Marco Polo is back with a new music video for “G.U.R.U.” which features rapper Talib Kweli and DJ Premier.  Serving as a tribute to the late great emcee, Kweli demonstrates his crafty wordplay by lacing his bars with references to Gangstarr, Guru’s friendship with controversial producer Solar and so much more.  The visual for “G.U.R.U.” is just as impressive as it showcases Talib performing to the camera as vintage clips of the legendary Hip Hop artist quickly cut in and out on the background.  Polo’s new collaborative song is featured on the producer’s forthcoming PA2: The Director’s Cut project releasing on November 12.
