I place this album among the best-produced in hip-hop history. Its 300+ samples will never be able to be duplicated, and its unique artistic approach merits multiple repeat listens. It was definitely a sign of growth from Licensed to Ill, proving that Beastie Boys aspired to be more than just the mischievous punk rock/rapper guys from "(You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party!)" From beginning to end, this album is a masterpiece. R.I.P. MCA.
