Update on Beastie Boy Adam Yauch October 9, 2009
Posted by Megan Rondeau | Permalink | Comments ( 5 ) | TrackBackIn July of this year, legendary hip-hop pioneers, Beastie Boys, surprised fans with some really upsetting news. Via a video posted on their website, MCA and Ad Rock (a.k.a. Adam Yauch and Adam Horovitz) announced that the Beasties would have to cancel their upcoming scheduled performances and postpone the release of their album, Hot Sauce Committee Part 1. Adam Yauch was diagnosed with cancer after a tumor was discovered in the left parotid gland in his throat. Immediately, get-well wishes and messages of support starting pouring in for the singer, who has done so much for music, culture, and the betterment of humanity for so many years.

Glad to hear you're feeling better MCA! peta2 wishes you a speedy recovery!
P.S. Changing what you eat can change your life. A vegan diet has been proven to reduce the risk of heart disease, cancer, stroke, and diabetes.
