Just because the Beastie Boys are finished doesn't mean the guys can't have some fun. Adam "Ad-Rock" Horovitz knows this all too well, because the famed rap pioneer recently took a break from his legal troubles and made an appearance on last night's season finale of Inside Amy Schumer.
Ad-Rock's role on the Comedy Central series was that of a back-up dancer for alt-cabaret singer Bridget Everett's crowd favorite "What I Gotta Do." The musician appears in the original music video, but yesterday's episode included a live performance of the orally obsessed tune. And much to our delight, Horovitz was there in all his glory to do some serious dancing.
The Beastie Boy took to the stage following an introduction from the show's host. Along with Everett and fellow dancer Carmine Covelli, the trio rounded out a segment of the show and delievered a hilarious rendition of the tune along the way. In checking out Ad-Rock's dance steps – which were somehow a combination of both mediocre and well-polished – it's safe to say we're thrilled he's first known for rap.
This isn't the first time Horovitz has collaborated with Everett. He helped the singer out on her debut album, Pound It, which was released just last year.
As mentioned, the other back-up dancer joining Ad-Rock onstage is Carmine Covelli, drummer for Ad-Rock's wife, Kathleen Hanna, and member of Everett's band, the Tender Moments. You can download "What I Gotta Do" on iTunes.
