Mike D and Ad Rock from the Beastie Boys stopped by the Kevin & Bean show this morning on the release date of their album, Hot Sauce Committee Part 2.

We’ve had a lot of Beasties over a lot of years, and they summed it up this morning with a simple “you’re welcome.” They’re a group that’s in it for the long haul – partly because they love what they do and are good at it, and partly because they “really don’t have anything else [they] know how to do. [Their] skill sets are lacking in other areas.”

Their long-form music video, Fight For Your Right Revisited has the greatest list of stars in any film I’ve ever seen. It’s incredible the caliber of talent that the Boys were able to pull together for this project. The were originally working with Swiss director, Nathanial Hörnblowér, but that things didn’t go so well this time around, so the task fell onto the shoulders of Adam Yauch and the rest of the Beastie Boys.
