I met guru once in an alleyway before his concert. I was smoking a joint with my buddy and we see this guy running towards us and recognized him as Guru. We were like “Guru!!”, but he ran past us and my friend yelled “aw Guru show us some love”, and he ran back to us to shake our hands then ran into the venue. Will never forget that! RIP
I met him in the UK, it was really weird. He came to the Gass club but dude was literally on his own. He chilled for a while then left. I think he was doing a concert and was on a random night off. Very humble dude
Back in 2000 I was a doorman at a hotel in SF...He was doing a show in Oakland(jazzmataz album). I pulled him off to the side and gave him a fat nugg that i had stashed in my locker and he was like cool my guy how much i owe you? Of course i'm like, dude that one's on me...immediatley he calls for his guy to go grab me a guru T-shirt and that guy came back with a shirt and concert tix for the next night.. The show was amazing and 20 years later I still have that T-shirt. Love to GURU Rest in Power!!
Couldn’t agree more! I grew up listening to GANG STARR! R. I. P. THE GURU! Dj Premiere keep up the good work man!! Also I grew up listening Big L R. I. P. I saw GANG STARR perform in Vermont in in 2001 at a ski lodge! You guys were doing it for charity I believe! The GURU was nice enough to sign my FULL CLIP: A DECADE IN THE LIFE OF GANG STARR! I’m from the 401 so me and 4 other people drove up there from R. I. Just to see you fellas live!!! I’m now 39 years old and wrote my first lyrics 6 months ago... For good and bad the internet is where it’s at. Fuck the puke music industry!!! Underground rules!!!
I had the privilege to meet the late Guru in the early 2000's at The Jazz Cafe in London. He was a really cool, humble guy and had time to chat. I said 'You're a Legend Guru!' He replied 'Thank you my Brother' and hugged me. - Guru/DJ Premier - Gang Starr = 100% REAL HIP HOP 🔥

@@ps3shakes123 There's a shedload of people that have Nas Illmatic and have never heard of Gangstarr even though Nas literally shouts out DJ Premier from Gang Starr on one of the tracks! Kids today have never heard of Gangstarr I've been stopped by teenagers in the park while blasting Moment Of Truth on my bluetooth speaker on my mountain bike they literally never heard of my favourite hip hop album!...I really felt old!
Motherfuckin Fat Cat Beats out here on that Gang Starr shieeeeeet! Much love to ya'll for bringing those good beats to us. And you really pulled me into the Boom Bap, the beats, beatmaking, emceeing and have provided a lot of material to work with! Even if it's all just for the fun. You know how it be, face it, we all do this for the fun, for our soul and the culture.
Guru, rest in piece my man... You are an eternal rap legend that i hope to be in heaven feeling honored by his fans of Gang Starr like me making honors to this rap legend! 👑1961-2010👑
Thats cause this is objectively rap,and good, where as 99 percent of modern day mainstream mumble rap is garbage also objectively, its the "rap" equivalent of modern art.Its not good and its by design.But there will always be stuf like this to.

In the end, all that really matters is that you know these timeless tracks and they’re in your repertoire. And possibly, one day - if it’s meant to be- you’ll share these songs with your family or friends, and these excellent songs like Souls of Mischief- 93 Til Infinity or 3 6 Mafia - Da Summa will get passed down onto yet another generation

I remember as a kid in the 90s..my dad would be bumping his two 12s and was playing this. Memories...might be the reason why I always have subwoofers in my vehicle . Like father like daughter lol
Seriously under rated!!! Lyrics came direct w that New York accent. Always told a story making you aware. The beats LEGENDARY. Could team up w anyone on a single. GURU R.I.P. ABOVE THE CLOUDS
Quintessential hiphop! This is hiphop in it's purest form, DJ + MC, both on top of their game. We'll never see this again, I can tell you this...RIP Guru
I remember listening to this as a child on tv, before I even knew what rap was, and I loved it, grew up in the skater/mosher/goth era and I'm glad i was a skater as not only did we listen to heavy metal and punk, but also hip hop. RIP Guru

