I am just not feeling Tech like I used to.
I think he is tryin too hard to make it big now a days. I mean I still LOVE Tech, I always will cuz his shit moves me no other artist can. But with his new look (The cut hair, the chains ect...) I just dont really feel like he is bein his true TECH N9NE... Mr. FUCK THE INDUSTRY, "FUCK YOU Im gonna do my shit the way I wanna do it and fuck you your still gonna love me and buy my shit"
A couple of gurls I know, who are TOTALLY into mainstream rappers like Luda, Jeezy, Eminem ect. ect. They dont know ANY rap songs unless they are on TV... EXCEPT Tech N9ne, because I put them up on him like 2 years ago. And they absolutly love them. Because he always so much different, and never gave a fuck about his appearance or attitude. Then I showed them the Bout To Bubble video and they were completely dissapointed. As soon as it was over their first question was "What the Hell happened to him?" They werent at all diggin him, simply for the fact they he changed his hair, he was tryin to dress more poppy, and wearin his chain like all other big rappers.
This along with just seein the types of songs he put on his new album, just makes me feel like he is now tryin TOO hard to make it big and is kinda willing to sacrafice pieces of himself to do it...
Now dont get me wrong... Everready I feel is the SHIT... He comes hard with all his rhymes, but I just feel like it is lackin ALOT of his old darkness type of feel. His only real dark songs on the album are Come Gangster and My World, ROOT a lil bit. But really everything else is kind of club kinda hits. But where are the "Trapped in a Psychos Body", "Sinister Tech", "Tormented", "Cursed" kind of songs? Thats what I was really lookin forward to hearin on his new album, that kind of shit.
Now some may argue, he has evolved, just like everyone else, and his style will always change with time. Which is true, but the darkness is what made me fall in love with him, the extreme diversity in his rhymes is what attracted myself and so many others to his music in the first place, sort of a window into another world people could step into outside of all the bullshit mainstream rap shit.
I just feel like his lack on that on this new album, and his whole appearance change has possibly made him not so much lose fans, but definatly questioning his heart in the game. Iv played his album for so many people, some long time fans like me, and some who have just been turned onto him recently, and the concensus is, is that he is doin much club pop kinda shit....
This post is based mostly of just what Iv seen in others reactions. Im not really sure how to feel about it. Anywayz go ahead and start with the bashing....
