Razor and Tie eventually picked up the album, and Paul shouldn't be so quick to dismiss it as a total failure. While Business may not be Paul's best work, it just may be the album that determines where listeners stand on the man and a litmus test on hip-hop in general. If you get it, then congratulations, you're a hip-hop head with savoir-faire. If you think it's just another collection of mediocre radio-ready rap, then go back to listening to 50 Cent.
But those in on the joke can rejoice in knowing there are some in the hip-hop universe who are witty, subversive and smart (when did being smart become so awful?) enough to try something besides the same old stuff -- even if that means coming up with a satire on the same old stuff to get their point across.
