And their new success is much deserved because Tyler
learned their lesson: just shuttup and make beats and
let people rap to them.

The problem was all of the fuss; Tyler's obsession with
alienating his fans, who they are being compared to,
pop culture, etc...the pressure was too much and their
post Yonkers-2011 projects were all awful.

2012 approaches and things change-

Hodgy has that mixtapes (featuring all non OF-beats,
easily the best beats he's ever rapped over)

The Mixtape Volume 2 comes out, featuring some organic
OF sounding music, no responding to anyone, little bit
of whining, little fussing

The results? A solid effort (not in the 'Bastard' or
'Earl' class, but solid) that people purchase and enjoy
