    1. My boss, Birdman takes care of his engineers so they aren’t foreced to get second jobs to put food on the table. That snake Jay-Z needs to step his game up and take care of the people who got him to the top. Guru, come down to YMCMB headquarters in New Orleans and you’ll be taken care of.

      1. bitch ass troll get waynes dick out of your windpipe, jay-z could by lil waynes meaningless life if he wanted too, fuck off and learn how to get pussy..

    2. I don’t know who this nigga is but I hope he can teach these weak ass lil niggas makin beats how to mix shit cause errbodys beats sound like shit now. You cant heat no music in the back ground just 808s and snares. They just bury errthang in the mix now. Nobody gotta ear for mixin anyore besides o.g.s

    3. Young Guru has to be the most underrated beat makers out there today. I listened to Blueprint 2 off of Blueprint 2 the other day, and the way he blended that Good, Bad and Ugly sample with the drums was just amazing… This dude earned my respect… ‘Unleash the flutes on ’em Guru!’…
