Should Slacker really have been the single?

I mean i dunno, I think there are so many way better songs on that album. Pretty much every song except for She Devil and Biancas and Biatraces are better then Slacker in my opinion. I think I'm a Playah, Im'a Tell, Absolute Power, or Industry is Punks coulda been better singles. Eh, just my 2 cents. The song slacker isn't the same kinda flow tech usualy has.

They made Slacker the single because it has more of a mainstream rap sound than anyother song on the album. A party anthem type. I dont think Imma Tell would have pulled off the same result, i really couldnt imagine people in the club goin off on Imma Tell, which by the way is still slated to be the next single and possiblly a video!

Yeah.....with mainstream music you have to hit with something easy to hear first...then once you have them interested you hit em with the "true" single. Hence using "Slacker" to get their attention...then wowing them with "Imma Tell". Its all business and politics. Ain't about what the tightest song is.

Yeah, probably the best choice for video. It could get Mtv spins if it got a chance. I know people would relate.

I REALLY think Ima Playa should be the next single. That has club hit ALLLLLLLL over it.

At first I didn't really like Slacker but it grew on me. Thats how most mainstream songs are, just catchy. I think I'ma playah DEFINATLEY is catchy and is tight as fuck as well. I really think that if there is a song on the CD that could blow Tech up, it would be I'ma Playah.

Let me say tha whole album is str8 hard to me. Biancas and beatrice is raw because it's different in my opinion. I can see where tha hook can be annoying to someone though. I do agree I'mma playa would probably blow Tech N9ne up, str8 club hit and gets you all caught up; And mane what's the deal wit every speakin on Slackers ? This song is raw. I do agree he's not flowin as good on it as he usually does, but tha beat is sick. Tha video is kindda wack too. I was kindda upset when I saw that video as creative as Tech N9ne is, but I've seen worst videos then that played. It should at least get played on Rap city. What I also think would get peoples attenion is Guns will Bust.
