This past weekend the above outline for an MCA/RIP mural arrived on Seventh Street just west of First Avenue.
Back in May, someone vandalized the MCA mural created by @cramcept at this spot.
Adam Yauch, aka MCA of the Beastie Boys, died of cancer on May 4 2012. He was 47.

This is the work of @cramcept,who will be working on the mural this week...

By "someone" I assume you mean some squarehead...
I don't support vandalism by some 'artist' scribbling their tag on someone else's art. Having said that, the Beastie Boys were a mediocre band at best.
Here's an idea:
A graffiti-proof plastic shield.
Re: Graffiti proof
There is a shield covering a Banksy piece on a department store on 79st.
The Beasties were a great band, Paul's Boutique and License to Ill will last forever. Having said that, these murals aren't that good, but they don't deserve being tagged on. I may be wrong, but there is a great mural of the entire group by Orchard st. I think
I think it's time to let this meme expire.
I would LOVE to see Ad Rock & Mike D start a new band together and do their own solo projects for three artists :)
