Beastie Boys Band Member Dead
Updated 1:59 PM Friday, May 4, 2012
Beastie Boys, from left, Adam "Ad-Rock" Horovitz, Adam "MCA" Yauch, and Michael "Mike D" Diamond. NEW YORK — Hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons says Adam Yauch, the gravelly voiced Beastie Boys rapper who co-founded the seminal hip-hop group, has died at age 47. Calls and emails to representatives for the Beastie Boys were not immediately returned. Simmons' Def Jam label released the Beastie Boys' first album, "Licensed to Ill." The cause of death wasn't immediately known. Yauch, who's also known as MCA, was diagnosed with a cancerous parotid gland in 2009. He had undergone surgery and radiation. At the time, Yauch expressed hope it was "very treatable," but his illness caused the group to cancel shows and delayed the release of their 2011 album, "Hot Sauce Committee, Pt. 2." He hadn't preformed in public since 2009 and was absent when the Beastie Boys were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in April.

Re: Beastie Boys Band Member Dead
I thought about making some smart remark but it seems to me to be in poor form to do so on an obit. I'm sure that The Beastie Boys were someone's favorite.
Instead I will limit my comments to merely, RIP Adam Yauch. May the world you go to be better than the world you had. |
