Don't worry, people will soon grow tired of this bling-bling materialism gangster shit and we can again go through a period of rebirth for hip hop as a whole.
So don't expect to come to a show to hear the same-old-same-old. We wanna change the face of hip-hop and do it with attitude. We wanna exorcise the demons.
