I have read great reviews about their music but I have never liked even one of their songs.

The just seem corny to me,can some one tell me my they are so highly regarded.

it's one of those things that's hard to understand in retrospect

but their sound was new, and very influential. cats like Cube are always talking about how they were trying to imitate the Beasties

it's hard to understand now, but songs like Paul Revere were groundbreaking. on that song they're talking about drinking beer, guns, fights, and doing "her with the wiffle-ball bat". that stuff really wasn't in the music at the time

I guess it's their voices

I might like the song if Slick Rick was the rapper
