"Beastie Boys star Adam Horovitz has opened up for the first time about late bandmate Adam Yauch. Horovitz said that he is still devastated by the rapper&amp;#039;s death earlier this month at the age of 47 following a long battle with cancer.  In a candid interview with Rolling Stone, he said: &amp;quot;My wife is like, &amp;#039;I want to make sure you&amp;#039;re getting it out&amp;#039;. But then I&amp;#039;m walking the dog and I&amp;#039;ll start crying on the street - it&amp;#039;s pretty f**king crazy.&amp;quot; Of the hip-hop icon&amp;#039;s role in the group, Horovitz added: &amp;quot;Yauch was in charge. He was smarter, more organised. In a group of friends, you all come up with stupid s**t to do. But you never do it.  &amp;quot;With Yauch, it got done. He had that extra drive to see things through. We each had our roles. One of his was the make-it-happen person.&amp;quot; Watch the video for classic Beastie Boys track &amp;#039;(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party!)&amp;#039; below:      "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
