This sucks. Was a big fan. RIP.

 

[Orangesmokey]

I saw this just a few mins ago. Was coming here to post it. Sad that he lost his battle with cancer. They made some good music as a group.

 

[GreatWhiteNorth]

Awful news. I really enjoyed Check Your Head when they played all their own instruments.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Geez I didn't even know he was sick.

 

[slh1089]

I had no clue that he was sick. Sad day.

 

[vader]

I am a fan. RIP.

 

[vader]

Awful news. I really enjoyed Check Your Head when they played all their own instruments.

Probably my favorite album of theirs, though Paul's Boutique is right up there for me.

 

[Nerd-Vol]

One of my favorite groups of all time.

 

[BenGrimm]

This has ruined my day.

RIP MCA

 

[DinkinFlicka]

He was my favorite, too. This sucks.

 

[volsforever27]

Damn it. This sucks.

 

[SDV]

Awful

 

[BenGrimm]

He was my favorite, too. This sucks.

Love your avatar by the way. Tribe and Beasties are my all time have hip hop acts (Outkast is up there too).

 

[xJesusx56]

Always wanted to see them live. Sad day. RIP MCA.

 

[BearCat204]

I had no clue that he was sick. Sad day.

I think he was diagnosed back in 09

 

[BenGrimm]

Just posted this in the Movies and Music forum too. This is a sad day indeed.

Can't think of a better byproduct of the existence of MTV.

If you aren't singing Paul Revere in your head right now, we probably don't have a lot in common.

 

[volsforever27]

Brass Monkey...

 

[milohimself]

Brass Monkey...

That funky monkey













Drinking those tonight.

 

[Orangesmokey]

I always thought the video to Sabotage was great!!

 

[milohimself]

Sabotage is probably my favorite music video of all-time.

 

[volsforever27]

Wonder if he's dressed up as Nathaniel Hornblower in heaven.

All kidding aside, this has ruined my day. MCA dies, but Justin Bieber lives. Not fair.

 

[BenGrimm]

If you aren't singing Paul Revere in your head right now, we probably don't have a lot in common.

Coincidently I was in the car earlier streaming music from Pandora and that song came on just as I was about to pull up to the house. I sat in the car and finished listening to it. Then I came in and saw the news.

 

[MadcapLaughs]

Was one of the best.

In the pre interweb days, reading the liner notes and lyrics on Paul's Boutique was an oasis of pop culture and coolness knowledge.

Saw them with the Roots and Blues Explosion, lollapolooza, and the hello nasty tour.
Will never forget rushing the stage at he omni when Yauch played the opening notes to Gratitude.

Wow.
