I just wanna say that they are Fan-frigging-tastic! Their marketability says so much about them. Then, the fact that they SHOW UP...not just physically, but they show up and DELIVER a great show, cd...whatever. They inspired a generation and shall go down in music, world and cultural history.
I am so weary of people talking about how they SOLD OUT. On the underground scene BEP set the bar pretty damn high and rock the world with their lyrics and beats. People were bootlegging their art left and right. I think the made a strategic decision to go mainstream and people should shut the hell up because afterall, they have to eat just like we do.
Hey! Them is my PEEPS! I just reconnected with my friend today who's man does beats with them. Did I ever tell you the Christmas Party Story?

Thanks BEP and thank Ms. Blaze.
