Grade: B+
The Beastie Boys’ eighth studio album, “Hot Sauce Committee Part Two”, was delayed after Adam “MCA” Yauch was diagnosed with cancer in 2009. The new album was well worth the wait, sounding a lot like their first album “Licensed to Ill”, even revisiting their first hit, “Fight for Your Right” 25 years later. The boys manage to make their old-school sound fresh decades after their inception and make a record for fans new and old.
