It's an adaptation of his heritage. I didn't know I needed to use keywords to clarify my point.
Right, and I never admitted they didn't sign him based solely on that. They did the same thing with Grave Plott, and the end result of both of those albums were commercially not that great. Prozak sold more albums because of the Juggalo's, but they're not going to sustain an outsiders album sales unless he has his own fanbase, which is why they grabbed him up in the first place.
They're gearing towards their own creativity as artists through the darkness of their mental disorders, experiences, etc.
You act as if Juggalo's and horrorcore fans in general have sustained Tech N9ne and his label. His fanbase and, through association, his label mates Kaliko, Scoob, and Kutt all see the benefit of that small portion of the fanbase.
Tech scooped up BLH by way of Dave Weiner who's now the head of Strange Music West, a complete attempt at establishing an offshoot record label dedicated to the Bay area, Washington state and Oregon. Sure, he's horrorcore, but he's also one of the most recognizable artists from the area. It further helps that BLH was an influence of Tech's growing up in the rap game and also owned his own independent label. The acquisition is a direct result of Tech wanting to see such a major talent shine, and to provide an established foundation for their new sublabel.
He was ALMOST IN Soopa Villians. Had it not been for other things going on, that would have happened. That came about after Twiztid got him on Serial Killaz off Green Book.
And by dark he means all the shit he's been holding back to gain that recognition. I've heard the album, and yes it's got songs that are clearly horrorcore, but maintain a firm reality in his feelings toward other things. His fantasy alludes to things really taking place in his life.
