crux.
[00:14:59] Speaker E: All right, well, they go first.
[00:15:00] Speaker C: I'm going to go sevens across. Make it easy.
[00:15:03] Speaker A: Nikki titty baby darling. It's quintuple seven.
[00:15:05] Speaker E: Well, I like the fact that they're playing instruments. I like the bass. There's nothing spectacular music wise going on here. I just like the vibe. I think the words are funny. I think I'm gonna do sevens across as well.
[00:15:14] Speaker F: It's groovy, man. It's quintuple seven. Nikki titty baby Frank. Same as the two of you. Great to listen to them playing live. I wish there was more of this in the first side. This type of song. Them rocking out, grooving out for me. Sevens across.
[00:15:28] Speaker E: Oh, yeah. Nikki titty baby, it's quintuple seven. Okay. But the next song is Car Th.
[00:16:05] Speaker D: Cause me and my crew are out breaking windows. Flamingo, mulatto, you know, under my windows.
[00:16:11] Speaker B: Possession of sackaroo.
[00:16:13] Speaker D: I had my teeth before Oregon. Your whole life is coming.
You ain't nothing but a coffee biting the tea. I'm a city slick dog right now.
[00:16:25] Speaker B: I better had another half round
[00:16:30] Speaker D: of kicking your fucking ass.
[00:16:32] Speaker B: Try to take what isn't yours like a goddamn rat. See, I personally want to go.
[00:16:49] Speaker C: I like the way this one starts better than the rest of it. I always like that cross fading thing. It's okay.
[00:16:55] Speaker E: Yeah, it was pretty good. I mean, Beastie Boys, this is what they do. I think the dustburgers had this track and then they came in and put the raps over the dust brother stuff. Maybe that's why it sounds a little different. That's pretty cool. I like it.
[00:17:06] Speaker F: Great. Follow up song for sure. Digging it. I love the mixing on this one. So far, so good.
[00:17:11] Speaker E: They're nothing if not consistent. All right, let's continue. Here we go.
[00:17:35] Speaker D: Rush, Rush. So many people in the city when I started to brush you be doing no standing on the bowy coat mirror.
Homeboy throw in a towel your girl got dicked by Ricky Powell. Got fire soul in the belly of the beast Smoking that duck to St. Anthony's Feast.
[00:18:11] Speaker C: I'm assuming it's not the one that we know.
They mentioned St. Anthony Feast. I can't imagine it's the one that we went.
[00:18:19] Speaker E: I don't know. I was thinking the same thing when I saw that.
[00:18:21] Speaker C: There has to be multiple. It's probably one in Brooklyn, I would think, right there. From Brooklyn originally, right?
[00:18:26] Speaker E: I believe so.
[00:18:27] Speaker C: It's gotta be.
[00:18:27] Speaker E: Yeah.
[00:18:28] Speaker C: Imagine they were at our first concert ever as a live band.
The Beastie Boys were there.
[00:18:33] Speaker E: That'd be very funny.
[00:18:34] Speaker C: You imagine, like, one day they're like, listen, we saw these kids who, like, really sucked, but they were brave and they inspired us. We don't remember the name of the band.
[00:18:44] Speaker E: I have to look it up and see which one they're referring it to. If we can find out. Obviously, a lot of drug references in this verse.
You be doing nose candy on the Bowie coke mirror.
I think they're talking about meth. I saw my teeth fall in the sink when I started to brush Nice.
[00:19:01] Speaker C: That's when you know you've gone too far.
[00:19:03] Speaker E: You think maybe.
[00:19:04] Speaker C: Yeah, you should cut back.
[00:19:05] Speaker E: All right, let's continue. Here we go.
[00:19:17] Speaker D: Stinky bounce time. I'm ticking like a beat to my rhyme Just kicking base cake cookie I discover who I am I'm a dusted
[00:19:25] Speaker B: old bummy hurty dirty man five old bummy Now I'm going to the mountain Take a.
Sam.
[00:20:37] Speaker C: Is that the end or.
[00:20:38] Speaker E: No, it flows into the next song, so I have to stop it.
[00:20:40] Speaker C: That's what I figured. It's not bad. This is one where I think I'd have to listen to more to like it more or really form an opinion. I think I will not go first. Frank. You go first this time.
[00:20:51] Speaker E: I'm just.
[00:20:51] Speaker F: I'm sorry. I was just reading the last of it.
