trill Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 Solar and MC Solaar are two different people, just to clarify Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handsofdoom Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 you know this fucking Solaar guy is really annoying, and they keep using the word "partner" apparently neither one is/was married and im reading reports that guru and solaar may have been homosexuals. and perhaps the cancer was not cancer at all, but rather aids. there is no actual documentation of cancerous blood cells on file for him, but there was an hiv text taken 6 years ago with no public results made. may be a case of respect overshadowing gay, and his homies around him kept it a secret. daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn WHUDDA FUCK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

!@#$% Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 and the fighting begins....... The statement reads on, “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.” .............................. This letter is way outta hand Solar. Why the fuck did nobody stopped that dude??? I’m stuck with mix feelings, sorry. I can’t accept this. R.I.P. Guru, play his songs!! He will be remembered for ever and ever!! read it all :( http://www.djpremierblog.com/2010/04/20/guru-passed-away-after-hard-battle-r-i-p/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightmareOnElmStreet Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 you know this fucking Solaar guy is really annoying, and they keep using the word "partner" apparently neither one is/was married and im reading reports that guru and solaar may have been homosexuals. and perhaps the cancer was not cancer at all, but rather aids. there is no actual documentation of cancerous blood cells on file for him, but there was an hiv text taken 6 years ago with no public results made. may be a case of respect overshadowing gay, and his homies around him kept it a secret. co-signed. i've been completely out of the hip hop loop for a good 7 years now, and never even hearda dude solar and i don't really give a fuck. Guru is responsible for putting me on to an entire plethora of music(underground) that i might have never gotten into. i can't believe this shit though. terrible fucking news. first caught wind this morning while driving and had to pull over straight up.

CityonSMASH Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 actually oddly enough, the jazzmatazz song i posted last page was on heavy rotation for me cause of a slam city jam up here's section in 411. that song was used. definate nostalgia. re-post: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgxELG52aFk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheoHuxtable.. Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 If this Solar guy faked this letter or coerced Guru to write that type of letter, that's really low. Seemed like the family couldn't even visit Guru in the hospital due to Solar restricting them. I don't see how that helps anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alloverthetown Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 I honestly think Guru didn't write that shit, It was Solar... when you're dying, why go out of your way to create hate... usually people try to make peace before they pass on, especially when it's expected.... Guru, no matter what, mad respect and love for him, but Gangstarr is what it is because of they duo they formed... real sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CityonSMASH Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 i read that it could possibly be due to the fact solar did not want stories of his sexual orientation let out. it wrote that guru was potentially ready to "come out" knowing he was very sick and could pass at any day, he wanted to come clean. solar didnt. theres gays, and then there are fags. guru was (allegadly) a gay, solar on the other hand. is a fagget.
