Lil B, on the other hand, is basically unknown in the mainstream. His moronic and trite lyrics about skullfucking bitches and so forth reaches a slightly larger percentage of the population than the riffage of hardcore morons Anal Cunt did.<br /> <br /> File under who cares. It's funny when rapheads bust on psych heads for listening to a tired genre of music. Rap is 30+ years old, kids. It's about as revolutionary at this point as your mom owning a vibrator. No one with any sense cares about your rebellion anymore.</div></blockquote> <br /> Lil B is in his own genre, one that noone in 2011 can fully grasp. Arthur Russell was basically unknown in the mainstream too. "Paint" and "Rain in England" is that yet-unlistenable music from the future. </div></blockquote> <br /> Arthur Russell is still basically unknown in the mainstream. He's a pet concern of a small number of hipsters.<br /> <br /> I don't think the phrase "succeeded commercially on a huge scale" is a vague phrase.
