Beastie Boys - Hold It Now - Hit It! Lyrics

That was one of my first tape cassettes I owned was Beastie Boys Licence to ill on tape this was my shit hold it now, hit it and Paul Revere was my shit too you know Eric B. and Rakim sampled off this song for their song the Rhyme goes on the part where they say pump it up homeboy. it was on the paid in full album. when they Eric B. and Rakim had on their big gold chains on with that fat Medallion I know you old school cats remember that album

Miss that time

Now I chill real ill when I start to chill
When I fill my pockets with a knot of dollar bills
Sipping pints of ale out the window sill
When I get my fill I'm chilly chill

Now I just got home because I'm out on bail
What's the time? It's time to buy ale
Peter eater, parking meter all of the time
If I run out of ale, it's Thunderbird wine

Miller drinking, chicken eating, dress so fly
I got friends in high places that are keeping me high
Dow with Mike D. And it ain't no hassle
Got the ladies of the eighties from here to White Castle

Hold it now (hold it now, hold it now) hit it!

Now its me Adam Yauch in the place to be
And all the girls are on me cause I'm down with Mike D.
I'm down with Mike D. And it ain't no baloney
For real, not phony, "O.E." and Rice-a-Roni

I come out at night 'cause I sleep all day
Well, I'm the King Adrock and he's M.C.A.
Well I'm cruising, I'm bruising, I'm never ever losing
I'm in my car, I'm going far and dust is what I'm using

Around the way is where I'm from
And I'm from Manhattan and I'm not a bum
Because you're pud-slapping, ball-flapping, got that juice
My name's Mike D. And I can do that Jerry Lewis

Hold it now (hold it now, hold it now) hit it!

Hip-hop, body rockin', doing the do
Beer drinking, breath stinking, sniffing glue
Belly flipping, always illing, busting caps
My name's Mike D. And I write my own snaps

I'm a peep-show seeking on the forty-deuce
I'm a killer at large and I'm on the loose
Pistol packing, Monkey drinking, no money bum
I come from Brooklyn 'cause that's where I'm from

Cheap-skate, perpetrating, money hungry jerk
Everyday I drink a "O.E." and I don't go to work
You drippy nose knuckle-head, you're wet behind the ears
You like men, and we like beer (beer, beer, beer)

Hold it now, hit it!

King of the Ave. With the Def female
You're rhyming and stealin' with the freshest ale
Cooling at the crib watching my TV
Ed Norton (Ted Knight) and Mr. Ed

Pump it up homeboy, just don't stop
Chef Boy-are-dee cooling on the pot
I take no slack 'cause I got the knack
And I'm never dusting out 'cause I torch that crack

The King Adrock, that is my name
And you're drinking Moet, we got the champagne
A quarter dropping, going shopping buying wigs
Surgeon general cut professor D.J. Thigs

Hold it now (hold it now, hold it now), hit it!
Hit it! (Hit it, hit it, hit it, hit it)
Hold it now (hit it!)
Yo Leroy!

Hold it now!

😂😂😂😂 why I always thought they were black lmao

Shout out to the first white boys that got the invite to the cookout! (Well them and the Red Hot Chili Peppers lol) These were the first and only white cats of their time back then...pay homage!

Not to be dramatic, but I'd die for Ad Rock

I'm 50 years old and I still crank this as loud as i can. Miss the 80s !!

It wouldn't be a beastie boys song without mentioning White Castle😁

Beer budget was more than the video budget

Rappers now ain’t this cool

At first i thought Ad-Rock Was Mike D

These qhite boys have soul I miss music like This!!!

This is my first time seeing this video in my 45 years. one of my favorite jams! they were some weird ass dudes tho

This album is really top 10 in hip hop history

So mike d is on cocaine

Mca is drunk

Kid rock is on everything

Do you know how shitty it would be if miracle babies mattered?

So glad I was a teenager when this dropped...it was our Anthem, for real. Hip Hop was all about peace, UNITY, love & having a mother f*cking party!!! Best years of my life!

Yo, Leroy!

Ad-Rock should make more faces in this video

Dam these guys are excellent

so much of my childhood was bumping this Sh*t

Head hoppin body rockin a doing a doo

white boys who were products of their environment. long live the South Bronx.

Awww man this was that real sat night summer making dat' run to white castle!!!!

Ad Rock was cute when he didn't make those faces.

Smart Ass Punks or were they Rappers or Rockers? Smart Asses! Is it Cool to say Cool anymore? I’m Old and like Beer!

I love them so much.

I need to take off for a minute

I keep seeing light streaks

I got my friends in my Benz with a couple of friends who think that everything is better with a fish eye lens.

This my kut

Mall grab

They partied and got laid like a mafuka.

I wish people were still this fun :(

Best white boys on earth

All I can I say as an early Hip Hoper from the early 80s, Rick Rubin, the infamous Def Jam co-founder and producer did two things that immensely shift the narrative of Hip Hop, especially in 1984, which was, number one, signing the Infamous, Dope, Beastie Boys, and number two, singing what we had called him back then, The Prince Of Hip Hop Aka LL Cool J who most certainly revolutionized the game Tremendously.

Record company forcin image. . Afterwards.B-boys B true.. Still love the early ..R.I.P. M.C.A...B-boys 4 LIFE

When he said "I come from Brooklyn cause that's where I'm from"...




I felt that.

Beastie Boyz forever the legends of Rap. RIP MCA aka Adam Yauch.

It’s 2019....how come I’ve never seen a video for this until now 🤷🏻‍♂️

My man TOM BOYLE put me onto these guys. He was pushin weight gettin swoll in the basement. Ma dooks trippin bangin a broom handle on the floor, cause the box was boomin! Yo..TRICK you out there, get ahold of me somehow.
