On the Beastie Boy book he and Mike D are supposedly working on:
He's working on a memoir with Mike. Originally, he says, the plan was not to write it all: "My big idea was to have our friends tell the story. And just, you know, we would sort of interject. My best friends have been my best friends since I was a little kid, so they've seen everything. And then we started reading it back, and it was really bad. So I was just like,'Me and Mike need to write it, because, you know—no offense to Morrissey's friends, but you'd rather read what Morrissey is saying than what Morrissey's friends are saying.' "
Amen.
