Horovitz, in August 1998 on the anti-sexist song "Song for the Man" that he wishes his mother could have heard
"But I think we've all learned a tremendous amount since Licensed to Ill and are all kind of more aware of what we're saying and what we're doing. You might take note of [this] song in which Adam [Horovitz] is going out of his way to talk about men being disrespectful of women." - Adam Yauch, 1998
