Gangstarr Foundation is a movement established in '93 by the legendary Guru & Big Shug, along with DJ Premier & original members Group Home & Jeru The Damaja. Somewhat member Bahamadia was also around from '93 to '96.

After all parties went on to release critically acclaimed , in some cases even classic, albums, Group Home stepped a bit in the background, and both Bahamadia & Jeru went their own ways. However, Bumpy Knuckles & M.O.P. were elevated to full member status, Afu Ra (who came along with Jeru) remained close and Hannibal Stax (F.A.B.I.D./Fabidden), as well as NYG'z (formerly Operation Ratification), hauled over from Guru's, by-then-defunct, Illkid Records, while Krumb Snatcha, Blaq Poet & Smiley The Ghetto Child (by way of Group Home) became affiliated along the way too, albeit loosely. 

These days sees original members Jeru & Group Home performing regularly under the Foundation banner, keepin Guru's legacy alive.

This is a stab at something that should've happened, but never came to fruition: an album comprised of stand-alone tracks, as well as collaborations between the many members of this foundation -both original or later additions-, predominantly produced by DJ Premier, but Mike Rone (F.A.B.I.D.), True Master (Wu-Tang) and the late, great, Guru turn in work from behind the boards too, as well as DJ Idem. On top of that, the ill-as-f**k Pete Rock remix of "The Militia" is included too.
