Licensed To Ill
Description
Universal Music Catalogue are re-pressing and re-issuing a
series of classic albums from Def Jam, the most groundbreaking and inspired
hip hop and urban music label of a generation. Drawing on it’s hugely
impressive catalogue, created in the 21 years. The joke of Licensed
to Ill’s cover–that the Beasties could crash their jet into the side of a
mountain and keep on tickin’–serves as a good metaphor for a career that even
some of their 1986 admirers thought might be over after the one-time-only
shock of this full-length debut. That thousands of funk-junkie wannabes have
since failed at re-creating its groove, breaking-the-law vibe, and ear-
splitting mix of rock and rap is an even better joke. And funniest of all is
the record itself, which packs dexterous boasts, aural puns, and lots and lots
of yelling into a disc that can still be listened to with as much pleasure as
it gave in ’86. –Rickey Wright
