Into the Future

2012’s Into the Future is Bad Brains ninth studio album, and the first they had made in five years. It is the last record they have recorded.

The album is dedicated to Adam Yauch, also known as MCA of the Beastie Boys. Yauch was a longtime friend of the band, and produced their previous album, Build a Nation. He had died from cancer six months prior to the release of Into the Future. The final song on the album, “MCA Dub” is named for him.
