11:30 AM PT -- MCA's publicist just released a statement, writing, "It is with great sadness that we confirm that musician, rapper, activist and director Adam 'MCA' Yauch ... passed away in his native New York City this morning after a near-three-year battle with cancer. He was 47 years old."
In 2009, MCA announced he was being treated for a cancerous parotid gland and a lymph node (below). He has since undergone surgery and radiation therapy.
I saw the Beastie Boys on the "Hello Nasty" Tour. I thought that was a good show.

 
Crazy that he died. I always loved that band. Pretty cool that you got to see them.
 
I don't think they need to bring him back. Nothing against the guy, but the beastie boys suck
 
Big Beastie Boys fan. Great party tunes from High School and College.
 
Their best album.
