Sabotage is not the quintessential Beastie Boys track. Its basically a punk rock song.

Probably a waste of time telling you to quit being such a pussy, but you should really front up with your own picks.
"Pussy" is misogynistic.
I'll give you my picks later. When I've had time to think about them.

But there’s also rapping and turntable scratching, plus Latin-tinged percussion. It covers all their bases.
Also it's a good song and not a bad one.
