After the passing of Guru in 2010, his former producer Solar was criticized by many, including members of Guru’s family. Solar was criticized for being controlling, “manipulative” and abusive. He also responded to questions about a potential homosexual relationship with Guru. Recently, Solar talked about the criticism he has faced and discussed these rumors, which he has called “disgusting and obscene.”
In his interview with Suzanne Biello of GID Radio’s SB Show, Solar talked about those who criticized him. Specifically, he responded to critics like ?uestlove, Bumpy Knuckles and Guru’s Gang Starr partner, DJ Premier.
“What I said to all them back then, I’ll say again,” Solar began. “Before they should have been saying anything in the media, they should have been talking to me directly. Come and get the story from me. I’m the only one who knows. Nobody else was there. Don’t make assumptions. Don’t guess. Certainly don’t take those assumptions and guesses and feed it to the public like it’s fact.”
Solar then explained that his phone is open to ?uest, Knuckles and Premier. He followed this up by saying that many of his critics need to “come clean.”
“I think people should come clean,” Solar continued. “I think they should step up, man up and come clean. Be a man and own up. You lied and misled the people for reasons that are only known to yourselves. It has nothing to do with the music you make or whatever but you did this. That man couldn’t defend himself and I’m sitting here defending him. And I’ll be damned if I’ma let anybody kick any more dirt on my name or Guru’s name from here on in. That’s over. For real.”
Solar also explained why he has not worked with many others since Guru’s passing.
“I just really needed to take some time to mourn Guru,” he noted. “I lost my brother. It was very difficult to come to terms with losing somebody so great, that was so important, not only to myself, but to the world. To complicate the matters more, of course, is the crazy rumors, in most cases, the disgusting and obscene rumors, that were going around.”
Solar talked about these rumors in 2010. In an interview with MTV’s Sway Calloway, Solar said that the rumors of a romantic relationship with Guru were “completely unfounded and untrue.” He said the notion of him being abusive to Guru was “idiotic.” More of this 2010 interview can be viewed below.

It was Guru’s choice to leave Premier, so think about that before people even bother throwing shots at 7 Grand. Street Scriptures was dope, and Lost & Found had it’s moments.

solar’s beats are super hot. jazzmatazz vol. 4 was classic just like all the other jazzmatazz. lost and found was classic as well. Check out guru’s ”look to the sun” and ”thoze dayz are gone” and tell me that solar’s shits weak. I still love premo, I love gangstarr, guru and big shug are both my fav rappers. please dont lie bout all this shit, guru is a straight up G and wouldnt roll with a dude beating him up and treating him like a clown. when pple lie like that, they make one of my heroes sound like a bitch. guru gay? please, dude got more pussy than sinatra.
Hey look, it’s DJ Solar trolling his wack ass interview
Yeah Solar get the fuck outta here wit that you aint foolin no one
Naw mane. Your beats are wack Solar. The only thing hot about your beats are those hot steaming piles of crap you tried to pass off as hip-hop. You ain’t no “super producer”. Name one classic record recognized by someone other than you. What legends have come to you for beats? Who else have you produced? Super? You a DJ Premiere wannabe. Ain’t nobody trying to work with you. You can’t show your face in the industry. You can’t eat off GURU for long, if you even are at all. Go get that 9 to 5 at Target homie.
Fuck Solar!
Fuck solar!!!
BOSSDON = Solar
No nigga ever said Solar’s beats hot. Maybe Guru but Solar layed the smack down before the interviews so he was shook.
Yo BOSSDON tell us about the 1st time you turnt up Guru
We all know this niggas had a love relationship
So who you dissing? Solar or Guru? It’s a double standard here. Who cares if they was or wasn’t gay. GROW UP.
I think I speak for all when I say FUCK SOLAR
No, you speak for homophobes everywhere.
fuck this homo ass nigga. dudes faggotry is relentless
Solar and Mr. Cee have probably been bum chums.
