Gang Starr – “Family and Loyalty” Ft J. Cole

Though Guru passed away nearly a decade ago, “Family and Loyalty” is quintessential Gang Starr. Collectively, Premier and Guru have always functioned as a connective tissue between socially conscious and street. “Family and Loyalty” is cut from the same cloth; as Guru deftly pivots from the things that can’t be bought (love and respect), infinite thoughts and knowledge of self to fly girls who hold heat.  If hearing Gang Starr resurrected wasn’t enough, Preem and Guru welcome J. Cole into the Gang Starr family and he puts an exclamation point to thier signature sound.
