What is a Juggalo? (Not a play on the ICP song) Tech has a lot of Juggalo fans and you'll see that at his shows. In some songs he makes references to them, off the top of my head I think of "This is Me" off of Everready

Cause you went out on Sam Goody on F.Y.E. with they money and you support us Strangas, Shadys, Psychopaths and Juggalos
Loseas, Shootas, College women and gutta hoes

Would I say he is a Juggalo? I don't know you'd have to ask him but he does have a lot of Juggalo Fans and mentions them in songs and has toured did shows with ICP, songs with Twiztid. So he definately associates with them but realistically I dont know if it matters. His music is still hot irregardless who he considers friends, fans or family.

I don't think it would REALLY matter if he is or isn't. I do however know he will say he appreciates all the support from the Juggalos but I have never seen him once on video saying he was one.

The dude did a tour with ICP and performed at their biggest event (The Gathering Of The Juggalos), layed down tracks with them as well and it's a well documented fact that Juggalos do make up a good portion of his fanbase.

Tech isn't a Juggalo, just simply a fan of em. He loves that so many of em support him and to him they're down as fuck, no matter what anyone says.
That's a real man right there, he has NEVER put Juggalos down in ANY shape or form, he would never put down his fans, nor does he ever have a reason to.

So is Tech a Juggalo?
As far as we know, no. He has never said he was one in any song or any recorded video, though he has stated that he does very much respect them.

Also, has anyone else noticed that Tech picks his words very carefully in interviews when he's asked that question?

He does choose his words carefully .. but he has to because of people like us who would over analyze it. If he says he is a Juggalo then the other fans or new fans may take it the wrong way. If he says no I'm not then Juggalos might be offended and since they're some of his most loyal and long time fans I doubt he would want to alienate them.

Yeah when people ask him this question he always says he's down with them. But he picks his words very carefully because people are retarded enough to easily take things the wrong way. Shit, I just recycled what he said didn't I? Fuck me

Tech is affiliated with ICP about as much as the Ying Yang Twins are.
No, just simply no.

Just done a song or two with a few of the artists.
There's been 12 Psychopathic/Strange song collaborations, with Tech being featured on 6 of them, a little more than a few.

Bodies Fall - Prozak (Tech N9ne / Blaze Ya Dead Homie / The ROC)
Bury 'Em All - Twiztid (Tech N9ne / Krizz Kaliko / Potluck)
Fading - Prozak (Twiztid)
Keep It Simple - Blaze Ya Dead Homie (Kutt Calhoun)
In The Dark - Twiztid (Prozak)
Insane - Prozak (Insane Clown Posse)
Madhouse - Insane Clown Posse (Tech N9ne)
Need Some Help - Twiztid (Tech N9ne / Krizz Kaliko / Prozak)
Omg (Remix) - Twiztid (Prozak)
Peek A Boo - Krizz Kaliko (Twiztid)
Serial Killa - Twiztid (Tech N9ne)
Thug Pit - Insane Clown Posse (Tech N9ne)

A half a dozen songs between two labels shows you're pretty goddamn tight. Not to mention Tech performing at numerous Gatherings, inviting Blaze on the '07 Strange Noize tour and even opening for ICP in 2003.

Plus directly referencing Juggalos in two songs "This is Me" and "Bout Ta' Bubble" - a song chosen to be the first single off his first album in years - also shows an obvious connection.

ICP defines a "Juggalo" as anyone who's down with what they do and not even necessarily about enjoying the music. Tech is obviously appreciative and active with Psychopathic Records and it's fans thus making the answer to the topic question an obvious yes.

Also calm down Natey boy. A "Juggalo" isn't a gang affiliation it's simply a word ICP coined their fans and people who support what they do.

Oh and by the way, the fact that Tech just signed two horrorcore acts, one consisting of a dude who wears a giant Hatchetman and paints his face like a clown with horns, it's kind of obvious he realizes Juggalos make up a huge part of his income.
