R.I.P MCA (Adam Yauch)

One of the members of my favorite bands, the Beastie Boys, died today of cancer.  While that sucks I will always have fond memories of seeing them play at Lalalpalooza in the early 90's.  I have seen this band more times than I can remember and deeply saddened I will never get to see another show. 

Thanks for the memories.  I had a blast.

That does suck.  He was only 47 too.  I've been listening to them since Licensed to ill was released.  First track I heard was Paul Revere, still rocks.  Check your Head and ill communication are my two favorite albums.

I guess they delayed a tour and album because of his recovery from the cancer. I hope this album rocks. One last hurrah. RIP MCA

The Beasties rocked! Lic. to Ill was one of my favorite albums. I am sure a can remeber all the lyrics if a tune came on the radio.

Sad to see one of the pioneers of hip-hop pass on.  Beastie's will be on a continuous loop this weekend.

"So how we gonna kick it, gonna kick it root down"

RIP MCA.

I'm bummed by his passing too. I didn't start listening to them until I heard the song "So Whatcha Want" on MTV. So ,I was late to the party. Still one of my favorite tracks. I loved all the albums, but Hello Nasty is probably my favorite.

I was in sixth grade when license to ill hit and it was huge to me. I loved every song and I still keep a CD in my car to jam out to it. A truly original band that brought rap to the suburbs. RIP MCA.

Coldplay's tribute to MCA.  While I'm not a Coldplay fan, this is a pretty cool rendition of the song.
