  • guru is the best rapper in usa! repect from chileee!!

  • I meant "u"

  • @fatcuntist not true I clearly have never looked at dangelo how does it feel video. Lol I know he shot it n his basement n one take

  • Love it!

  • why dislike this? did these people actually hear this on youtube for the first time??? shakin my head. rip guru...

  • I can't believe this brother has transcended to the afterlife so soon but his music will live on for future generations.

  • In 1997 at JFK airport i saw GURU traveling alone on AMERICAN AIRLINES going to cali,we talked about our video shoot with MAMA MYSTIQUE,I feel GURU was a nice polite man,But an underrated rapper he was not exposed like rapper LL COOL J,Maybe it was his mangement,LL cool J was rolling with RIK RUBEN whick led him to DEF JAM,Alot of artist have wack managers,and they dont know how to promote their artist,or they just lazy,i been in this game since 1992,maybe earlier,i have seen some wack moves.

  • I met the GURU in 1997,we did a music video together called "UNSTOPPABLE" by MAMA MYSTIQUE Featuring the LOX,In the video i'm wearing a black leather vest with black pants and a white blouse,My hair in flat twists with Shirley Temple curls,I have on Burgundy Lipstick,I'm dancing in the club,Holding onto a stripper pole,in this video is my friend Alieen from show MTV THE GRIND,she is the redhead chick,Both chicks in this video are MTV THE GRIND DANCERS,as well as myself,I saw GURU at JFK in 1997.

  • This is my absolute fave version of this song =) R.I.P. Guru...

  • 6 people don't recognize good ass real talk music.

  • RIP Bro

  • will never forget dancing to this song at a house party in Boston USA just after camp, I remember that I was in a row with my girlfriend at the time but i heard this and it just made me want to dance

  • That has to be the rest of The Brand New Heavies playing in the background, sounds exactly like them, nice sound despite the audio quality! Jazzy Hip-Hop's my favourite!

  • Was Solar & Guru lovers? There are alot of ppl that think they were. The way Solar had power of attorney over him & his family couldn't do n e thing. Where was his wife & kids @ when all this played out. & then u got rapper Jacky Jasper claims to have the real story behind Guru & Solar's partnership. He claims that Solar was Guru abusive lover. WoW!!!!! I never seen this one coming. Don't get mad utuberz I'm only questioning the situation & want 2 know wut other ppl think.

  • @lalayinise Thats bullshit.. there is no way that Guru was gay

  • @freeline1996 OK I don't know thats y I decided 2 ask the question. He was still a good rapper no matter what.

  • Comment removed

  • @lalayinise solar prevented keith's family from seeing him, guru had no control over anything he was in a coma

  • @lalayinise Ive read something about solar being abusive to guru, and despite of this guru supposedly called him god. However i have also seen a coversation solar had with a women who he believed was intrested in him. it was actually a reporter. he sent her a picture of his cock..it was tiny. So yeah if solar wasnt gay i really doubt guru is. I would doubt it if he was! so many song inculding this one about is love for pusssaaaay. anywayz its guru, if he was gay who gives a fuck!?

    peace

  • @AshleyPearce123 No it doesn't matter if they were lovers or not. I was reading stories that was surfacing after his death. Including the ones from his family & how Solar was tripping about letting them see him. From what I had read it sounded like more was going on. I wrote this comment because I wanted someone (like you) to comment on what they heard or knew about the situation.

  • does anyone know the remix of this great song? it was a different version and wow was it amazing ! this version is also great of course but i wonder were the other one is? i heard it only once on the radio back in summer of 1993.

  • @RavishingRedheadd Maybe you re talking about the version which is on the album, check it out

  • @aurels11 any suggestion were i can check out the songs on the album online? please let me know thanks.

  • Why does this video say RIP, I got some of Guru's albums and singles on vinyl...... has he passed away?

  • r. i. p. gangstar

  • Whats sad is that MTV, BET, and VH1 will likely only give his passing 30seconds of memory today. And fill the difference with Poopin' bottles, ice, 16 yo prego girls and BS reality tv.

    Peace Guru-- Smart people with good taste will never forget you

  • @instupitious real talk!

  • From amsterdam: from mtv i already expected! that but BET and VH1 that i dont/cant watch here regulary Really really disapoints me.

    Another legend gone RIP GURU

  • @instupitious Unfortunately...genius in the US music industry only is measured in platinum sales or bought-out awards (IMO)...only years later when people realize who were the true innovators of music were/are...Guru was one of those-at least we can stand here and say that we knew greatness when we hear/see it!

    Peace 2 U-Guru....U will be missed but not your music!

  • much vibe in canada played a full hour of guru and gangstarr yesterday

  • @instupitious - You are so right. Sadly, Guru was not "relevant" to mainstream media. He wasn't locked up in jail, he wasn't ambushed in a drive-by shooting, the IRS wasn't on his ass, he didn't have 'beef" with other artists, and he wasn't in and out of court with multiple paternity cases. Further proof that the music industry and the media are FULL OF IT!

  • @feistychick70 theres the conspiracy that the illuminati tries doin those things to ppl glad he wasnt one

  • @feistychick70 good point!!!

  • @feistychick70 Eminem hasn't been locked up, hit up, or have teh IRS on his ass, and no real beefs to speak of.

  • @Creixhitme - You are right about Eminem. However, Eminem has had a great deal of controversy and drama in his personal life as well as in his career... Drama with his wife/ex-wife, his mother, heat from the gay community, heat from feminist organizations, you name it. Eminem is by society's and the media's standards "relevant" and "news worthy"...

  • @feistychick70 This is true but most people who listen to him don't even know about that. They just listen to his music. It's the adults who probably know about that. But even still there are rappers who are just chill without gang life and crime ridden backrounds. Andre 3000 for example.

  • @feistychick70 yeah its s ahme GURU isn't around.he was the best.loved his tunes.this music is amazing one of a kind ill never forget!

  • @feistychick70 PEACE MY BROTHER. WELL SAID

  • @STARRBUCK1973 - Thanks for the feedback. BTW, I am not a "brother"... LOL

  • @feistychick70 FROM ANOTHER BROTHER..SORRY..PEACE!!

    

  • @feistychick70 I agree 100% the industry is some bullllllshittttt

  • @feistychick70 agreed!! hes my inspiration not onli in rap but in lyfe he was a very good man as well.thas why hes chilln Above The clouds!!

  • @instupitious That is exactly what they did
