That was his comeback album after years of irrelevance. Similar to The Razor's Edge and Painkiller in that all those represented industry veterans going for a final big score before the grunge era.

I actually have to agree with this. It seems like their newer albums have been made up of songs that they kept locked away in the vault from the 80s.

But that's jazz. I do grant you that BB adopted a lot of psychedelic flavor because he was trying to reach the kids at that time. And he was black which automatically made him cooler than a white guy of the same age.

OP the perfect test for your theory is about to come up.

Both El-P and Killer Mike were 39 for RTJ2, they'll both be 40 (or 41) by the time RTJ3 comes out.

Sufjan Stevens turned 40 this year so his next release will probably correct this.
