Ghostface Killah & Friends (Hiro Ballroom)

Last night, Ghost held a MySpace concert I was oblivious to at the Hiro Ballroom in NYC. Pretty Tone ran through classics including personal favorite, “Strawberry”…with Kid Cudi? Other special guests included Redman, Jadakiss, Large Pro, and Raheem DeVaughn. At the 8:15 mark, Starks reveals that he’s never received royalties for his albums due to pricey sample clearances. Instead, he used it as a trade off for producing a dope catalogue. Thanks, Ghost. You are appreciated.
Props: Rekstizzy
Update: Blows were thrown and a fuckin’ fight scuffle broke out.





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.

There’s not much $$ to be made from album royalties anyway. Could you picture Ghost rocking over synth beats? No, he has too much soul for that.
