You won’t hear any Beastie Boys songs in commercials. The late Adam Yauch once rapped that he wouldn’t ‘sell my songs for no TV ad.’ Yauch’s will indicated that he does not approve of ads utilizing Beastie Boy songs.”In no event will my image or name or any music or any artistic property created by me be used for advertising purposes,’ says Yauch’s will. Yauch roughly left $6 million to his widow and 13-year old daughter.
