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.Asher Roth Addresses Gay Rumor
Monday, December 21 2009 3:52 PM EST | Posted by: B.Dot | Posted in: Blog, Guest List, True Story
This weekend, rumors swirled that Asher Roth was a homosexual. Clearing the air, Ash released this statement:
I hate to disappoint and take away the entertainment of it all but I am straight, not gay. It’s disheartening to know such “news” on someone’s personal life can be portrayed as fact with no viable source. This, to me, is an opportunity to expose our vulnerability to lies and manipulation through unprofessional and irresponsible news outlets, in which people consider TRUTH. Further, someone’s sexual orientation should NEVER be big news, as it delivers a troubling message to children that they can’t be themselves without fear of judgment. Race, creed, and sexual persuasion should not just be tolerated but understood and accepted. It’s extremely disappointing that this topic would be used with the intention of being hurtful. We are near 2010….2010!! Yet race, sex and religion still play a major role in a hate driven society. For the love of the future and humanity….let’s wake up.

@ Tro Severe — quick question, which scripture says “God Hates Gays”? That line sounds very much Westboro Baptist Church with Fred Phelps and his clan of inbred freaks. Must be nice to have a mind that keeps such good and classy company …..
[...] Roth IS NOT gay, Beanie Sigel IS NOT dead, Kid Cudi IS NOT [...]
@Taylor..it’s in all the bibles…old testment… He said if a man lays with another man they shall be put to death… The story of Lot… Were the two cities were filled with gay men.. God sent two angels to destroy it… You can call it how you want that’s your choice….it’s no hate, but it is what it is… I don’t need a bible to know that shit is wrong… It’s common sense…if god gave you a penis to recreate life… You mean to tell me it’s cool to sex another man ass… But I love him… Ok you love that man but now you want to make love to him? That’s lust…. Come on people This don’t have nothing to do with hate on my part… I’m just puttin the truth out there… If your gay that’s your business… I was just speaking on what yardie was trying to break down… But some one will say it’s ok… There’s nothing wrong with it… But yet gays are shame to come out… Why? Are they scared… Why fear? Are you doing something wrong!!!!?? then ask yourself about this sex change bullshit… If you was born with a penis why would you have it remove… So it can be easier for your partner? There goes that lust again…so yeah Taylor think about that… Before you jump out there…it really don’t have to do with a book… It’s common sense…and the reason I put it out there that it’s in the bible…one cause it is… Two everybody quick to say in god we trust….but yet still do wicked stuff..I’m done with this bullshit…nuff said
@ Tro Severe —
So your answer is “No”, cuz nowhere in the Bible does it say “God Hates Gays”. It does however say something about man laying with mankind is abomination, which has somehow been (wrongly or rightly) construed to be anti-gay sex. I’m not gonna argue about God on a message board, or point out the Bible condoned slavery, patricide, or that the same book of Leviticus says seafood is also abomination, as is having sex with a woman on her period and a long list of other things modern man realizes is just silly. If you wanna live your life by a book written by MEN who wiped themselves with their left hand, be my guest. But learn it – know the context in which it was written (and not just parrot what some high-school grad pastor said) -before you use it to try to oppress anyone. Nuff said.
One, I’m not going by no book…if you had read the the first thing I post… I was just sayin how America say in god we trust… But yet does everything the other way…as far as a person being gay they know that shit ain’t right.. And it doesn’t take much to realize it’s wrong…and you already answer the question your self if it’s and abomination and he said they must be put to death… Common sense tells you he hate this…and you say man find this silly.. Sleeping with a woman on her period is outright nasty.. She is bleeding out waste…as far as seafood yes lobster crabs shrimps are the pork of the sea… Eating anything…and yes I know the bible were writing by men and tamper with…that’s why man was giving the gift of good common sense.. You know right from wrong.. So you answer this: you think a man laying with another man is cool.. Having sex in a place were waste exits? I don’t think so…
@Taylor, your not making no sense. Are you gay? The man put all the reasons out there and you keep on about seafood and other nonsense. The shit just isn’t right! What more do you want. Tro I think he is gay.
@ Ed … no, its you who make no sense. The man (Tro) gave two reasons why it’s “just wrong” – common sense and the bible. Well, the bible says a lot of things NO ONE listens to anymore – like the prohibition of seafood, mixing cotton and wool in one garment, etc etc ad nauseum. As for “common sense”, I’m in no position to argue who has or doesn’t have common sense, when there a clear law that dilineates the concept, get back to me.
Until then, tax paying Americans all deserve the same rights. Period. End of story. If that simple concept goes over your head, then I’m wasting my time.
But this guy is gay. Am I missing something but didn’t this guy come out the closet on the E! network?
I have proof that he is gay
Wake up people the Bible is not meant to be taken literally.
It also says to stone those to death who plant different crops side by side, to burn anyone who wears garments made from different threads, to sell your daughters, to put to death anyone who works on the Sabbath, which for most Christians is every Sunday, and so on and so forth. So what makes all of those things void and homosexuality to be taken literally?
Amen Nicole – you’re a voice a reason wafting over a sea of stupid.
Who could care if he’s gay? How about his music being just awful? Maybe he should address that.
Ok so besides the fact that people are arguing about someones sexuality (someone that NONE of us know personally) the bible doesnt really have anything to do with the topic in my opinion…you guys speak of religion and try to say what one person does or doesnt do is wrong? like wtf? who the fuck are you to judge ANYONE for ANYTHING they choose to do, its none of your business, and these people who are saying that god hates gays? wtf is up with that? god doesnt hate anyone and it shames me to see that people who call themselves “true followers” are actually trying to SPEAK for GOD (who is nothing but a source of faith and love). the entire concept of religion is to spark faith and hope in an individual, not to try to demean ones actions. like fuck people…. ever hear this one? “god grant me the serenity to ACCEPT the things I CANNOT CHANGE, the courage to change the things i can, and the wisdom to KNOW the difference.” and I very much ejoyed reading your post Nicole ;]
