• 3 Bad Brothers A Beastie Boys Breakdown- The Mix Up & Hot Sauce Committee pt 2

  It's summertime, the living is easy, and we figured why not play a doubleheader? Today on Dad Bod Rap Pod, hosts Demone Carter, David Ma and Nate LeBlanc with help from Producer Cutso break down the final albums in the Beastie Boys' Catalog. First up is the Mix Up from 2007, the only official instrumental LP in their catalog, since In Sound From Way Out is a compilation. The Boys established a dress code and payed homage to their favorite wordless acts and we have thoughts about it. Is it "classic material" or "placid material?" There's only one way to find out. Then we turn our attention to 2011's Hot Sauce Committe pt 2, the Beastie Boys' last album. In some ways it is a return to form, bringing back their signature processed vocals and combining eclectic musical styles in the way that only they can. We also spend some time discussing the elaborate record nerd mythology they attempted to establish in the liner notes. While we have discussed, dissected, debated and ranked every Beasties album, we are not quite done yet. Tune in next week for the Beastie Boys song draft, a celebrations of a great rap group, featuring selections from our hosts and calls form friends of the program from around the world.

• 3 Bad Brothers A Beastie Boys Breakdown- To The 5 Boroughs

  This week Dad Bod Rap Pod hosts Demone Carter, David Ma, and Nate LeBlanc alongside Producer Cutso, are breaking down the Beastie Boys' fifth album, To The 5 Boroughs. Where their previous few records had been eclectic mixes of jammy, loungey instrumental songs, punk egergy, and hard-hitting leftfield hip-hop, for this album the Boys decided to approach early 2000s America with an old-school hip-hop sensibility. As you will hear, we are not fans of this choice. Since we didn't really care for this record, we devote a lot of this episode to talking about Grand Royal, the Beastie Boys' magazine and record label. The magazine is an important and now quite rare document of the Boys' hipster sensibilities that shined a light on a lot of creative people. It's probably one of the coolest things that a major band could have done for their listeners in a pre-internet age. The record label was a bit more hit and miss but also a worthwhile endeavor that shut down just as it was starting to get interesting by signing some fascinating underground MCs. Thanks to everyone who has joined us on the album-by-album look into the Beasties' fascinating career.

• 3 Bad Brothers A Beastie Boys Breakdown- Hello Nasty with guest Open Mike Eagle

  * Please note: This is an edited version of the episode, we have been forced to remove the interstitial music that is part of what makes the show unique. Extended episodes with more clips and music are available at patreon.com/dadbodrappod * In the pivotal fifth installment of our Beastie Boys miniseries, the Boys have moved back to New York and they are hopping around different studios demoing ideas that will eventually lead to their album Hello Nasty, a sprawling and eclectic work that fuses all of their previous modes into one sound that we call the "Beastie singularity." Rather than jamming and finding ideas in the edit, this time around they are fusing their record collections, old school hip-hop sensibility and guest vocalists into one well-produced mix which many BB fans and the band themselves hold as their best album. Joining DBRP hosts Demone Carter, David Ma and Nate LeBlanc to break this all down is iconic rap artist, podcaster, and hip-hop commentator Open Mike Eagle. One of hip-hop's most astute observers, Mike details his longstanding relationship with Hello Nasty in his inimitable smart, funny way. Be sure to pre-order his new album Neighborhood Gods Unlimited ahead of its release on July 11th. Big shouts to our main man Cutso for joining us on the mic for this album, he helps us understand the vital role that Mixmaster Mike played in re-energizing the Beastie Boys live experience right as their hair began to gray. All in all, this is a really fun episode about an album that we admire but have a few of our customary quibbles with, especially with its length and sequencing. Please share your feedback in the comments. 3 Bad Brothers, A Beasties Boys Breakdown is a production of Dad Bod Rap Pod Hosted By Demone Carter, David Ma, and Nate LeBlanc Executive Produced by Nate LeBlanc Produced by Demone Carter and Paolo “Cutso” Bello  Edited by Demone Carter and Nate LeBlanc  Engineering and Post-Production by Paolo “Cutso” Bello Artwork by Rory Simms Photography by Stephanie Barajas  Youtube version produced by Paolo “Cutso” Bello Theme song written and recorded by Defcee and Produced by Cutso Dad Bod Rap Pod is distributed by Open Mike Eagle’s Stony Island Audio

• 3 Bad Bothers A Beastie Boys Breakdown- Ill Communication with guest Kenny Segal

  This week we are breaking down Ill Communication as part of our miniseries entitled 3 Bad Brothers A Beastie Boys Breakdown. DBRP hosts Nate LeBlanc, David Ma and Demone Carter are joined by one of the very best producers in hip-hop, Kenny Segal, who knows a thing or two about blending disparate elements into a cohesive whole, as the Beasties did on one of their most successful records. In the popular imagination, the Beasties' anthemic rock song Sabotage and its iconic video are probably the highlights from this record, but for us rap nerds, it also contains some of their very best alternative hip-hop songs. We get into some specifics about Sure Shot, Flute Loop and of course Get It Together, the mostly-freestyled jam they recorded with Q-Tip from A Tribe Called Quest. At the end of the episode we rank the album on our 5-point rubric, talking about the best beats, rhymes and magic moments, as well as the album's lasting cultural impact and replay-ability. We'd love to hear from all of you, what do you think of this album? Leave a comment with any thoughts. Please make sure to listen to the very end to hear a snippet of Kenny's one and only Beasties remix, which may in an alternative timeline have been released on Grand Royal and changed the course of his life. 3 Bad Brothers A Beastie Boys Breakdown is a production of Dad Bod Rap Pod Hosted By Demone Carter, David Ma, and Nate LeBlanc Executive Produced by Nate LeBlanc Produced by Demone Carter and Paolo “Cutso” Bello  Edited by Demone Carter and Nate LeBlanc  Engineering and Post-Production by Paolo “Cutso” Bello Artwork by Rory Simms Photography by Stephanie Barajas  Youtube version produced by Paolo “Cutso” Bello Theme song written and recorded by Defcee and Produced by Cutso Dad Bod Rap Pod is distributed by Open Mike Eagle’s Stony Island Audio
