R.I.P. MCA.

The Beasties Boys were one the most consistent, and true to themselves hip-hop groups of all of time. Legends.

my whole problem with that video, although I think it really is great, is one person that I don't think should be there, or rather, why in the world is he there in the first place. And its that dude from gym class heroes. Of all the rappers, why did they choose that guy. Hes not even at the same level as any of the other people on that stage.

WTF is that shit? Is that a "Thing?" Is that some shit they do at shows all the time? Jesus Christ I hope not.

Fuck every person who ever blew a whistle.

Pete is a prick. This article just shows what a jealous bitch his whole career was.I never knew Professor X managed him.

This, my friend, is a fitting tribute: http://arrestedmotion.com/2012/05/stree ... a-tribute/

i used to have that vhs tape. anyhow, considering the scene change at 6:15, i'd say that was staged.

MANHATTAN ג€” Late Beastie Boys member MCA made sure he would never be a corporate sellout ג€” even in the afterlife.

The pioneering rapper, whose real name is Adam Yauch, instructed in his will that his image, music and any art he created could not be used for advertising, saving himself from the fate of other deceased musicians whose faces and songs have become corporate shills.

Yauch's will, filed Tuesday in Manhattan Surrogate Court, says the Brooklyn native's entire fortune of $6.4 million should be placed in a trust for his wife, Dechen Yauch, and their 13-year-old daughter. It also says Dechen has the right to sell and manage his artistic property.

Read the whole article. I dont think he comes off jealous at all in hindsight.

http://soundcloud.com/ninja-tune/solid-steel-radio-show-31-8-1
Solid Steel in association with Serato (31st August) 3 years ago Solid Steel DJs Cheeba, Moneyshot and Food had the idea of collaborating on a version of the Beastie Boys‘ ‘Paul’s Boutique’ album made entirely from the original sample sources, shortly after Moneyshot aired his mix of their ‘Check Your Head’ album in the same way.

Finally the result is here, titled ‘Caught In The Middle Of A 3-Way Mix’ - each of them have taken a third of the album to work on and combined their efforts into a mix that will make you hear it in a new way. Aside from the original sample sources they’ve included commentary from the Beasties, vintage interviews, demo versions and much more.

The mix was over half way completed when they heard the tragic news of MCA‘s death in May so the impetus to finish it was instantly doubled and new meaning given to the project. It goes without saying that this is also a tribute to Adam Yauch and the legacy he left behind and we hope it will be embraced by Beastie fans around the globe.
