Thank you. clapping I wish people would not make assumptions about his sexual orientation, even *if* he was gay, that's no one's business. ANyway, I can't believe this shit. bawl cry He was one of my favorite rappers, he was so awesome with Premo, they made wonderful songs together, especially "Full Clip", "It's a Jazz Thing", "Words that I Manifest", "Mass Appeal", etc. RIP Guru!!!!!


Whoever said if OR when Guru's sexual activities were anyone's business?!? rolleyes

OFF-TOPIC: And BTW, you and SCNDLS have been members of the org long enough to know that there have been previous threads about some rap artists being a bunch of sexual hypocrites for every time they're gay-bashing people through their music, knowing that they themselves might also have something to hide (like Ma$e being a tranny-hunter for example).

Don't get it twisted. No one (especially myself) is accusing Guru of anything wrong. I'm just letting the both of you know that we're are living in a time when there is too much fakeness in the entertainment industry and we should maintain the right to speak out against fakeness within proper context whenever necessary.

I was sad to hear about Guru's passing. And now? ALL THIS DRAMA! I haven't even begun to read through this to find out what it's all about, I'm just sad that I just lost another of my musical hero's. May he be resting peacefully rose .

[edited to add this]:

Okay, just read what the drama is about. All I can say is: I hope Guru had a lawyer and a will, cause it seems to me Solar may be taking some liberties. rolleyes That was an awfully clear-thinking and coherently written letter for someone that was supposed to be in a coma.

Well, in fairness, with a goodbye letter like that, I think the reactions are somewhat understandable.

At the end of the day, if he didn't have a will his assets will have to go through probate no? Even if Solar is named fiduciary or executor he will still be held accountable by the court. So nasty letter or not the family still can gain control of his assets and such. If that is their concern.

I'm sure they are so hurt by the loss and not being able to see him at the end. It's just so sad a man so young and talented was taken from us. sad

DJ Doo Wop Remembers Guru The Father, Last Tour

For 15 years, Doo Wop worked alongside Guru as a tour deejay and collaborator. The mixtape legend appeared on Guru's Version 7.0: The Street Scriptures album, making a sequel to the Gang Starr classic "Step Into The Arena." In the wake of this morning's tragic announcement of Guru's death, HipHopDX approach Doo Wop to reflect on his friend and peer.

Doo Wop revealed that Guru was aware of his cancer as of last year, a diagnosis he kept private from the fans. "In mid-2009, Guru called me to discuss something about an upcoming Japan tour and to also tell me that he's gonna pass by my crib after a doctor's appontment he had scheduled due to some back pain he was having," remembered Doo Wop. "Next thing I know, he calls me and I could tell he was obviously in tears, then he says the doctor told him he has cancer."

The 95 Live maker continued, speaking on his relationship with the Boston-born emcee. "[Guru] wasn't just someone I recently met and worked with for a brief period. No, this was my friend of over 15 years, someone I toured over 33 countries with. Sometimes my phone would ring and my Caller ID said 'Guru cell,' I'll pick up and he'll say, 'Peace. Hold on,' then I'd hear him giving the phone to his son while saying, 'Here, it's uncle Doo Wop.'" The personal relationship extended to Guru's son, named K.C. "His son would tell me everything they did or were about to do that day. As busy as Guru was, he did what a great father is supposed to do and that was to make sure his son didn't grow up wondering why his dad doesn't make time for him."

While Guru's cancer diagnosis was kept private even in the wake of February's heart attack news, Doo Wop was able to reveal the Gang Starr emcee's reaction to the news. "The day he found out he had cancer, all he kept saying was how he gotta beat this because his little man needs him. I toured with Guru from 2005 [through] November, 2009. He wasn't feeling well on that last tour we did together, but pushed himself to stick it out."

Doo Wop also added that an incident prevented the longtime friends from speaking more recently. "During that tour, one of Guru's people's and I had an altercation that was long coming. That happened right in the middle of the tour, and the rest of the tour was so uncomfortable due to this issue." Doo Wop did not specify who he had the altercation with. "I told myself, 'This is my last tour, I'm done.' My mind was made up 100%. When we got back from that tour, we landed at JFK [Airport] and all rode back together." The bittersweet moment would prove to be significant to Doo Wop, especially today. "I was the first one to be dropped off. As I was exiting the car, I knew that the altercation which occurred would end up in me no longer being his tour deejay, but I had no idea that would be the last time I would ever see my friend."

HipHopDX extends condolences and sympathies to the son of one of our staff's most-respected emcees, the Elam family, Solar, DJ Premier and fans.
