Temat: Amerykanski rap - rozmowy ogolne

It's all about weed, stacks, and guns
Deep raps and guns
Everything always lead back to guns
Niggaz talk hip hop all the time
Throw a clip in they glock
And make ya hip hop with the nine

fuck a drive-by drive by me and imma pop at ya car

A tech nine is my utensil
Fillin' niggas with so much led they can use they dick for a pencil

im so ahead of my time my parents havent met yet

Fuckin punk, you ain't a leader, what?
Nobody followed you
You was never shit, your mother shoulda swallowed you

My beat get messy as abortion on the ninth month

Fuck 22's, I'll put you in a wheelchair, you'll be on 38'

I'll show you more blind rage than Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles wrestling in a steel cage

I'm not a hip hop nigga, don't confuse me wit them
Truest at the beginning, and truer when it's do to your end

so if your message ain't shit, fuck the records you sold
cuz if you go platinum, it's got nothing to do with luck
it just means that a million people are stupid as fuck

Seems like you cant sing or rap these days
Without Autotune in the back these days
Well fuck that! I got somethin to say
With brown blunts, green weed and the smoke is grey
The best to do it was Roger Troutman
Nah shorty, T-Pain didn't come out then!

Remember Youngstas? Now we got Yungstar
Too young to buy a drink, drive they own car

Ale od Siagona, to po mordzie dostał na własnym koncercie. ; dd

I'm only nineteen but my mind is old

Without HIV I'm positive, you don't wanna test, I leave rappers confused like homeless cats on house arrest

A burglary is a jook, a woof's a crook
Mobb Deep already explained the meanin' of shook

Dead in the middle of Little Italy little did we know
that we riddled some middleman who didn't do diddily

tam jest "my mind is older"

I'm only nineteen but my mind is old
and when the things get for real my warm heart turns cold

Jak wiadomo ludziom zainteresowanym albo nie wiadomo, Guru na przełomie lutego i marca zapadł w śpiączkę po ataku serca, gdzie trafił do Nowojorskiego szpitala. Pojawiały się informacje na temat jego stanu, że się polepszyło, przeszedł operację itd. Potem przeczytałem, że te info, który niby zamieścił DJ Premier, nie było autentyczne. W każdym razie o to, co napłynęło od Premiera jest potwierdzone:

DJ Premier has announced that Guru, his partner in Gang Starr, has finally lost his battle with cancer. The rapper suffered a heart attack in March and went into a coma, although details have been sketchy since. He was 43.

Zmarł 19 kwetnia. Smutma sprawa szczególnie, że Guru zawsze był jednym z moich ulubionych raperów. Lubiłem go słuchać zarówno na solówkach jak i w Gangstarr, którego posiadam ,,Moment Of Truth” na oryginale. Był dla mnie znakomitym artystą, którego muzyka zawsze niosła ze sobą wartość. Ostatnim jego dziełem jest płyta ,,Guru 8.0: Lost and Found” z zeszłego roku, którą uważam za wartościową (pomijając obecność autotune’a), szczególnie treściowo.

Wielka szkoda, że odszedł, bo po cichu liczyłem na reaktywację Gangstarr i połączenie sił z Premierem, mimo iż ich stosunki ostatnimi czasy nie były najlepsze. Oto list, który napisał podczas pobytu w szpitalu, w którym mówił o swojej chorobie, zwraca się do fanów, słuchaczy i mówi o Premierze:

I, Guru, am writing this letter to my fans, friends and loved ones around the world. I have had a long battle with cancer and have succumbed to the disease. I have suffered with this illness for over a year. I have exhausted all medical options.

I have a non-profit organization called Each One Counts dedicated to carrying on my charitable work on behalf of abused and disadvantaged children from around the world and also to educate and research a cure for this terrible disease that took my life. I write this with tears in my eyes, not of sorrow but of joy for what a wonderful life I have enjoyed and how many great people I have had the pleasure of meeting.

My loyal best friend, partner and brother, Solar, has been at my side through it all and has been made my health proxy by myself on all matters relating to myself. He has been with me by my side on my many hospital stays, operations, doctors visits and stayed with me at my home and cared for me when I could not care for myself. Solar and his family is my family and I love them dearly and I expect my family, friends, and fans to respect that, regardless to anybody’s feelings on the matter. It is my wish that counts. This being said I am survived by the love of my life, my sun KC, who I trust will be looked after by Solar and his family as their own. Any awards or tributes should be accepted, organized approved by Solar on behalf myself and my son until he is of age to except on his own.

I do not wish my ex-DJ to have anything to do with my name likeness, events tributes etc. connected in anyway to my situation including any use of my name or circumstance for any reason and I have instructed my lawyers to enforce this. I had nothing to do with him in life for over 7 years and want nothing to do with him in death. Solar has my life story and is well informed on my family situation, as well as the real reason for separating from my ex-DJ. As the sole founder of GangStarr, I am very proud of what GangStarr has meant to the music world and fans. I equally am proud of my Jazzmatazz series and as the father of Hip-Hop/Jazz. I am most proud of my leadership and pioneering efforts on Jazzmatazz 4 for reinvigorating the Hip-Hop/Jazz genre in a time when music quality has reached an all time low. Solar and I have toured in places that I have never been before with GangStarr or Jazzmatatazz and we gained a reputation for being the best on the planet at Hip-Hop/Jazz, as well as the biggest and most influential Hip-Hop/Jazz record with Jazzmatazz 4 of the decade to now. The work I have done with Solar represents a legacy far beyond its time. And we as a team were not afraid to push the envelope. To me this is what true artists do! As men of honor we stood tall in the face of small mindedness, greed, and ignorance. As we fought for music and integrity at the cost of not earning millions and for this I will always be happy and proud, and would like to thank the million fans who have seen us perform over the years from all over the world. The work I have done with Solar represents a legacy far beyond its time and is my most creative and experimental to date. I hope that our music will receive the attention it deserves as it is some of the best work I have done and represents some of the best years of my life.

How many y'all got criminal minded you you you y'all don't be blinded
