Wow.

He was actually a great lyricist / rapper. Not really recognized much but Gang Starr were classic.

Wow this is heartbreaking. To read Premo's writing like that is shattering. I can't believe it, I thought the worst of it was passed when he got out of the coma.

To all Hip Hop heads, Gang Starr are a very big deal. Even to Eminem, who asked them to do a track for the 8 Mile soundtrack.

Very sad day. RIP Guru and Gang Starr forever.

Fucking awful news, worst thing is it was looking like he was going to pull through.

He did his part in Hip Hop. At least he died a respected man. Rest in peace. :b:

What he said.. And although he died on cancer, I don't feel like he's lost, he's been fighting to the very end, now that's worth the respect.
