    They phenomenonal @ their time. They set trends & were worshiped.
    C’mon young people @ that era were swagger jacking anything the Beatles do from hairdos,clothes,jewelry,cars,drinks u name it….they were gods not God.
    Even MJ owns their publishing rights ..HAAA HAAA!!!

    Whether XXL & Murs knew it was The Beatles’ drummer Ringo’s 70th birthday today or not, nice and tasteful move by a hip hop site.
    Even Michael Jackson knew the power of the Beatles by owning their Northern Songs publishing, though thru out the years he’s sold a portion back to Sony/ATV music publishing.

    Hip Hop did ruin your life for a little bit, I will agree with that. Glad to see your expanding please go watch the closing of Winterland starring the Grateful Dead. Vampire weekend that’s cool, go check Dick Dale. Also please watch Bela Fleck’s Throw Down Your Heart.

    I appreciate this since so few hip-hop sites act like any music outside of hip-hop even exists…

    Thanks to You,

    This group in 8 years continuously grew every album. Listen to sgt peppers in headphones and then tell me these cats today are great composers. It took two 4 tracks to make the sound you hear on it. They always grew even when people wanted them to be the lovable mop top boys. And Lennon and McCartney are one of the best writing teams of all time!
