Man this shit is getting blown way out of proportion.
The cat don't sound ungrateful to me. If you are talented at some shit and for WHATEVER reason you aren't progressing the way you feel you should there is gonna be frustration, and artists vent through their art. Plain and simple. For the most of his career even since the FTI days Tech has been frustrated with being in the shadows of the music industry, and he vented through his music. Now the cat is a multi-millionaire, history making rapper who is leaving an imprint on the industry. Imagine if the shadow you were in, was your label mate, your friend, and your boss. Tech was saying fuck people he didn't give a shit about, Kutt loves Strange, he just isn't happy where he is in his career. For some of you that haven't been around long enough to remember, Strange music operated in the RED for years, it was a big investment from all of these guys. It used to be a small, small crew, and Trav,Cory, Krizz, Kutt, Tech, Grant Rice, Big Nick, Joe Vertigo, and Matt sometimes. They traveled the country in vans and box trucks. So when you look at the fact that every tour (with the exception of outside of the U.S.) Kutt and Krizz have put in the EXACT same amount of travel and effort that Tech has, and now that Tech has exploded, as a man you have to start looking at where you are versus what you have invested, and where you THINK you should be.
Tech probably encourage Kutt to put these songs on the album, and as a co-owner of a label, I would be glad that my artist isnt complacent, and that he wants more than he has. Tech has seen Kutt's work ethic for the last 10+ years, mainly in support of him, imagin how hard he will work for himself.
