Just thought about what could have been achieved in that time frame.
He was doing guest spots with a bunch big mainstream names and making some of his own albums, sort of blowing up in the south. Of course he never really got internet famous until he hooked up with El-P. His PL3DGE album is really good (granted it was released in 2011) and the should've-been-hit from that album (Ready Set Go) has some extremely hot production.