And I’ll be damned if I’ma let anybody kick any more dirt on my name or Guru’s name from here on in. That’s over. For real.”
FUCK SOLAR
There, dirty enough for you? Common sense lookin faggot.
Not convinced. Fuck Solar.
Fuck Solar. Can’t believe HipHopDX did this interview with this ego maniac
i aint a sheep like most people so im a go on record and say that i dont know the situation so im not gonna judge solar cause premier or any industry nigga had comments about dude cause guru wasnt fucking with premier and them cause they was moving funny
That you, solar? Fuck outta here!!!
real talk, too many dickriders jumping cock to cock just becuz of certain cats status in the game, i say let solar have a chance to defend himself.
why would i be solar for cause i got a different opnion then everybody else the problem is yall niggas dickride and hop on cock without knowing the situation in its full understanding alot of these underground producers and rappers is fake niggas
To quote the late, great Guru “You shouldn’t let your jealousy show like that.” This has nothing to do with anyone’s “status” in the industry. I could give a fuck less about that. Fact of business, solar is a piece of human shit who tweeted from a comatose man’s account, wrote a bogus deathbed letter, but niggas is dick riders and cock jumpers cause it’s fuck solar?!!! eat a million dick and wash ’em down with a piss smoothie. There’s nothing for him to defend. His actions have spoken louder than any words he can attempt to speak. And his beats are ass which speaks to the skill of Guru as an emcee, for making that trash truck juice any bit of tolerable. Any of your solar trolls want to respond after this, have at it. I’m done playing with you “special” kids. RIP Guru. Fuck solar.
p. dom just crushed the game with that one. no arguments here.
Gangstarr is gots to be the sho shot!!! Fuck Solar
Fuck Solar and his wack ass beats
ja rule should slap this nigga
FU^& SOLAR!
Scandalous, money greed and lust
In this trife life, there ain’t nobody you can trust
Plus there’s no justice, it’s just us
In fact, watchin’ yo back it be must
And each and everyday around the way gats bust
And jealous so-called friends’ll try to set you up
It’s called betrayal
DX, please don’t give this man the opportunity to rewrite history. He made wack music with Guru, cut him off from his family and friends, was disrespectful towards him, and then falsified a document and pretended that it was from Guru when he was not healthy enough to write it. And his music is wack and no one’s checking for it. Please don’t post anything from this man ever again.
agreed. let him fade away and be forgotten about
just watch
HHDX has nothing interesting to post so they had to bring this homosexual weirdo back in the news. Shame on you. Let Guru live, fuck this bullshit.
phuxx dis sucka nigga…I wont even give him the time of my day by pressing the play button on this video clip….
Wow really DX???? Smh……. Not too long ago you blessed us with that Marco Polo produced dedication to GURU….and now this shit. What the fuck man…..
they a news site they dont have to pick sides
The real Solar is MC Solaar. Remember that French dude that did a track with Guru? That shit was hot to def
Too right.
Yeah dudes keep getting the two confused.
I feel sorry for MC Solaar having his name permanently tainted by this clown
Emotional Backpack faggots just couldnt come to terms with the fact that, even on his death bed, Guru had no words for DJ Premier so they made a scapegoat out of this dude to make themselves feel better.
You know how big a piece of shit somebody has to be for a man who’s dying to be like “Fuck him I aint talking to him”, lol, ya’ll cornballs like his beats so much you assume you know the manm he could be a total scumbag for all you know in real life.
Liar
I don’t know man, the whole thing with Solar did look shady as hell. At the same time, though, as hip-hop fans we’re biased because Gang Starr was Guru’s classic shit so we all want Guru and Preme, not Guru and Solar, so we pick sides. I wasn’t there, I don’t know what really happened so I can’t say for certain either way.
