Guru, the leading force behind pioneering hip-hop outfit Gang Starr and the Jazzmatazz project, is reportedly in a coma after suffering a heart attack Sunday (February 28).


The 43-year-old rapper is to undergo surgery today (March 1). Guru’s Gang Starr partner DJ Premier confirmed the MC’s condition in a call to satellite radio program Hip Hop Nation, the Guardian reports.

Guru, born Keith Elam, released his last solo album Lost and Found in 2009, which followed up on 2007’s The Hip-Hop Jazz Messenger: Back to the Future from his jazz/hip-hop project Jazzmatazz.

It has been a tumultuous few years for jacksoul front-man, Haydain Neale. He made an amazing recovery from a serious traffic accident a couple years back and recently the band was in the process of releasing their first album in 3 years, SOULmate.
