    This just shows what a highly respected musician and humanitarian Adam Yauch was. 1980’s, three white rappers accused of being a passing fad, one album Wonders, walked the globe, breaking down stereotypes and barriers bringing beats as raw as botulism and becoming one of the most highly respected groups in the biz. RIP Adam Yauch, I could still cry.

      Elton is a class act. I'm sure he's heard their cover of Bennie and the Jets with Biz Markie and Elton probably laughed his ass off. RIP MCA.

    Sir Elton is one of the rare entertainers who gave proper credit where it was due to the generation that came after him.
    I've heard him talk about how he thought that 'Nothing Else Matters' by Metallica was one of the greatest songs he's ever heard.

      @@bobdigi88 some friendships come and go. Imagine how many people Elton John has met throughought his career. Sure his friendship with Blue might be an example of how he tends to make things sound better than they really are. But no need for you to hate on him, i'm convinced he only does things like these in the video cause he is a great loving person, but also a human like the rest of us Who, sometimes just gets tired on relations with certain people.
