Adam Nathaniel Yauch (5 augustus 1964 – 4 mei 2012 ) Jongens worden mannen, mannen worden oude mannen, en oude mannen worden vroeger of later schimmen, herinneringen, slechts een achtergebleven beeld van de man die ze ooit waren. Het is al weer enige tijd geleden dat Adam Yauch, beter bekend als MCA, één van de drie Beastie Boys, ons achter liet omdat hij veel te snel een oude man geworden was die een gevecht aan moest gaan met een ziekte waar het moeilijk, en dus uiteindelijk niet, van te winnen was. De Beastie Boys [...]

Before the Beastie Boy Adam Yauch passed away from cancer in May of this year , he made one thing very clear in his will: no commercial can feature any music written by him. Along with other artists like Levon Helm of The Band and Tom Waits , Yauch was very much against the usage of music for advertisement purposes. While Yauch's wishes may appear to be valid, but an article by Wendy S. Goffe in Forbes makes a point that some [...]
The Beastie Boys will fight for their right to protect their music. The group is suing Monster Energy Corp. for illegally using several of their songs in a series of ads, against the wishes of the trio's late member, Adam "MCA" Yauch . Yauch, who died in May after a long bout with cancer, stipulated in his will that his image and music could not be used for advertising purposes. His wife, Dechen Yauch, has the right to sell and manage his artistic property, as long as [...]

DNAInfo is reporting that the late Adam 'MCA' Yauch of the influential hip-hop group Beastie Boys put a statement in his will that prohibits the use of Beastie Boys' music in advertisements.

Adam Yauch , mais conhecido como MCA dos Beastie Boys , garantiu que seu legado não seja veiculado a propagandas após sua morte. O rapper, que faleceu devido a um câncer em uma glândula salivar em maio deste ano, determinou em seu testamento que sua imagem, música e arte não poderão ser usados para publicidade, assim como já aconteceu com vários outros artistas. O documento foi lido na terça-feira (07), em Manhattam, e sua fortuna de 6,4 milhões de dólares foi deixada para sua esposa, que também ficou com o controle de venda e administração [...]
There are many Beastie Boys lyrics that float around in my head, ready to be recalled at any moment. One in particular goes back to 19982s Hello Nasty and the song "Putting Shame In Your Game". It's the third verse where MCA raps in his signature gravel tone, "I might stick around or I might be a fad, but I won't sell my song for no TV ad." Those sentiments were echoed in 20042s To The 5 Boroughs and the record "Triple Trouble" where he raps, "What you get is what you see, and you won't [...]
You know what's probably the most punk thing ever? Dedicating a portion of your will to prohibiting companies from using your music in commercials and advertisements. That's exactly what the late Adam "MCA" Yauch , of Beastie Boys , did. As you are likely thinking: Yes, Ad-Rock and Mike D could choose to sell the music if they wanted to at some point. But do you really think they'd do that to MCA's (and their ) legacy? No fucking way. RIP MCA. [ via ]
It's been a rough few months since Beastie Boys founding member Adam Yauch passed away at the all-too-tender age of 47. Though his absence leaves a yawning void in our hearts, his legacy as MCA leaves decades of amazing, groundbreaking music well worth celebrating. And that's precisely the point of the event the folks at ... Continue reading

This weekend marks the 11th iteration of Manchester, Tennessee's Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival. At the inaugural fest in 2002, it was a jam-band paradise, heavy on the noodling but light on the zeitgeist. Each year, though, it has expanded in size and scope, and this year's lineup is the biggest and arguably the most eclectic yet. Featuring everyone from Bon Iver to Skrillex to Das Racist , Bonnaroo clearly has its finger on the pulse of pop music. So ahead of Bonnaroo's 11th running, [...]

There are the essential albums that need to be in everyone's collection. There are the personal favorites, the ones that aren't highly acclaimed but still get played every once in a while. And then there are the albums that you stick in the back of your collection because you want to forget that you spent money on them. "Own It or Disown It" gives the writer the opportunity to look at such discarded albums and determine if they are diamonds in the rough or if they deserve to be used as mini-frisbees. [...]
Atención a las declaraciones de Beastie Boys para Rolling Stone , porque tienen mucha miga. Como sabéis, hace unas semanas, desgraciadamente nos dejaba Adam Yauch, integrante del famoso trío, que había estado luchando contra un cáncer con el que al final perdió la batalla. La noticia saltaba a la red y las reacciones de fanáticos y otros artistas del mundo de la música no se hacían esperar. La atención de la prensa y de los medios especializados volvió a girar una vez más hacia Beastie Boys, por una noticia triste, pero que como suele pasar [...]
With the tributes already pouring out, we now receive word from straight from the Beastie Boys that we can expect more music from them, MCA included. In fact, the hip-hop legends had recorded music with the late great back in late 2011, despite him being diagnosed with cancer back in 2009. It appears that Yauch insisted on recording in the studio, even being able to lend some of his vocals to the mix. "Adam instigated it. It could only come from him, in terms of where he was at with his cancer [...]
"I'm totally numb," Adam Horovitz of the Beastie Boys said bluntly, in his only interview following the death on May 4th of his bandmate Adam Yauch. Sitting in the New York office of the Beasties' publicist, only 10 days after Yauch's passing, Horovitz fondly recalled their lifetime together in punk, hip-hop and hijinks. He also struggled to describe his feelings after his friend's death and admitted that healing was slow in coming. "My wife is like, 'I want to make sure you're getting it out.' But then I'm walking the dog and I'll start [...]
