The Beastie Boys' Paul's Boutique

Dan LeRoy

Derided as one-hit wonders, estranged from their original producer and record label, and in self-imposed exile in Los Angeles, the Beastie Boys were written off by most observers before even beginning to record their second album - an embarrassing commercial flop that should have ruined the group's career. But not only did "Paul's Boutique" eventually transformed the Beasties from a fratboy novelty to hiphop giants, its sample-happy, retro aesthetic changed popular culture forever. Duration - 3h 26m. Author - Dan LeRoy. Narrator - Stacy Carolan. Published Date - Wednesday, 29 January 2025. Copyright - © 2006 Dan LeRoy ©.
