[edit] White(y)

I've looked all over my original pressing of this album and there's no "White(y)" anywhere on it. It's just "Whitey". Renamed accordingly. Tverbeek 00:53, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] BEEF THIS ARTICLE UP!

Oh come on, this album is so forward-thinking. Sometimes I wonder "what if the Beastie Boys recorded their early work like this?", hip-hop might have sounded quite different. sure, it wasn't a very influential album, but I have never heard anything (except the krautrock that inspired it) that was so latent. There's so much to say about this album, its shots at pop culture, etc. Someone pull out their copy of "confusion is next"!! (i've lost mine). Also, imagine if this album met with critical acclaim, might SY have done things differently? I'd especially love to see quote-mining about this album by the artists...
