Inspired by Beastie Boys

Busting down the doors between rock and hip-hop, the Beasties hit home for headbangers and b-boys. No style was safe from MCA, Ad-Rock, and Mike D—the trio funelled influences from hip-hop, punk, rock, reggae, and even Tibetan Buddhist chants into their albums. They went from mirroring their influences to becoming influential themselves, putting their indelible stamp on music and pop culture. Follow their descendents, spreading from Brooklyn (The Budos Band) to Shibuya (Cibo Matto) to Bristol (Massive Attack) and beyond.
