"Rockabye"

http://www.audiomack.com/embed2/na-3/track-1?btn=99cc00&bg=0707...

 

“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

dude you and anybody else can get a bizzy bone feature for as low as 1,000 $ but the verse will be incredibly shitty 

I feel if you pay him more you will get a better sounding verse 

OP-8 said:

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...

proof of Em and Psy Bitch 3 or gtfo

You're fucking stupid.  Just because Adele isn't hip-hop you don't want her on the album?  Really?  She's one of the most talented people in the music industry.

Fuck that, haha.

Alex M said:

Sounds like he wants Eminem on a Psycho Bitch 3. He wants to work with Jay- Z, Kanye, Adele, Nelly, Rick Ross, and everybody and their mother.

Lmao! here we go again! Cant wait to hear Em's next excuse as to why he didnt have time for a track with Tech.


a tie a said:

proof of Em and Psy Bitch 3 or gtfo

Damn Alex, pretty early for this thread don't ya think? lol, I know we have a little bit of info on it, but it's cool. Seriously though, where is this Em rumored for Psycho Bitch III coming from? The only way I see that happening is if Brotha Lynch is on it too, or maybe that's just wishful thinking, but I'd rather there not be another Psycho Bitch song 'n Em just be on a different track

Someone made a thread about this video but I don't feel like finding it.

Eminem has worked with underground rappers. i.e Booya Trice,DJ Kay Slay, The LOX,  Hush, Trick Trick..... not to mention his production for people like King Gordy. So yes he has worked with people a little under the radar. maybe not of recent, but his past shows that it might happen

More solos, keep the features lean and only use the verses that are up to par. Don't take no weak ass throw away verses from others. If it's not up to par, don't use it. And I'd like to see Em and Tech on some back and forth, multi-syllabic, rhyme patterns.
