He really did make everything from the 1st grade to this year better. The Beastie Boys really were a huge part of my rearing. Not ****ing fair.
serious....I dont think there has ever been a musician/group that has influenced me as much as them.
I just realized there was another post on it but oh well
guess my playlist for the next couple weeks will me pretty heavy with licence to ill

WTF is this sh!t!?
dang....
Bummer.
R.I.P.
Don't worry, You won't be the last I'm sure. We have at least 24 hours till Mandown posts about it.
I think this is the point where I realize I am getting old. I looked at his most recent image......wish I hadnt done that.
That sucks. Definitely listened to a lot of their early stuff when I was younger.
My favorite Beastie Boys song, and my favorite remix. For some reason this song really helped me get through my divorce and all of that mess. Puts a little swagger in my strut.
I think paul revere will always be my fav
Could only be that funky monkey.
Why not a Kardashian, a Bieber or that weird tanning parolur lady? RIP MCA, thanks for making being a white kid cool for a little bit...
dont get dirt started again
Jesus I'm old.
"You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to JohnE again." - Dang.
My man MCA's got a beard like a billy goat
oowah oowah is my disco call
MCA hu-huh I'm gettin' rope y'all

right there with ya....having a birthday next week isnt helping me either
Dayum...too young...
Wow....I actually grew up listening to the old punk Beastie Boys tracks, especially those off the NY Thrash comp....
By the time I hit college, every Queens kid was singing "No Sleep to Brooklyn" so I got out of them, but dang they grew back on me. RIP, Ad.

Wow... that is horrible.
And Dirk, 1st grade? You must be a young'n. It was more like 7th grade on for me when "Ill" came out.
(Or I'm an old fart... which ever the case may be).

with the weekend comin, i'll wait until monday.
i have no skin in this game. i am not a fan, but i understand the fans are at a loss and it is always unfortunate to see a powerful creative force go. my condolences.
I remember Paul Revere was the first song where I ever got the true experience of what some THUMPIN bass could do. Used to turn that sheet up to 11 and watch the speakers bounce.
Sad news!
I loved their old punk stuff. My band when I was a teenager covered their song "Egg Raid On Mojo".
I'm 34 now. I remember Ill coming out when I was at YMCA day camp. My folks hated them as they though the Boys were a "bad influence" and "used dirty words." Of course this meant as a young Dirtling I liked them instantly.
Some of the best memories in my life revolve around their music. I remember some strumpet in high school telling everyone we had banged enough in the back of my suburban that she knew all the lyrics to Paul's Boutique and she could read my Beastie Boys sticker upside down and backwards.
Or the first thing I heard when I woke up after getting shot somewhere in Iraq was "Gratitude." Even though I was breathing blood bubbles I knew, somehow, that I was going to be OK.
Or when things got really bleak in my life during my divorce I came across that remix of Hey Ladies. Somehow, it got me off my ass, back in the gym, and back meeting the ladies.
Or when I was just a wee grom in Reno I saw them play with Run DMC.
I really will miss him. And I really am going to square things with Jehova when I get a chance. Take Dick Cheney or the entire cast of The Jersey Shore, but for your own good lord, you should have left the Beastie Boys alone.

A glimpse into my youth....
huge getto blaster on my shoulder, T&C surf shorts, high top Adidas, killer loop shades, kicking a roll on a original powell peralta rat bones board with oj's, heading to the park for a skate sesh while skipping school.
nothing but the licence to ill cassette for months

Sad news indeed. I'm only 21 but I have been listening to the Beastie Boys since day one. Every weekend down in the garage you can be sure to hear some Beastie through the walls as we work on cars etc. It almost seems surreal that MCA is really gone..
You can bet your a**es this weekend will be no different, their music will never die!!!

I'm not gonna lie, I hate the Beastie Boys, but it does suck to hear that a pioneer of the music industry has died.
Definitely not my first show but I will never forget their set at Lola' that year.
