Video: Statik Selektah Comments on Guru Situation
March 5, 2010
Stat comments on the whole situation with Guru and Solar.
“I don’t know personally why he’s sick and why he’s in the hospital. Me and Guru go back to 2001. He came to my birthday party… I’ve known him for a long time, I’ve DJ’d for him a couple of times. I’ve seen… Everybody’s talking about the dude Solar, I’ve met him a bunch of times and he’s in his own world, he’s got his own agenda… It’s obvious. I’m not even being insulting, when you talk to him he’s on his own agenda, he’s in his own planet, he can be real disrespectful. I think the way he’s handling this whole situation, at least the details that the public have – and that he’s publically said – is real disrespectful. I’m sure it’s even extremely more disrespectful if I really knew what was going on.”
Last night on his XM Satellite show Statik went in on Solar playing Gang Starr’s “Take It Personal” and said “Check the lyrics…Solar…take it personal!”
