Gangstar is composed of Guru, the MC, and DJ Premier who produced the tracks. Guru is from Boston. Premier is from Texas. They both met in New York and formed Gangstar. Gangstar has a song with Jadakiss called RIGHT WHERE U STAND.
@DexTVReacts Correct. Premo produces tracks for many artists. That may have been the crux of the problem the group had which led to a split. Premo produced a Christina Aguilera song, Ten Crack Commandments & Unbelievable for Biggie just to name a few.
Gangstar joint with he violins " like making love I'll never stop thrusting" "Stick up kids is out to tax" Ex girl to he next girl... Gangstar is classic, underrated.
You might be shocked at how many phenomenal tracks in Hip Hop that Premier has produced, for Biggie, Nas, hundreds of others, he was probably the best producer in Hip Hop history, or almost certainly top 2-3
Gangstarr is the hardest group that goes unsung. Listen to the whole Moment of Truth Album from 1998 that shit will change your life. That is literally a perfect album.
Yo Dex! Gang Starr is GURU ( Gifted Underground Rhymes Universal) and DJ Premier. "Just to Get a Rep" "The Place Where we Dwell" "Take it Personal" "Mass Appeal" ""Speak Ya Clout" and the list goes on. DJ Premier has so many classic cuts and switch ups as you've already jeard some of them. GURU did three solo Jazzmatazz albums. When they got back together 5 yrs later, they sounded exactly the same. A testament to their formula...
Krumbsnatcha "Closer to God" produced by DJ Premier. "Make em Pay", "Above the Clouds " , "Just to Get a Rep", "Come Clean " by Jeru the Damaja all produced by DJ Premier 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Gang Starr Is A Major 🎤 🐐💯!!💯 I'm From Tha South Texas And I Was Raised In The 90's And GangStarr Was Just As Underground In NY As DJ Screw In Texas But Was Bumped Just As Much As West Coast Was Back Then! FACT'S 💯
Once you get into Gang Starr’s catalog you’ll love what an amazing duo they were. As he said in the song Guru is “one of the best yet” He’s in my top 5
GangStarr, one of my favorite groups. RIPOWER GURU...If u fux with HIPHOP, u will rock with GangStarr. Purest of the pure, DOPE BEATS & RHYMES. Dig into their catalog 👑. Dope reaction🫡
Yo Dex, going down the Gangstarr rabbit hole is gonna be a treat if you go that route! Premo was from Houston and Guru was from Boston and met in ny all while helping shape new york's in the late 80s and 90s! Premier is my favorite beat producer ever! Salute from Brooklyn, bro!💯💯💯💯💯💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽 best reactor on youtube right now!!!
DJ Premier (Primo) has produced TONS of tracks for all kinds of peeps. Check his catalog. He still rocks the production and cut skills. Gangstarr is one of my all-time fave groups. Guru has his own style - smooth but hard - but adds that lyrical originality. Primo balances it out with the dope beats and cuts. And they have a bit of jazz edge to them - Primo has sampled some jazz greats to add to the mix. It was because of Gangstarr that I got into jazz... RIP GURU
That's DJ Premiere (Primo)he's a legendary DJ / Producer (You should also pay attention to the production of all the songs you react to Producers and DJ's need their shine too)and the guy spitting is The Guru...together they form Gangstarr
Gangstar Foundation - Group Home, Jeru da Damaja, Big Shug, Freddie Foxx, MOP. Check out Jeru -“Come Clean” that first Jeru album is a classic “The Sun Rises in the East”
Bout time you found gang star. Find those sole joints. I could be wrong but I think Primo did all his beats. He's from Boston BTW, had to go to NY to get his stuff out there
Gangstarr - Mass Appeal Gangstarr - Who’s Gonna Take The Weight Gangstarr - I Manifest Jeru Da Damaja - Come Clean (it’s produced by DJ Premier) ✌🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
A lot of material from this duo: I would suggest your next listen be Just to Get a Rep from their 2nd album Step In the Arena, which was their breakout. The sing has an ill beat and tragic, all too familiar story.

Got cha! I knew I heard that sound before! So Dj Premier is the same guy that made Mathematics for Mos Def right?
You forgot Big Suge Jeru and Group Home

Their song "The Malitia" is a hit.

My fav Gangstar track is Solioquy of Chaos. Also most overlooked track that nobody ever mentions is a B side "? Remainz"
this song was in so many skateboard edits in the early 2000s
DJ Premier (Primo) has produced TONS of tracks for all kinds of peeps. Check his catalog. He still rocks the production and cut skills.
Gangstarr is one of my all-time fave groups. Guru has his own style - smooth but hard - but adds that lyrical originality. Primo balances it out with the dope beats and cuts. And they have a bit of jazz edge to them - Primo has sampled some jazz greats to add to the mix. It was because of Gangstarr that I got into jazz...
RIP GURU
CLASSIC!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Guru and Dj Premier the greatest hip hop producer
You'll love Ganstar they do your type a hip-hop. Same "real" energy like Pac. Effortless bars hitting directly with clarity.

Mass Appeal is Preemo's excellence on display
