MY EXPERT OPINION EP

[@reefb4364]

Through this whole conversation you can easily pick up the main theme thru Guru’s life, there was always a Brotha or Sista offering guidance or a hand in getting him to the next level and supporting him on his journey- priceless ✅💯✅💯✅💯✅

[@QstormtheGod]

Well everyone ain’t got that.

[@farmerz97]

He was also open to receiving the guidance. Some people get guidance and push back or don't listen because their ego won't let them. He was humble enough to receive it.

[@reefb4364]

This shit is LEGENDARY i knew about Guru never saw or heard from him but instantly you can understand how someone like him is successful at what he does.

[@Loy365]

Didn't know him myself, heard his name & the oh boy ref makes sense now.. Great interview, It's a great example of how to use your own individual talents and create a career based around your passion & shows you have to be front & centre like the rapper & producer to have an impact on creating classic records .. Another classic show..

[@solomontackie923]

Guru is very special human. His level of knowledge on so many things is mind blowing. The way he explained money as trust, battle rap fans, go-go culture, and so much more. Salute Math on another epic show!!!!

I heard of Young Guru but, never saw him. His knowledge and wisdom about money and the game is priceless and can't be brought. His stories about the game is second to none. I can listen to this brother speak all day and will be in tuned. Good stuff Math can't wait for part 2. This is one of my favorite interviews so far.

[@MatrixxSoundlab]

For starters, I'VE BEEN ANXIOUSLY WAITING FOR THIS ENTIRE INTERVIEW! What I love is that I haven't heard many Young Guru interviews, but whenever I do, I ALWAYS record them because he brings the technical, life lessons, a great introspective on many topics, etc.! Guru is that dude and the name is so fitting. Thank you for this one Math!

[@majorant102]

HOFFA!!! Salute my brother. This is Classic, legendary and History in the making. Way better than TV

[@motioneplays1762]

omg, this is like a talk with a ancient monk in the mountains , so many jewels, salutes from Brasil

[@deidrajames4258]

I ❤️❤️these grown black men conversations. Math you have given a platform and picture of the men who are producers, engineers who created the sounds we hear. It’s awesome to see these people who only get shout out at award shows or producer, engineer credits. They have some amazing stories and gifted individuals. Love it.💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@PoshandpamperedTV]

I feel the same way!

[@vincentmorgan5589]

Who is Guru barber because his shit is Steve Harvey sharp 👌

[@512honey]

I've never heard of this man! But just listening to him is like a breath of fresh air!! This interview was phenomenal! I watched this video at least 10 times! He spoke so clearly! and you understand everything he was saying! He only use 1 curse word and apologize for saying it You! You can see he appreciate everyone who came into his life! His story wasn't about jail, gun voilence, having beef with someone or being in a gang ! He is so spoke so professional and knowledgeable ! I can listen to him all day! Thank you Mr. Guru for this amazing interview!

[@JerseyMac11]

Every installment of this podcast put it further and further and further ahead and out in front of the pod game. This is almost unbelievable. Salute to Math 🫡

Much respect to Math Hoffa. For all those people that hated on him for his mistakes then they started to blackballed Math. I’m happy for him right now cause he kept his head up and stood focused and disciplined. Look how My Expert Opinion show is going straight up.

[@perrynnlynch1883]

Well said. Top comment.

[@MDAce150]

Guru seems to be such a grounded, humble and genuine person. It makes perfect sense that he was consistently around greatness on his way up. His energy is the type EVERYONE wants around them.

[@papalane2729]

Sound like Gu is describing my Pops. His fav group was Parliament & The Beatles, super cool, never yell. Salute to all the Fathers in the world!! Most important job in the world.

As an accountant who makes music as a hobby, watching this is mind blowing. I've watched hours of Guru talking and as soon as he said he had a strong family and his dad was an accountant it all clicked. Any young musician should watch this and take notes!

[@HDX21]

I'm 38 years old and was born and raised in DC Uptown NW, and to hear Young Guru talk about the sound of DC which is Go-Go music just warms my heart man. I love my city. I remember hearing how my aunts and uncles going to The Black Hole going to see Backyard, Rare Essence and Junkyard. And he's right as well our sound has always been duplicated or taken but never has been infiltrated that's why it's still one of the most purest genres of music that's still around to this day that's made by us. 202 All Day Baby.
