Stone's Throw Records

Indie hip hop heads-Check out Stone's Throw (If you don't already know about it). Is Madvilliany the greatest indie hip-hop record of all time? I can't say. Top 5, easy though. ST is the home of indie smash MF Doom, Madlib, and J. Dilla (rest in peace). Finally, you mix in the fresh James Pants LP, and you have the start of one of the most promising indie labels in recent memory.

I listened to several tracks, that was good stuff. In the main track they go on a simile loop that was a little loopy and weak, but the rest of the tracks were really strong. From what I could tell, they wear masks in all of their videos. Do you know why that is? Where do they stand with regard to hitting the jackpot that is mainstream and Bet 105th and Park (That's one of the best hip-hop references I know)?
