so much of the beastie's music still sounds incredibly fresh, much respect.

R.I.P. MCA :bowdownAll:

One of my favorite Beastie tracks that unfortunately never was officially released:





Just yesterday someone pointed this out to me. This was from 1999, the World Trade Center can been seen in the background. I'd never heard this song or seen this video. Cool to find something you didn't know about. Also, the video is shot in a lot of my favorite New York City bike riding spots.

"Adam Yauch's Will Prohibits Use of Beastie Boys Songs in Advertisements"

"The late Adam Yauch-- aka Beastie Boys' MCA-- took care to ensure his legacy as a true punk before he died. DNAInfo reports that his will prohibits the use of Beastie Boys songs in advertisements, which happens often with deceased artists. It's a pretty bold move that cements Yauch's ideological reputation, considering the amount of money there is to be made by corporations likely desperate to use the Beastie Boys' trademark sound in their commercials.
Yauch's will was filed on Tuesday in a Manhattan Surrogate Court, and places his entire fortune in a $6.4 million trust for his wife and daughter. He's allowed his wife the right to sell and/or manage his art. Still, it's possible the surviving two Beastie Boys will be able to sell their collective music to advertisers."

Damn straight. I doubt Mike and Adam will sell their music either.

I'm a bit surprised his fortune was $6.4 million, I figured it would be much higher. And somehow Jay Z is a mogul or something.

Still can't believe he's gone.
