“People How ya doin, there’s a new day dawning, from the earth mother it’s a brand new morning…” 

-Beastie Boys

yet, this is a sad Misung Monday morning folks. One of the great artists who inspired me  has passed away late last week . So in honor of him and his memory, I’m making this Misung Monday a hip-hop themed Misung Monday.

We’ll miss ya, Adam Yauch. 

I dug way back in the archives to pull this out.  It’s a very budget rap song called “Budget Rap”.  (Yes, back in the day i used to make rap songs and i still do ocassionally.)  This remix, however, was done by my good friend from NYC James D Campbell, and includes actual Beastie Boy beats that he legally downloaded from the official Beastie Boys website (www.beastieboys.com).   Me and “The Ottomen” recorded this back in 1998 in Kansas City MO and it appears on the album “Adventures at the Shore”. Hope you like it, and remember it’s from 14 years ago.

Here it is..Enjoy!!  Budget Rap (beastie Remix) unreleased remix track
