	The Daily Collegian - Guru puts on a mixed show
		Well in last week's Guru concert that song, (although not performed), seemed to be a metaphor for the veteran rapper.

		It was also nice to hear Guru solo; his voice is distinct among rappers and has a uniqueness about it that allows his rhymes to seemingly roll off of his tongue without any effort.

	The Beats, the Boom and the Bap
		Guru and DJ Premier (born Keith Elam and Christopher Martin) began striking that balance back in the late '80s after Guru — caseworker for troubled teens, graduate of Atlanta's Morehouse College and son of Boston's first African-American judge — relocated to New York “with $1,500, a duffel bag and a dream,” he says.
		That spare approach leaves plenty of space for Guru to lay it down, and the technique of tracking his “king of monotone” vocals — close-miked with a Neumann U 87 or an AKG 414 — is another aspect of the process that he and Premier have down to a science.
		Generally, Guru writes his lyrics in the studio, focusing his attack with a style of brainstorming that he calls “freestyle writing.” “I'll write under pressure, but the goal is that it won't sound like I'm reading when I spit,” he explains.
