Marquee: Remembering the Beastie Boys' greatest hits. Marquee: Celebs devastated by tragic news. He announced he would have surgery within a week, followed by nearly two months of localized radiation treatment.
He said the cancer was also in a lymph node. The survival rate depends on whether the cancer has spread to other parts of the body. Watch video of Yauch talking about his diagnosis. If surgeons can't completely remove the cancer from the gland it can spread to the lungs and other parts of the body, she said.
Because the cancer is rare, it has been difficult for researchers to figure out what causes it. There are a few risk factors, the cancer society says, one of which is having radiation treatment to the head and neck for other medical reasons. Workplace exposure may also increase risk. It is a difficult surgery to remove the cancerous cells, because the facial nerve goes through the parotid, according to the cancer society website.
The site says both surgical methods and radiation treatments have improved in recent years. Unfortunately, targeted drugs have not been very effective against salivary gland cancer. So sad. He was too young. If you never heard "Paul's Boutique" their second album — you should check it out.
When the record companies and the business side of the industry wanted them to make another Licensed to Ill, they did what true artists did and went to the frontier. It was ahead of it's time. I think I didn't even listen to it much for the first couple of years. But then I picked it back up, and it was true genius. When he was young, he acted like a child, but he really grew up in the 's. He really became a role model through his advocacy of good causes.
He always had time for charity events and was a tireless proponent of political and religious freedom. This wasn't a show or image — he really cared about the plight of people. He believed in peace — may he rest in peace.
Without doubt he left this world a better place. At the time, no one knew what to think of Paul's Boutique. It was deemed a commercial "failure". Yet the album might very well be the greatest rap albums ever made.
Between the crazy raps of the Beasties to the unbelievable samples compiled by The Dust Brothers which, in this day and age of copyright infringement, wouldn't happen , it is ear candy 23 years later. Adam Yauch was a true artist and humanitarian. He will be missed. So sad, I'm curious what side of his face was the cancer found? I'm not trying to be funny think about it.
Mattrix Parotid Glands are not in the immediate vicinity of where you hold a cell phone. There is zero need for completely wild and misinformed speculation, thanks. MatrixWut—Actually the parotid gland is in very close proximity to where you would hold a cell phone. The upper part of the gland sits in front of the ear at about the level of the ear canal and the rest of the gland wraps around the angle of the mandible and extends into the upper neck.
There is no evidence to link radiation exposure from cell phone usage to these cancers. However if there is a spike in the incidence of these cancers down the road it would be worthwhile to consider a link to cell phone usage as a possible cause.
As the article mentioned, salivary gland cancers are quite rare when compared to other more common cancers breast, lung, prostate etc. I remember Paul's Boutique and I loved it from the first time I popped it into my tape deck.
It didn't come out for months. The first cassettes that were released came in neon green and orange, wish I still had it but I literally wore it out. Awesome album. Yeah that's right, my name's Yauch! Peace be with you, MCA Radiation can cause it maybe, the article says.
That would include dental x-rays, once thought to be too low a dose to pose any danger, but now it has been found cause an increase in brain cancer. So, if low-dose x-rays could cause brain cancer, and the brain is shielded behind bone, what about closer glands? Gland tissue is always more susceptible than muscle. I would include cell phone radiation in low-dose sources of radiation. A singer also tends to wear a higher-dose radio mike, and that might have an effect too.
Actually, I bought Paul's Boutique on the first day it came out and I got a red copy of the cassette. My other friend that bought it got yellow. I've never seen the orange, but have seen blue, too, and yes I've seen people mention that Paul's may be one of the most influential rap albums of all-time and while that is true I also think it is worth mentioning that the segues from song to song had a profound influence on both Electronic and Indie, also.
The album was truly genre defiant. Like exactly. Draw a line between the corner of your mouth and the opening to your ear, the parotid gland is under that entire area.
Its best not to call out someone for incorrect info when you have no idea what you're talking about. Tsk, tsk I had the same type of tumor and had surgery to remove my parotid gland in June My doctor told my that cell phones or any type of radition cause this.
Sometimes there is not reason why they form. A great man will be missed. I still remember buying that firt tape as well, with that awesome cover of the JumboJet crashing. I'm amazed by how many people miss out on this. I relish, cause I found exactly what I used to be having a look for. You've ended my 4 day lengthy hunt! God Bless you man. Have a nice day. Gupta — you need to talk about HPV-related oral cancers in young men. I don't know Yauch's medical history, but the same sexually transmitted HPV virus that causes cervical cancer in women is also linked to an epidemic of oral and neck cancers in men.
