Who would have thought a trio of white kids would be rapping on the classic dance-show, Soul Train, in 1987? Ad-Rock, MCA and Mike D weren’t just a “trio of white kids,” though. They were the future of Hip Hop and their energy was through the roof. Ask any veteran emcee and they’ll tell you, the key to longevity in the rap game is having a memorable stage show. The Beasties were known for capitalizing on the entire stage and having the crowd sing along every word while they did so. Checkout this classic clip from the Boys rocking on Soul Train in 1987, below!
