I got to meet GURU in Portland, OR on the first floor of the Roseland Theatre, he was there for a show with the Roots. I called out to him when I saw him in the dining area, and he came over and asked me my name. One of the times that meeting your hero left me with no disappointments. Just wish I had a camera that day. Always my favorite rapper cuz I know more of your lyrics than any other rappers lyrics/songs.
I met Guru around the time that the "Words I manifest" video was pumping on Video Music Box. We met at the Music Factory Record store in Times Square, NYC. Old school New Yorkers know about this spot. It was the most legendary record store at the time. He was in there with his crew and I gave him a pound and told him how I thought he looked like Malcolm X in the video. The next thing I know, he introduced me to his crew and we're walking down 42nd street just talking like we're old friends. GURU was humble and very down to earth. I'm glad I got to meet him and later see Gang Starr rip shows throughout NYC during the 90s. I got to see them perform DWYCK with Nice and Smooth and bring out MOP to tear the house down. Rest in Peace, GURU.
Gurus my favorite rapper, he was the best aura in hip-hop. Ong. And best rapper with the most heart.
R.I.P Guru.
I'm only 15 and i never had a chance to grow up with oldschool,but I gotta say that when I heard GURU for the first time I got dependent to Oldschool
OMG we almost have the same story, I heard Gang Starr when I was 6 years old, and I got addicted to Gang Starr ever since, even though I didn't know English back then since English is not my native.
One love brother
RIP Guru... Gone too soon

Finally a good tribute to this super influential MC. I'm surprised how little he was mentioned after he died. He deserves more.
that is very true brother!
@@ManoYo maybe that's the way it meant to be, always stay offstream, some get the budgeted "tributes", that were made only for money, like Bieggie had, and some get 600 000 views on yt after 6 years from release
Go listen to the Guru tribute by *Group Home.* It's called *G.U.R.U.*
So true! Only idiots are getting pushed towards the sky... good people stay unknown... what a shitty world...
The mind is a terrible thing to waste, i show love cuz its a terrible thing to hate"-GURU🥺😢🙏 #RESTINPOWER
Damn, this joint touched me like music hasn't in awhile. Hearing GURU's voice over a premier track is like mother's milk feeding the soul
Guru for life
Got my eyes watery. Met him on a 2008 night in September, the odd part was I was seeing a DJ Premier DJ set earlier in the month, walked around Boston in the meantime, picked up a free paper and looked thru it to see any upcoming concerts, saw an ad for "Guru's Jazzmatazz: Tribute to John Coltrane" It felt meant to be, so I felt extremely psyched.
Shook hands with DJ premier that night...weeks later I went to Guru's show at North Eastern University. I stuck around after the show and chatted with him, told him I don't usually feel nervous but I've been a fan since the 90's. I bought his newest Jazzmatazz album directly from him.
I said "I'm gonna feel bad if my cousin see's this because he will be jealous since he likes you too". He said "what's your cousin's name" I said "Anthony" he handed me a free extra copy of his album and said "tell him I said thanks Anthony". It was well over a decade I've wanted to meet him and it was better than what I could have imagined. Just a simple quiet night after the show and a quick conversation which showed his true character and respect towards his fans.
When I heard he passed..I couldn't help but cry a little. I knew and felt we lost someone important, meaningful, respectful, talented, beautiful, and legendary.
At the same time...I also knew we didn't exactly lose Guru, just his presence. His lyrics are eternal as well as his spirit. I believe he is still among us, just in another entity. When it's my time, I hope to bring with me my Moment of Truth, for him to sign it.
That's awesome bro(no sarcasm)
Woaw ... Rip Guru :(
Great story, thanks for sharing. RIP GURU
I've always felt like GURU was our older brother. RIP GURU.
That's kinda how I imagine GURU's behaving.. He will never die , his texts are timeless and once ur into his music ,you're absorbed by his lyrical skills and meaning. R.I.P GURU you will be always the best for me !
Those are definitely not tears building up under my eyelids
Guru such a legend of hip hop culture.
REST IN PEACE GURU!
13 años de su muerte... Descansa en paz GURU!

I met Guru with Premier in 05 in Washington DC, after talking to him and I spit a verse he put on the show that night!!!!!! And I blazed with him and Built after the show and he gave me info to his label at the time.... #RestInPowerGuru
This song STILL makes me cry because it's so BEAUTIFUL and with that shot of Premier at the end.......
Goddamn.
Beautiful song & video... RIP Guru
Seeing Gangstarr live in Toronto was definitely an honor and unforgettable.
I never got to meet GURU, one of my dreams is to meet Preem in person and let him know how much him and GURU improved my life and literally made me a better person.
rest in peace GURU. The architect!
I remember Bahamadia told me once, when she was rollin' around with Guru that he rolled up on this wack MC and said, "You cannot test the lyrical manifestations of the Guru."
Guru 1Love fam

R.I.P.GURU 4EVER
Thank you for letting me listen to this song!❤🩹🤜🤛✌
Thank you Talib Kweli a much respect for this Dedication. R.I.P My favorite raper Keith Elam a.k.a GURU !
This is how Hip Hop culture should have been marketed the whole time. It's all about productions and marketing. But Guru said it the best at the end of this video. Much knowledge and respects.
"More than a decade of hits that'll live forever." - GURU Damn thats so true rip Guru wish i had chance to meet you yr are truly phenomenal!!!!!!
respect from italy....True hip hop on my head...go marco polo gooo r.i.p guru
Real hip hop!!
Sometimes I feel like cats like GURU know me better than my own friends. I feel like I'm alone in this World with so much stress on my mind built up over time I can barely comprehend anything anymore. My family tries their hardest to help me but I'm too stubborn, so music like this and beats by Madlib, J Dilla, Dam-Funk and others literally give me a chance to breathe and forget about the evil ways society has embraced over the last decade and 1/2. The 90's were GOLDEN YEARS.
than you need to listen "moment of truth" ;)
Stay up man
Yep and things got so much worse.
Hope you're good man.
Omg I feel the same, one love brother you can do this!
RIP Guru, my favorite and the best of all time!
