NOOOOOO. Fuck. RIP.
NOOOOOO. Fuck. RIP.
Guess he won't need that license any more.
RIP MCA. Your legacy will continue in a head jar.

"I was born with music inside me. Music was one of my parts. Like my ribs, my kidneys, my liver, my heart. Like my blood. It was a force already within me when I arrived on the scene. It was a necessity for me-like food or water."
Ray Charles
Wow. I don't have the words. This is more upsetting then I expected.
no words...
Damnit, I too thought MCA was going to beat cancer.
The Beastie Boys' Ill Communication tour stop in Oakland was my second concert ever.

R.I.P this one hurts. Great times were had when beastie boys were on.
Due to the fact that you're all a bunch of whiny post-reported babies, for legal reasons I must apologize for not shedding a tear at the passing of this amazing talent. Hopefully he's shaking his rump with Jesus now.
This is so sad. Beastie Boys were a huge part of my teenage years.

I went to go see Beastie Boys' first (last) ever Brooklyn show back in 2007 instead of seeing Daft Punk's Brooklyn show. They meant so much to me
I'm pretty much at a loss of words...RIP MCA
I honestly hope all those around you die a slow painful death from cancer right in front of your face and then you get it and die alone in a cold hospital with tubes sticking out of every fucking orifice you have. and for once, i'm serious. i hope cancer comes for you soon.

Funny thing is, people will say the same thing when you drop dead. Bad fucking things are in your future buddy. You are, unquestionably, a waste of oxygen. I never got people who cut down a dead person even if it is a musician you don't like. Just don't say anything. By all accounts Adam was a standup guy and he did a lot for charity and Tibet so lay off the bs. RIP MCA. Thank you for the music and the art![]()
Ugh this is the worst news. Never had the chance to see them live. RIP MCA.
This news is breaking my heart. Damn this sucks so much. One of the first groups/bands/rappers that got me into music. Bonnaroo 09 will be my only time seeing them live.
I was just in the car and they played 4 in a row Beastie Boys on the radio and I thought 'what's up with that? Did the Beastie Boys call it a day?'. Bastard death is a fucker!
A bunch of radio stations are playing beastie boys for the whole 12 o'clock hour.
I hope Ad-rock and Mike D release a statement. I'd like to hear their thoughts.
Also, this tears me up. Little things...
