‘Just To Get A Rep’
‘Check The Technique’
‘Who’s Gonna Take The Weight?’
All you need to know about Guru from Gangstarr is that one night at Mars nightclub during a TRIP party a brawl breaks out in the rap room and Guru grabbed the mic to settle people down. He had an unmistakable voice that was raspy and rough. He instantly garnered the respect of an OG with his voice and his rhymes. The fact that his rhymes were about the truth is why he is a legend.
Gangstarr is iconic Hip-Hop because they represent the powerful sounds of the voice and the drum. Just like the Roots are at the essence of everything simply Black Thought and ?uestlove, Gangstarr was Guru and Premier.
God bless Guru’s soul and give peace to his Gangstarr family.
Everytime I hear this song I will have to spit Guru’s verse.
