The Beastie Boys’ debut studio album Licensed to Ill is celebrating 31 years. Hands down Licensed to Ill is one of my favorite albums, I even have it on vinyl. Licensed to Ill made history as the first rap LP to top the Billboard album chart. The album went platinum and in 2015 went diamond. The biggest hits from the album are Brass Monkey, No Sleep till Brooklyn and of course (You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party!). To honor the iconic album here are three of my favorite songs.
