The Beastie Boys is a 20th century band and rap trio which has continued to perform concerts for over a thousand years, in which they increased their discography from five albums to seven.
The Beastie Boys played a concert at Madison Cube Garden in 3000, and Fry was eager to see them for the first time in 1000 years (1ACV09). Leela found them to be busting mad rhymes with an 80% success rate, which Bender qualified as technically "ill". Bender met his old friend Fender at the concert, and Fender introduced the crew to the Boys. However, the Boys weren't really interested in meeting them. Later, after Bender is captured by the Robot Devil, they are seen employed by the Robot Devil to perform with him on level 5 of Robot Hell.
Production
Ken Keeler and David X. Cohen went to New York for 3 days to wait for the Beastie Boys to call, so they could record their lines for the episode.[1] Unfortunately, they never called, and so they returned to Los Angeles and later made the recordings with the band's members separately.[1] However, Adam "MCA" Yauch had scheduling conflicts with the recording session, so Adam "King Adrock" Horovitz voiced Yauch instead.[1]
In the scene where the band sings "Sabotage" in a cappella, it was originally intended to be "(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party!)", but apparently they didn't want to do it.[2]
Additional Info
Trivia
