Some artists have been able to reach mass fame, like Andy Warhol, and still remain edgy - by doing what he does everywhere else for Frat TV, Shag has lost his cool. Personally, I like the style as much as I ever did, but socially, I'm not going to be dropping the "Shag" name in conversations, or pointing out what's on my wall at parties.
