Tragic

R.I.P MCA

R.I.P Adam...I was really fan of his band at the end of the 80's ! "Fight for Your Right" was so... awesome as "No Sleep Till Brooklin" or "Girls"... I'm so sad tonight...

Yep, "Fight For Your Right" will forever be a Rock Classic. I hope, he doesn't rest, but will paaaarty in Rock 'n' Roll heaven.

Sad news indeed, my he rest in peace.

Tkrau · 4 May 12, 21:40

A sad day.

I still think its kinda funny that one of THE best hip-hop crews ever were three white Jewish kids from Brooklyn. I will miss them all.

GLENNYBOY1 · 4 May 12, 21:49

I've been playing 'Paul's Boutique' full blast,what a funky eclectic masterpiece that is.

RIP Adam,thanks for the grooves and the chuckles.

This isn't going to be for everyone but Coldplay did a tribute on Friday. Turned out pretty amazing.

GLENNYBOY1 · 7 May 12, 15:01

A fine tribute,cheers for the vid Zud.

Leper Messiah · 7 May 12, 19:43

RIP MCA

I'm a metal head, but these guys were just so awesome, Licensed to Ill is one of my fave albums ever.

Tkrau · 8 May 12, 01:05

I just now got around to watching the Coldplay vid...amazing piece there!

oopyar · 8 May 12, 08:47

sad that such a great person passed away, i do hope that he is in a better place right now although i would like to know what was the cause of his death becasue i was a fan of him. I am sure that this event really made a lot of his fans sad too, we will continually pray for his soul.

I do not doubt this is sincere, but that is exactly the opposite of what the Beastie Boys play and are on stage.

takumi69 · 10 May 12, 21:02

I have seen the Beasties twice live on stage in relative small clubs, and i can honestly say that these were some of the most intense live acts i ever seen. They really rocked.
Rest in peace MCA and fight for your right to party where ever you are.

stepy · 11 May 12, 19:29

A week on, and i still can`t fully take it in... can`t bring myself to listen to any beasties album.
