Gimel “Young Guru” Keaton is arguably one of the greatest engineers in hip-hop music history.
This past year was nothing short of amazing for Guru, with the release of Jay-Z’s album 4:44 and the success of Rapsody’s Roc Nation debut Laila’s Wisdom.
Despite Guru’s success and extensive resume, many may not know his roots began in the small state of Delaware.
