"SEE, THIS AIN'T AMERICA'S MOST WANTED, THIS IS AMERICA'S MOST MACKIN'!"

PIC(S) INFO: Mega spotlight on American hip-hop group, BEASTIE BOYS, walking down Franklin Ave., Los Angeles (Hollywood), CA, from the B. Boys' "Check Your Head" photo-session, c. 1991. 📸: Glen E. Friedman.

OVERVIEW: "We met up by the Capitol Records building and eventually ended up in a beach parking lot in Santa Monica. Same lot you would have parked in if you had a car and were going to Arthur Lake's parents home in ‘76 to skate their pool. Pictures from this day ended up on the cover of "CHECK YOUR HEAD" and on various other merchandise the boys put out.

This is one of my FAVORITES from the day.

Hearing this album in the studio with them for the first time while they were working on the sequencing is what inspired me to ask them to do the photo session. They already had the LP cover done I was told, but that was fine by me, once I faxed them some of these they changed direction and threw a Fax on the cover of the LP. On the cassette and later CD they used the actual photograph. Inspired, conquered. Great day, amazing work. They also met AWOL for the first time this day, since i asked him if he'd mind hauling us around in his van and hang out."

-- GLEN E. FRIEDMAN (American photographer/living legend)

THE B. BOYS WERE MY NEIGHBORS IN THE '90s, AND NO ONE EVER TOLD ME.

NOTE: ^I used to live in neighboring Los Feliz for most of the nineties, but I was just a kid at the time with absolutely zero interest in hip-hop music.

PIC INFO: Spotlight on American hip-hop group, the BEASTIE BOYS, photographed in Atwater Village, the east side of Los Angeles, CA, c. early 1990s. 📸: Ari Marcopoulos.

LOCATION: 2934 Riverside Drive, Los Angeles, CA, 90039
