The Beasties sixth album proper is, in turns, a tribute to their beloved hometown, a stand against the US administration, and an entertaining window in MCA, Mike D and Ad Rock's goofy world. It's the most straight up hip hop album since 1989's Pauls Boutique with the old skool Ch-Check it Out and the rapper's delight sampling Triple Trouble. The album was released on June 14, 2004.
