So I started to think of some of my favorite Gangstarr/Guru joints and TOO MANY popped up. Of course I though of the obvious ones like Mass Appeal , You know my steez, Code of the streets etc. etc. But i thought of a bunch that I don't usually hear people bring up that are my favorites and here they are ....
R.I.P. GURU !
Until the next thought I see ...
Peace, VISUAL
PS. i could have easily put up the entire HARD TO EARN ALBUM up !
Wow. We lost a true legend today. For ME, Guru was a huge inspiration. One of my top 5 and the type of poet and MC that hip hop is missing right now. I hate putting down anything that people like but hip-hop is full of a lot of garbage right now. I know a lot of you say "Hip hop isn't dead" etc. etc. but it is to the masses. When I was in High school Gangstarr had videos on TV. Bet, MTV, the Box etc. played Gangstarr videos. Now, nothing even close to what Guru and Gangstarr did is on TV. It's all crack talk, half naked women and murder and money. Yeah, it's reality but it's not showing us anything else than what we already know. I don't believe music is purely for entertainment.Maybe I'm lame, a nerd, a preacher or crazy but I think music is also made to help people move along, help artist get out a message and it's made to try something new that even if it was done before, it wasn't done by you.
Until the next thought I see ...
Peace, VISUAL
*Below is some music that I want to share with ya'll in honor of GURU and what Gangstarr meant to me*