You gotta remember, though, when you buy into all the rumors about Solar, you’re buying into rumors about Guru was there. So if you believe the stories, it means you believe Guru was a punk who couldn’t stand on his own mentally or physically. Is that really better than the alternative?
Liar..
you should have stood quite fuckface! You just opened up a can of worms ……..again! And Nigga who you foolin’? Your beats are hot garbage! Soulja Boy has better beats than you! Stop the non sense and go back to hiding under the rock you came out of.
Seriously! Even after all this time, this wack dude still confuses people hating HIM with people talking bad about GURU. Dearest dipshit, stop associating yourself with Guru when people talk trash about you. No one wants to work with your wack ass, no one likes you and hopefully you’ll get run over one day soon and peeps can forget about you and come piss on your grave.
Stop claiming you had the best-selling hip hop-jazz album of all time, cause that aint even a genre stupid! You tainted the GangStarr legacy, so celebrate your double-wood plaque and STFU.
I hope you know that Solar and MC Solaar are not the same person
Nothing but the pure greed of rapitalist thinking motivated the interview with this person. MTV, who couldn’t care less if something’s good as long as many morons buy into it, can’t even claim he’s popular or relevant.
Greed. Stop the rapitalist bullshit. Fans need to take an interest in good music, not ‘same old, same old’ popular music. Making an effort can become a trend if the fans dictate it that way.
Liar.
Wow, I ma guessing it is this bitch ass ‘Lunar’ masquerading as an ‘Anon’ responding up on here cause ain’t no sane person or one with half a brain would defend this piece of trash claiming he is from Nyack but my folks up there have never heard of him which means he’s a bitch ass homebody, no street dude and because of this fucker GURU’s name is somewhat tainted. Fuck anyone up on here defending this bitch ass lunar fucker.
guessing
If it’s all lies then why is everyone supposedly lying?? Doesn’t make any sense.
What does make sense is that Solar is lying
For some strange reason Mister Cee called Solar.
Solar choked on a tanker truck filled with semen, last I heard.
So where are the Guru’s Haters? Do you suppose that they were the ones who contributed to The Rumors, or rather just laughed and giggled their ass off, as they saw the public turn on Him? Guru’s Legacy has been dimmed drastically; and lets not forget Guru’s rhymes toward the media, propaganda, and fake people in general; even if they were people with financial power. Do you suppose they had their share in Guru’s “disgusting and obscene” Rumors? Or what?
Let’s address the Rumors once more:
The SB Show on the GIDRadio.
http://gidradio.com/2013/05/03/podcast-solar-on-the-sb-show/
^^^^^^^^^^ What it says.
You know how I know your comment, and ultimately your intelligence, is invalid? Doesn’t matter, but as far as the record goes, Im really me, and Solar is someone else. Can’t get anymore ABC123 for you. Peace
Solar is speaking what really went happened Cancer is Fucked up and the lies was to many count but they never said Cancer theu said other shit but we know now it was cancer. So we kno Solar was speaking the truth.
The same person commenting 100 times here is the same dude that put all that Guru faggot shit out there.A crazy Solar groupie weirdo! Lol
Solar and Guru put top selling rdcords out and thier world tours all sold out. So you dudes are delusional that nobdy like s Solars work. solar is one of the best producers Guru worked with
Premier is so fucking insane and jealous he started all this hate to hide his recycled garbage.
That he got sued a million times for.
You’re joking, right?? The shows were sold out because of GURU, NOT fuckin Solar! Solar is one of the worst producers i’ve ever heard! He hasn’t made one hot beat in his fuckin life!! Dumb muthafucka!
Why Did Gangstarr breakup?? Cause premier waas doing gay porn smoking crack and stealing money Thats why!
You’re a fucking FAGGOT. Who and why would someone like your bitchass self make some bullshit up like that? Why would anybody be hatin’ on Premier right now? Stupid fucks saying Premier had people murdered! You should be killed for sayin that shit, you fuckin cocksuckers!!!
