but if you're going to spend time in the studio making birthday girl anyway, why not promote the hell out of it? make that shit sell.

and yeah, honestly, i wish they would drop a few commercial gems on there. make cool ones, but make shit that people will listen to.

then they get that national spotlight, then start showing us the level of talent they posses as artists, but get to that stage where they can show the world what they can do, especially since they're on nb fucking c every night. otherwise, what's the point of that shit?

same as 'kast or kanye, blend the art in there nice and smooth and subtly, don't hit us over the head with it. unless you wanna grind through a few more albums just for the okp community.

anyway, just my $.02