I love the lyrical style. I do like the mixing again. The mixing has been so good all over, way around. I'm gonna give it sevens across just because I feel there's bigger songs coming. So I want to reserve those highest scores for that. But sevens across.
[00:21:08] Speaker B: Yeah, it's Steve, and it's Quintuple seven. Nikki Titty Baby.
[00:21:14] Speaker E: I'll go next. I do like the rapping. I like the rhyming. I like the lyrics. It's not my favorite on here, but it sounds like Beastie Boys, which I think is what you want. I'm probably gonna do sixes across just because, like Frank said, I think there might be stuff I might like better.
[00:21:28] Speaker C: Better.
[00:21:28] Speaker E: So I'm gonna hold off my sevens or something better. Maybe. Seth.
[00:21:33] Speaker C: Yeah, I'll do the same. I'll go six as a cross. Like I said, I didn't dislike it. It just felt more simplistic, if that makes any sense. A little bit less interesting than some of the other stuff we've heard. Definitely not bad.
[00:21:44] Speaker E: All right, the next song is what Comes Around.
[00:21:58] Speaker D: I like a garbage bag full overflow Please leak Rapunzel Rapunzel so I can climb up and get into your underwear out here Beating test, cheating no business called you insecure Born in the junkyard with the jaw you've gone wet look crazy you around and wound up with the ball skin head all mixed up like prostitute.
Man Ceiling is another man's floor I brought her upstairs onto the roof I talk to wife and she is a professor Goes around, comes around what goes around, comes around what goes around comes around and what comes around Goes around,
[00:22:44] Speaker B: comes around
[00:22:47] Speaker D: Chosen bound down
[00:22:54] Speaker B: your home's been no surround.
[00:23:02] Speaker C: I like that snare sample. I don't know. This kind of feels like the last song.
I don't think there's a massive difference. So, again, it's not bad, but it's not grabbing me as some of the other stuff.
[00:23:13] Speaker E: I think they called it a dud. And you know why you like the snare sound?
[00:23:17] Speaker C: I absolutely know why I like the snare sound, because I know where it's from.
[00:23:21] Speaker E: Okay, where's it from?
[00:23:22] Speaker C: Oh, it's John Bonham.
[00:23:23] Speaker E: Yeah, that's why.
[00:23:24] Speaker C: Oh, yeah. No, I knew, but that's why I said it. I made it a. Made it a nod. As opposed to a blatant, supposedly in
[00:23:30] Speaker E: 2019 Mike D&AD rock holder song a dud and shared. It kind of sucks.
[00:23:35] Speaker C: That's what I'm saying. It's okay. It feels like the one before. It's not much different, I think.
[00:23:40] Speaker E: Well, there's a chorus in this one. The other one didn't have a chorus. I don't hate the chorus. The what goes around comes around.
[00:23:46] Speaker C: See, I didn't even notice. I'll be honest. That's why I got to kind of
[00:23:48] Speaker E: keep listening the other one didn't really say the name. It said it once, I think, in the verse. And there was just verses, really. There was no chorus. Catchy part. I think I may like this a little bit better than that one, tell you truth.
[00:23:58] Speaker C: Wow.
[00:23:59] Speaker F: Surprised that they said this one was a dud. It's not their best, but I wouldn't go as far as calling a dud. But then again, I guess when you have a catalog of successful songs like they had, you can call one of that here and there. So for. The lyrics are hilarious.
Again, a lot of pop culture. A lot of pop culture. Throwing the chair. Geraldo Rivera.
I remember when that happened. I remember seeing that on tv.
[00:24:23] Speaker E: It does put it in a time frame, though. You have to have been there to know what that was.
[00:24:27] Speaker F: Yes, exactly.
[00:24:28] Speaker E: Okay, let's continue. Here we go.
[00:24:32] Speaker D: Clean me Cleaning the G spot. You know that we've got the dolomite house and you have not. Look out my window look over the city with two black eyes your girl ain't that pretty why you wanna be that rat in the back? Why you wanna treat your girl like that?
[00:24:51] Speaker B: Living in the back when you read
[00:24:54] Speaker D: what you saw when you wear the scene bungees I'm not time with Got more Lou Than goes around, comes around One goes around, comes around what goes around, comes around what comes around, comes around One goes around, comes around One goes around, comes around One goes around, comes around One goes round One comes around Jack, Jackie.
[00:25:25] Speaker B: What?
Funky.
[00:26:03] Speaker D: Everybody.
