Rescue Mission

Are the Beastie Boys hip-hop's Ridley Scott?

1. Classic early work
BB: License to Ill, Paul's Boutique
RS: Alien, Blade Runner

2. Forgettable 00's
BB: Anti-war song, To the Five Boroughs, instrumental album
RS: Black Hawk Down, Matchstick Men, Kingdom of Heaven, A Good Year, American Gangster, Body of Lies, Robin Hood

3. Last memorable hit circa Y2K
BB: The most recent Beastie Boys single I hear on radio is 1998's "Intergalactic"
RS: Universal marketed 2010's Robin Hood as "from the director of Gladiator," a 10-year-old film

4. Next release mutated
BB: Hot Sauce Committee: Part Two album precedes Part One
RS: Alien prequel became a film set in the Alien universe

In the first single off Hot Sauce Committee: Part Two, MCA recycles Ad-Rock's "we're gonna party for the right to fight" line in "Right Right Now Now."

I'm curious to hear Passion Pit's remix of the song.
