Daaaam....You know how dope a whole album with Nicolay and Guru would be too? That has to be a dope combo, but still add Primo in there to sweeten the deal. hehe.

A Beat Nut

I miss 90s hiphop
i actually listened to the track today. to be honest, it sounds like a typical guru track .. just in auto tune.. thats what i mean he isnt a great rapper to me.. if u replaced the beat with a premo cut and took away the autotune it would sound just like his other stuff.. its not like he changed his whole demeanor.. its still him, just produced differently. What ur hearing is not the degeneration of guru, but simply the absence of preemo.

GURU is caught between a rock and a hard place musically. I think from now until the moment he hangs up the mic, he'll forever be linked to DJ Premier, even though they haven't released music as Gangstarr in quite some time.
I applaud GURU's effort to move forward musically - and as an artist he has always tried to push the boundaries of his talent (see: Jazzmatazz) and with his newer stuff with Solaar, believe it or not, he's trying to show "the game" and younger artists that he's still relevant and can do this just as well as anyone, which is why he took the mis-step of "adding a lil' T Pain" to his vocals.
I know Gangstarr as a group had a lot of label woes, and things got kinda stale which is why he went w/ a new partnership and indie label direction w/ Solaar. My thoughts are that die hard GURU/Gangstarr fans will never accept Solaar as a substitute no matter what they put together as a collective.

Heard the song again today....
Guru over that beat is horrible.....When the beat isn't that great, he sounds like shit.....
He doesn't have the swag to be under those beats....or that down south voice...
BTW the beat kinda sucks....
