Thats what I mean, it reads like a press release for an upcoming greatest hits.

Anyone know why?

The letter seems to overdo it a bit on Jazzmatazz 4 - it wasnt exactly the peak of his career or discog!

RIP Guru.
don't quote me on this but supposedly Premo said something to the effect of "Bruce Willis gets more props than Guru"

RIP Guru....a fuckin icon in the scene.

and fuck Solar. part of that issue is that Solar was denying Guru's family visits while he was in the hospital.

WTF?! He's dead? I only checked a couple of days ago to see if there were any updates after his coma and they were all saying he was making a recovery.

Yeah it really don't believe that Guru would use his last statement to disrespect anyone. Also far as Premier not being a founding member, who's heard any of the tracks done before he joined?

But it seems to be Guru holding some deep seated grudge rather than a he said/she said. And there is mad rumour around the net abt Solar and his exact relationship with Guru...

Plsu is every interview since Gangstarr split, no-one is allowed ask about Gangstarr or Primo!? I hope the truth comes out in order to protect his legacy and name.

The fact he calls himself "Superproducer" says it all really.

not tryna muddy the memory of Guru or go off-topic but nearly every story refers to Solar as best friend, producer andpartner... Was there something else going on there or am i just being paranoid?

From what i've heard that letter emanates from Europe and is a load of bull. Internet scam business.



What Groucho said -

Salutations to the Jazz poet. Thanks for the words and the music.
