He's dope but what can he give the mainstream audience that Bun B hasn't already? The thing that makes him special is his willingness to step outside the box, but I can't see how a major can capitalize off of that. Also I'm sure his fans dig the fact that he has balls. He should stay indie, he tried aligning himself with a famous rapper and that failed miserably.
