Nas told GlobalGrind:
“One of my greatest moments in music was when I worked with the Beastie Boys… Now today I’m hearing our brother is gone. I prayed this would not happen. MCA was so cool, man. We had great talks about what it was like for them in the beginning, getting into the rap game. I’ll never forget that experience for the rest of my life. MCA is true legend who influenced me. God bless his soul and his loved ones.” – NAS
