Video: Mick Boogie (@MickBoogie) x Jonathan Mannion Create ‘Grand Royal’ Cover
In honor of the Beastie Boys being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame… I thought it’s finally the right time to do a mixtape. It’s something I’ve wanted to do for a long time… something people have asked me to do for a long time, actually… but I wanted it to mean something. Now… is the right time. I present to you “Grand Royal.”
But I wanted to make it special. Something beyond just an audio experience. I called my friend Jonathan Mannion… the legendary photographer (Jay-Z’s first four albums, Eminem, Lil Wayne, Nas, Aaliyah, the list goes on and on), and we decided to re-shoot the iconic cover from the Beastie’s 1989 classic “Paul’s Boutique.” –Mick Boogie
