RIP Guru (for swedish readers)
2010/04/23
Hey. Sorry I haven’t written anything here for a while. I was going to write pt. II of the “Why I Luv…” series about one my all time fav tracks “Who’s Gonna Take The Weight?” by Gang Starr. Those lyrics and that beat really deserve dissection and a declaration of their greatness. But while I was starting to think about that text Guru fell into a coma. He never recovered as we know now. Neither did I recover enough to ever write that text. And now the man is dead. RIP.
It’s so sad and affects me deeply. I’ve been a fan for about 20 years. I’m really gonna miss Guru. Perhaps I will write that article on “Who’s Gonna Take The Weight?” in the future. But I can’t do it right now. I did write sort of an In Memoriam for Guru in swedish which was published here: http://www.throwmeaway.se/artiklar/farval-guru/, so if you’re intrested in that and can read swedish, head on over there for further reading.
Peace in the middle eas’!
