FNG Hall Of Fame: Adam Yauch aka MCA (1964 – 2012)

Brutta storia. Ci lascia oggi Adam Yauch aka MCA, front-man dei Beastie Boys.

Aveva 47 anni e combatteva contro un cancro alla gola dignasticatogli nel 2009. L’anno scorso il peggio sembrava passato, tanto che il mitico trio newyorkese era uscito con il nuovo album, ‘Hot Sauce Committee Part Two’, e  invece…

It is with great sadness that we confirm that musician, rapper, activist and director Adam “MCA” Yauch, founding member of Beastie Boys and also of the Milarepa Foundation that produced the Tibetan Freedom Concert benefits, and film production and distribution company Oscilloscope Laboratories, passed away in his native New York City this morning after a near-three-year battle with cancer. He was 47 years old.

Così comincia il comunicato ufficiale messo online sul sito del gruppo poche ore dopo la scomparsa del grande MCA. Leggete il resto direttamente qui.

Rest In Peace.
