Guru Releases Statement About His Recovery
March 3rd, 2010
Guru aka Gifted Unlimited Rhymes Universal aka Keith Elim, suffered a heart attack over the weekend due to unknown causes.
He under went surgery Monday that was successful, and released a statement today through his production partner Solar’s PR site.
The statement in part reads that:
Solar wants to make clear that only he has access to Guru and his doctors and he would appreciate if people would respect Guru’s privacy in this matter.
“Guru is resting and doing well after his surgery. The doctors say that he will fully recover from his illness. We thank everyone who send prayers our way and we appreciate the outpouring of love from around”
Quoted as Guru’s own words, the Gang Starr and Jazzmatazz MC states:
“I am doing fine and I am recovering! I’m weak though. Solar is the only person who has the accurate info on my situation. Any info from anybody else is false! I appreciate your well wishes and all the love!” says the legendary MC.”
The statement ends by saying “During what must be an incredibly hard and stressful period in life, keep sending your prayers, thoughts, and wishes”
Guru’s 21 year DJ/Producer DJ Premier, who first confirmed the news of his heart attack on a Satelite radio Sunday night.
