MCA Day everyday! I was 13 years old when I first heard The Beastie Boys and I am now 39! I feel like I have lost someone I grew up with and I still have, a month later, a hard time to process this loss. Thank you Adam MCA Yauch for inspiring me to be a better a human being and for all you did!

So many great memories. Adam meant more to me than words can describe. I've been influenced and inspired by Adam and the Beastie Boys for 27 years. I wouldn't be the person I am today without them. In particular, Adam showed me that it's ok to evolve and mature, and still be young at heart. He also taught me that you need to enjoy your loved ones while they're here, because there are only so many tomorrows. You have my thoughts and prayers. Miss you MCA.

The first group I EVER saw on stage: April 1985 San Francisco Civic Auditorium some raunchy white rappers named "The Beastie Boys" opening up for Madonna on her Like A Virgin Tour. Licensed To Ill wasn't even out. These 3 crazy guys got booed off stage...
Little did I know I was introduced to one of my favorite groups ever that I would see numerous times again, who would make (IMHO) the greatest pure hip hop album ever in Paul's Boutique...
Thank you Adam for gifts you gave us all. You enriched my life though I never met you. You are already missed...
R.I.P. Adam "MCA" Yauch...

Adam- since this news has reached i have been carrying a very heavy heart. Im saddended beyond expectations brother, although i never got to meet you personally it feels like ive lost a brother. You taught me so much about life and myself. Your taught me about composure ,conviction, love and compassion, as well as blowing my mind with your music , your flow, lyrics and style . You brought to my attention so many importan things in my life - from the harrowing issues surrouding Tibet, to how you fall (literally fall) into a groove of music. Movements and music. You were the best my man , never forgoten, forever living strong in my heart . From your brother Lewis Leicester UK (love to ad and mike ) x

Adam, I didn't know you and that kills me because I'll never get to tell you how much you meant to me because you were my number one inspiration. I wish I was born in the 80's so I could have witnessed your amazing rise from the beginning. You will continue to inspire me..

Thanks. The Beasties have played on my stereo since I was a kid. Still have at least two of your CD's in my car at all times. But the path you chose has made the biggest impact on my life. May your family be blessed forever and a day.

I am saddened beyond words that the music i have loved since 1986 has been silenced. I send my thoughts and condolences to your family as well Mike & Adam. I am devastated, i cannot even imagine the saddness those who were fortunate enough to know andlove you must feel. You and the Beasties music will forever remain a part of my heart.

MCA---Thanks for showing us all how to grow, mature, evolve, give, laugh, and most importantly love.
From my middle school days in the 80's till my mid 30's now, MCA and the B. Boys have played a soundtrack to my life, and an entire generation. My most memorable times on the school bus, to the high school parties, to the college parties, the spring breaks, to blasting the stereo in my car on I95, have all been accompanied by the luscious grooves and rhymes of the Beastie Boys.
Your light will never go out! My deepest prayers, and sympathies to his brothers AdRock and Mike. D, his wife and daughter, his family, and many friends.

What can I say, except you were an inspiration to me. I can barely remember a time before the B Boys.
Probably the best concert I have seen was in 92 at the Peony Park ballroom in my hometown of Omaha, NE. Non stop energy the whole way thru! Adam swinging from the chandelier..awesome!
Thanks for the music and memories. You will be missed 4eva.

I'll always hold a special memory in my heart for Adam. When Elvis Presley died I watched my mother weep for days, not knowing that I myself would feel that very same loss the day that MCA left us for his next adventure. Namaste, MCA. Peace be with you.

Never in my life have I been more sad about the passing of a soul I didn't know. My generation grew up with the rhymes of the Beastie Boys, from singing on the bus to all of the Licensed to Ill album, to my high school party days with Check your Head.
Adam grew up too, and with that he showed us all how to live our lifes with humility, compassion, creativity, love, and some humor on the side. There will never be another like him, but keep his memory alive by doing something good for your neighbor, friend or loved one, and never stop chasing your dreams and passions.
My heart goes out to his beastie brothers Adam and Mike, and to his family. We were all blessed to have him touch our lives in all the ways that only he could. Peace.

When I first got my hands on "Licensed to Ill", I spent hours trying to learn all of the words to "Paul Revere". I can still recite that whole album to this day. God bless you MCA and all of your family and friends, RIP...so sad... you will be missed.

I still cry at the thought that you are gone. That a wife is without her husband. A child without her father. A trio without their brother. And future generations without inspiration from what was the Beastie Boys.

I love Yauch's bass playing, lyrics and voice. Paul's Boutique and Pollywog Stew are definitely in my top twenty. He did a lot of good for the world and has good Karma, no doubt.
It's not known by everyone, but this guy did the best, most accurate voice impersonations that I have EVER heard. Genuinely warm, funny guy. I feel terrible.
Peace be with your spirit, as it finds its next life.

I still can't believe it. I'm 34 and the beasties boys were without a doubt the most influential band in my life. I have so many great memories that involved the beasties. From singing "fight for your right" in the back seat of my parents car or drinking with friends listening to "hello nasty". Mca you will be missed by so many. My prayers are with you and all of yours. RIP
