Its called Denial. And he didn't want to hurt future concert sales and revenues. An idiot could see that his medical situation was worse than he way sharing. Yes its sad. But he should have been more honest IMHO.
The beastie boys have always seemed truthful in their comments. I don't believe he's lieing for monetary gain as your suggesting. He seems honest and forthright here about his confidence of getting better eventually.
I said the same thing I read what I was about to post but you beat me to it many years ago. Sound like it was so hopeful like it was contained get it out and move on fuck man sounded so hopeful fucking cancer
I had the same thing also and got a parotidectomy my doctor told me at shortly after the surgery if it had gotten into the lympnode it's not so curable. Knowing him he just didn't want to scare us fans. Fuck cancer
and how exactly do they bleed you for money when you're dead genius? wouldn't it make more sense to keep the 'sheeple' alive, or does that not fit into your ridiculous conspiracy theories?
I couldn't believe he was laughing. What a sport. I can't believe he was apologizing like that, dude loves his fans, and that is why I respect him so much.
@@fuzzydunlop1753 yea all the shit he arranged and the things he was passionate about was straight from his heart and it was some good shit. We all miss him
It's so damn sad to see how strong he was. Not to mention compassionate and caring. Was undoubtedly scared at least to some extent on the inside, but never lost hope, even in the face of cancer and long odds. MCA, a true legend.
+Mark M I've never seen this before. So heartbreaking. Adam Horovitz looked like he was really trying to hold it together. Just so sad. His Mom said, "He lived too short of a life, but it was a happy one." So brave facing rotten cancer.
“I want to say a little something that's long overdue The disrespect to women has got to be through To all the mothers and the sisters and the wives and friends I want to offer my love and respect to the end” I remember at the beginning of my seventh grade year just getting into the Beastie Boys’ music and it automatically got my attention, I’ve never heard anything like it the Beastie Boys will always be my favorite and Adam Yauch is such an amazing person R.I.P
I cried over Adam today. He was such a beautiful kind soul and a musical genius. He is my favorite voice in the bunch, but I love them all so much. Rest easy MCA, I love you and thank you for the music and the inspiration and the overall feeling of happiness when I hear or see you preform. I hope to meet you in person on the other side and throw down some beats and let it flow, we'll let ourselves go. I love you Adam and am grateful to be apart of the Beastie Boys family
He had the bubonic plague. He prob caught it in tibet. Look up his zodiac sign. Leo. It is said leos karma is to die of the bubonic plague. It affects the lymph nodes like a bump.
mikeisagodd2012 the fuck dude? How can you say shit like that man? The human thing to say would have been something like I wish neither of you had cancer.
Awesome. Good luck and well wishes, MCA. Back in 2004, I was diagnosed with lymphoma which was a form of cancer. To make a long story short, my illness was curable because it was caught ealier. Today, I'm pretty much 100% cured.
Such a kind and optimistic guy, he stays positive by saying "the good news is the cancer is only in my neck". Laughing throughout the interview and still having a good time... R.I.P MCA
Started to watch this but 15 seconds into it my eyes started watering and I started crying. I've always said that crying over a celebrity was stupid because you never even knew them but now I understand. Adam was more than just my favorite member out of my favorite group; he was my inspiration and I looked up to him big time. Still can't believe it. RIP MCA :'(
I remember in middle school, my dad came home so sad and talking to my mom telling her how sad he was because of Adams passing. My dad had been listening to them literally since the beginning when he was 16 years old! And Adam was his favorite member out of the band. RIP MCA we still miss you 🥺🖤🖤
As someone who's had two primary cancers. Endometrial cancer and squamous cell carcinoma that spread to my bones I can see why he thought it was beatable. I can also understand why he apologizes and tries to laugh it off. I've done both myself. However when you hear terminal being said your life takes a huge heartbreak. I think him saying he's sorry is also a double meaning as well as I watch this video. I got to see them in the 80's, 90's and 2000's and I consider myself lucky. I was given 18 months. I was running 10 miles a day and slowly bleeding internally. I've had many surgeries with one being a partial hip replacement plus many organs removed. I went from running to being in a wheelchair because if I coughed I would fracture a bone. I am in less than 1% to get a remission for my type of cancer and I see others like this with an easy to treat and kill cancer and it makes me feel so sad and blessed. Dr's, friends and family like to encourage you and make you feel like you're going to be OK but I'm sorry even if it is "easy to kill" you never truly feel that way inside because we know anything can happen. Now I'm sitting here crying watching this video feeling so bad because survivors guilt is real especially if others in your family died young or have a spouse or children. I single no children so that made it much easier for me without knowing I might leave a burden on someone else plus the burden of a family member having to care for you for years. Cancer and so many other illnesses can take your life away and your dreams but the medicines used to treat cancer and sometimes way worse than the actual cancer. I pray for a cure for this illness along with other illnesses including autoimmune diseases because there's nothing worse than being in so much pain for years. For anyone fighting an illness and to the caretakers be easy on yourself and know it's OK to be not OK and it's OK to not want to talk about it or to talk about it. There's no wrong decision even when it comes to treatments.