Sky like penis.
Doris, the finosaurus.
[00:26:26] Speaker C: It sounded like they were having fun, if nothing else.
[00:26:28] Speaker E: The end part was my favorite of the whole thing. Just the whole end part. I thought it was fun when they were trying to do scratching with their voices. It's a fun song.
[00:26:36] Speaker C: Yeah, they sound like they had fun.
[00:26:37] Speaker E: Frank, go first again.
[00:26:39] Speaker F: I'll go first. To me, it sounds like they were having fun this entire time. Not just in this song. All of the same songs again. I think the mixing is absolutely great. The production is great. I don't see a dud here. I just see sevens across the board. And the lyrics are just great. It's so hilarious.
[00:26:55] Speaker D: Nikki Titty baby Quintuple. Seven.
[00:26:59] Speaker C: I'm gonna say six in production. Five and everything else. This one really didn't gel with me. And I didn't know that they called it a dud, so I guess they agree with me.
And it bled in from the one before. I'd have to listen to the two of them again to really find that difference. It doesn't. Neither one really had that thing that stuck out to me like the first. First one. Mark.
[00:27:17] Speaker E: I actually like the lyrics a lot. I'm gonna give them a seven and then I'm probably gonna do a six and everything else. I don't think it was bad. I liked it better than Car Thief. I like that. Had a little bit of a chorus. I like the end part a lot. I thought it was fun. All right, the next one. I don't know how you pronounce this. Is it Shadrach. Shadrock. I don't know which way it is, but that's what's coming. Here we go.
[00:28:08] Speaker D: And I'm a sin for those about to rock we salute you.
If I had a penny for my such I'd be a millionaire just three MCs that were on the go Shad Rabbit shot, batting the goat.
[00:28:53] Speaker C: See, that's what I find more enjoyable. It's louder, it's thumpier, which I like. I like the way they're wrapping and everything. I find this one definitely more interesting. Akin to the. For first one.
[00:29:02] Speaker E: I like this a lot. Maybe it's the beat, maybe it's just the way they're rapping. I can't tell you. But I do like this a lot better. I think this is really fun too. I think it's cool.
[00:29:10] Speaker C: Same as YouTube, man.
[00:29:11] Speaker F: A great follow up. I think all the songs on this side have been a great follow up. But yeah, like digging the groove on this one.
[00:29:18] Speaker E: Supposedly the name comes from biblical verses, which I would not expect to have happen on a Beastie Boys album.
She never really know where they're pulling stuff from.
[00:29:27] Speaker C: Oh, they referenced the man Upstairs, right?
[00:29:29] Speaker E: They pulled some AC dc, huh?
[00:29:31] Speaker C: Yeah. Those are about to rock.
[00:29:33] Speaker E: Yeah, I think pretty good. Let's continue. Here we go.
[00:29:49] Speaker D: Got more suits than Jacoby and Myers.
[00:29:56] Speaker B: Tires the Atlantic and free.
Hey.
Still for the ring and I'm out
[00:30:36] Speaker D: Robin Banks give it to the poor and I always give thanks Because I got more stories than JD's got Salinger I hold the title and you are the challenger
[00:30:46] Speaker B: I got the girlies in
[00:30:47] Speaker D: the co like the colonels got the. And I always go.
[00:30:58] Speaker B: Oh, I'm never gonna let him say that I don't love you.
[00:31:07] Speaker D: Well, my diet is.
Hell no I bet to go.
[00:32:29] Speaker C: I like this one. Like the beat and everything. Is that it? Mark, I'm going to ask you this every time. You realize that, right? Cuz I know that things go into each other. So I'm not sure when it ends, if it's officially over or not.
[00:32:38] Speaker E: It's officially over. There's a lot of Sly in the Family Stone parts in here, too. This girl singer. That's Fly in the Family Stone. There was parts of the other one in there during the verses.
[00:32:47] Speaker C: Yeah, I like this one.
[00:32:48] Speaker E: I've got the girlies in a coupe like the colonel's got the chickens yeah,
[00:32:53] Speaker C: they make a lot of girly references.
[00:32:55] Speaker E: I've got money like Charles Dickens I've got more stories than JD's got Salinger funny.
[00:33:02] Speaker C: Some of the stuff is very witty, without a doubt.
[00:33:04] Speaker E: And this even reinforces more that I like MCA's voice the best out of the three. He doesn't seem to have as many raps, but when he comes in, it's always good. I don't know if it's just the way his voice sounds when he actually does it. I do like it a lot.
