The Guru situation… it sounds like something from a Tarantino movie, and thus far it sort of plays like one. It’s been hard to keep up and keep track of all the rumors spread around the internet or from people just talking on the streets about it,but one thing is seems to be true, Guru (Gifted Unlimited Rhymes Universal) legendary MC from Gang Starr (hi Kim) went into cardiac arrest and possibly a coma. Some odd talk was strewn about from GURU as well SOLAR via cryptic twitter posts which lead to Justin Elam-Ruff (GURU’s Nephew) to come out and say that Solar was up to some shenanigans and wouldnt update GURU’s fam or allow them to see GURU, this lead to this quote from Solar,
“I have nothing but the deepest love and respect for The Elam family. But I have not stopped anybody from seeing him! Guru’s brother, sister and niece has visited with him and his brother was here for three days. I am in touch with them on a daily basis. Guru’s family dynamic and who he wants to look out for his interests is Guru’s business and best left to Guru to discuss. I will state that Guru wanted this matter to be kept private to protect his loved ones and fans from this ordeal, and from it becoming a circus, which it is becoming. Guru has made clear he does not want anything to do with certain people from his past, and for them too be making false statements about his health is unacceptable.” The producer continued, “Guru’s well being and need to heal is what I am concerned with,and that Guru’s wishes in this matter be observed.”
soak all that in….

The truth will come to light – DJ Premier
now this was just posted via Live @ HQ Blog from Biggest Gord Manager @ Year Round Records,
this past friday i had the responsibility to pick up Justin Elam-Ruff from the airport and take him to the livefromheadqcourterz radio show….thats right this young man after posting this videothis and this hit the wire….uhhh huuuhh!!!… and shaking up, not only my world, but, also the hip hop world……he made another decision, got on a plane and flew across the country to finish what he started…. the next morning i had the responsibility to take him to the hospital where his uncle remains in a coma..he really hadn’t slept much especially since at around 5am saturday morning….
we approached the information desk in the main lobby of the hospital…we were asked “how can i help you gentlemen” by the intake woman at the front desk…Justin replied…”i’m here to visit my uncle keith elam”….the rather nice but professional older woman who asked the first question raised her eyebrow and responded…”lemme check the list”…..her first response after checking the first list was…”well your name is not on this list let me check the other list”……she then continued….”oh ok, your name is on this list”….”i’m sorry i cannot allow you to go see the patient”…yeah let that marinate… it seems like there were two lists…one list (the first list she looked at) had the names of people allowed to visit(the patient) …..the other list(the second list she checked) had the names of people who were not allowed to visit(the patient)
and
JUSTIN NICHOLAS ELAM-RUFF’s name was on that second list….TRUTH!!
oh soooo many questions……
his attempt to see his uncle at this point in the saga was DENIED!!……FACT!!
I will continue this tale soon….for now……
rumor has it capt. cape man will be on a new york based morning show on monday….we will be listening….until then my GANG STARR collection will be on repeat….please keep Guru in your prayers….it ain’t over…..
Let’s see if Solar Meets His Moment of Truth
My opinion is basically the same as Statik Selektah’s on this one
I’m pretty sure I speak for everyone when I say we just want the best for GURU and want to know of his status and hows hes doing cuz we’re truly concerned for the man. You can be a part of Bumpy Knuckles Operation Save Guru Movement, we’re behind him 100% GET WELL GURU!
