🎵 Session Track:
"Paul Revere" – Beastie Boys (1986)
Reversed beat. Slow-roll storytelling. Absolutely iconic—and cheeky enough to inspire the beer’s name. It is the Wheatsie Boyz anthem.
💿 Full Session:
"Paid in Full" – Eric B. & Rakim (1987)
This album is a mixtape blueprint: jazzy samples, deep grooves, lyrical mastery. It’s what DJs dubbed, what breakdancers spun to, what the streets memorized. Pure grain-to-glass inspiration.
