The "W" I admit was not up to par, but c'mon man Iron Flag and 8 Diagrams was dope!

Your argument about who they think they are makes no sense. In hip hop if the artist don't hold themselves in high esteem then they have no business being in hip hop because hip hop is about having great pride in one's self.

More artists should be doing mystery box album projects like this. You're probably the kinda guy that would lose their shit if Pete Rock did an exclusive art film project like Jean-Michel Basquiat done before or if 9th Wonder posed nude for a Annie Leibovitz exhibit.

The art world is becoming more open to hip hop music and culture because they see the value that you don't. You come off as one of those selfish myopic backpacker types who just want to keep MF Doom, Jonwayne, Madlib to yourself, but never want them to blow up beyond other fans like you.
