Sickology 101 followed in 2009, adding Bone Thugs-N-Harmony's Krayzie Bone, Chino XL, and Big Scoob into the mix. Kompany featured an extensive roster of guests, including frequent collaborators Krizz Kaliko, Yukmouth, and Kutt Calhoun, and debuted in the Top 50 of the Billboard 200.
#Tech n9ne new cd collabos series#
His sixth LP overall, Misery Loves Kompany would be the start of a successful series of collaborative albums that attracted both up-and-coming and high-profile guests from across genres. That’s going to be the difference.Prolific Kansas City rapper and head of the Strange Music label Tech N9ne released his first Tech N9ne Collabos effort in 2007. I got to rap harder than “Drama” now, I got to rap harder than “Fish in A Pita.” The only thing that happened is I’m just going to keep rapping harder and harder. Has stepping back and looking at Dominion changed your approach on Strange Reign at all? It was his song and he gave it to me so I told him to go ahead and take it, but It was hard, because I love that song. That’s a good one, it’s one for the ladies. It was actually supposed to be on but I told him we needed to keep some gems for Strange Reign and he said “I want that Gem.” “Technology” was going to be on the next collabos but we ended up putting on JL’s record. I gave them a little preview of the end of the last CD. Everyone want to hear “Cold Piece Of Work.” It’s me and JL and Krizz is on there too. Thirty something tracks you know what I’m saying? They said we should hold some. If it was up to me it would have been all of them on one. What went into the decision to make two Collabos? Some of the songs originally intended for Dominion will be on Strange Reign. This time Scoob sent me one, it’s gonna be on some Rogue Dog shit it’s called “Leggo.” Gangster shit over here. I might do another, I don’t know.ĭid you do Strange Reign the same way as Dominion in having the artist send you songs? There’s two more, I gotta make sure I still like them. It sounds like some Meters meets Brady Bunch.
I know there’s one I like called ‘Happen.’ It’s way different. I did all my solos before the tour so I’m going to listen again and make sure I like them all.
We got something like 25 songs so we’re done for real. We’re just making sure we got the right ones. How far along is the project? Any finishing touches? Strange Reign will pick up where Dominionleft off, showcasing the depth and range of the entire Snake & Bat roster though a bevy of Strictly Strange collaborations.īetween the title, the art direction, the release date, and the snippet of “Cold Piece of Work” from Dominion we already have a grasp on the details, but just to be sure we’re up to speed, we sat down with Tech to fill in the blanks. As if Tech N9ne’s return to Red Rocks–with damn near the whole label along for the ride–wasn’t enough, the October 13th show will also mark the release of the second collabos album of the year, Strange Reign!
