3 Bad Brothers A Beastie Boys Breakdown- Paul's Boutique with guest Cutso

3 Bad Brothers A Beastie Boys Breakdown- Paul's Boutique with guest Cutso

Author: Dad Bod Rap Pod June 5, 2025 Duration: 1:18:01
The finest in men's opinions, this is Paul's Boutique. In many ways, we created this entire miniseries so that we could talk about Paul's Boutique. For Dad Bod Rap Pod hosts Nate LeBlanc, David Ma, and Producer Cutso, this is a foundational document, one of the keys that unlocked our love of music and hip-hop in general. Host Demone Carter feels slightly differently, as you will hear. The Beastie Boys' second album is many things: A pinnacle of the art of sampling, an experiment in song structures, a step away from their first album and many of its casual fans, a reflection of their first time on the west coast, a deepening of the bond between all three group members as displayed in their intertwining vocal arrangements. We will break all of that down on this episode, the 2nd in our 8-part series tracking the development of one of the great American bands and a group that both set trends and broke precedents in the hip-hop world. 3 Bad Brothers, A Beasties Boys Breakdown is a production of Dad Bod Rap Pod Hosted By Demone Carter, David Ma, and Nate LeBlanc Executive Produced by Nate LeBlanc Produced by Demone Carter and Paolo “Cutso” Bello  Edited by Demone Carter and Nate LeBlanc  Engineering and Post-Production by Paolo “Cutso” Bello Artwork by Rory Simms Photography by Stephanie Barajas  Youtube version produced by Paolo “Cutso” Bello Theme song written and recorded by Defcee and Produced by Cutso Dad Bod Rap Pod is distributed by Open Mike Eagle’s Stony Island Audio

The conversation flows from three distinct but deeply connected perspectives on Dad Bod Rap Pod. Hosted by rapper Demone Carter (DEM ONE), music writer David Ma, and record collector Nate LeBlanc, this podcast digs into the culture with a rare combination of insider knowledge, critical analysis, and archival passion. Their discussions are less about hot takes and more about substantive, respectful dialogue with the artists, producers, and behind-the-scenes figures who have shaped the genre. You'll hear interviews that feel like conversations among peers, often uncovering lesser-known stories and appreciating the craft from multiple angles. As part of the Stony Island Audio network, the show is built on a foundation of genuine fandom and expertise. Listening to this podcast means getting a rounded, thoughtful examination of hip-hop's legacy and its current evolution, all filtered through the experiences of three dedicated enthusiasts who happen to have great chemistry. It’s for anyone who wants to move beyond the surface and into the deeper layers of the music.
