The video for Gang Starr’s “Founders Remix” of “Glowing Mics,” which previously appeared on the instrumental version of the iconic rap group’s 2020 LP One of the Best Yet, has been released.
DJ Premier’s homage to his late duo partner Guru, who died in 2010, was featured on that album, Gang Starr’s first since 2003’s The Ownerz. Premier recruited rapper Big Shug, one of the MCs who often collaborated with the duo as part of their Gang Starr Foundation, for the “Founders Remix.”
In the new video, Guru’s son Keith “KC” Casim takes over for his late father, as he did in the video for One of the Best Yet single “Bad Name.”
On Friday, all streaming platforms will have “Glowing Mics (Founders Remix)” available to stream and buy. One of the Best Yet (with the original “Glowing Mics”) is now available in an instrumental version.
