Mt. Rushmore of Pop Culture References in Beastie Boys Songs (with Alex Gradet)
Manage episode 373976915 series 1011888
Few musical artists have been as pop culture savvy as the Beastie Boys. Their lyrics include a litany of references to obscure musicians, athletes, TV shows and films. It can feel like you need Wikipedia up to "get" all of the references, but somehow it always works.
This week we're exploring the encyclopedic world of Beastie Boys pop culture references. And we've got a certified Beastie Boys expert in the house with good friend of the show Alex Gradet, who has more hits than Rod Carew.
