Kate Schellenbach, the original drummer was my HS classmate ( it was her shirt that Ad-rocsk stole to wear for the iconic video). paraphrasing what I read elsewhere: License to Ill was a hilariously juvenile bolt of uninhibited, irresponsible fun that was the first #1 selling rap album. There was a time when they were being held by Tipper Gore and others as everything wrong in our culture, and indeed some of their early lyrics are incredibly offensive. But for most people they were just the class clowns and I will miss MCA and the good memories associated with listening back in those crazy-hazy teen years. They were a lot of fun!