[00:33:16] Speaker C: Could be.
[00:33:16] Speaker E: I'll go first. I don't know what to say. I think I to go sevens across. I just think it's really good. I'd like to beat. I like the lyrics. I like everything. Production's great. Yeah, I'm gonna do seven.
[00:33:25] Speaker C: Yes, that's right. It's me.
I know I've been gone for a long time But I'm back and it's quintuple 7. Nikki Titty Baby Saf I'll do the same I'll go sevens across there's only
[00:33:36] Speaker E: one way to rock and it's quintuple 7. Nikki Titty Baby Frank Mark.
[00:33:40] Speaker F: You might as well run it one more time.
Talk about consistency and just really solid production, mixing, lyrics, everything. So dig it. Seven's a for me Keep one eye open. It's Nikki Titty Baby Quina 7.
[00:33:54] Speaker E: The next part is going to be a little weird. Ask for Janice is coming up. It's 11 seconds. I don't know what it is, but then the next thing, it's broken up into pieces, but it's really one big thing. It's B boy bula base. It's 12 minutes. We're gonna have to play it and stop it in pieces. I'm gonna play Sri Janice into this, and then I'll randomly stop it because I don't know where I'm gonna stop it in this at all. All right, we go the best in
[00:34:18] Speaker F: men's closing call Paul's Boutique Arts with Jenny. So the number is 718-49-8, 10, 4, 3. That's Paul's boutique and they're in Brooklyn.
[00:34:39] Speaker D: There's a girl over there.
With long brown hair.
I took her to the place.
I threw the mattress in her face.
Took off her shirt, Took off a brawl.
Took off her pen.
You know what I saw?
What about N like a dedicated song after my main homie Mike G.
All right, ready go get on the mic get on the mic just get on the mic get on the mic Mike let's be real and don't clap the issue the W of go listen to people say that they be missing me and missing you get on a mic and let show you say that your homes this I'm the king at wham your dick butt kiss 1/2 tire and another half soul nickname my D not that one jelly roll got busy in Frisco fool around Fresno got over on your girly cuz you know she never says don't get on the money mic Just get on the mic get on the mic get on the mic mic.
[00:36:39] Speaker C: I don't remember the very beginning but this get on the mic is definitely my favorite part so far. I like how loud it is and the beatbox thing going on. The part before it was okay, but it was also very quick. So far this get on the mic is my favorite part.
[00:36:53] Speaker E: Yeah, I like everything so far. I like to beatboxing in this lyrics are pretty good. I got to hear a lot of MCA because I like that. So yeah, I like it.
[00:37:01] Speaker F: I don't know. It hasn't hit me like the other ones. It's not speaking to me like the other ones. It's okay, I just not digging it so far. But let's see as the song progresses if it grows loving.
[00:37:11] Speaker E: Yeah we only have about another 10 minutes of it, so you know, here we go.
[00:37:50] Speaker D: Same faces every day but you don't know that. And eight people going places on a D train.
A train like a captain K Big poc gangsters paying the debts I'm caught a FL in the luck from bear market Overworking, underpaid staring at the floor Prostitutes, pantax caught in the sliding now you're stuck between the stations and it seems like an eternity Sweating like soft beans in a flop house fraternity a $50 fine disturbing the peace the neck tortoise your leaves a crease Hot cup of coffee and the donuts are dunking Friday night a.m. jamaican Queen's Funkin elevated My phone I'm never gonna fall Riding over the diner where I always get my toast Busted through the conductor's booth and busted out rhymes over the loud pick up at the hard time Sat across from my man reading El Diario Riding a train down from El Barrio, went from the space shift to Orange Julius. I brought a hot dog.
[00:40:04] Speaker B: Ass.
[00:40:58] Speaker C: Myself.
I'm digging these last three parts. The mic, the train thing, and whatever this is. I feel like it's picking up. I feel like this is pretty different. The way they're. They're rapping too. It's not their typical style. It's a little bit quieter. The music behind it is really thumping, which is really cool. I think the more it's gone, the more interesting it's become to me and the more I like.
[00:41:54] Speaker E: It takes a real big set of balls to put all these things together to make one big track. I just think it's pretty cool. I liking the words so far. I like all the rap, I like all the samples. Everything's really good. And again, putting different kinds of rapping together into one song in different styles. You got beatbox on one side, you got this on the end. Now the next one, supposedly they're playing instruments on. So far we've got 59 Christie street, get on the mic, stop that train A year and a day. And the next one is going to be called hello, Brooklyn. And supposedly they play stuff on this.
