Formed as a New York City hardcore band
in 1981, the Beastie Boys struck an unlikely
path to global hip-hop superstardom. Here,
band members Adam Ad-Rock Horovitz and
Michael Mike D Diamond tell the bands
story, offering revealing accounts of their
transition from teenage punk musicians
to social activists and important cultural
figures. Their text is accompanied by a
profusion of photographs, illustrations and
contributions from writers and cultural
figures including Colson Whitehead,
Jonathan Lethem, Spike Jonze, Amy Poelher
and Wes Anderson. Covering everything from
the overnight success of their debut album
and its mega-hit Fight for Your Right (To
Party) to their break with Def Jam and the
death of founding co-member Adam MCA
Yauch, this book is as unique and fascinating
as the band itself.