People need to know this and have their children vaccinated with Gardasil. It is life and death. His case was probably caused by radiation or something, but yes, both young men and women should be vaccinated against HPV, because those cancers are wicked and very hard to fight. I hope Adam returns to us soon and that he achieve the enlightenment he sought in life to allow him to do so.
If you have not read the lyrics to Yauch's track "bodhisattva vow" you should do so. I knew this was coming but it's still overwhelming. I remember sitting in a school bus listening to the only rap station in LA, on am mind you, and hearing brass monkey for the first time. The b boys only got better with time.
MCA will be missed and he is that much closer to leaving sumsara for nirvana. God Bless You Adam. You were so great. My sister has the Licesened To Ill Album and she loves it. RIP Adam. I just lost my 77 year-old father to cancer of the parotid which had spread to the lymph nodes. More risk factors include long-term exposure to UVA rays and western-european lineage. The average person who gets parotid carcinoma called squamous cell carcinoma is a white male 76 years old who is of western-european descent who has had prolonged exposure to UVA rays.
My father was 76 when he was diagnosed. He worked outdoors when he was young and enjoyed fishing and other outdoor recreation. This disease is agressive. Most patients die of complications, such as pneumonia, staph, and organ failure. I miss you, Daddy. The world is a poorer place without you. Sorry for your loss. My husband has cancer; there are many different forms, actually different diseases.
Although chemo doesn't work for many people with this, I'm surprised that they didn't even try it. Body chemistry is much more complex than anybody used to think. I had surgery to remove the same type of tumor.
It was June 7, I remember being in my hospital, being perpared for surgery, watching Good Morning America and they saying it was the artist Prince's birthday. I had a lump on the side of my face near my right ear. I asked my doctor how did it get there because I do not drink or smoke and I do not have a history of cancer in my family. He told me that sometimes for cause is unknown. He did not say anything about radiation or cell phone use. And to think my doctor send me to my ear, nose and throat doctor to have my tonsitis taken out because chronic bouts of sore throats and tonsillitis!
I complain about the scar going down my face and the side effects of the surgery, but I am still here! Having had a cancer of the parotid gland over 30 years ago at age 22, I can understand how rare it is. Back then there was a 1 in 20 chance of survival after 2 years, so it is good to see how the survival rates are much higher now. The long term problems with this type of cancer are caused by the radiation treatments, which created a coupld of new cancers over the years. Sad to hear that someone didn't make it with this type of cancer given how treatments have progressed.
Once cancer hits the lymphic system it spreads way too fast. And sadly, there wasn't anything he could do to prevent it, because this type of cancer really has no definite cause, other than "just because". My 71 year old mother has parotid gland cancer. She starts chemo next week. Do you know of any support groups? A real shame he had to die so young.
But on the bright side, he had more amazing life experiences than many people twice his age. His was not a life wasted. But his music will live on What a trailblazer, I have no idea how he got the courage to be a White rapper during the beginning when rap was shunned by the masses. But just hearing their music it became a culture. I would hope to produce and help others as he as a musician and humanitarian has. RIP Adam Yauch.

I'll be returning to your website for more soon. Very useful advice in this particular post! It is the little changes that will make the biggest changes. Many thanks for sharing! An impressive share! I've just forwarded this onto a friend who had been doing a little research on this.
And he actually bought me dinner simply because I stumbled upon it for him So allow me to reword this Thanks for the meal!! But yeah, thanks for spending the time to talk about this issue here on your website. Good blog you've got here.. I honestly appreciate people like you! Take care!!
Nice post. He is credited for coming up with the name Beastie Boys and hosting the group's first practices and performances in front of an audience at his apartment. In a speech written by Adam Yauch and read by Adam Horowitz Ad-Rock at the Beastie Boys' Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction, Yauch thanked Berry and his loft on Street and Broadway "where John's dad would come busting in during our first performances screaming, 'Will you turn that fucking shit off already?!
Berry was the first to leave the Beastie Boys after playing on the band's first seven-inch EP Polly Wog Stew in late , followed soon by Schellenbach. Horowitz came in to replace both members, creating the lineup that's well known today. Search term. Billboard Pro Subscribe Sign In. Top Artists.
