I think slug's outlook on it is "if people can't dissassociate themselves from music enough to get wound up by not being told when he's a character and when he's 'keeping it real', they have problems" That's the sort of impression I got from an interview I read. He said that hip hop was storytelling to him, and storytelling doesn't always mean autobiography.
Gotta say that seems inconsistant to me - all his work with Deep Puddle Dynamics is pretty much emotion and thought put into song rather than storytelling, but you can't begrudge him that. He's dope like hemp trousers
