![r/futurama - Ad-Rock on his Futurama appearance](http://web.archive.org./web/20240509225907im_/https://preview.redd.it/utx9mio1ful81.png?width=640&crop=smart&auto=webp&s=91b6f0f5ec59b10a4ab192c11db8ae81033f44ba)
Each of them has a unique and distinguishable voice but Ad-Rock's is definitely my favourite.
I was wondering what kind of singing/rapping style does he have? From what I can hear, he likes to whine in his verses, elongating the end of a word (if that makes sense). For example, Hold It Now Hit It "You're rhymin and stealin with the freshest aleee" and Paul Revere "I said I didn't but I know he diddd" and many more.
He also has the most energetic voice with the most iconic one liners such as "Kick it!" and "Mmm.. drop!". His voice can get really high-pitched sometimes but it's so addicting to listen to and for some weird reason, not annoying at all. I wonder how did he decided to sing like this because his talking voice is quite different and so much lower than his singing voice.
Anyways, I love all his verses and the unique way he delivers it - I'd say he definitely adds the fun factor in their songs.
Can anyone spot any more of Ad-rock's singing patterns and style? And what's your favourite Beastie voice? :)
On one hand they make lot of reffernces to super-heroes , star wars & star trek + the enitire intergalctic videoclip is paing homage to kaiju films BUT the fight for your right videoclip is making fun of the tipical cartoony nerd

Does anyone know what shirt Ad—Rock wears in the So What’cha Want video? I’ve watched it over and over and can’t figure it out. Thanks!
In Chapter 77 of the Beastie Boys Book (at least, Chapter 77 of the Audiobook), Ad-rock effectively writes an essay about why he thinks Hello Nasty is their best record. He gives 10 reasons, alongside a lot of recording history and a breakdown of a few songs, which I've paraphrased below.
22 songs, the most of any BB album, so you get the most for your money
Abundance of critical praise
Intergalactic is the fucking jam
It's a super weird record for a top 40 album in the late 90s. "Name another band that sounds like a few different bands all on the same record"
It's more mixtape than record, gives you lots of variety
It's Ad-rock's personal favourite, because it was recorded during major transitional life moments for them at very significant places, feels very full-circle
The best record cover/artwork
'Sneaking Out The Hospital' is the best song title ever
'Dedication' is "so bad it's awesome"
End of an era. After Hello Nasty, they were grown-ups, getting called sir in cafés, having children.
