On February 28, 2010 Guru suffered a cardiac arrest, which left him in a coma. Early online rumors swirled around his alleged death, but no such death has been confirmed as of March 1.

Really like the Jazzmatazz albums and I was looking forward to the prospect of more Gangstarr material.

Damnn. Hope he pulls through and recovers after the surgery.
Gangstarr's presence is sorely missed in current HipHop.

"Lemonade was a popular drink and it still is."

Gutted, I love Gangstarr, had their albums since the mid 90's and I know them all backwards and forwards

FFS nooo. One of the best yet!

I really hope he gets better.

Surgery was apparently succesful and is in an induced coma.

Doubt it, him and Premier haven't spoken in years.

Damn, 43, that's no age for a heart attack

Hope he recovers. I have lots of love for Guru's music.

Guru mentioned it on his twitter page so I got my hopes up.

Sounds like he's recovering though.

Not sure if anyone had seen, but Guru (Keith Elam) sadly passed away yesterday after a year long battle with cancer.

Details and a touching letter he wrote to his fans in the link below:

R.I.P Guru.

Damn, such a shame, he was talented and had respect for great music.

RIP Guru. 43 isn't even old.

It's a huge loss to hip-hop...actually no, it's a huge loss to music in general, one of the few great talents out there
