Saul williams remind me of that reggae group, Mystique GP, cause they both speaks real truth in the lyrics.

this is really sick, and I love all his shout outs especially Allen Ginsberg, James Baldwin and G.I. Gurdjieff, by why Ayn Rand?

Fantastic.
I admire his energy, most of all.

Excellent question! Indeed, it is impossible to point out someone elses ego without using your own. The ego, as an idea, is what separates the artist from the critic. My commentary on Saul's "poetry" is coming from the perspective of a critic. This is the central theme in T.S. Eliot's "The Sacred Wood". According, to drone81 he is "wrong" but I respectfully disagree.
