Considering that the band was formed over 30 years ago, not really.
When they first came out they werent hip (even if they were hip hop) they were more a bratty college boy band and although they became cooler and respected a few years later their music was always naturally aimed at their own age group (with the themes references etc).
Oh well maybe I'm the old man here!

yup, I am a guy in his sixties, and I bought that beastie boys album when it came out- when, my guess would be, "you were still sucking on you mamma's tit, man", to quote the Beastie Boys.
Remember, hip hop and rap started at the same time as punk rock- in about 76. So you have to be pretty old to have been listening to rap, or punk or even metal, since it started.
not to say I dont also appreciate a bit of rock nacional, especially of the 70s, which was the era for us sixty year olds...

I was 11 when I bought -Licence To Ill- so with that in mind you might understand why I was suprised that someone 20 + years older than me bought the same album. They were barely in their twenties and were singing/rapping pretty juvenile stuff in a juvenile way hence as an 11 yr old I liked them. But if you got something else out of it then what ever floats your boat, whatever lights your cigar. If you'd first bought -Paul's Boutique- maybe I would have been less suprised...
