Terrible news. It was no secret Guru had struggles with the bottle, but I
would not have expected a heart attack.

Really? I never heard that. How long was that the case?

Maybe that why there was a longer gap after each subsequent Gang Starr record. And why he was kind of off point on the last two. Not to mention his dreadful solo records. Still, he's one of my top 10 rappers of all time.

Coinciding with the releasing of The Ownerz, he spoke on struggling with
alcohol and how it almost broke up Gang Starr on a few occasions. There
was other talk of a coke habit, but that's just that...talk. The excessive
drinking was something Guru admitted to. It definitely affected his
productivity and relationship with DJ Premier.

Anybody that says they like hip hop music, and they don't own any
Gang Starr, I don't trust those people.

They are the band that you can use to tell if someone is really into hiphop or if they just like Jay Z and whatever else.

Owning two Gang Starr albums is better than no Gang Starr albums at all.

So we have:

Revered rapper Guru released a statement to AllHipHop.com today (March 3) as he recovers from surgery after suffering a heart attack over the weekend.

Guru, born Keith Elam, was briefly comatose due to the heart attack. Doctors successfully operated on the 43-year-old MC on Tuesday (March 2).

"I am doing fine and I am recovering! I'm weak though,” Guru told AllHipHop.com in a statement today. “Solar is the only person who has the accurate info on my situation. Any info from anybody else is false! I appreciate your well wishes and all the love!"

Guru and his family are asking for privacy as he recovers and stressed for fans to continue to send prayers, thoughts and love.

His partner Solar echoed Guru’s comments about the need for privacy but told fans the outlook is positive for the rapper.

Additionally, only Solar will have access to Guru and accurate information regarding the status of his health.

"Guru is resting and doing well after his surgery,” Solar told AllHipHop.com. “The doctors say that he will fully recover from his illness. We thank everyone who send prayers our way and we appreciate the outpouring of love from around the world!”

Solar can be reached by contacting a representative for his publicity firm, Yo-Pr.com.


But then, this from Guru's nephew.

Was Lily Allen saying horrible things about him on Twitter, hence his heart attack?