Premier had big L and headquarters Murdrered and he tryed to have Guru killed in Queens in the late 90’s why nobody asking how this nigga got all these dead artists around him?
Yo Guru bounced on this dude for good reason and you faggots crying like bitch ass faggots! That man chsoe Solar for his music if you don’t like it just don’t listen why you dedicating your life to hatin on Guru and Solar? Cause you bitchs dats why no taLent hoes. Lmao
If you dude hate Solar why you still ridin his dick he aint giving you no fucking light why yaul still fuckin wit him den
You the same Dickheads who said Solar was going to jail he don’t look like he in jail to me
WHY THIS FAGGOT PREEM don’t come clean bout why Guru rally stopped fuckin wit him???
Yo I never knew who Solar was until you hatin ass bicths started cryin. now i checked his work
and its Solid. Big blown ass stars worked wit da G and they don’t work wit losers and nobodys
you sound like a buch of haters in love get over it
Truly spoken truly spoken bout time we heard the truth
Nice to see Solar is good Guru would be happy to see Solar back in the spotlight
great pic the Gs Look Brolic lol
I never believed thses weirdos hatin on Guru and Solar they was to extra
same old hate we head over an over wit no truth to it!
Why is it Solar is the only one who mourned Guru’s passing?
Why these dude sound like broken records yaul is bitchs hatin on these men Guru had his own mind and chose Solar what the fuck cant you undrestand
ALL PREMIERS BEATS ARE THE SAME
That’s called a “signature” sound, that obviously VERY FEW producers can come up with. Premier’s the best to do it, besides Dre.
Duke Premier can’t make a new soundin Beat its not siganture its da same beat all the time wit tha same old scatchs over and over WTF this dude is old and wack. Gur hated that same old shit all da time and who could blame him sample after sample. This dude sucks his beats suck he dont even make music he just jacks others music
I always thought all these rumors were wck now its clear that this was a frame up of Guru and Solar to cover the truth of whta really went down with gangstarr and pree
The Truth always takes time to get out but I beleive Solar and have to question why he was never given a chance to denie the rumore properly and state the facts
you haitin ass niggas is the ones who sound gay all you do is make homo comments Solar
never be sayin anything slightly home but you dudes all sound flimsy not to mention how much attentio you given this man reall girlish feminine
get over it Solar is who Guru chose he through preem out and moved on its his right stop hatin
its over get a grip Guru has spoken
why the press not askin premier his invovlement with the murders of Big L and headquarters
its real suspicious
WTF are you talkin about, dog? Like, for real man. Wtf are you saying?
MURDER Prmier Murdred Big L: and headquarters its that simple he is Guilty and the Police will get him. Why don’t he answer no questions bout it?? Guru bounced cause he was aware
wurt this dude was up too then he tried to have Guru murdered in queens.
Premeir had a big gain from kmurdreing Big L and headquarters I hope the police arrest him
And what would that gain be?? What gain would Premier get by murdering Big L?
Thats why the Police and the investigators are looking to arrest Premier for Murder.
They will reveal why after the arrest and indictment. But it is obvious premier Murdred them and tried to murder Guru.
I heard the cold case squad has reopened thier investigation into the murdres of Big L and headquarters
All you punk bitches making shit up about DJ Premier are pathetic pussies. Somebody knows the real story why Guru started working with Solar, but it’s not you! All I know is DJ Premier is a stand up dude, has never sold out, has kept it real since day one. That says a lot about him as a person. I don’t believe this faggot Solar one bit. Premier and his Gang Starr affiliates tried to go to the hospital to see what the fuck was going on and they weren’t even able to see him! Countless times on records and mix tapes, all you hear is Premo talking about how much Guru is missed and to RIP. I just want to know the truth! I;m not like you muthafuckas who hear rumors and then pretend that they’re facts. Don’t be fuckin stupid.
