Video: Young Guru Interview w/ Rap Radar Pts. 2-4
On Monday, Jay-Z’s engineer-turnt-DJ Young Guru stopped by the RR mansion after getting off the plane from NC and celebrating his birthday in Atlanta with 9th Wonder and Young Jeezy.
In the second part of his interview, he responds to Dr. Cornel West’s claim that Jay lost his hunger, his private lifestyle/philanthropy, the freemasonry misconception and Jay expanding the culture. After the jump, he talks about the public’s reception of Blueprint 3, the Beanie Sigel beef and the infamous “Oh Boy” session. In the last part he talks about hackers and the measures he’s taken to protect himself from piracy even though he seems to know the tricks of the trade.
There’s some great insight here from someone who rarely speaks but who’s been around for the past 11+ years and has seen a lot and that clearly knows a lot too. Props to RapRadar

@Jersey
I know it’s done all over the country but it seemed like Va was the epicenter of fast food hook ups. I had a Rally’s connect and a Hardee’s connect for breakfast. If I coulda had a chick on the inside at Popeyes I mights suffocated off eating 3 biscuits at the same time.
March 4th, 2010 at 2:09 pm

March 4th, 2010 at 2:26 pm
Guru seems like a cool, educated brother….. i see why Jay only records with him.
March 4th, 2010 at 4:01 pm
yea all these interviews were real good…..and the interviews rapradar had with memphis bleek was good too…
March 4th, 2010 at 5:47 pm
Yo nation next time you sit down wit someone in the Roc camp, ask them about the unreleased songs. Unlike some Jay albums where the album just comes out and you don’t really know what landed on the cutting room floor alotta information about bp3 tracks bled out over the months. Ask what happened to ‘She’s Like that all the time,’ ‘Sweep’, jada said he was supposed to be on the album, and J.Cole mentioned that when Jay played him some of the album there was def more than 3 songs with Timbo beats. Bp3.5 anyone??
