Hello Nasty

Eclectic, futuristic, and overflowing with energy—Beastie Boys' Hello Nasty is a genre-smashing, turntable-spinning, intergalactic masterpiece. Released in 1998, this album saw Mike D, MCA, and Ad-Rock expanding their sound, fusing hip-hop, funk, reggae, electro, and punk into a chaotic yet perfectly balanced sonic explosion. With Mix Master Mike bringing his scratch-heavy turntablism into the mix, Hello Nasty is as sharp, witty, and unpredictable as ever.

From the instantly recognizable Intergalactic, with its robotic funk groove, to the laid-back island vibes of Three MC’s and One DJ and the gritty boom-bap of Body Movin’, every track pushes boundaries while keeping the Beasties' signature irreverence intact. This album is a testament to their ability to reinvent themselves without losing the essence of what makes them great.

Now available on high-quality vinyl, Hello Nasty delivers every dusty breakbeat, deep bass hit, and razor-sharp rhyme with pure analog warmth.