As a pasty white suburban Canadian I've never felt hip hop was for me. Then I started hanging with a guy who made me listen to it. I very much enjoy old school rap with something to say. And Gang Starr is the best of it's time. Second to none.
I'll never forget, how hard it was to get the album in Germany back in '99! As i finally found it, it cost about 60.00 DM (which was 2,5 times more than other albums, cause it was an import) so i went home totally broke, but with a big, stupid smile on my face and Guru on my ears... now 24 years later the track and the whole album didn't get any older! Thanks Guru and R.I.P.
I'm a 55 year old English guy and this is a f ing banger, love mobb deep (especially shook ones pt 2) and all of wu tang clan don't forget krs1 and nas oh n Eric b n rakim.
Also love and respect from Germany. I always loved Guru, DJ Premier and this track and i always will. R.I.P. Guru and Big L. You guys will always be alive and remembered in our hearts, minds and playlists.
Guru And L made some of the best rap songs I ever heard man. I wish I was alive to see L in concert, them bitches looked too crazy. I was never old enough to go see Guru in person before he passed but ever since I heard Moment of Truth, I just knew I wanted to meet the guy in person. Two true M.C's, forever lamented in rap culture, they live on through there art. Rest in paradise Big L and Guru!!
I've had this track on repeat for the past two weeks. Everything just went together so perfectly. Guru's flow was on point, the way he used silence and pauses shows how important it really is to give breath in a verse.
I love all the violent references in the song are not at all references to violence but Guru's lyrical prowess and rap skills. "I can make your head explode just by my lyrical content," hits me every time. Gang Starr, one of the best yet, indeed!
I met guru once in an alleyway before his concert. I was smoking a joint with my buddy and we see this guy running towards us and recognized him as Guru. We were like “Guru!!”, but he ran past us and my friend yelled “aw Guru show us some love”, and he ran back to us to shake our hands then ran into the venue. Will never forget that! RIP

Fatten my plate again, y'all cats know we always play to win
G-A-N-G to the Starr son
Haters took this shit too far son
So that's all for you, I'm wiping out your whole team
I'll splatter your dreams with lyrics to shatter your schemes
The badder you seem, the more lies you tell
The more lies you sell, and by surprise you fell
Into my deathtrap, right into my clutches
Stupid, you know the God must bless every single mic he touches
I've suffered, just so I could return harder
Wanna be the shit starter, fuck around, make you a martyr
I make ya famous, turn around and make ya nameless
Cause you never understood how vital to me this rap game is
Save it and hold that, you catch a hot one
Rhymes chase a fake nigga down soon as I spot one
So if you stand in my way, I'm gonna have to spray
Learn that if you come against me son you're gonna have to pray
Since back in the day I held the weight and kept my head up
They wanna see the God catch an L it's all a set up
I give no man or thing power over me
Why these niggas so jealous and looking sour, over me?
I'm bolder G, I'm like impossible to stop
I'm like that nigga in the ring with you, impossible to drop
I'm like two magazines fully loaded to your one
Plus I ain't gonna quit spitting til you're done
Plus, more than ever I got my whole shit together
More than a decade of hits that'll live forever
Catching rep off my name, you're bound to fry
Know how many niggas that I know is down to die
We never fail, and we ain't never been frail
You niggas talk crime, but you scared of jail
Attacking like a slick Apache, lyrics are trigger happy
Blowing back your wig piece just for the way you're looking at me
Cock back, blaow, I hit you up right now
I don't know why so many of y'all wanna be thugs anyhow
Face the consequence of your childish nonsense
I could make your head explode just by my lyrical content
Get you in my scope and metaphorically snipe ya
I never liked ya, I gas that ass and then ignite ya
The flame thrower, make your peeps afraid to know ya
How many times I told ya, play your position small soldier
My heart is colder, makes me wanna resort to violence
Stop beating me in the head son, nah, I'm not buying it
I'm ready to blast, ready to surpass and harass
I'm ready to flip, yeah I'm ready to dip with all the cash
I hold my chrome steady, with a tight grip
So watch your dome already cause this one might hit

It is one of the greatest hip-hop tracks of all time.
I wasn't really around Big L's time but found him at 19 I'm 31 now It amazes me how many people haven't heard of him One of the best still Top 3
I can't stand to hear how Big L died. Tragic.
@@nickchannel5364 if the allegations are true, that's what you get for identifying targets to a hitman to ice your own gangmates. Even his brother says that's what happened.

