R.I.P. Keith Elam Aka Guru
I'm sorry to say that Guru passed away on one of my favorite days of the year. To all you weed smokers out there, roll a blunt for the homie Guru. Lets get high.
Guru’s letter Guru's last letterns.
I, Guru, am writing this letter to my fans, friends and loved ones around the world. I have had a long battle with cancer and have succumbed to the disease. I have suffered with this illness for over a year. I have exhausted all medical options.
I have a non-profit organization called Each One Counts dedicated to carrying on my charitable work on behalf of abused and disadvantaged children from around the world and also to educate and research a cure for this terrible disease that took my life. I write this with tears in my eyes, not of sorrow but of joy for what a wonderful life I have enjoyed and how many great people I have had the pleasure of meeting.
My loyal best friend, partner and brother, Solar, has been at my side through it all and has been made my health proxy by myself on all matters relating to myself. He has been with me by my side on my many hospital stays, operations, doctors visits and stayed with me at my home and cared for me when I could not care for myself. Solar and his family is my family and I love them dearly and I expect my family, friends, and fans to respect that, regardless to anybody’s feelings on the matter. It is my wish that counts. This being said I am survived by the love of my life, my sun KC, who I trust will be looked after by Solar and his family as their own. Any awards or tributes should be accepted, organized approved by Solar on behalf myself and my son until he is of age to except on his own.
I do not wish my ex-DJ to have anything to do with my name likeness, events tributes etc. connected in anyway to my situation including any use of my name or circumstance for any reason and I have instructed my lawyers to enforce this. I had nothing to do with him in life for over 7 years and want nothing to do with him in death. Solar has my life story and is well informed on my family situation, as well as the real reason for separating from my ex-DJ. As the sole founder of GangStarr, I am very proud of what GangStarr has meant to the music world and fans. I equally am proud of my Jazzmatazz series and as the father of Hip-Hop/Jazz. I am most proud of my leadership and pioneering efforts on Jazzmatazz 4 for reinvigorating the Hip-Hop/Jazz genre in a time when music quality has reached an all time low. Solar and I have toured in places that I have never been before with GangStarr or Jazzmatatazz and we gained a reputation for being the best on the planet at Hip-Hop/Jazz, as well as the biggest and most influential Hip-Hop/Jazz record with Jazzmatazz 4 of the decade to now. The work I have done with Solar represents a legacy far beyond its time. And we as a team were not afraid to push the envelope. To me this is what true artists do! As men of honor we stood tall in the face of small mindedness, greed, and ignorance. As we fought for music and integrity at the cost of not earning millions and for this I will always be happy and proud, and would like to thank the million fans who have seen us perform over the years from all over the world. The work I have done with Solar represents a legacy far beyond its time and is my most creative and experimental to date. I hope that our music will receive the attention it deserves as it is some of the best work I have done and represents some of the best years of my life.
Did Solar write that or Guru?

No Country For Old Men: Ice Cube Vs. New West
“Things just ain’t the same for gangstas / Times is changing, young niggas is aging / Becoming old G’s in the game and changing,” rapped Dr. Dre on the unknowingly prophetic “The Watcher.”
Wise words from an aged, wise man. Old gangstas are in a tight position, regardless of whether or not their importance to the game is maximal. Consumerist attention spans have been cut short by the broadband pace of the digital world, and pretty much any artist these days can carve a name for themselves by over-saturating the market and shoving their music down the public’s throats - even if their product is inferior.
Like any fish hungry for a bite, a few “new” west coast rappers took the bait. Whether it was for their own publicity or to actually fire back, the new kids weren’t happy. Jay Rock took it to the populist-CNN (a/k/a Twitter) to air his grievances about Ice Cube flaming the next generation. “WATTS UP WIT ICE CUBE TALKIN KRAZY ABOUT NEW WEST NIGGAS,” he tweeted. “IF HE GOT A PROB WIT 1 OF US HE SHUD SAY R NAME N STOP BN SCARED 2 CALL A NIGGA OUT. […] ON SOME REAL STUFF I AINT NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH CUBE OR NONE OF THE OG NIGGAS. BUT IF HE SAY NEW WEST IM APART OF THAT[.] TO ME HE TALKIN BOUT ALL OF US IF HE DIDNT SAY A NAME. THATS HOW THE WEST GOT FUCKED UP IN THE FIRST PLACE.”
Nipsey Hussle had some words to share, too. “I talked to Ice Cube personally at the BET Awards. He said, 'I got 16 [bars] for you when you're ready,' so I figured it wasn't directed toward me,” he said in an interview with Hip Hop Beef. “But if a nigga thought it was, guess they were supposed to do what Jay Rock did, speak his mind and do what men do and get it off they chest."

Much love to the new west artists and the OG's.
