Rock and rap categories.
Almost 30 years on it still sounds good IMO.

I am aware of the intricacy of 'Paul's Boutique.' A different sort of masterpiece IMO.

The Beastie Boys’ seminal 1986 debut album, Licensed To Ill, has officially sold more than ten million copies, making it one of a very select group of hip-hop albums to achieve Diamond Status from the RIAA.

I would call it one of the best party albums of all time.

Paul's boutique is better

I hated it and the Beastie Boys when it first came out but I came to respect them and liked a lot of their stuff that came out later.

It's my 3rd favorite of all time
I'd say it's easily top 300 ever

Check Your Head and Ill Communication are both much better. They actually played instruments on these two.

Second in the category only to Limp Bizkit's "Three Dollar Bill Yallz"

Depends on if you really like white rappers.

its probably the 3rd best bestie boys album. I might rate it 4th, as I like in sounds from the way out.

3rd best, which still means that it is a good album. It hit when I was in H.S. Paul Revere was one of the first rap songs that I learned. That album holds a special place with me.
RIP, MCA.

No. Anyone who says yes doesn't even believe themselves.

No. Hell no.
but it is better than the other Beastie Boys albums to me.

Like someone earlier said, I couldn´t stand them when they hit.
Much time has passed.
I have nothing but profound respect for them.

No Sleep till Brooklyn has always been a favorite. I liked She's Crafty, Slow Ride, Fight for Your Right, Paul Revere, Brass Monkey, Time to get Ill. I just hag more favorites on that one I guess.
I don't know, Ill Communication came out in the thick of the alternative era and people mainly just identified with Sabotage. What else? Root Down was good and so was Sure Shot. Then you had that one song with Biz Markie. Get It Together flowed pretty well.
Check Your Head had So Watcha Want, Professor Booty, The Maestro, and... Groove Holmes (great instrumental). I don't know, I just had more favorites on Licensed to Ill.
Some Ole bullshite had Cookie Puss.
Egg Man and Shake Your Rump on Paul's Boutique were choice.
