I think the industry generally didn't wanna put out such positivity as slum village and the like. There should always be a 'slum village, d12, pharcyde, Dilla, Tribe, Citizen Kane, De La Soul, Madlib, MF DOOM,' place in hip hop. But its more profitable to sell something else than young dudes having musical fun. These dudes my favourite emcees possibly. Made me question the way I like rap. That simplicity and off the dome messing around can be the best thing ever, its so personal and light hearted fun.
