MCA of the Beastie Boys dead at 47

This breaking news has just been reported by TMZ.  Adam Yauch (aka MCA), one-third of the iconic hip hop group The Beastie Boys, is dead at 47.  Long before the term Juggalo was even around, I was a fan of the Beastie Boys.  So all we can say is best wishes, and our thoughts are with Mr. Yauch's friends and family.  Rest in Peace MCA.
