    I'm still shaking my head at this bit:

    "Boston has been a bit kind of funny you know. They don't want to give you that hero's welcome that I deserve."

    I know, right? Dude has repped us so hard for so many years, and we turn the cold shoulder. I'm ashamed of this city.

    It's not a grammatical correction. Guru's not making a grammatical mistake. He's contriving the grammar to make things rhyme. It comes across contrived. Doye.


    Wow. If that's an issue for you, you might want to not listen to hip-hop.

    I just found out that while Iron Maiden used perfect grammar, they never fought a dragon. Totally contrived AKA Bad Art.

    PS unclesanchez you got a location what has the word "bang-osity" in it who the F wrote that garbation LOL

    Unclesanchez in the Prop 1A thread:



    Having a face in a community makes me want to be responsible to my face.


    CHECK YOUR FACE.

    CHECK YOUR FACE.

    make sure to prepare a speech bubble with "eat a dick," in the font of your choice

    Yeah, for all Guru's talk about Solar being a genius he basically just threw on a Cerrone record for Guru to rhyme over. Not only is that a horrible example of clever production, it's also a horrible match for Guru musically. I like Supernature, but that's a poor choice for Guru.

    hold on, seriously, is he wearing a lady gaga (!?) t-shirt in that pic at the bottom?

    all i know is that schitt don't sound nuthin' like Gangstarr, that's for sure... i guess that's what Guru and his boy wanted though. after a few listens i actually do like it more than i did when i first heard it, cuz the first impression was

    good luck to them

    i don't understand guru's attitude towards primo. if gangstarr was putting out a new record, i would copp, no questions.

  • It's not a grammatical correction. Guru's not making a grammatical mistake. He's contriving the grammar to make things rhyme. It comes across rather brilliant and economical[/b]

    i ride for any mc who will steer the rap game away from stereotypes and closer to art.
    gang starr was always on some other sh*t.

    i don't know but i would guess it has something to do with the dj / producer getting way more credit for the group's success than the rapper. i think cl smooth had a major problem with this as well. i don't think magoo cared so much.

    one thing that didnt sit right w/ me was what i considered as guru's disregard for where he came from Boston esp w/ his constant NY this Brooklyn that must be my age because i can distinctly remember that NY bias bs and to me that shit was wack

  • Jonny_PaycheckJonny_Paycheck 17,825 Posts
    Well I'd be interested to hear it from some Boston heads, I mean Guru has always mentioned being from there but obviously spent a lot more time bigging up Brooklyn. Does the LBE (Local Boston Experience!) feel like he deserves a "hero's welcome"?

    why does premier get a brooklyn pass, being from texas, but guru dosen't?
