Our Take
Our Take
Diving headfirst into the eclectic soundscape of BEASTIE BOYS' sophomore album, "Paul's Boutique," is like embarking on a wild rollercoaster ride through the depths of hip-hop history. Released amidst a sea of confusion in 1989, this record is a sonic kaleidoscope of samples, beats, and rhymes that defy conventional categorisation.
From the infectious groove of "Shake Your Rump" to the nostalgic charm of "Hey Ladies," the Beasties effortlessly blend elements of funk, rock, and jazz with their trademark irreverence and wit. This album is a treasure trove of hidden gems, with each track offering something new and unexpected to keep listeners on their toes.
The production on "Paul's Boutique" is a masterclass in sampling, with the Beasties and their cohort of producers weaving together a dizzying array of sounds to create a rich, immersive sonic landscape. The result is a record that feels both timeless and ahead of its time, a true testament to the innovative spirit of the Beastie Boys.
With its witty wordplay, infectious energy, and boundary-pushing production, "Paul's Boutique" is a testament to the Beastie Boys' enduring legacy as hip-hop pioneers. So grab your headphones, crank up the volume, and get ready to be swept away by the musical madness of this classic album. Trust us, you won't regret it.

Made up of Mike D, MCA, and Ad-Rock, these New York City natives became known for their high-energy performances, clever lyrics, and infectious beats. Their groundbreaking debut album, "Licensed to Ill," was the first rap album to top the Billboard 200 chart and featured hits like "Fight for Your Right" and "No Sleep Till Brooklyn." The group's subsequent releases, including "Paul's Boutique" and "Ill Communication," showcased their genre-bending sound and innovative production techniques. BEASTIE BOYS are also known for their DIY ethos, often producing their own music and directing their own music videos. Their eclectic style and fearless experimentation have influenced countless artists across multiple genres, solidifying their place as icons in the music industry. Despite their success, BEASTIE BOYS have never taken themselves too seriously, always maintaining a sense of humour and a rebellious spirit.