i am a grown ass man. i grew up and partied to these guys music. like most, i thought they were just a flash-in-the-pan in the beginning. these guys stayed in there and fought and earned respect. now, when i think about this cool ass dude passing so young i just want to cry. Adam/MCA, brother, you will be missed greatly. to the family and the other BB's please accept my condolences.
Still hard to believe he died. So so young at 47. Not fair that other people treat their bodies like crap with drugs and alcohol and live until their 90. Still, I am sure MCA is keeping shit together in heaven, maybe chillin' with all the other musicians. His music lives on.
I still shed a tear for MC A, one of my fondest moments were the neighbors complaining about playing my first BB album, Licensed to I’ll, i was 12 and living in abroad. Rest In Peace brother, your band made it possible for Rap to become mainstream, LL, Public Enemy among others owe their ability to break in by 3 kids just having fun.
Man, you can see Ad Rock's attempt at keeping a straight face is failing. 7 years MCA and you are still in my heart whenever I think about creating or being the best person I can be-you are an excellent role model. Ad Rock you are an excellent example of sincerity and humor, Mike D you are an excellent example of how we should never shy away from being ourselves....COUNTRY MIKE or MMMMMMMMM MIKE D!! I love you guys!!
Cancer has no discrimination and sadly will visit all our families at sometime. Adam was such a caring soul, my most humbling experience was visiting my childhood best friend. He hadn't long, he was actually making his will out, but insisted I stay. A loving father, son and husband, a real force of nature and had life and fun shining from him, no one hated this guy. We spent an hour and a half laughing joking and taking the P out of each other. To see such a hard working fit man reduced to losing use of his legs, bowels, bloated and bald in pain able to give me time was very spiritual, he glowed with love and humour. Never have I witnessed such dignity and peace in a person nearing their end. Unfortunately I have experienced close loved ones fight cancer to the end. But Vincent my friend you deserved better and went out the hero and great person you always were. RIP
Adam apologizes to his fans for putting them out or them having to re-arrange schedules for the now cancelled/postponed concerts the Beastie Boys were going to do so he can have critical cancer treatment...he loved us that much, when he was facing an uncertain fate/death ; this is the measure of the man. We miss you Adam/MCA. R.I.P. Adam.
Class act! Adam Yauch was one of my favorite rappers/MCs of all time, both on stage and out in the world. A lot of teens listening to "rap music" needs to sit down and listen to the Beastie Boys. My dad did back in the 90's and I gave my brother the same tape my dad gave me a few years back.
Pure and straight from the heart. true, real LEDGENDS. It's interesting that often the truly great artist who last far beyond there generation are so humble. PLUS, I missed getting my tix to the Bowl show, and we all get to hear AdRcok on the BANJO!!! Do it king.
I went through the same thing at the same time very similar types but mine did effect my voice but was able to overcome from it! BB fan since I was 10 in 86 so I was inspired to do the right thing 😢
Wish we could pause this and it would be the same in realt time so, something could have been done to keep hime with us. stupid comment but it's whatb i thought 30seconds before writing this.
Rest In Peace, ADAM, aka, MCA....We miss you already. I've never cried so hard. You were not just a celebrity to many of us that grew up with you and your music and your talents. You were one of us. And we all Loved you, Love you, and you will be truly missed. I've never cried so hard. Hope to see you again, and I know you are rocking, God in Heaven.
I am so sad to hear this :'( Many blessing to you and your, Adam. You used your fame and fortune to try to make the world a better place. You will be missed. FREE TIBET
To be honest he even looks unwell , Still laughing to stay positive,.R.I.P legend. My good friend has 6 months to live because of cancer. Sick of it too many family and friends have gone lately.
It's just so crushing to see how confident he was about his cancer to the point of making jokes about it. MCA you are the greatest.
Its called Denial. And he didn't want to hurt future concert sales and revenues. An idiot could see that his medical situation was worse than he way sharing. Yes its sad. But he should have been more honest IMHO.
Its actually a very curable form of cancer. I was very surprised when he passed, the survival rate is like 95%
@@robmausser I had read that he opted for holistic medicine only

All three of them are angels.
I remember watching this back then and feeling so relieved when he said that it's treatable and he's going to be OK.
Guy has cancer, and apologizes for it. Too sad.
He is so underrated as an MC! His voice is out of this world.
