REMASTERED IN HD! Music video by Gang Starr performing Skills (DVD Edited). #GangStarr #Skills #Remastered #Vevo #HipHop #VevoOfficial #OfficialMusicVideo
To artists, this may no necessarily be a flex. It means they make the same stuff all the time to the point where people hear it over and over with nothing new. Art folk say it to each other as a backhanded compliment.
@@elephantgrass631 I disagree. Preemos beat just really emphasises the lyrics and makes the song just better. Everyone of his beats is unique but he is still recognisable.
Yeah, I think Gangstar got and gets a ton of attention as one of the greatest duos. The only thing I'd say is underrated is that they're not in more Top 5 convos.
nah an example of cats that were slept on is BINARY STAR. GANG STARR were not slept on. Mad reputation. Preemo shares my top spot with RZA and Prince Paul for production
prazertv you know how people look back at old tunes i think wtf why everyone like that shit this stuff dont get old shows its a classic and worth its weight these new poser fake fuckin actors will be laughed at in the future dont worry time cleans peoples souls
Incorrect. I see Guru listed by many people as a great rapper. Also look how many views his videos have. Your statement is incorrect. My guess for the most underrated would be K-Rino. He's been around since early 80s has the most albums in hip hop history, stil drops albums to this day, he's a pioneer, an innovator, master lyricist, versatile, has the strongest work ethic of any rapper PERIOD, longevity, he's a master of punchlines, metaphors, story telling, knowledge, concepts and content and yet hardly anyone knows who he is, if you think Guru is more underrated than K-Rino I suggest gaining some knowledge before making statements as such. Find me a rapper even gets close to the same criteria who is as unknown as K-Rino. You won't find one.
Technically DJ Premier bought him back to life and just dropped an album with Guru... meaning it has some of Guru's voice rappin.... some stuff that he bought from the vault .
Had this crazy dream where I was on the escalator coming up from the subway, in front of me was Guru and 4-5 of his crew, including a kid like 10 years old. Guru’s telling a story, but fully rhyming and flowing. Not performing or freestyling, just like that’s how he always talks in regular conversation. And it is DOPE. Tap the kid on the shoulder and I ask him - “ay yo is he always like this?” Kid just nods.
+Julio Sanchez Fucking bullshit! Only hip-hop heads know gangstarr. Most people have no idea of them. Unless you're kicking it with the right people you're full of shit
Cats don't know because the mass media outlets don't want this type of positive stuff to seep into the minds of those they've already corrupted with bullshit so called music. The industry doesn't care about rhetoric anymore just a quick buck.
@@radzo1675 Ask the Adults. Who were into Hip-Hop during Guru's Era. They know him very well, he wasn't underrated at all. He was the most well-known rapper of East Coast during his time.
Is it okay to actually miss MC Guru? Like to be actually saddened by his passing 7 years ago? It's not even just his amazing music that he put out, but his messages. He taught, expanded, and enhanced the minds that listened to his songs. RIP MC Guru
I feel like an old asshole who grumbles to the younger generation that in our time everything was different, the grass was greener, etc. , but it is undeniable that real rap is dead, it no longer exists, and in order to enjoy the masterpieces of rap music we have to go back to the past.
Yo Major Shout to Guru👑 for Rep'n the 4 Elements of Hip-hop!! (Mc,DJ,B-boys & Graffitti!) A True RAP LEGEND Gone to soon! Rip Guru🙏🏾🕊️🙏🏾🕊️ gone but not forgotten!!
True, but you know why? Because hip hop in the 90's was superb! He wasn't alone, Souls of Mischief were underrated too.That was the golden age , we'll not see that repeat sadly
Have to thank my brother for this one. When I was a kid, I would steal this CD, and wu-tang's Forever and 36 chambers. Stuff that brings back good times.
man i stop watchin gangstarr vids for a few years and ppl are sayin slept on and underrated n shit. man this is a legend and all the legends knew him, bunch of robots.
This is the first international hip hop song i listened on my own, not tv or radio. It was back in 2006 on my cousin's crappy mp3 and even though i didn't understand a single word(as i was just a kid from Romania and my english level was 0 at that time),boy did i fell in love with Ganstarr. It's been 16 years and i still listen to it a lot, plus, this is my ringtone! #ripguru
Hip-hops golden era is the epitome of the phrase “what a time to be alive”. You wouldn’t understand if you didn’t live through it, you REALLY had to be there. Long live Guru, a supreme emcee. I heard “mass appeal” on rap city in the early 90s and never stopped listening to him lol💯🙏🏾
![fellow fellow - วันนี้ พรุ่งนี้ ตลอดไป [LIVE SESSION]](/img/n.gif)
It's amazing how the beat can instantly be recognized as DJ Premier's. The man is a fucking genius.
Gang starr one of.the best
@@howardglasper8349 Agreed
Yea premier has his own watermark on every beat. You can easily recognize a premier beat
To artists, this may no necessarily be a flex. It means they make the same stuff all the time to the point where people hear it over and over with nothing new. Art folk say it to each other as a backhanded compliment.

