Three weeks after the passing of Adam Yauch,  Rolling Stone has posthumously given the Beastie Boys member the cover of their new issue. The tribute features stories from friends including, Spike Jonze, Rick Rubin, Billy Corgan and many more. Issue hits newsstands on May 25th.

The cover story includes the first interviews given by surviving Beasties Adam Horovitz and Mike Diamond, who address their grief and the question of what they will do now that their band is effectively over. “I’m totally confused,” says Horovitz. “I’m walking my dog and I’ll start crying on the street.”

    Rest In Peace MCA. Truly heartbreaking. Just reading the excerpt from Adrock is saddening. Beastie Boys defined a generation. Hip Hop fans are forever grateful.

    this is true…. i can’t imagine how they both feel as it relates to getting back in the studio…or even writing lyrics with MCA gone! the brotherhood these guys shared is still impactful even tho MCA is gone….

    R.I.P.

    I don’t know the last time I bought Rolling Stone, but I am def picking up a copy. Respect to the Beasties. They are without one of the best rap groups ever. Beats, rhymes, stage presence-just smooth as it gets. RIP MCA. As a white jewish kid growing up in the 80s, it was amazing to have these incredible 3 dudes representing us in the game.
