    "comment": "Sabotage was released ahead of the \"Ill Communication\" album on 28 January 1994. It saw the band use traditional rock instrumentation (Ad-Rock on guitar, MCA on bass, and Mike D on drums) alongside their more typical turntable scratches and rap vocal phrasings.\n\nWatch the Beastie Boys perform this one live on The David Letterman Show: https://tinyurl.com/yywjrhrz",