many legends from that time but hell yeah !!!! cant forget about dj premier too #theynicelikethat :)
Ima old head 62yrs young; Guru is on my ⛰ Rushmore..... A Lyrical genius in his own right straight to the point 😎 no gimmicks 💯💯
Stay safe brother.. we need real hip hop heads and the underground alive and well.
Step in the arena is timeless
I’m from Scotland and literally just hearing this now, what we have been missing is unreal 🏴❤️
Ain't that the truth I keep my pandora on old school hip hop 🎧🎼🎤🎧
Supremo + guru = Gangstarr,greatest hip hop duo of all times
I remember as a kid in the 90s..my dad would be bumping his two 12s and was playing this. Memories...might be the reason why I always have subwoofers in my vehicle . Like father like daughter lol
0:22 Do you know on which street the building he entered is on? I'm curious about the region
Seriously under rated!!! Lyrics came direct w that New York accent. Always told a story making you aware. The beats LEGENDARY. Could team up w anyone on a single. GURU R.I.P. ABOVE THE CLOUDS
Hip Hop will never be the same. Kids need to know the history of Hip Hop.
Quintessential hiphop! This is hiphop in it's purest form, DJ + MC, both on top of their game. We'll never see this again, I can tell you this...RIP Guru
I grew up on this...YEAH BABY!!!!!
I remember listening to this as a child on tv, before I even knew what rap was, and I loved it, grew up in the skater/mosher/goth era and I'm glad i was a skater as not only did we listen to heavy metal and punk, but also hip hop. RIP Guru
Agreed. I'm guessing you've seen Josh Kalis part in The DC Video. This song is featured in his part and still flows to this day.

“Face the consequence of your childish nonsense I can make head explode just by my lyrical content”
GURU
DEFINITELY TOP 5 RAPPERS ALL-TIME
I never fangirl over anyone but guru he was like what's up wt girl😂😂😂 i love him and will always. We miss you💜
One of the greatest beats of all time.
The third verse goes in so hard🔥🔥. Real hip-hop! Still listening in 2020
This could possibly be one of the top 10 hip hop beats ever
DJ Premier is the reason I started making music thanks to you for everything without you I probably wouldn't have found my purpose in life so soon!
Rest In Peace big l and guru
As a pasty white suburban Canadian I've never felt hip hop was for me. Then I started hanging with a guy who made me listen to it. I very much enjoy old school rap with something to say. And Gang Starr is the best of it's time. Second to none.
As a yellow and pink ghetto kid I think you are swell
I'll never forget, how hard it was to get the album in Germany back in '99! As i finally found it, it cost about 60.00 DM (which was 2,5 times more than other albums, cause it was an import) so i went home totally broke, but with a big, stupid smile on my face and Guru on my ears... now 24 years later the track and the whole album didn't get any older! Thanks Guru and R.I.P.
I miss hip hop like this 😔
I'm a 55 year old English guy and this is a f ing banger, love mobb deep (especially shook ones pt 2) and all of wu tang clan don't forget krs1 and nas oh n Eric b n rakim.
They don’t even mention his name no more and he’s in the hall of fame one of the greatest that ever lived
More than a decade of hits that'll live forever. He wasn't wrong, R.I.P Guru, and thank you.
Gang starr worldwide!! Real hiphop. Appreciated by a 18 yo!
Love from Amsterdam
respect to you youngin'
aye fuck the population and always do you.
Respect from england
Also love and respect from Germany. I always loved Guru, DJ Premier and this track and i always will. R.I.P. Guru and Big L. You guys will always be alive and remembered in our hearts, minds and playlists.
@@Soulfood22 respekt bruder kenne keinen deutschen der old school hip hop, vor allem aus new york feiert big ups✊🏽

The 90’s … how lucky we were to see this. Im so sorry for today’s kids…
Qui dopo Salmo pt2 🌶
GURU was greatly underrated he had some of the illest lyrics R.I.P
Only underrated by those that don't know. The best ever.
Still hard 2024

Guru And L made some of the best rap songs I ever heard man. I wish I was alive to see L in concert, them bitches looked too crazy. I was never old enough to go see Guru in person before he passed but ever since I heard Moment of Truth, I just knew I wanted to meet the guy in person. Two true M.C's, forever lamented in rap culture, they live on through there art. Rest in paradise Big L and Guru!!
“Attacking like a slick Apache, lyrics are trigger happy” one of the hardest starts to a verse
Blowing back ya wig piece just for the way ya lookin at me
Younger peeps don’t understand the significance of Primo with the 3 by 5 disks…… what he was up to. I’m 47, and trust me, it’s legendary
I've had this track on repeat for the past two weeks. Everything just went together so perfectly. Guru's flow was on point, the way he used silence and pauses shows how important it really is to give breath in a verse.
Guru is one of the most underappreciated MCs in hip hop. He was on some 4d chess shit when we were all playing 3d. RIP King.
Every skateboarding video has been made that much better from this track being included
I love all the violent references in the song are not at all references to violence but Guru's lyrical prowess and rap skills. "I can make your head explode just by my lyrical content," hits me every time. Gang Starr, one of the best yet, indeed!
22 years of living and IM JUST NOW HEARING THIS?? bro wtf🤦🏾♂️
