“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
"Tech was literally dancing in his seat with excitement about the new album and some of the featured artists on it. He couldn’t say who they were, but he did explain that the album will be broken up into three distinct sections — Fire, Water and Earth.
Fire, Tech said, will have darker tracks, but the CD will finish with a heavenly theme in the Earth portion.
“I’ve got some heavenly ‘We Are The World’ shit on this album, swear to God,” Tech said.
As for Water, Tech said he hasn’t quite decided, but possible themes might be partying or confusion." -DailyWIldCat.com 3/29/13

The more controversial an album cover the better if you ask me....look at "2Pac's "7 Day Theory " album cover...that ruffled feathers but people got over it.

SUMMARY:
"haters gonna hate"
Alex M said:"I gotta tell you guys something thats killing me but I'm not supposed to say these things but I need to talk to my fans on some real shit! My album cover for something else is making people who wanted to help push the album, back out cause the art is too extreme for them so, They suggested me change it to something more subtle and I feel the art so deeply that I cant and will not no matter what and, They say that if me and trav go forward with the album art they want no parts of it and they also feel that major buyers will feel the same! Its actually the deluxe version album art and personally I cant change what and how I feel in my heart! But its super frustrating cause I, Wanna give my fans their money's worth and I really don't think it is that bad to where it will scare folks away like they're saying! Its like take your strange off trav and tech and you will recieve unlimited amounts of money but that aint how we built this shit! They saying that black folks will surely shun me again and parents will not buy it for children due to my so called extreme art! It hurts! Im sorry I'm not normal for the folks who have to work my album but this is me and I WONT change that for no amount! Push with me you guys!" -Tech N9ne via Twitter

Anyone think it may be something like sacrilegious? Kali said on twitter "I was worried at first but I know my brother. & what he does" Can't figure out why else people would be so worked up over it haha

Someone on twitter asked if it was a burning cross which is a great guess.

I'm surprised he just didn't have Seven whip something up for them. This whole time I was guessing he had Seven make a beat for Psycho Bitches III that Em could fit on.
...I even thought there was an audio interview where he said he had an idea for PB3 and was gonna have Seven work on it. If that's true, sounds like Em won't be on that track (unless they discovered another producer used the horror sample they chose). I still bet the collab happens, but ~2 months to find a beat, write/record to it, and send it to Eminem is starting to push it.

I'm glad he's not changing it. Not that I would be upset if he did change it, but it's nice to see that tech is still handing out "fuck you"'s to the higher ups in the industry.

I bet that is the problem.
Because if tech bought the beat or if seven produced it for tech another rapper can't just use that beat (and sell it). I bet it's the sample.
