YN was in the studio during DJ Premier’s Live From HQ Guru Tribute last week.

In this clip, Premo says that in the condition he saw him, there’s “no way” that Guru could have written, much less tweeted, anything that Solar claims Guru did.

He also said Guru’s hair had grown to an afro and his nails were “as long as a ruler.” He said there was no medical reason for Solar to neglect his hygiene to that point, as Premier has taken care of people in the hospital with similar situations before.

“I guess you don’t have the time to do that when you’re falsifying documents”

“The fucked up thing is that he died alone. You suppose to have mad people around you. There was nothing but silence and that respirator. [Cuz that lame ass nigga stopped everybody from coming.]”

I condone any (non-lethal) violence towards Solar, I don’t give a fuck.
