What was called Rock n' Roll in the '80s and before is already called Classic Rock. We don't know what they'll call any ere/genre of music until we get there.

The reference to it as classical reminded me of the "Ah, the `Giants'" scene in Star Trek IV. It was clearly a joke about what things from the past filtered through to their present time after the turmoils in between those time eras, such as the world war the predated First Contact.
As that great philosopher Bugs Bunny said, "Something tells me I shoulda stood in bed." -

the beastie boys can't even exist in the star trek universe. They literally reference star trek in their lyrics. So the beastie boys are from a world where star trek was a tv show from the 60's that they watched as reruns in the 70's. Are they now saying that star trek is now our future? even during TNG they still persisted in the canon of the eugenics wars of the 1990's, and ill communication came out in 1994, right in the middle of the eugenics wars. khan was in the second kelvin timeline movie, so obviously they haven't abandoned that as canonical. this just shows poor knowledge of trek lore, poor knowledge of an audience, and not taking your material seriously enough. maybe the next one can have william shatner come back as tj hooker and he can ride on the hood of the enterprise with heather locklear. and it can be a big wink at the audience like, get it?

Another joke, with reference to the "classical music" quote, is if we know look back just two films to ST09:-
When Kirk is zooming along in the "borrowed" Corvette, blasting out The Beastie Boys, I originally assumed we were to view that as showing young James Tiberius Kirk as being quite the rebel. Now, however, we are told that he was actually driving the three hundred year old vehicle listening to what was considered "classical" music.
We should therefore perhaps be viewing that scene as more akin to watching young Kirk teetering atop a penny-farthing, enjoying the sounds of Beethoven's mass in c major, or suchlike, emanating from a nearby gramaphone!
Not so rebellious now
