Being middle eastern and in high school at the time I recorded this because I am a huge beastie fan. I remember the feeling of solidarity I felt as a young teen. MCA was far ahead of his time and truly beautiful human being. So much gratitude 💛

Some people are ahead of their time. Adam, it appears, was ahead not just in Music, but as a human being. Rest In Peace.

You can tell Chuck’s intro was from the heart. He was proud of his friends.

RIP MCA one of the greatest mcs of all times.... it didn't matter if u were black or white, gay, straight or a hermaphrodite, Adam Yauch was man that taught everyone to love respect one other to live in a better place where we can party.... MCA thanks for the good rhymes and the positivity you taught us

Strange how this is so relevant all over again.

RIP Adam Yauch. Smarter than any politician.

Adam on point! It's 2021 and his words are timeless!

The reason why people care when musicians die is because music changes us in a personal way. Even though we might not know him personally we can relate through music and that's what makes it beautiful.

I love how they dressed like boring office workers and didn't even mention it. I'd like to think it was an inside joke. RIP MCA. You're sorely missed

There are 4 people in the group. But MTV forgets about Mix Master Mike. SMH. Just one of the greatest DJ's of all time. No biggie.
