Album covers of the Beastie Boys



By looking at past album covers for the Beastie Boys we got a better understanding of the star image of the band. Two of the three albums show the band on a street, conveying to the onlooker they are an organic band that evolved from street culture. From their outfits in all of the pictures we can see their gangster like style of shell suites and high top trainers. Their music is shown to be very important to the band as a boom box is featured in two thirds of the slbum covers. This may also be used to show they like load music and their slightly old school music taste, not conforming to the stereotypical rap we see nower days.
