A 180 turn from "Paul's Boutique". "Check Your Head" is a far subtler work than its predecessor. Just because it's more modest doesn't make it a flop by any means but there are few memorable stand out songs; enjoyable as the more laid-back vibe and the slow explorations of funk, jazz and metal are, "Check Your Head" does not demand regular rotation.

This album is straight bananas. Seemingly a reaction to the legal shutdown on sampling at the end of the 80's ad the beginning of the 90's, them Boys showed the world they didn't need to ride of the backs of samples (and the Dust Brothers) to prove they were and will always be one of the greatest acts to ever do it. Reinvention, for the second time, done so well you can't really complain (unless youse a bitch).

One of the most innovative hip-hop albums ever, but isn't hindsight wonderful? For me, somebody who wasn't around at the time this came out, I heard it and Ill Communication at the same time, and so the impact of this crazy unique sound wasn't as much, and I felt that IC took what makes CYH excellent and made a classic record; however, CYH is nothing to be scoffed at! So What'cha Want still probably stands as the fucking coolest song ever, and this has the criminally underrated Stand Together, which is basically just MCA spitting three really dope verses. CYH is really the B-Boys finding the sound that they would develop from 1992 to 1998 before they took a break post-Hello Nasty.

"Paul's Boutique is one of my favorite rap albums. "Check Your Head" just didn't live up to it as the next album. It was still Beastie Boys though and it was still good.
