| | Adam Yauch: When we were working on Paul's Boutique, the second album, we started listening to a lot of funk and jazz stuff, looking for samples. | | | Adam Yauch: Lyrically, I was influenced by stuff like Bad Brains and Minor Threat, which were "hardcore" bands that really set a tone for being able to play really loud, powerful music and have the lyrics be really positive. | | | Adam Yauch: I guess what I do is visualize the way that the music should feel or what it should represent. |

| | A shuffling acoustic ballad driven by his surprisingly silky voice and Buddhist sensibility, the song is heartfelt in a way that would have been unthinkable even a few years ago. | | | The Boys' respective homecomings had an undeniable effect on Hello Nasty--discernible not simply in the disc's profusion of old-school 808 beats and NYC guest stars (like Luscious Jackson's Jill Cunniff) but in the settled and introspective vibe that infuses some of the songs. | | | When asked about the origins of the song, Yauch strikes a modest pose. |

| | In between footage of all the acts that made it onto the triple album are chats with the stars, snapshots of saffron-robed Tibetan monks and nuns drifting, with slightly bemused looks, through the crowd, plus a blow-by-blow of the problems in Tibet (1.2 million dead and still counting, tragically). | | | As a stand-alone musical statement, the three disc, 30-plus track Tibetan Freedom Concert is an indie rock lover's wet dream come true, pulling together highlights (and the odd lowlight) from the ’96 and ’97 shows. | | | The Tibetan Freedom Concert launch registered a small blip on the celebrity-spotting radar (two Beastie Boys, one Sonic Youth and a rapper from A Tribe Called Quest). |

| | The Beastie Boys: Like Galileo Dropped the Orange - Article - Stylus Magazine |
| | Maybe Dave Matthews fans were a bit perturbed at the presence of lounge jazz numbers featuring guest vocals by Miho Hatori (of Cibo Matto, another Grand Royal discovery), as well as the bizarre Paul-Mauriat-influenced big-band psychedelia of “Song For the Man,” a putdown of sexism. | | | However, Mixmaster Mike was present on a large number of bizarre, analog-funk-infused songs—we’ll overlook a drum-and-bass flirtation and tenderly sung ballads by the two Adams for the time being, and focus on tracks like the catchy, eccentric “Negotiation Limerick File” and “Intergalactic”—that, for me at least, seemed to mark a revival of the group’s creativity. | | | Worse the wear for on-the-road partying and a bitter, protracted lawsuit with Rubin and Simmons, the band vanished in 1988 and ended up (after Yauch used his modest tour earnings to produce an unheard hardcore supergroup demo) relocating to California and presumably taking a lot of drugs. |
