Because SLEEP IS FOR THE WEAK, here's what happened the morning after "Fight for your Right (to Party)" was recorded.

From the Beasties' Hot Sauce Committee, whether you call the album Part 1 or 2 depends on how you count a Part, and whether part one has to come out before part two.

Goodnight, and (you saw this coming, didn't you?) RIP, MCA.

I didn't know this was a parody, I thought this happened for real.

It did - it's not a parody - which was the whole joke.  Written, directed & produced by Adam Yauch (aka, the late MCA).  The list of celebrities doing cameos at t=24:55 is pretty impressive too.

I wonder if any surviving members will make good on "Check back in 25 years".  They'll be in their 70s by 2036, but with a little computer help, that's no real barrier to creating music.

You're forgiven, because you helped me rediscover something I saw a few years ago.  Someone redid the entire song in children's book format:

Quick, dirty, and hilarious:

This has been a really cruddy month, being that Adam Yauch and Donna Summer, died all in the same month. And to top it off, Levon Helm died the month before that.
