That's sort of like answering "Kurtis Blow", because he's the guy who showed hip hop could be viable on a major label, so technically, no one gets big without him. But hat sorta misses the point of the exercise. I like Run-DMC a lot, but the Beasties are far better wordsmiths and took rap to a new level past the foundation they built.

And I'd agree it's Ad Rock.

They are a team and great together, but if I had to pick one I'd also vote Ad-Rock - I love the guitar on the In Sound from Way Out! He also added keys when money mark wasn't involved.

Ad-Rock was the best, but MCA was the coolest.

Like a lemon to a lime, a lime to a lemon

Ad-Rock is not an underrated BB and is also the best BB.

Mike D was the weakest of the 3 IMO

This thread makes me sad because MCA was my favorite. I was fortunate to see them at Voodoo 2004 show. Somehow I managed to be only a few feet from the stage. Was a great show. I had plans to see them one more time on their 2011-2012 tour at ACL, but they had to pull out. Still bummed about MCA's death.

Yea Ya Right! RIP MCA

They are actually renaming a park after him in NY

Well I'm Mike D and I'm back from the dead, chillin' at the beaches down at Club Med.
Make another record cause the people they want more of this, suckers they be saying they can take out Adam Horovitz.
