Since MCA passed away on May 4th, Mike D. and Ad-rock have done very limited speaking on the death of their friend and bandmate in the Beastie Boys.

On Sunday night, Ad-Rock released a statement via BeastieBoys.com with his thoughts, and today Mike D. posted a [...]

Punk-angst with some of the best structured songs to come out of the 80's, Licensed To Ill is what happens when you take a visionary like Rick Rubin (hate him or love him, the man is still a genius) and put him in a room with three kids out of New York who were hungry, talented, and ready to make an artistic change.
