Beastie Boys vs. Beck
"Hey Fuck You" by Beastie Boys, from To The 5 Boroughs (2004)
First of all, the name of the track is 'Hey Fuck You.' Second of all, MCA gets his yid on immediately, dropping 'schnooks' into the song's first line. Third of all, it's the Beastie Boys. Get your middle fingers ready and sing-along.
"New Pollution" by Beck, from Odelay (1996)
I think Beck is a genius. This song, from the second album in which he emerged from one-hit 'loser' status and began to weave a tapestry of adventurous, swirling albums. Beck explores all avenues musically, which is why his songs are such a treat to listen to. This one rides a pounding snare and bass sample colluded by mechanical pops and whirs and Beck's dusty vocals. It's genius.
THE WINNER: Hey, fuck you Beasties, Beck wins this one.