[00:42:27] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:42:27] Speaker C: Yeah, I've read that before. When I said about the other one, that hello Brooklyn. They're playing instruments. More goes along, the more interesting it gets. Frank, has this grown on you at all?
[00:42:35] Speaker F: 100%. A lot better.
It really has. This is what I like about this album. The songs just take on a character and eventually you just grow to it and you can relate to it. And that's what happened here with me. It won me over.
[00:42:46] Speaker E: We still got more time. Another five minutes. Almost. Here we go. This is hello Brooklyn, hello Brooklyn,
[00:43:04] Speaker D: New York, New York It's a hell of a town, you know the Bronx is up and I broke it down because they don't know my name only know my building bombs in the attic for elected officials I quit my job, I cut my hay, you know I cut my balls, nickels I don't care you charged against slick, you bust a li chuckle you're gonna get smacked with my gold finger knuckle.
I'm a buffalo soldier broader than Broadway keep keeping on I don't care what basic loud I disturb my neighbor I
[00:43:42] Speaker B: want to enjoy the fruits of my
[00:43:44] Speaker D: labor Cuz I am the holder of
[00:43:46] Speaker B: the three back you open the book
[00:43:49] Speaker D: then you will get your answer I
[00:43:51] Speaker B: am the keeper of the three pack
[00:43:53] Speaker D: bonanza if you ask a question then you will get your answer I reach, I spell M O N E Y the bell I stay at home just like a hermit I got the jammy but I don't got the permit? You got a boyfriend and his name is nick Annabelle caught with the shrimpy lemon dick?
Well, if your world was all black and your world was all white? You wouldn't get much color out of life now, right? A nickname shell.
[00:45:07] Speaker B: My name is not sheamus My homie
[00:45:10] Speaker D: is famous My name is not a fool.
[00:45:19] Speaker E: Yeah, explain the musician.
[00:45:22] Speaker C: Them knew it, but them can't do it. I like that last one better than the hello, brooklyn one. They're definitely mixing it up and keeping it interesting. I understand that this is all part of one thing, but they really are all separate. Technically, they could have called them all whole album, b boy. Booyah, bas. Just let it all run together. I'm digging most of it. That's what I think is the important thing.
[00:45:44] Speaker E: I think it's very ambitious. And the mere fact that you try to stick all these things together I think is really where it's at and how they just change styles on the fly. The most they went was two minutes and they switched, but most is like a minute or under. Pretty cool. The last two is only going to be about two minutes long. Right? We're at the end. Let's finish it out. Here we go.
[00:46:31] Speaker D: Your face turns red as a glass of wine that you spilled on my lyrics as a whizz of box time you used to be with me you should drop that pump cause I got more flavor than fruit stop gum with the big round butt of yours I like the butter I'm not laughing on a planet like thanksgiving stuffing stuff in stuff it, buddy. Here's another one for y' all to peep. It's called m I k e on the m I c See, see I met this girl last night was a peculiar tackle I laid the bait and she took the tackle.
The breast has a weight in the going through finishy you might notice you never been to see if I ain't finished I'd be called finishy I said life that said fur ride around the town like a raven call me your highness so if you don't know me then I live in the village Wherever I go, I walk to I keep my friends around.
[00:47:38] Speaker E: It's a trip, it's got a funky beat and I can bug out to it.
[00:47:58] Speaker D: Who like these in the house what you going to do?
Airbots in the house what you going to do?
Hurricanes in the house what you going to do?
Hurricanes in the house what you going to do?
What you going do?
[00:48:21] Speaker B: To do one? One.
[00:48:22] Speaker D: What you going to do? Got busy.
[00:48:25] Speaker B: What you going to do?
[00:48:30] Speaker D: What you going to do?
What you going to do?
What you going to do?
[00:49:28] Speaker C: So, because my memory doesn't stretch too far, that last feel, all the Girls, Isn't that how it started? Was it something like that or am I crazy?
[00:49:36] Speaker E: You mean from the first song?
[00:49:38] Speaker C: Yeah, I just remember that. Jazzy Pie. I could be wrong. It sounded familiar.
[00:49:41] Speaker E: Yeah. To all the Girls is the first song.
