Beastie Boys - So What'Cha Want 

Beavis- “this looks like the weather channel” Butthead- “yeah, forecast for today: pretty cool”

Played this to my ten year old daughter she said it was terrible she's now doing well with her foster family

In 1992 when this song arrived my son was a toddler and loved this song! I would rap, "What cha what cha want for breakfast" and he would just scream with laughter

Still never gets old 2024!

Sitting here doing my taxes with Beastie Boys going in the background. Damn I'm old.

I'm 85 and was rocking this in 1993 at the age of 60!!!!! Still cold rocking the scene in 18k.....😛

One of the most important musical acts of the hiphop scene. These guys are literally rap gods. Killer flow

One of the best Beastie Boys songs ever made.

"...as cool as a cucumber." Yes you were, Mr. Adam Yauch. Miss him terribly.

Future people of the world, make sure this song lives forever.

Being in your 20s in the ‘90s was the BEST.

I'm 41 and this song still absolutely slaps like it's nobody's business. A timeless classic.

That has got to be the sickest drumbeat I’ve ever heard

2022 and this song sounds better than ever. Legends don’t die.

"You think that you can front when Revelation comes ?" is one of the sickest lines in rap history ! It's mirroring the idea of "Hey sinner man, where you gonna run to ?". The BBs are legend.

R.I.P. Adam. The world was a much better place when these 3 ruled it.

Im 49 and beastys never left my heart, ever. We are GEN X Tells it all

my dad recommended this to me 2 years ago, this is his 1 year anniversary of his death, and it popped up in my recommended. I gotta say, thanks dad, this shit slaps.

This song was ahead of it's time, aswell as the music video, you can hear its influence in alternative music still.

World's Greatest Ever Hip Hop Leap at 0:30

I saw them 5 times in San Francisco. I'm 76 and they are my favorite band of all time. My favorite album of their is Paul's Boutique and it's my favorite album of all time. In 1990 I brought the cassette of that album to Greek islands and a snack bar, just up the hill from the beach played both sides of the album over and over, all day and very loud. European women were dancing with their tops off in the water and on the beach. American women don't take their tops off. It was such an amazing day. I live in Cambodia and just a month ago I bought a Beastie Boy poster by Frank Kozik with Bruce Lee on it from a show they did with Luscious Jackson in Prague. Outrageous poster. I miss them.

the Beastie Boys are truly one of the greatest rap groups of all time

I love the fact that three Jewish dudes from NYC made such a huge impact in hiphop- they’re if not a pillar, at least a cornerstone of it!

Thrift store clothes and one cameraman in a wooded area = all-time classic music video.

This is my next door neighbor's favorite song. He listens to it all day at top volume. Whether he wants to or not.

I love how they were all equal like none of them were like the face of the group they all had the same amount of input, screen time in the vids, amount of lyrical content literally no ego's or jealousy of one another .plus they were literally all about having a good time thats why they were so universally beloved

The groove of this song is just insane.

I’m 41 and I like to listen to this as loud as I did when I was 13-14.

I really miss this style of hip hop. Nothing today is even close.

In my opinion,M.C.A(may he rest in peace)had one of the greatest voices in hip-hop history.

I'm 763,812 years old and this slaps just as it hard as it did when all the Denisovans rocked it leaving Africa for Eurasia. Man those were some times.

I grew up with the beastie boys. I'd give anything to go back to these days. 2020 sucks. Lol

If I owned a country, this would be the National Anthem.

Compression and distortion used perfectly.

I've been listening to this great track since 1992 !! IT DOES NOT GET OLD

Jesus, early-mid 90s is like fine wine.

these guys were ahead of their time, this will always be relevant in art.

As a kid, I was always an Ad-Rock guy. But today I have so much more appreciation for the unmistakable flow of MCA. Effortlessly cool and hypnotically smooth.

The best part about the music of my youth is it still rocks 35 years later, and it’s better than anything being made today.

