R.I.P. Gifted Unlimited Rhymes Universal

The mystery and controversy that surrounded him during his final days are tragic and suspect as hell.

I'm just hoping we dont find out that he signed some shit over to Solar and now he has rights over Gang Starr publishing/logo/music or some shit.

Yes.

Rest Peacefully, GURU. You did your thing.

I'm sorry, but some questionable thoughts are coming to the surface regarding that letter and Solar. I won't say them today. Peace to Keith Elam, thanks for the timeless music.

also, HELLA peace to DJ Premier. :naswtf: is that Gangstarr separation stuff about? Shame.

sadly, rap is still outta control.

thanks for DWYCK and stuff, G
You're in Heaven right now, God.

My Official Guru Statement

I think this cements my belief that Guru was the gay rapper and died of AIDS.

Furthermore, I would like to state that Guru had more to do with THIS statement than that shit Solar wrote.

I also believe Lenny Kravitz is somehow involved.

I used to look up. What a way to go out.

Can't wait 'til Premier speaks on this.

aside from the his actual death , another downside of guru's passing will be facebook updates like this one i just read:

" Rest In Peace "Guru" Your Jazzmatazz Will Live On Forever. Your were the true Gang Starr!!!"

Dude's clearly a homo, but has anyone explained why he had such a pull (nh) over Guru's personal affairs (health, money etc)?

rest in peace Guru

too bad you never made peace with Premier, mabye for a justified reason


Gangstarr had good songs, some of the time but always were "positive"

i wonder if they got any unreleased Guru stuff coming out now soon


My favorite song by Guru was " Watch What You Say".....serious classic

rap with Tupac, Biggie, Freaky Tah, Eazy E, Camu Tao, Big Pun, ODB +
