History [edit]
The vocal, written past Adam Yauch and ring friend Tom "Tommy Triphammer" Cushman (who appears in the video), was intended as an ironic parody of "party" and "attitude"-themed songs, such as "Smokin' in the Boys Room" and "I Wanna Rock".[5] Withal, the irony was lost on well-nigh listeners. Mike D commented that, "The simply matter that upsets me is that we might accept reinforced sure values of some people in our audience when our own values were actually totally dissimilar. At that place were tons of guys singing along to 'Fight for Your Correct' who were oblivious to the fact information technology was a total goof on them."[vi] Writing credits were given to Yauch, Ad-Stone and the Beastie Boys' producer, Rick Rubin.[7]
Music video [edit]
The music video for "Fight for Your Right" begins as a mother and father tell their two sons to stay out of trouble while they are away. When they leave, the two boys determine to have a party, hoping "no bad people show up"; this prompts the inflow of Ad-Stone, Mike D, and MCA at the party. The trio start all kinds of trouble within the business firm, such as chasing and kissing girls, starting fires, bringing more troublesome people into the house, spiking the dial, smashing things, and starting a massive pie fight. As the pie fight reaches its height, Ad-Rock, Mike D, and MCA run away, the political party having become too out of hand even for them. Every bit the video ends, the remaining partygoers shout along to the final chorus of "party!" earlier hitting the returning female parent in the face with a pie.
Directed by Ric Menello and Adam Dubin,[eight] there are numerous cameos in this video, including an unknown-at-the-fourth dimension Tabitha Soren, Robert John "Mutt" Lange, Def Jam characterization mate LL Cool J, Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, members of the punk rock band Murphy's Law, too equally the Beastie Boys' producer, Rick Rubin, who was shown wearing an AC/DC and Slayer shirt, the latter of whom were also signed to Def Jam at the time.
Soren, whose hair was dyed blonde for the shoot, got her chance to exist in the video because she was a friend of Rubin's and attended nearby New York University. "I worked hard at not getting whatever pie goo on me," she recalls, because the whipped cream used had been scoured from supermarket trash cans since in that location was no money in the budget for information technology. As a issue, it was rancid and had a foul odor. "The odour in that room, when anybody was washed throwing pies, was like rotten eggs. You wanted to throw up."[9]
Fight for Your Right Revisited [edit]
In 2011, Adam Yauch directed and wrote a surreal comedic short flick entitled Fight for Your Correct Revisited to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the original video'south release. The curt film serves as a video for the unmarried "Make Some Noise" from Hot Sauce Committee Part Ii. Most of the not-sequitur dialogue between characters were a result of improvisation by the cast.
Revisited acts equally a sequel to the events that took identify in the original music video and features Mike D, Ad-Rock and MCA (played by Seth Rogen, Elijah Woods, and Danny McBride, respectively) every bit they go into more drunken antics, before beingness challenged to a dance battle by the futurity Mike D, Ad-Rock and MCA (John C. Reilly, Will Ferrell, and Jack Blackness, respectively), coming out of a DeLorean. Eventually, both sets of Beasties go rousted past a trio of cops (played past the actual Beastie Boys) and taken to jail.
The short features numerous cameo appearances, some appearing onscreen for merely a few seconds. They include Stanley Tucci and Susan Sarandon (every bit the parents seen in the original video), Adam Scott, Alicia Silverstone, Amy Poehler, Chloë Sevigny, David Cross, Jason Schwartzman, Kirsten Dunst, Laura Dern, Mary Steenburgen, Martin Starr, Maya Rudolph, Orlando Bloom, Rashida Jones, Rainn Wilson, Shannyn Sossamon, Steve Buscemi, Ted Danson, and Will Arnett.
