DJ Polished Solid takes time out this week to remember and remind us of the incredible musical and humanitarian legacy of Adam Yauch, MCA of Beastie Boys fame. Although no longer with us after losing his battle with cancer we can rest assured that his spirit will live on through the music and people he touched while here. Many thanks to DJ Polished Solid for putting this wonderful tribute together. Make sure to checkout DJ Polished each and every Sunday from 4pm to 6pm on her show No Turn Unstoned right here.
