Quality, not Quantity..
Recently a thread came up regarding Tech's break between Absolute Power and Everready, which got me thinking, quality, not quantity.
Most artists put out LP's every couple of years or so, and it gives them enough time to get features, and the quality of their songs, and verses up.
Even though people might get all pissy for this, I'm just going to use him as an example...
Lil Wayne came out with The Carter 2 in December of 2005, and didn't drop The Carter 3 till August 2008. Within that time he was able to make the album out to be whatever he wanted. He wasn't rushed, he didn't have to move on without other peoples verses, he put out the LP he wanted. The success of that album doesn't need to be reiterated, because everyone here knows or has heard most of that album.
It's my opinion that Tech needs to start doing something similar. I think everyone would agree that the wait would be worth it if Tech dropped an album like Everready every 2 or 3 years. I would be more then happy with a bunch of Collabo's albums since I know he treats them like mix tapes anyway, but I think its time for him to slow down and take his time on his own albums.
If he wants Correy Taylor on his album, then he needs to give him time. If he wants Twista on his album, then he needs to give him time. etc. etc. etc. The more Tech rushes, the more we end up being frustrated when songs don't make the cut, or verses don't get sent back in time, because we all know it happens much to often.
What does everybody else think? Should Tech actually take more time on his albums, or does nobody really care as long as they have something new to play?
My opinion should be clear based off my earlier statements, but I'm curious to hear what my fellow fans think.

I didn't notice this response until today, so I got something to say...
Who said shit about me trying to show brains? I'm probably one of the most literate people on this site (no offence to anyone, just saying it) and you point out the one fact that I used a slang term after an intellectual one. Sorry for trying to place words on the page that your ignorant ass would understand and relate too. From this point forward, I'll only post completely intellectual and literate, comprehensive comments that are loaded with perfect punctuation. Would that keep you from pointing out my faults? I sure hope so. Fucker.
Pimp Limp said:ya and he followed it up with homie. so all the brains this kid was trying to show off basically ended in nothing.
and you dont even know how to spell the word "right". so shush PJ.
Tainted Saint said:If he keeps putting out solid albums, he can put one out every 6 months and I'll be happy. If Tech starts rushing them and they start sounding like shit, then that's when his fans will let him know he needs to lay off the amount of releases. I, just like Nick, am always on the lookout for new Tech shyte, so anytime I find something I'm happy.
As for Pimp Limp, I'm going to reiterate what everyone else has said, how do you know that an album's gonna sound awful after ONE song? That’s just an asinine comment to make homie.
