Is the reason Tech hasnt blown up yet because?

[TheVille31]

he raps too fast for the average listener? Rap is so slow these days...so simple.

I mean if you think about it what fast rappers are in the mainstream these days? Twista no, bone no....etc etc....Luda is the only semi fast rapper in the mainstream. (at least i cant think of anyone, and its 3am).



Speak on it siccness.

 

[rmillerpacers31]

Its a lot more than that. Tech needs to dumb down his lyrics to be on the same level as some soulja boy shit. Hopped up out the bed turned my swag on. Whats up? yea whats up? im getting moneyyyyyyyy!!

that shit is too simple and all these uneducated ppl are loving it.

Flo-rida raps in a bit of a up tempo flow.

 

[TheVille31]

its just something they can sing along too...you gotta see it for wut it is...club, teen and female music.


most people cant keep up with tech let alone sing along with him...


gettin blazed plus sickology plus the sicc makes you think of some shit

very true...there is one lmao

i hate his shit it sounds the same i wish i could do my impression i do whenever someone mentions him....all his rhymes are the same pattern its just hilarious

Tech isn't mainstream cuz he doesn't do mainstream music. When he tries he fails. He needs to just do him, he has a hardcore following and as I do understand the need to broaden your fanbase, you don't wanna alienate the ones you do have to get others and I think he realizes that. It will take a dramatic change in rap music in general for Tech to be popular in the mainstream.

 

[TheVille31]

Amen...i guess slacker, bout to bubble, etc etc are def failures....

 

[Defy]

yes they are. Slacker was an obvious attempt at getting Eminem fans and Bout to Bubble was supposed to be a radio friendly jam that didn't make it to the radio.


perhaps he gets alot of play in his hometown, but he doesn't get shit outside of that.

 

[TheVille31]

no, he will get played for about a month but no top 10 or regular play time...people in kc gave up on him after absolute power...oh yeah and goin to concerts and gettin stuck around stinky juggalos with mosh pits.

I wish they played Tech on the radio in KC. The only Tech song that ever got radio play consistently was Let's Get Fucked Up by the RDV's

 

[Defy]

just out of curiosity does KC radio play other underground artists?

They have a section called undergound heat on one station, but its at like 8-9pm and i think thats the only time any local music gets played. I dont even know if they do that daily either.

 

[michampin]

they do it friday and saturday from midnite to 1am

 

[Defy]

I guess that's what I like about bay area radio, they'll play bay underground shit but they don't get any more diverse than that. At least in LA they'd play shit from all over the country, but pretty much only signed established artists.

I wasn't sure good looking out on the info I never listen to raido anymore for the fact that they never play local stuff

 

[michampin]

yea same here they dont even play tech unless dude is gonna play there summerjam or something like that

 

[TheVille31]

yup...when i was down in houston they hella played underground shit...thats one reason tech hasnt got any love...he cant even get any play in his own town...


btw rmiller its alive got hella play and was on the top 10 for a long time if i remember correctly...then again its alive is one of the best songs by tech ever

 

[Asmodeus]

Bout Ta Bubble N Jellysickle got some decent radio play out here for the first 2 weeks or so after they were debuted.

I forgot about its alive. I think thats the only SOLO track that 103.3 gave any real radio play. I always hear people saying they know Tech from I'm A Playa, but I dont ever remember hearing that in heavy rotation on the radio.

 

[TheVille31]

ya id say im a playa got more than slacker and less than its alive so right in the middle...how did like yeah do lmao
