Founding member of The Beastie Boys, MCA (Adam Yauch), lost his battle with cancer today. The Beastie Boys were the first rap group I heard in white bread Newport. I instantly loved it, and wanted more. In light of MCA's passing, here are some covers of Beastie Boys' songs, or songs covered by the Beastie Boys themselves. Enjoy.