[00:49:43] Speaker C: Okay, so it did wrap around.
[00:49:45] Speaker E: Yes, yes.
[00:49:46] Speaker C: Okay, I'm not crazy then.
[00:49:48] Speaker E: No. And there were three parts, not two. So it was Lay it on me, Mike on the mic and awol. Awol. It was very adventurous and very interesting to try to put all those things into one big track. Give them credit.
[00:49:59] Speaker C: Is that the end of the record?
[00:50:00] Speaker E: Yeah, that's the end.
[00:50:01] Speaker C: Big way to end it. Talk about songs to close it.
[00:50:03] Speaker E: I don't know how we rate this.
[00:50:04] Speaker C: I'd rate it as a whole. Because I was just thinking, going sevens across, make it simple.
[00:50:08] Speaker E: I think you'd have to go sevens across. There's just no way you could not. Frank, what are you going to do?
[00:50:13] Speaker F: I'm going to go eight across.
[00:50:14] Speaker C: Oh, you son of a bitch.
[00:50:16] Speaker E: It up all the time.
[00:50:19] Speaker F: I'm sorry. It was such a great vibe. They mixed it. They went in and out. The hello, Brooklyn song was awesome. I just like the creativity, the mixing, the sound, the lyrics. Everything about it was just really good. Eight's across for me.
[00:50:31] Speaker E: All right, let me play ball. Here we go.
[00:50:35] Speaker F: It's great to be here. Thank you. It's quintuple seven just for Nicolo, Nikki Titty, Baby Clown.
[00:50:41] Speaker E: You fucked up our thing. You could have just said sevens across. But no, you have to do eights.
Well, now everyone knows how good these guys are. If you didn't know how good they are, this is the reason why they're so good. And this is second record. This doesn't take off like some of the stuff later either. Like Frank said, this wasn't a big record when it came out.
[00:50:59] Speaker F: No, this became a cult classic. Then it became a hit. As their popularity grew, fans started to circle back to the earlier stuff. And then eventually this became known as one of the more influential releases during the golden age of hip hop.
[00:51:14] Speaker E: It is a great record. I think. Saxophone, side two. Maybe better than side one.
[00:51:18] Speaker F: It really was.
[00:51:18] Speaker E: Or it's maybe on par. Usually we don't get records that are good all the way through, but this is a very good all the way through.
[00:51:24] Speaker F: Record with side to having a slightly
[00:51:26] Speaker E: better edge, maybe I can see why. So you would say something like that.
[00:51:29] Speaker C: It's a couple of sleepers there for me, I think more than you guys. But overall I'd go back and listen to it again. I think too. An album like this because we break it up sometimes it is a little bit harder to get that full effect. Especially since everything goes into each other. Each other even. Especially that B boy. Booyah Bays is something. Gotta let play and really soak it all in.
[00:51:46] Speaker E: This is definitely a different thing for us and I'm glad it actually finally came up with the wheel. I would like to get maybe the one after this. I would like to get or even the first one again. I haven't heard that in a long, long time. I don't even know if I've really heard the first album all the way through, probably. But again, it's hard to tell because there's such big songs off that first record that you may think you know stuff from there and you may not.
[00:52:06] Speaker C: This is the first time I've heard of Beastie Boys album, album straight through,
[00:52:09] Speaker F: but I'll leave it.
[00:52:09] Speaker E: Or not. I may have heard the first one, but I can't tell you if that's true.
[00:52:12] Speaker C: Though I know my cousin had. I just remember that he had it on vinyl. I don't know if he had anything else.
[00:52:16] Speaker E: Well, this has been great. It's been awesome. All right, Sav, why don't you do your thing?
[00:52:20] Speaker C: We are part of the Deep Dive Podcast Network and the Boneless Podcast Network.
[00:52:24] Speaker D: Boneless, you know, like those chicken wings without the bone.

[00:52:58] Speaker C: Interesting. So it's an interesting thing. Firehouse of the Beastie boys.
[00:53:03] Speaker E: Yeah, there's 1800 albums on there. There's going to be some weird crap that happens.
[00:53:08] Speaker C: Are we close to 19 at all yet.
[00:53:09] Speaker E: Mark or no, I think we're getting close. Yeah, I. More stuff.
[00:53:12] Speaker C: Nice.
[00:53:13] Speaker E: We'll be a 2000 before you know it.

[00:53:20] Speaker C: Ciao. Ciao.
