you gotta fight they got a fight for
their right to party
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top ten
Beastie Boys songs
for this list we’ve chosen our entries
based on a combination of the artists
fan favorite and their most commercially
successful songs 10 Paul Revere’s
presenting an imaginary tale of the
Beastie Boys first meeting this track is
creative storytelling at its best
after Run DMC’s Joseph Simmons inspired
the songs first line the tune grew to
become what it is today a rambling epic
of friendship a horse named Paul Revere
and warm beer and what a story it is
number 9 brass monkey
based on the name of a cocktail this
song is the perfect party anthem about
not doing much of anything but having an
amazing time doing it sampling a wild
sugar truck
brass monkey also features a sick
drumbeat produced by an 808 and she’s
back
the song and dance keep us in such a
trance that it reached the Billboard Hot
100 top 50 in 1987 number 8 Hey ladies
beaten sampling this song produces a
memorable breakdown that’s reminiscent
of a 70s disco beat the track’s lyrics
may be largely nonsensical but it still
holds the honour of being the first
single to reach the top 20 of the
Billboard Hot 100 rap singles and modern
Rock Tracks chart
featuring elements of funk and disco the
hip-hop number was accompanied by a
music video inspired by Saturday Night
Fever and blaxploitation movies number
seven shake your rump when it comes to
its lyrics and its beat this song is
simply all over the place the beasties
are known for their use of samples and
shake your rump is the perfect example
it contains beats from Afrika Bambaataa
Led Zeppelin and Diana Ross and The
Supremes among a slew of others with
production help from the Dust Brothers
the boys also make sure to match their
samples with references as varied as
Club Med Fred Flintstone and the Brady
Bunch
and plus we do it
number six Sher Shah okay not many rap
songs can rely on a suit to tie it
together but then again the Beastie Boys
aren’t like many other rap groups of the
flute may give sure-shot its funk and
help bring its listeners in but it’s the
guys yelling of the chorus that really
stays in our heads special thanks goes
to their longtime collaborator DJ
hurricane came up with that for us while
freestyling over the phone
born in the rocking the shoeshine
number five no sleep till Brooklyn any
rapper worth his salt has to have a song
about his hometown the Beastie Boys put
their own spin on their hometown jam by
choosing to rent about life on the road
and their hectic return to New York
meanwhile a sample of a CDC’s TNT gets
the track a rock-and-roll edge as they
scream the song’s refrain
cementing its rap rock sound are the
guitar parts played by Slayers Kerry
King
before intergalactic
with its technology and multiple samples
this alternative hip-hop track was way
different from anything else on the
radio in the late 90s with a repetitive
chorus that uses a voice that almost
resembles a drum
intergalactic creates a bizarre
counterbalance to the boys hyperactive
rhyme
but by far one of their most creative
endeavors the grammy-winning track also
hit the Billboard Hot 100
it’s on the drop girl boy stones on the
me kinky
number three you gotta fight for your
right to party the Beastie Boys are
known for wanting to have a good time
and this song probably has a lot to do
with it you gotta fight for your right
even though it was written in jest fight
for your right has become a
quintessential party anthem
one of their best-known singles the
track is also associated with a cameo
filled music video that was later
revisited in an MCA short film that
followed the events in the original
we’re the real Beastie Boys we’re the
real Beastie Boys number two so what you
want just cuz the Beastie Boys didn’t
start off in the streets doesn’t mean
you should mess with them
with so what you want the hip hop trio
brings their trademark rap swagger and
Crocs your attitude to the four parts
the boys rely on they’re all over the
place rhymes which include lines like to
let everyone know just who they are and
that they’re not going anywhere
and it’s all we want and more before we
unveil our number one pick here are a
few honorable mentions
clean up my room
now we’re gonna kick it gonna kick it
yeah
number one sabotage
this song perfectly represents what the
Beastie Boys do
by seamlessly merging their wrongs with
a heavy rock and roll guitar beat
sabotage helped solidify their place in
rap hood
the only thing more dope than the actual
song is its Spike Jonze directed music
video
which has the band’s members playing
actors portraying cops in the style of
1970s police shows
