"Cannot afford to be confined to a cell. Brainwaves swell,
turnin a desert to a well”
This was the first Gang Starr song I heard, I remember being hooked from the start when Guru mutters ‘uh uh uh, uh uh uhhuh’. With lyrics that paint a vivid picture, a silky flow and one of the best voices in hip-hop Guru (1961-2010) will always be one of the greats. The Hip-Hop duo made up of Guru and the legendary DJ Premier created the album Moment of Truth in 1998 which this track comes off and Ownerz in 2003, another one of my favourites. Other bangers from Gang Starr include, ‘Work’, ‘Nice Girl Wrong Place’ and ‘Skills’. - JTFD
