The idea of a Beastie Boys memoir started with a book deal in 2013. Looks like Mike-D and Ad-Rock are finally close to making it happen. According to The Guardian the book should be out this fall. Sounds like they tried a few different versions of the book before they landed on the form that they feel accurately tells the story of the Beastie Boys.
As for new music, I wouldn’t expect anything. After the loss of MCA in 2012, they effectively said they can’t tour or make new music without him. As awesome as something new might be, I think any Beastie fan would agree.
At least we’ll always have these…
