Wow, memories.

 

[Rollo Lawson]

RIP to a true pioneer...

 

[kittens]

Holy shit. The Beastie Boys were a favorite of mine as a teenager. MCA was an icon.

 

[boredofcanada]

RIP my man. You were one of the greatest influences in my life. Had the supreme pleasure of seeing you live 4 times. You will definitely be missed.......Bumping Beasties all weekend.

Just listened to that track. Ill Communication is unreal. All their shit is unreal.

 

[ampere]

Damn, that sucks. 47 is too young.

 

[Raide]

One of my all time favourite songs

Intergalactic.

 

[criesofthepast]

RIP Legend.

 

[Baconsammy]

Anyone that says Beasties sucked is a moron. You may not like them, but to deny their talent is idiotic.

I remember about a decade ago when they let fans make their own greatest hits album online, then it got mailed to us, allowing us to name the cd collection too. Gonna listen to my double cd Asscakes Johnson Sings The Blues tonight.

 

[WyndhamPrice]

Hey Ladies

Probably my favorite track off of Paul's Boutique

 

[MrCunningham]

Paul's Boutique, Check Your Head and License to Il', are three of my favorite albums of all time.

Wow.

RIP.

 

[panty]

Fucking shit.

 

[Lambtron]

My friends and I drove around the entire summer after I graduated high school listening to Hello Nasty all day. That album is a huge part of my youth and it's massively important to me.

God.

 

[The Boat]

Damnit, he was too young :/ R.I.P.

 

[see5harp]

Paul's Boutique - Check Your Head - Ill Communication are my favorite albums of theirs. I respect their early work but I was always more of a fan of their hip-hop and groove orientated stuff so the early party records were kinda novelty albums to me. Still, MCA was always my favorite rapper of the bunch.

 

[Zia]

RIP.

:'(

 

[Expendable.]

My personal favorite contribution from the man was founding Oscilloscope Laboratories, a great film distributor.

Also, here are his top 10 Criterion movies -> http://www.criterion.com/explore/57-adam-yauch-s-top-10

 

[Odrion]

FUCKING NO.

FUCK.

 

[Kad5]

Paul's Boutique will probably always be my favorite 80s hip hop album.

And any Beastie Boys fan should listen to this. It's their most underrated and best album for sure. No doubt about it.

 

[slit]

Wow, a piece of my childhood just went up in flames!!!

 

[itwasTuesday]

Sabotage was my inspiration for my cop costume at a 70s/80s day at work.

He will be missed.

 

[Vire]

Wow, what a terrible week.

Sad sad news. RIP.

I have the best memories of listening to Beastie Boys while playing MK2 and 3.

 

[D23]

gonna listen to beastie boys all day !!

 

[astroturfing]

np: Beastie Boys - Flute Loop

fuck you cancer.

 

[MrCunningham]

Hey Ladies

Probably my favorite track off of Paul's Boutique

The Sounds of Science was great too...

Ah hell, the whole album was wonderful.

 

[Aeana]

I am so sad right now.
Paul's Boutique is now on.

 

[see5harp]

And any Beastie Boys fan should listen to this. It's their most underrated and best album for sure. No doubt about it.

Paul's Boutique is well known as one of the most important hip-hop albums of all time.

 

[Muffdraul]

I'm generally not too affected by celebrity deaths, but I feel weird right now. Lump in throat, skin on my face feels tight or something... this fucking sucks. He was always my favorite Beastie.

MCA is dead. Long live MCA.

 

[Eric Hall]

Fuck, this was an awful thing to come home to following finals. Beastie Boys were one of the first music groups I really remember liking. I am crushed right now

RIP

 

[Get'sMad]

So awful..

Going to crack a beer and spin Paul's Boutique in memory when I get home.

 

[NinjaFridge]

FUUCCKKK. today is a bad day

[spindashing]

[Patrick Bateman]

Wow..

 

[JumpingTheGun]

Crushing news for me. RIP Adam you will be sorely missed.

 

[Semblance]

Man ... I'm speechless, this group was such a huge part of my youth. Paul's Boutique will get played heavily this weekend.

RIP.

 

[Davidion]

MCA come and rock the sure shot...

RIP

 

[JumpingTheGun]

Werent they just inducted into the Hall of Fame?

 

[forrest]

Man...

RIP

 

[McNei1y]

RIP MCA. :\

 

[sixteen-bit]

RIP Adam Yauch

 

[xbhaskarx]

Yauch became a vegan at the recommendation of his Tibetan doctors.

RIP, always sad to lose a fellow vegan...

 

[dvdjamm]

I'm too depressed...I've been listening to the Beasties since buying the 12" of Cooky Puss when I was a kid. They will always be one of my favorites in music. RIP Adam Yauch and condolences to the Beasties families. this hurts

 

[bbagwell]

Feels like we were all sabotaged.

RIP MCA

 

[Aguirre]

1st celeb death fucking upset me, seriously

[-NeoTB1-]

Sad, sad day. You will never be forgotten, MCA. RIP

 

[TheKaeptain]

 

[krypt0nian]

Fuck...processing but this one is rough.

"I've been coming to where I am from the get go
Find that I can groove with the beat when I let go
So put your worries on hold
Get up and groove with the rhythm in your soul"

 

[deadbeef]

Licensed to Ill was the first tape I bought back in mid 80s.. Been a fan ever since. 47 is too young

 

[The Super Bob]

Terrible news, he'll be missed.
