Hip-Hop needs to get over this ignorant mind set of having to be popular or else not doing anything.

That's why I mentioned Oddisee. I know he's not at Kast level. But there is nothing that says Kast and older acts can't operate accordingly. If they're artists and need to make music then it should be about the music not about if it's going to sell or how it may hurt their legacy.

All those bullshit Neil Young albums haven't hurt his legacy.

Hip-Hop really needs to mature past this mind set. Not very thing is about sales and popularity.
