The new album from those hippie, tibetan-hugging New Yorkers, the Beastie Boys is out. Under normal circumstances I would never listen to cRap, due in large part to the wonderful work that Gangsta rap has done to kill a genre.

Thankfully, there are artists like the Beastie boys who know how to put out a killer album. I'm pretty damn impressed by this album, highlights being "It takes time to build", "Triple trouble", "That's it, That's all" (This one is doubleplus good), and "An Open Letter to NYC". I can just listen to this album over and over again - it doesn't get old quickly at all. Definitely an album worth having in a collection.
