RIP Guru

2 years ago we lost one of the greatest emcees whoever touched the mic, G.ifted U.limited R.hymes U.niversal aka Guru founding member of the hip hop group Gangstarr and founder of Gangstarr Foundation, His delivery was monotone, and his voice would draw you in as he would lock on to that Primo beat. I have all the Gangstarr catalog and his solo projects Baldhead slick & Jazzmatazz.                                                                                                   


"RIP GURU"
