Who are you and what have you done with Guru? Seriously, we go from the emotional rollercoaster ride of thinkin' we're gonna lose one of the game's greatest MCs to some sick pathetic soap opera involving a man of no blood or kin relation denying family members the right to see their loved one. Now yes Keith Elam may not wanna reconcile with folks he hasn't been on good terms with for the past seven years but that's his decision not yours. From the outside lookin' in, you seem really shady. And if Guru's nephew claim is true that you signed documents as Keith Elam's brother and your wife as his sister than that's just plain alarming. An abuse of power. Releasing statements to websites and official Twitter accounts in Guru's name when he doesn't appear to be able to speak on his own behalf is also misleading and completely wrong. Be clear: At this point the only thing relevant and important is the status of Guru's health. Nobody gives a fuck about you or 7 Grand. Guru's legacy is Gang Starr. DJ Premier and Guru made classics. You and Guru make crap. And you should get slapped for meddling in family business.
I'm not dissin' but you shoulda stayed missing. Everybody in the club get tipsy. Nobody in the club remember your name. Damn shame.Big Boi x Raekwon "Skew It On The Bar-B" (Live Rock The Bells Finale S.F.)

OK, still confused by the latest in the Budden-Raekwon beef timeline? Well, YN’s here for ya. After all the drama that occurred on Saturday (Find a site that was more on top of it then the Double R), both Raekwon and Budden’s Slaughterhouse group were scheduled to perform the next day in San Fran and, in fact, both acts did so. Rae actually had multiple appearances, including the above video with Big Boi. Now how’d that happen without more fisticuffs? Well the Rock The Bells founder gave XXL the scoop.
Weisberg said at first both rappers were not being cooperative, but before Sunday’s show he was able to get Budden and Rae in a room to shake to settle their differences and shake hands. “It was heated,” he told XXL, “people were not feeling some situations and at the end of the day sometimes the best action is no action at least in L.A. But in San Francisco, yes, everybody got in a room, there were a lot of discussions and were able to keep it moving. “
“I don’t believe they’ll be any more issues moving forward,” he continued. Weisberg credits several key people for being able to defuse the tension. “At the end of the day a lot of other really good people got involved and made sure that we kept things on a positive note,” he said. “You walked into hip-hop summer camp, From KRS-One to Busta Rhymes, to Joell [Ortiz], to Royce [da 5”9”] to our entire staff, there’s a lot of people that have a lot of really good relationships. Helped to lend perspective.”
Thankfully, the tour ended yesterday and we still haven’t heard from Budden and/or Raekwon for confirmation on these recent developments. Last we left, Mouse texted this cryptic message mere minutes before taking the stage last night.
Slaughterhouse album in stores tmw, y’all. Ha!
Sidebar: Escape Route released on the same day? OK, I’m confused like Young Buck again.
Sidebar 2: IceWaterTV just uploaded a video today and it had nothing to do with fighting.
Update: OK, one more note. Although Rock The Bells (the main tour) did end yesterday, there is a second leg of RTB that launches tonight in San Diego. Slaughterhouse are booked on this tour from now until Aug 31st and Raekwon is slated for select markets. The saga continues.
AFTER HE GOT SNUFFED BY RAE’S MAN, HE WAS PUT IN A ROOM FACT TO FACE WITH RAE CLOSE ENOUGH TO SHAKE HIS HAND, BUT HE DIDN’T FIRE OFF ON HIM? JOE BUDDENS PUSSY!
