The Beastie Boys sans MCD were in attendance last night to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame and Mike D and Ad-Rock were presented the honor by Public Enemy’s own Chuck D. A special tribute performance took place afterwards featuring The Roots, Travie McCoy and Kid Rock. You can watch the entire ceremony Monday, May 5th on HBO. The Beastie’s now have the right to party forever.

New York City native ANTHM was on the attack in his last video, but this time he switches it up with a more laid back approach as he takes on “Never Do” by The Roots featuring Raphael Saadiq. Take a stroll through NYC with ANTHM and hear him wax poetics about his trials and aspirations over this cool ’96 joint. This one will live on his When We Were Kings mixtape.
This will be The Roots 13th studio album. It drops December 6th.

Picking up where last week’s “Make My” video left off, The Roots deliver more visuals, this time for “Tip The Scale” off of their forthcoming LP, UNDUN. A summary of the project can be found below.
undone is the story of this kid who becomes a criminal, but he wasn’t born criminal. He’s not the nouveau exotic primitive bug-eyed gunrunner… he’s actually thoughtful and is neither victim nor hero. Just some kid who begins to order his world in a way that makes the most sense to him at a given moment… At the end of the day… isn’t that what we all do?
