![]() ![]() I didn't even bother to check who the opening act was for Tech N9ne. that all changed when I realized I had made the biggest rookie mistake ever. ![]() Tech N9ne - Inspirational Rapper by Angus Bateyĭespite my affinity for his music and overall story I was still torn on attending the concert since it was out in the middle of nowhere about a half hour away and I would probably have to leave straight from work to get there on time. I'd suggest you school yourself on his story by reading this excellent article detailing why aside from Kanye and Jay-Z, he made the most money in Hip Hop touring in 2008. Nine albums later (all independently released), he's more popular than ever and continues to have a very dedicated underground following. ![]() He's one of those artists who has always fought an uphill battle because "the industry" (record execs, the suits) didn't think the mainstream would like his music. In general, it's hard not to be supportive of Tech N9ne because he has truly made his own success. Reagardless, those three tracks give a good enough representation of his unique sound. I intentionally posted his track Blown Away too because it is mostly a diss record about how there aren't any good performers in Hip Hop and some of the big Hip Hop acts have a sense of entitlement because of their records' monetary success even "when their stage show is horrible" - Tech N9ne. Those are three of his milder tracks lyrically, which is why I posted them instead of a few of my other favorites that may not be as appropriate lyrically.

My first reaction was that I was interested in seeing his show, but until the day of the event was on the fence about going. A couple weeks ago, I was asked by a couple friends if I was interested in going to see Tech_N9ne in concert. Slaughterhouse at The Silo in Reading, PA Nov 13th ![]()
