Hip Hop groups such as A Tribe Called Quest and the Wu Tang Clan have had documentaries on them, so it is only fitting that the Beastie Boys have a documentary about them as well.
Famed director and frequent collaborator Spike Jonze has directed the Beastie Boys documentary titled ‘Beastie Boys Story.” Spike Jonze just released the first trailer of the Beastie Boys Story and it begins with one of the most recognizable intro in Hip Hop “Now here’s a little story that I’ve got to tell/ About three bad brothers that you know so well,” the Beastie Boys rap to open the trailer, fittingly reciting lines from “Paul Revere.”
