From 1982's Pollywog Stew to 1998's Hello Nasty and their 2004 release, To The 5 Boroughs, Beastie Boys have pushed, bent, and molded the boundaries of music and pop culture worldwide.
Starting out as a punk band from New York City, they mutated into the first hip hop act to hit number one on the pop charts, and went back to live instrumentation, while always drawing on a wide array of musical sources-from funk to hardcore, from hip hop to afro-cuban jazz.
From 1982's Pollywog Stew to 1998's Hello Nasty and this summer's forthcoming To The Five Boroughs, Beastie Boys have pushed the boundaries of hip hop in six albums and countless EPs and B-sides.

Helped out, no doubt, by the fact that they had parents ‘in the bizz’, they played Max’s Kansas City, CBGBs and the like with bands such as Bad Brains and Influence.
In the beginning, there was POLLYWOG STEW; an indie EP release on the not terribly wellknown Ratcage label (re-issued in 1993) – its eight tracks caused only minor ripples in and around New York.
Then came “Cookie Puss”, a pre-Jerky Boys crank call (the Cookie Puss of the title is a heavily advertised ice-cream novelty) heard over amateurish hardcore bashing.

It's some of the most foul, offensive, and insanely good punk rock circa 1978.

This is their "hardcore" record, unavailable until the official release on their Some Old Bullshit collection.

 Beastie Boys - Future Rock Hall
Uncovering what the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame will look like in 25 years
While the Beastie Boys are technically eligible for the Rock Hall in 2007, based on the release of the Pollywog Stew EP in '82, it doesn't seem likely the nominating committee will recognize them until 25 years after Licensed to Ill in 2011.
The Rock Hall would also take some major heat if the first rappers inducted into the Hall weren't one of the true pioneers, such as Grandmaster Flash.