Still listening in the “2024”
💎“Skills”💎
Rip Guru 👑
Salute 🫡
Gang Starr is one of the most SLEPT ON hip hop groups of all time. They embodied hip hop in everyway.
Real hip hop
How are they slept on, they're one of the most beloved and respected groups in the culture
Yeah, I think Gangstar got and gets a ton of attention as one of the greatest duos. The only thing I'd say is underrated is that they're not in more Top 5 convos.
What!? They are one of thw most respected duos ever how are they slept on
nah an example of cats that were slept on is BINARY STAR. GANG STARR were not slept on. Mad reputation. Preemo shares my top spot with RZA and Prince Paul for production
The Beat, the Flow, the Lyrics still hits.
Hell yea 🔥🔥🔥
TILL THIS DAY🙌🏾✨
I remember buying the CD. I couldn’t stop listening to this. And I still can’t stop. Crazy!!!!
Primo + Guru = Unstoppable
philaman1972 GANGSTARR FOR LIFE
philaman1972 keep them in my CD player
It doeznt get any better than Premo on the brakes and Guru on tha mic. RIP GURU
180th like. Best of the best. OF ALL TIME.
Juggernaut
Back when rappers actually had skills, and they knew how to speak English.
Well they speak fucking French, Arabic and other languages now don't they?
I see your point prazertv but you can still find rappers who know how speak English. Plus their vocabulary is also very good.
ian smith They slurr some southern drawl until the hook comes.
prazertv you know how people look back at old tunes i think wtf why everyone like that shit this stuff dont get old shows its a classic and worth its weight these new poser fake fuckin actors will be laughed at in the future dont worry time cleans peoples souls
Yepz Eminem is wrack now
THE MOST UNDERRATED RAPPER OF ALL TIME, NO DEBATE, RIP GURU 🙏
Truly

@@74red77 exactly
True, him and Kurupt lmfao no?!
A masterpiece still in 2024
RIP Guru, The most talented MC is deeply missed.
I can barely see him in top 10 lyrical rappers this shows that he is underrated!
😥
Juste
Guru is like that uncle in your family that's so cool, you just gravitate towards him cause he always got a story.
For real !!!
Soo smooth would have been on the radio if he wasnt on the radio
it's 2020 and still one of the best song ever recorded.
You're absolutely RIGHT and svaka to Čast
they got Skillz
Bruno Janković what a track indeed
Nejlepší track
Rest In Peace to a real MC ... Guru the best to do it!💯💯🇨🇦🔥🙏
Its crazy how many people come back to this everyday... this song is masterpiece!
it never gets old and it bumps hard
It sure is
🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
From the release, TILL THIS DAY!
DJ premier best producer ever.. insane beats
rey024 agree
Shrapnel no need to think, it’s obvious to all the real Hip Hop heads
Yep premo all day
Top 3 but not first
@@ThaexakaMavro So, who is first for you ?
Maybe Guru is dead but he is always alive in the music
Technically DJ Premier bought him back to life and just dropped an album with Guru... meaning it has some of Guru's voice rappin.... some stuff that he bought from the vault .
Hell yea Primo da man salute!!!!
Yeah!❤️

