DJ Premier Shares CLASSIC Stories On Jay-Z, Nas, RZA, J. Cole & The Beginnings Of Gang Starr
Legendary producer DJ Premier stepped up to Ebro in the Morning to share some classic stories about the beginnings of Gangstarr and more.
He spoke on how he was supposed to work with Jay-Z before the release of ‘The Black Album’, recording Nas’ ‘Illmatic’, working with Biggie before the time of ‘Ready To Die,’ getting new Guru verses for his new project, working with Mac Miller, & why he decided to step away from DJing the BET Hip Hop Cypher.
Gang Starr’s first new album in 16 years, ‘One of the Best Yet’ is available now.

Damn. I'm glad his father got to go how he wanted. My mom kinda chose too luckily even if it was cancer she was dealing with. It's been tough but we keep at it. My mom wouldn't want it any other way. Keep struggling so we can live. It's part of life
Premo made alot of rappers successful /gave them underground recognition … ja rule da damaja krs gang star nas biggie big L Jayz… he gave all these artist memorable classics…. he's part of the reason why the eastcoast rappers held the title for hiohop… every east coast rapper needed a premo track to be established…but ppl are crazy to compare rza to him ..even tho rza is hard ..but he dont stretch as far as him..
DJ Premier = Legendary. No other words to sum up one of Hip Hop's most incredibly profound and amazing producers in history. Point blank; simple as that; nuff said.
