“The beats sound nothing like anything you’ve ever heard me on. The features that I’m going for are something you would never imagine. All I can say about it now is that it’s a very human album. What I mean by that is that it’s contradictory. On one song I say, ‘The saint is ours’, like we’re in the saint’s corner and then I have another song called ‘I’m Not A Saint’. It’s so beautiful because the King, the Clown, and the G are still present on this album.

There’s no apologies in what I’m saying. I don’t mind that it contradicts itself because that’s what people do.  The album is everywhere. It feels like it’s Hell, Purgatory and Heaven all over again. I’m telling stories that I’ve never told – that I was afraid to tell on some songs. It’s super personal and I’ve got a big chip on my shoulder again. It’s always been there, but it’s getting bigger having to prove to fans and critics that we ain’t goin’ nowhere.” -Tech N9ne from SM blog 2/8/13

I can understand what you mean by that and everyone is entitled to thier opinion..and when i reflect on everready like you said i find it to be a true damn good solo album....but i also would like to say that what he does may be off the wall and ive learned to never doubt that man..because quite often when i hear newly released music i may not like it at first...but the oddity of the beat or the message grows on me and i think the shit is hard as ever and it feels me full of pride to listen to shit that most dont because its to "wierd" for them..but im a pretty strange fuckin person...but fuck me, in some ways i could see room for improvement, but hey it comes natural to him. im not worried one bit...and just thinking about knowing you are the shit and that if people came to you they would gain popularity wold be the coolest fucking thing in the world to me!!!!! So Tech, do you because only youcan do it and you do it best lol..

Nas/DMX/Mystikal already confirmed that they'd do it and Tech said he had beats for them ready so I can see that happening since Tech says he has to also see them on the beat and considering he still has the unused beats he'll do that. Other than that, I have a feeling that most mainstream rappers don't have much bureaucratic power. So even if Tech is willing to pay a rapper for a verse he'd have to pick people who have the most control over there own career. So probably Jay-Z/Kanye and even Eminem could do it since Jay-Z and Eminem have there own labels and Kayne for example is currently like Jay-Z's right hand man so he could most likely do it too.

The problem however, is that Tech said he wanted Jay-Z and Kanye for Kabosh and Eminem has never done a feature for any rapper that wasn't mainstream and in my opinion was just being nice when he said he'd make a song with Tech, so none of those would be in my opinion likely features for his next LP. What he could do though I doubt it, would be to feature the confirmed artists that didn't make it to all 6's and 7's and other big name rappers he's already featured such as Twista,Busta Rhymes,Kendrick Lamar, B.O.B, E-40. Then what he can do is add in features from his best strange music artists like Mayday,Brotha Lynch Hung, Ces cru, Jay Rock, Stevie Stone. Mix that together with his regular Krizz Kaliko and Kutt Calhoun features and he could have a really, really good album that could then top all 6's and 7's.

Again though another problem I see is that not only would Tech have to see Twista and Busta on a track let alone any one else he might feature, everything for that reason is still up in the air. In my opinion if Tech wasn't so picky or just tried harder to buy more beats he'd then have more to work with and more he saw fitting for the right features. The thing is that Tech doesn't put enough care into the production as he could.

If Tech tried just a little harder he could do obviously a lot more, but I doubt it. Most of Techs issues has always been because of his lack of musical effort. Tech's ability to make better songs and have better features has always mostly been because he's doesn't obviously like to spend a lot of money on beats.

I mean look at it this way, If some unknown dude like Crucified can get a Bizzy Bone feature " http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRJ7NY_-UBw ". Then someone like Tech can easily get a lot of features like we've never thought possible.. It's just that Tech doesn't want to pay for a feature that he doesn't feel needs to be paid for and so he wants to be shown love by them and have those rappers reach out to him instead.

So in my opinion, I bet the next album is going to be a lot like a mix between All 6's and 7's/Welcome to Strangeland/Klusterfuk. I'm just not sure how that would turn out because his best effort was when he tried his best to get good beats and had only a few features like he did on Everready. I just think with how he's always trying to make everything sound like something you've never heard before that he's not likely to feature the same rapper again for another LP and isn't going to try harder to make a balance between what sounds new and what sounds good.

So in the end I bet his next album is probably going to have a few more tracks than usual that people will end up skipping. I also bet that just like with K.O.D and All 6's and 7's he's going to end up having songs that didn't make it to the album that are actually better than other songs on the actual album that seemed more like filler in comparison to for example the lost-scripts/bonus tracks.

I don't know, I just think Tech needs to spend more time and money on an album for once...

holy essay paper batman!! gtfo

I disagree that it's a bad business move, Klusterfuk sold like what first week? i don't remember but wasnt it like 12,000-16,000? with barely anything spent on promotion? I think that makes a lot of business sense. if u can sell that much 'n barely have to spend a dollar to get that return. Idk what the studio time costs but I'm sure Tech at least can make all that money back

Michael Bliss said:

That makes sense but at the same time makes none.

I mean my logic still says album for several reasons. We've been told about an album coming October, yet heard NOTHING on an EP in October. Who's to say it's not a mixtape, why EP or album??

Also sorry to do this but Alex saying Tech dropped 2 EP's back to back are wrong. It went Lost Scripts EP, Gates Mixed Plate LP, Seepage EP in 2010. 2 EP's back to back is fucking pointless, he may as well have saved the Klusterfuk tracks, put them with the "new EP's" tracks and done a few more and we would have had an LP release instead. It's a pointless business move that wastes more money than it makes.

The fact Tech did A6A7 and then 5 months later came WTS, however he only started work on WTS in August so it took 3 months. Tech CAN do an album in the time given to him.


Alex M said:

He said in all his interviews that his next album is coming out in late October but I think it will be pushed to 2013 and we will get this before late October.

Teccanina4life said:

so is this EP going to be the one coming out in late october.. or is that his LP?

How much time do you think he spent in there for this EP? 20 Hours? 2,000 dollars.

Yeah, but chances are he still gotta pay a pretty penny to have somebody put all the Music together and finalize it maybe its cheaper then 90-100 now with his own studio i wouldn't be surprised if it ran him about 50 bucks an hour to have somebody man his studio but now he's going to be paying rent and if he hasn't already paid off all the equipment hes got that too. Not like he couldn't afford it. Lol if tech n9ne was ever like "fuck i need like 10 grand real quick" all he would have to do is drop an EP done deal!  Its funny to think that he produces words that can bring him in bucks.