Guru is in top 5
Skills: something 99% of rappers lack today.
WIN!
raRi could you name some dope underground Emcee's ? :o

Francisco Silva - The Key pro era
got tears in my eyes I miss hip hop it's fucking ruined
John lew Damn you too? 😢😢
;( fucking new hip hop is so trash it sucks
Lucas yup
piles joursh OK guru
Listen to Guts and Ohmega Watts then. Go underground. Or just listen to 90s hip hop there's plenty to listen to.
What weak ass person hit the hate button thumbs down. Gang Starr was one of the pioneers of this whole thing. I guess folks that don't have no SKILLZ.
No mumble, that was real hip hop. 🎉
I am shocked that Gang Starr is not more well known. Not only in the mainstream but even within the hip-hop community. These guys were the best!
+TafTabTah Everyone that's a fan of hiphop knows Gang Starr. Cut that shit out, they're beyond famous.
+Julio Sanchez Fucking bullshit! Only hip-hop heads know gangstarr. Most people have no idea of them. Unless you're kicking it with the right people you're full of shit
they known just not much people appreciate their music .
Those who dont know gangstarr r not hip hop fans...
Cats don't know because the mass media outlets don't want this type of positive stuff to seep into the minds of those they've already corrupted with bullshit so called music. The industry doesn't care about rhetoric anymore just a quick buck.
Rest in Peace to one of the few legends from the golden age of Hip Hop.
Gang Starr one of the best Mc Dj duos in history Rip Guru
The flow in this song from guru is just insane and the beats are amazing
R.I.P ❤️🩹 Guru
Gotta thank my man Janis the blackjack dealer for reminding me about this track.
I know right?!
Congratulations mannn
SAviking HAHAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHhH
true, he got me into being an online BJ dealer myself!
Just came here from that laughing man
Guru & Gang Starr, the definition of skills. RIP Guru.
+Ric Smith you mean Guru and Dj Premier.....not Guru and Gangstarr lol
William Coman
you know what i meant lol
+Ric Smith or just gangstarr
Dynamic duo
Guru was the most intelligent and unique rapper ever in my opinion. Dj premier has no equal and I'm forever grateful for his contribution to hip hop.
This covers the four cornerstones of the culture neatly:
Rapping
DJing
Breaking
Graffiti
All in one video. Thank you Gangstarr
Lol i thought the same
Most underrated MC of all time!! RIP Guru!!
Guru is the realest rapper ever
lol he wasn't underrated.
On my top 5 GURU RIP
@@therecklessengineer5796 To me he is. I rank him 2nd only to Rakim. I have never seen him that high on anyone's list.
@@radzo1675 Ask the Adults. Who were into Hip-Hop during Guru's Era. They know him very well, he wasn't underrated at all. He was the most well-known rapper of East Coast during his time.
OLD SCHOOL BUT STILL AHEAD OF THE GAME TODAY
Andy Johnson 2002 is old school?
Top 3 rap duo of all time :
-Dj premier and guru
-Prodigy and Havoc
-Eric B and Rakim
FRX The Raptor I can dig that. Most definitely
FRX The Raptor we just gonna erase UGK and OutKast hm?
I'd just add Mos Def and Talib for a top 4 lol
@@elyedai agreed black star is defo top 4 and outkast would be top 5 imo.

