Strange Music is not looking for the next big song that will last for a short time and fade away like most hits. Tech has maintained a committed fan base. Of course, one of his biggest fan bases is in Kansas City, not only because he performs live so often and maintains his business here, but also by writing lyrics about Kansas City. If you want to be the hip hop president, you have to campaign.
Campaign he does. Tech tours constantly and as Korey Lloyd pointed out, he hits unlikely places. With many artists, fans will see them pass over Kansas City for bigger venues like Chicago or St.
His dedication to connecting with fans no matter how popular the town or big the state helps maintain a dedicated following. I want to know. Spiritually I want to know, mentally I want to know.
With 11 studio albums, a record label producing talented artists like Kutt Calhoun and Krizz Kaliko and a dedicated fan base, Tech proves to be a Kansas City success story. His ambitious drive to perfecting the art he is passionate about and dedication to being true to himself and his hometown shows he will keep striving towards excellence. You have to push for it. If you believe in it, you will achieve it.

While his homeboys were getting caught up, Tech was perfecting his rhyme skills, gaining a reputation as a dope rapper and dancer. At 17, he left home to move in with an aunt. He got his first taste of freedom but with it, came another view of the dark side. But during this time, he never stopped dancing and rhyming and his skills attracted a round-the-way girl named Tanya, who invited him to join her at a rap convention in New Orleans.
Through Tanya, who later would rise to fame as the rapper Sole, he got his first big break. The early break led to him hooking up with longtime collaborator Icy Rock , who turns out some of the dopest tracks on Anghellic. But it couldn't prepare him for the long hard road out of hell. With every industry inroad--and there were plenty--came major setbacks. During this time, he hooked up with an old homeboy, a producer named Don Juan , Anghellic' s other wiz kid.
He started experimenting even further, rhyming backwards and putting out independent singles with dope dealing money, anything to stay in the game. Tech made his next leap of faith, signing with Quincy Jones' Qwest Records , a label that would follow the same path as Perspective. While on Qwest Records, Tech was working on what was supposed to be his debut album, Be Warned which was supposed to be released in By the time he was finished recording "Twisted" which is on Anghellic , the album Be Warned was complete.
However, Qwest decided to shelf the album, leaving Tech to languish. He would later want to get out of the deal, and that's where Travis O'Guin came in. Chino XL and Crooked I]. Strange Music Box [feat. Brotha Lynch Hung and Krizz Kaliko].
