Yeah the Irish embraced hip hop earlier than just about any white group. There's a saying, "The Irish are the blacks of Europe, Dubliners are the blacks of Ireland). Yes a lot of Irish are as racist as any group, but they've also been treated as badly as any group in Europe for centuries, so it makes sense that they embraced the hard core sound.

I love when the younger generation realizes..."Its THAT song" 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤙🏼

It is so cool seeing young people hearing iconic songs for the first time and enjoying them!! As for me, I've been jamming to this song for 31 years. I'm old enough to remember nightclubs and bars BANNING Jump Around where I lived. The reason for this was because people would "Jump Around" and spill alcohol all over other party goers or knock other people down... Which would cause fights, stabbings, and gun play 😬 So they banned the song 😢 But not just Jump Around... "Insane In The Brain" by Cypress Hill also got banned in clubs for the same reason. Those two songs got people PUMPED UP!!!!

The Beastie Boys were white and were making a name for themselves in NYC in the early days of rap. Don’t worry about thinking an artist is a different color or doesn’t look like you thought they would, I think it’s human nature to form a picture in your head of who you’re hearing.

Never at a club that didn't go mental when this was played back in the day...

I was a young DJ playing parties for high school and collage kids when this song dropped. We didn't have a lot of music video exposure at that point, so we didn't know if they were white or black or what either, but it didn't matter what color they were - because we just loved it! (no dis-respect)

I miss happy music like we used to have. It was all about partying and dancing . Different times for real.

when they were touring with Cypress Hill, they booked at a college stadium, they checked the foundation after and found major cracks running through the whole building

Matt was a friend of theirs. Everlast “whitey ford” is the main dude. HOP only had 3 albums. The first was dope, with production mainly from DJ Muggs from Cypress Hill. They were all friends. Everlast went on to make great albums and a lot of acoustic guitar stuff, with a little bit of rhymes and beats. Still doing it today, after he almost died years ago. Definitely check out his catalog. Good shite!

The whole album is great. "Top o' the mornin' to ya" is sick. I was in high school when this dropped. This song still gets people moving.

Saw them live at the Barrowlands, Glasgow in 1993 with Cyrpess Hill and Funkdoobiest. They killed it. Stole the show.

I never saw an official Funkdoobiest concert but they were in Honolulu and showed up to a private party to battle with local Hawaii rappers. Both sides were good battle rappers and there was such an awesome vibe in the room that night.

Man, there are brothers of all kinds.

Back in the day, there was this hiphop/d&b/breaks magazine called "Knowledge", which encompassed history and knowledge about the hip hop community and it's influences. The hip hop community was all about knowing their roots and the history of their influences. It seems nowadays that a lot of this mentality has disappeared except for in the most underground hiphop communities and I find it so refreshing that the younger generations find an interest in the knowledge of the past of hiphop. Looking into it now, the magazine still exsists as Kmag, but has diverted to be mainly d&b focused.

Shout out to DJ muggs on this album. Killed it with the beat.

I love how his buddies keep pulling him back from the camera, the way you pull back a friend from getting into a fight.

The music, the lyrics, the energy, the video... It's one of those super-rare moments in life when you practically captured lightning in a bottle.

They were shopping this song and Ruffhouse wanted it but house of pain didn’t like the deal so they kept shopping. In the meantime Ruffhouse put out “jump” by Kris’s Kross to try to squash jump around. Didn’t work. That’s why at the end he says “this is dedicated to Joe the biter Nicolo” he was a Ruffhouse exec

Thx for respecting the song and not pause it in middle, etc...Apprecite it, dude ! It's a gift from our era !

Yes, that was like it was. I was about almost 14 at that time and was in love. He was my pretend boyfriend. We only had a TV a short time and it was black and white then.

Matt Champy was a friend of the members of House of Pain. House of Pain consisted of Everlast (lead lyricist), Danny Boy, and DJ Lethal (who later on was the DJ for Limp Bizkit).

I was 1yo when this song came out, but I heard it all throughout my childhood in the 90s and early 00s. Such a huge hit of nostalgia every time I hear it, and seeing your reaction and pure enjoyment brought a smile to my face. Love this song ❤️

The frontman is Everlast. He sang the song the called "What It's Like". The Beastie Boys are 3 Jewish dudes from NYC. Their first album "Licensed To Ill" was released in 1986.

Yeah, a lot of people say they've never heard this song, the when it starts, they've all heard it.

And thats the same dude that did the song "What its Like" in the 90's... 💯 Everlast ain't no bullshit. 💯

Just like my surprise finding out the lead singer of Sevendust was black..lol. back in the day, saw them on a "metal and ink" tour. He came out shirtless, braids and belted out the song Black... Made my hair stand on end. It was awesome!

Unique perspective: im a 41 white dude from north dakota. The 88 to 93 era of mtv that is often seen as a gentrification of rap by the bronx (who created the art and deserves respect, but not full ownership) but like it literally for me brought me my favorite art form. ... When this album came out it was so absolutely subversive and outside the box. It was cypress hill meets dropkick Murphy's before dropkick was even a thing.

Best part of the House of Pain mythology is that they're from Boston, or even Irish-American. They're from LA and good friends with Cypress Hill etc. I think the label (Tommy Boy) was like, "well, you're white, the beat samples a bagpipe. fuck it." Funny as fuck to see people from Boston, or even Ireland, claim this group when they're from Woodland Hills in LA county. But, fuck it, it's a BANGER.

This was out at the same time as Kris Kross' "Jump," and often were played back to back

OK, little history lesson from an old hip hop head. The Horn sample at the beginning of the song (not the casket carrying video intro) is from a song called "Harlem Shuffle" by Bob & Earl from 1965. The lead rapper Everlast had a solo career before this when he was part of Ice T's Rhyme Syndicate in 1990, unfortunately his debut album didn't do too well so he joined forces with DJ Lethal and Danny Boy in 1992 to form the Irish-American Trio House of Pain (even though DJ Lethal is actually Latvian-born!). He then changed his Name to Whitey Ford and released another solo album in 1998. His Real name is Erik Schrody, Matt Champy is just the guy who uploaded the video lol!!!

1992 was the best year in the history of the world for music. You could have months of content just reacting to all of the amazing albums that dropped that year.

Kids watching my music growing having the same reaction is awesome.

Fun Fact: This album and their second album are slammin.

You should really check out the golden age of Rap. The 80s. The Beastie Boys started it all for the "white guys". Have you ever heard LL Cool J's jams from the 80s? 90s? His 80s stuff was the best. If you haven't heard of Too Short,E40, 2 Live Crew, Eric B & Rakim, Public Enemy, Eazy E, NWA, Westside Connection, Digital Underground. You should. Those are just a few of hip hop legends. I hardly see anyone react to as much.

I bounced in Boston bars in the 90s for extra money. We would ask the DJs to not play this song. Though i loved it, the place would get absolutely crazy whenever it was played.
