Beastie Boys amerikai hiphop banda New York brooklyn-i és manhattan-i részéről.
A Beastie Boys-nak szokatlanul hosszú ideje van kritikai és üzleti sikere. Zenéjük leginkább rap, mely gyakran keveredik egy kis funk-kal, jazz-zel, rock-kal és punk-kal. Jelentős hatásuk van a hiphop szférán belűl és kívűl egyaránt.
A jelenlegi négy tag zsidó származású. Zenéjük ismert a változatosságról, a zenei stílusok kísérletezgetéseiről, komolytalan, vicces viselkedésükről valamint homályos mondanivalóikról.

Az Adj rá kakaót (Pump up the Volume) 1990-es film is tartalmaz egy kiadatlan számot, a "The Scanario"-t, feltehetően túlzott szókimondósága miatt nem került a Licensed To Ill albumra. A film soundtrack lemeze nem tartalmazza a számot és a filmben is csak rövid ideig hallható, viszont az "Original Ill" című előzetes demo albumon hallgatható minőségben van rajt.