Nothing will ever be cooler than this was.

Perfect songs dont exi...

Ad-Rock’s jumping at the beginning of the song kills me every time. Long live the Beastie Boys!

Beastie Boys are a milestone in rap history.

“Cooler than a cucumber in a bowl of hot sauce.” Lol

My favorite Beasties song... 10 years since MCA's passing, I heard it on the radio today and was blown away, a wave of nostalgia came over me... These guys were so important in my youth! you're forever in our hearts Adam!

That beat is so fucking ill, and the flow, though!

NEVER. EVER. GETS. OLD. one of the sickest beats ever. let it flow like a mud slide.

Timeless classic. They came out when I was in junior high school. I'm 49 and they still rock.

I am 45 years old and still jamming when this song plays

My neighbors truly love Beastie Boys and this song in particular. I make sure of that.

I remember seeing this as a teenager and thinking, "Damn, some day I'm gonna be cool like these guys." I'm almost 50 and still waiting.

Rest in power MCA

47...and still banging my head listening this shit!!! Beasty boys the legend

Its 2019, im 46, few beers in me and its like im 15 again. Bad jam! 8)

That bass line is so deep and heavy, plus some dope rhymes makes such a great song. There’s nothing like the beastie boys

The reason I love beasty boys is cuz their voices compliment each other

This song is sick, you can't front on that.

Underrated song, and still hits hard to this day.🤟

The beastie boys have got to be the "dopest" hip hop outfit of all time in my opinion! Long live The original B boys. NA1974🇬🇧.

Back in 1993 I was 12 years old. I went for a walk down to the neighborhood park to meet some friends, and found a blank mix tape on the bleachers. This was the first song on the tape, and the very first song I ever heard of the Beastie Boys. Absolutely fell in love with them.

The Beastie Boys were something else. They did what they wanted, followed their artistic vision , gave us some of the best music and all while having a lot of fun.

Classic, in my opinion Best Beastie Boys song!!!!!

😎 that is how i fell every time i listen to this song

Can we all agree this is one of the hardest rap songs of all time?

god damn, this song has aged so fricken well. I think I like it more now than when I first heard it.

The first BB song I ever heard. One of the perks of being old is having lived through MTV playing music. Like all day! They really did!

Here in 2024 🔥

Easily one of the greatest music videos of all time

I can NOT be a good Dad without introducing this song to my son. Yes, he LOVES this Beastie song. It's his "Hype Song" for baseball...

Man I'm just stoked at how great of a group they really were. I'm a new beasties fan and they are just the shit.

If this song is not on your playlist you are not a child of the era.

Without this there would be no “boats and hos”

When this came out it was groundbreaking 30 years later it still is. The 90s was beautiful. (Edited for time error felt like 25 years ago apparently im 5 years out with my chronology)

This is the song that made this thrasher really open up to them. And why? Because it was actually played on Headbangers ball! lol. What a heavy groove! I got my 6 year old into this years ago and she was singing the chorus in front of her pre k director at the time. He turned to me and asked is she really singing Beastie Boys?! Lol. Great memories. Daughter is now 14 and I’m 51 and we still jam to this together. So definitely in the top 5 for me

Who knew that 3 Jewish kid's from Brooklyn NY would become the greatest rap group of all time! Legendary! Goosebumps! Real talk! Beastie boys forever!

Simply the heaviest groove you'll ever hear. As a hard rock fan, that's some statement.

this shit is borderline experimental even for 2021

I miss the 90's

Who knew 3 Jewish kid's from Brooklyn NY would become the greatest rap group of all time! Legendary! Goosebumps! Real talk! Beastie boys forever!!!!!!!!

Still a masterpiece after 2 decades

this should be played at high volume preferably in a residential area

RIP John Berry.

