"The New Style" (also known as "It's the New Style") is a song by American hip hop group the Beastie Boys, released as the second single from their debut album Licensed to Ill.
The famous "mmm...drop" line from the song was later sampled in other hip hop songs, including The Pharcyde's "Drop" (1995), OutKast's "Benz or a Beamer", and by the Beastie Boys themselves on their song "Johnny Ryall" (1989) and on their single "Intergalactic" (1998). Furthermore, the opening line was sampled on the track "Workinonit" by J Dilla. Hip hop group OFWGKTA also used the instrumental for their song "Swag Me Out" from their 2010 mixtape Radical.