Word up
Stewbob112 totally normal
he lives on in his music. that is the beauty of music. it conserves a moment in time and the message of the lyrics is universal like his rhymes.
This is Hip Hop at it's purest RIP Guru
Gang Starr is the meaning of Hip Hop , it’s pure essence.
You know what I miss in our new HipHop era? SKILLS !
Best duo of all time. Classic.
What about eric B. and rakim
+Robert Petrie I don't know my man i just love Gang Starr more. Maybe it's about Preemo's beats, maybe about Guru's voice. I don't know, like I said.
I do too
+Robert Petrie Rakim is a better rapper than Guru. But, no one beats Gang Starr..
Rakim si not even close to guru and no comes close to kool Keith.
Who still listening in 2019?
Me bro. :)
Me from spain crying thinkin about this when i was 12
Sup! 😁
I am but this is heavily censored you male groupie bastards
Fuck Yesss! Will ALWAYS be listening 2 this... True hip hop, True music!!!
Real hip-hop
I feel like an old asshole who grumbles to the younger generation that in our time everything was different, the grass was greener, etc. , but it is undeniable that real rap is dead, it no longer exists, and in order to enjoy the masterpieces of rap music we have to go back to the past.
at least you’re self aware
I cant believe i just heard of these guys. Gang starr is amazing
same
Great to see new fans. Been listening to them since 1990 ‘Jazz Thing’. Their music will never grow old as we, ourselves, grow old. RIP Guru 🙏🏾
I'm glad u appreciate the Realness in his music 🙌🏾💥👊🏾💥💯💯 keep Dig'n my friend & check his library u wont be disappointed
The B Boys were dope in this video
2023, Hip Hop Old School ainda vive!!!✊

Back when rappers who couldn’t rap, didn’t rap.
One of my favorite songs by them aha rest in Paradise guru !!
Yo Major Shout to Guru👑 for Rep'n the 4 Elements of Hip-hop!! (Mc,DJ,B-boys & Graffitti!) A True RAP LEGEND Gone to soon! Rip Guru🙏🏾🕊️🙏🏾🕊️ gone but not forgotten!!

Guru and premier are pure Skilllss
with a lil bit of crack ahah
SKILLZ!
Thank you GURU rest in power maestro 🙏🏾🖤🕊️
Guru never lost his flow, as smooth in 2008 as he was in 1991.
We cats from this era...we different. We the real and it will never be duplicated.
Lyrically untouchable, sonically years ahead of there time, rap for the most part has a very clear timeline but this... this is forever timeless
We need a gangstarr movie or show on Hulu rest in peace guru
Man GuRu and Premo hits you different every time🙌🏾
The sample for this beat is amazing, but the way Preemo flipped it and arranged the drums is just beyond words. Absolute masterpiece.
I liked this song at least 16,000 times. This beat is fiya and of course those skills.
Alan Cardoso Sampled Rapper Dapper Snapper
GURU stands for Gifted Unlimited Rhymns Universal. It was 2022 that I learned this and I am not ashamed. Long live Gang Starr!!!!
Never be another DJ premiere
And this was 2003 and Guru & Premier still kept it 93 here...Loved this entire album when it first came out to present day...F*cking quality!....
Now it 2023 still got the skills
GANG STARR HAS TO BE REMEMBERED AS ONE OF RAP'S GREATEST PERFORMERS.
i can only imagine how hard it Primo when Guru passed. damn. much love Primo! thank you for blessing us with the most high!. RIP
The tittle is what’s missing these days. Rip 🪦 guru
A lot of MC's has rapped over Premo's beats and still till this day 629/19 no body has done it like Guru!!! Rest in Power!!!! Long live Gang Starr
Nas, Rakim, KRS One, Biggie just to name a few are up there.
IMO jeru+premo was a match made in heaven than guru+ premo
The bassline is super crazy!!
Real Hip Hop...
This is the only thing I jam to! Rappers now and days don't have nothing to talk about but trash!
Trash is right. No originality, no skill, no talent, no anything. Pure crap 💩
This is real hip-hop. 💯

"slide off kid and let a grown man finesse it"
Have to thank my brother for this one. When I was a kid, I would steal this CD, and wu-tang's Forever and 36 chambers. Stuff that brings back good times.
I could listen to this track on a 10 hour loop and press play again.
True That
Best duo in hip-hop history. Period.
THIS IS REAL HIP-HOP THIS IS THAT SKILLLZZZZZZ FOR REAL R.I.P. GURU!!!!
Holy shit, Guru is the greatest, most talented rapper for ever and ever