LITERALLY one of the COOLEST SONGS OF ALL TIME!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

If you play at 2X the speed, you can see the actual speed they filmed this in. It is impressive how fast they were rapping. That is why this video has to be appreciated for breaking new ground in music video production. Just amazing.

My favourite Beastie Boys song. No doubt about it.

one of the best music vids ever

Big up to Gen-X our sounds were the shits! Peace out !

Just plug me in just like I was Eddie Harris You're eating crazy cheese like you'd think I'm from Paris You know I get fly You think I get high You know that I'm gone and I'ma tell you all why So tell me who are you dissing Maybe I'm missing the reason that you're smiling or wilding So listen in my head I just want to take 'em down Imagination set loose and I'm gonna shake 'em down Let it flow like a mud slide When I get on I like to ride and glide I've got depth of perception in my text y'all I get props at my mention 'cause I vex y'all So what'cha, what'cha, what'cha want (What'cha want) I get so funny with the money that you flaunt (You flaunt) I said where'd you get your information from, huh? You think that you can front when revelation comes Yeah You can't front on that Well they call me Mike D the ever loving man I'm like Spoonie Gee well I'm the metropolitician You scream and you holler about my Chevy Impala But the sweat is getting wet around the ring around your collar But like a dream I'm flowing without no stopping Sweeter than a cherry pie with ready whip topping Going from mic to mic kicking it wall to wall Well I'll be calling out you people like a casting call Well it's wack when you're jacked in the back of a ride With your know with your flow when you're out getting by Believe me What you see is what you get And you see me I'm coming off as you can bet Well I think I'm losing my mind this time This time I'm losing my mind, that's right Said I think I'm losing my mind this time This time I'm losing my mind Yeah You can't front on that But little do you know about something that I talk about I'm tired of driving it's due time that I walk about But in the meantime, I'm wise to the demise I've got eyes in the back of my head so I realize Well I'm Dr. Spock I'm here to rock y'all I want you off the wall if you're playing the wall I said what'cha, what'cha, what'cha want (What'cha want) I said what'cha, what'cha, what'cha want (What'cha want) Y'all suckers write me checks and then they bounce So I reach into my pocket for the fresh amount See I'm the long leaner vincent the cleaner I'm the illest motherfucker from here to Gardena Well I'm as cool as a cucumber in a bowl of hot sauce You've got the rhyme and reason but no cause Well if you're hot to trot, you think you're slicker than grease I've got news for you crews you'll be sucking like a leech Yeah You can't front on that So what'cha, what'cha, what'cha want (What'cha want) So what'cha, what'cha, what'cha want (What'cha want) I said what'cha, what'cha, what'cha want (What'cha want) I said what'cha, what'cha, what'cha want (So what'cha want)

We hear it now and it's a recognizable sound, but when "Check Your Head" came out in '92, nothing in hip hop sounded like this.

Three Jewish boys from Brooklyn crushing the rap scene a generation before Eminem. 🔥

It's somewhat sad, but every time I see a beastie boys video I realise how right they were to stop making music after Yauch's death. It just wouldn't work without the three MC's...It's rare to see a group where each person contributes equally and differently

I played this song to my friend but he didn't like it. He's not my friend anymore.

55 and still jamming

❤ Beastie Boys ❤

I miss the 90’s, music did not suck and nobody cared what you looked like. If you were cool, you were cool and nothing else mattered.

"Suckers write me checks / and then they bounce / so I reach into my pockets for the fresh amounts." I was a DJ at a college radio station when this came out and I played this song as often as I could. Still one of their best, it just stomps like nothing else.

2020. RIP MCA

The world needs these guys right now

They were ahead of their time. Also looks like they had fun making it. Brings a tear to my eye thinking about how much has changed since this came out. Not just in our country but the world. This reminds me of a more carefree,worry free time. Thanks.

Bought the vinyl 30 years ago, then the cd, now I'm streaming it....and who'd ever thought that Ren paid a beautiful hommage with his song What you Want in 2022. Absolutely inspiring!
