Adam Yauch, better known to music fans as MCA of the legendary hip hop triumvirate Beastie Boys, passed away today at the age of 47 following a hard-fought battle with cancer.
Russell Simmons’ Global Grind confirmed the tragic news this afternoon.
In 2009 Yauch announced that he was being treated for a cancerous tumor in his salivary gland. In 2011, Yauch posted an update on the Beastie Boys’ website telling friends and fans he was not cancer-free as reported, but was “staying optimistic and hoping to be cancer free in the near future.”
