6 Musicians Who Hate You For Listening To Their Music

3. Beastie Boys

By now the Beastie Boys have cemented their legacy as one of the most influential hip-hop acts of all time, stringing together album after album of pure genius for nearly three decades. When you think of old-school hip-hop, you no doubt think of Run-DMC, Grandmaster Flash, and the Beastie Boys. Or, if you're one of those people, you think of "(You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party)." And if you are one of those people, you don't belong at a Beastie Boys show. Meant as a satirical take on the dopey, brainless party songs of the era, like Twisted Sister's "I Wanna Rock," their breakthrough hit unfortunately went on to define the early part of the Beastie Boys' career. Try as they may, they couldn't quite escape the legions of backwards cap-wearing neanderthals who unironically loved their joke song. Mike D put it best when he said, "We might have reinforced certain values of some people in our audience when our own values were actually totally different. There were tons of guys singing along to "Fight for Your Right" who were oblivious to the fact it was a total goof on them."Hear that, jockey frat boys? The Beastie Boys are not fans of you and find it weird that you're fans of them. So just stop it already.
