This past Friday, four men dressed as Buddhist monks hit NYC’s Union Square with a breakdance routine set to the Beastie Boys’ “Ch-Check It Out.”
The routine was carried out to support and raise awareness of the fan-organized MCA Day, which honors the late Adam “MCA” Yauch, who passed on 4 May in 2012. MCA was a devout buddhist who fought for Tibetan independence among many other humanitarian causes.
Ch-check out the video below.