Yeah Solar and everybody that was around Guru when he bounced fro this piece of shit Premier. Its all on Youtube check Gusmo truth on Gangstar breakup Prk=mier smoking crack doing gay porn etc. People are protecting Premier and thats why he framed Guru
and Solar to hide his Murderous horrible ways and true him from being revealed andtold. He thought Solar was going to tell on him. But Solar kept it 100 and fell back. But its all coming out now. Premier Murdred Big L and Headquarters The POLICE is closing in on him why dont the media question him on these murders connected to him???
Middle aged, Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man lookin’ Solar is hitting these comments pretty fierce with his multiple aliases. But what else is he going to do? He has no career, and no skills except gamin’ social media to look like he has fans (it’s pretty easy to by followers and clicks, which anyone over the age of 9 knows). Premier, who actually has fans, a career, money, etc…is laughin at this old never-been clown.
Look at prmier duke and Jay Z Solar is Younger than jay an premier wut you talkin bout groupie dude?? solar is working on multiple projects and promoting the Guru Solar catalogue, as well as confroting you wierdos Lol. i see exclusives wit da biggest Hip Hop an music outlets with Solar. So thats wut he’s doing. yo you need to go take da dic out your mouth and get some facts cause you sound crazy. solar is touring doing work with superstars and releasing new material. Facts check his interveiws ot listen to this loser. LMAO
Solar is the one Guru trusted. he left prmier alone and stopped talking to him.
Stop blaming solar and ask premier why? Thats the sane normal thing to do.
The hip hop media is cursed for the frame up they did to Guru and Solar.
prmier is Guilty and hidin ish and I feel like the truth is coming out now
wit Solar.
Solar is younger than Hugh Hefner and Joan Rivers, that’s about it. He’s several years older than Preemo.
Also, Hi Solar.
Solar is bigger than these haters want to except but he is a huge Prducer and world Known. That is a fact all the outlets he is in Now Source Vibe all hip hop fuse MTV BET CNN they omly inetrveiw and cover superstars. real talk he is Guru’s real supporter and he is who Guru chose so these haters are hatin as usual. same ol tired song.
Why is nobody in the medai asking about the Murder of Big L and headquarters by Premier.
the Police have always had him as a suspect. They brought him in for questioning in both murders fact. Then he threatened Solars life but only the police took notice. where is the unbiased so called hip hop media on these murders and prmiers invlovement or at least his take on twomurders of his artists?? Guru wqs wise to get away from this Murderer. I hope the Police lock him up soon.
Premier Is a Murderer an thats why he is going to go to Jail! thier is no statute of limitation on Murder Big L headquarters the media maybe covering for him but the Police and the investigators hired by guru’s lawyers will take him to jail. where he belongs.
Its about time the people hear the truth. Solar is very credible he never pimped off guru like premier and Justin, comon these duedes is scandolous and the hip hop media is guilty for
going along.
Solar hasn’t played any shows or released any new music since before Solar dies. Why is the press still pretending this punk is actually doing anything? Bookmark this and come back 2 years from now – he still will have not played any shows because 1. No one will pay for his shit 2. He is scared to be seen in public.
*should read “since before Guru died” obviously
Pathetic sociopath Solar buys Twitter followers for his @SolarOfficial account, and has a second Twitter account named @TheOfficial1one where he tries to pick up on video-hos/professional prostitutes.
Solar is the greatest person I’m the world. He never comments on articles about himself. As you can see from the comments here, it is perfectly plausible these are from his “fan/s” as they are written under different names. The comments are not over the top in their support of solar making it obvious it is solar commenting.
Also these magazines/ hip hop websites want to talk to you not because of any of your future projects/past projects but because of the controversy surrounding gurus death have made u a z-list celebrity
Solar is a faggot. Guru was a faggot too but at least he made good music. Solar was just a faggot that capitalized off Guru.
Hey Solar, you pathetic fuck boy. scroll down and look at my comment from 3 years ago, Look how right I was.
