I thought it was all about the music?
Unless you think Tech's music has suffered since juggalos have started coming to shows....then you dont have shit to bitch about. I dont see you at shows......the last 5 shows in KC or around....you said you were going. But never saw ya. Thousands of "og" fans have managed to see past the juggalo antics at shows and enjoy themselves.
Why do you care who else likes Tech's music? Is it Tech's or strange's fault that he's got a juggalo fan base now? Where are his real fans? OH......sitting at home because they can't handle not being recognized as "og" fans. Juggalos have been coming to shows for a couple of years now. What do you expect? Want Tech to start saying FUCK YALL.......my "og" fans dont like you so stop coming to my shows.
You're preaching to the choir here JL...i cringe each time i see some juggalos do some stupid shit. I don't like a lot of their antics. I think a lot of them are degenerate assholes and stupid bitches. Never will you see "og" tech n9ne fans launching each other into a garbage dumpster in the back alley of a show. But you just have to smile and turn the other way.
About Project Deadman.....i haven't heard a single note of any of their fucking songs.....i have no opinion on them as artists. But Mark Cerami, Travis O'Guin and Aaron Yates see something in them for their fans. I'm not going to make my judgement on the album until i hear it. It's probablly wack, and I'm prepared for that. But there must be a demand for this shit, so whatever. I'm not sitting here "supporting it" i'm explaining it and nobody on here has heard anything from their album to be able to judge it.
Who else is Strange going to sign or help out from kansas city? SS, Kutt, Kaliko, BG, Vertigo, hobo tone.......and a few others who Tech and Strange have opened their arms to from KC. Vertigo was nothing before they started doing shows with Tech. And they'll tell you that. 4 dope mc's but nobody even heard of them until a group dropped out of a show in columbia 2 and a half years ago and Ground Zero called up the crew and they made a b-line for columbia. Oh and BG & Hobo Tone, nobody outside of KC knew about them until they went on tour with tech last summer. Now both of them have at least a decent regional fan base. Empire, RDV's, all in large part have Tech and Strange to thank because of their success....limited or not.
So i ask again who else should Strange look at to sign from Kansas City? Fat Tone? he's hot right now, but so is his past. There is a lot of tight rappers from KC, i will support that til i rest, but half of them aren't disciplined enough to join a label and live life on the road, and i'm not talkin about just goin down to Joplin and doing shows every month. And the other half probablly dont want to fuck with strange for whatever reason they have. Everyone looks to Strange for a handout it seems like. Why dont they sign me? Fuck them, they aint done shit for Kansas City. Fuck all that noise, only an idiot would believe that. So who do you think needs to be put on next?
JL...you're one of the last peoples opinions i respect around here because you tell it like it is without blinders to the world. But to think Tech's music has changed because of juggalos is fucking ridiculous. You're a fan of Tech's music....not of who his record company signs a distribution deal with. Sorry, I went off on a tangent there, but I've had a lot of this shit on my mind for a minute and needed to let it out. Because JL, you aren't the first person I've heard criticize Tech and Strange because of juggalo fans.
