I was reading last week in another fourm on the siccness ( I think maybe the Open Forum) and there was a thread that asked something along the lines of
" What forum on the siccness do you never visit" One poster said the Strange Forum because "everyones on Tech's nuts" In another thread, here at the Strange forum a poster posted a single sentence something along the lines of "get off Tech's nuts"---that should be easy to find, I think it was posted yesterday.

The first thing that popped in my head when reading the thread in the "Open Forum" was the comment possibly stemmed from jealousy. There are multiple artists in the siccness community competing for your attention. It's not an unreasonable assumption.

Maybe it's not jealousy. There have been posters who respond rather emotionally when someone may disagree with a tech track opinion. A common response to the response has been " Why do you take it as a personal attack on you. You are not the artist" That logic is as solid as the jealousy theory.

Just as Tech is largely regarded as one of the best kept secrets in music, so is the team he works with to get the final product out. (there should be a ton of threads giving you gals/guys props) I would be somewhat surprised if Tech was a difficult person to accept constructive criticism based on the quality of work. I could imagine that would be rather irritating for people who work with him to read/listen to people more difficult than the man himself.

Me personally, I prefer the tech albums the way they are; I also enjoy the few variations I've heard put out from the source such as the Beast "lets make more" version; but I like the "that's a no no" version just as much.
Not that I've heard a lot of fans re-cuts, but I haven't "felt" them. Don't know who did the here comes tecca nina remix on youtube, but I personally think the original version was so right that it is untouchable.

Maybe someone has a difference of opinion and that's what makes the world go around. However, I have seen the difference of opinion emotions here go beyond any one artist. Notably though, is the fact that whenever I am at the siccness. the Strange Music Forum seems to have the most active users.
Some may interpret it as cool to have a rep of people on your ****, some may say it's damaging. One thing is for sure: a passionate fan-base is a good thing. Further, entertainers generally elevate as their supporters do.

So is the whole Strange Forum visitors " on Tech's nuts" simple shit talking, or is there substance behind the claims?

The fact that I will back up Tech if someone is stating something about him that I dont find to be true or relivent IMO doesnt make me a dick rider.

I got mad love for Tech and the shit he does, more so than ANYONE else in the industry, hence the reason I am on this site to begin with. He is the only artist's forum I visit and chat on simply for that reason.

Im not gonna babble on and on defending why I feel that way, because honestly I dont give a flying fuck how you feel about it one way or another. I dont need to explain myself to anyone about my choice of music. Nor should anyone else. People can think I suck for thinkin Tech is the best, (which they do) and it couldnt matter less to me, because I know I feel the same way about who they think is the best. Who gives a fuck, thats why people ARE PEOPLE and everyone has a matter of opinion.

So if I have a true passion about something I will defend it. Bottom line. Call that dick riding, call it whatever the hell you want. I could care less, it aint gonna stop me from doing it. I feel bad for people that dont have a artist they will back up like we back up Tech, everyone should have someone iN music that they are passionate about, thats what music is about, to enspire people and to move people emotionally through sound. And Tech is that person for me and the rest of us. If you dont like it... Real simple solution... GET THE FUCK OUTA HERE....

ONE.

No they're not.. Tech has done his fair share of wack tracks..

And this isn't just a Strange Music Forum.. There's a lot other parts to this forum, which some of you don't even realize.

And BTW, Tech's not really hip hop's secret anymore.. Almost all hip hop fans have at least heard of Tech N9ne. He doesn't appeal to everybody.

I don't think that the Strange section as a whole is on Tech's nuts but there are a few people that take everything the man says as gospel. Every now and then I'll read something on here that makes me shake my head; it's all love, a few people just seem "too deep" into it. Now I'll openly admit to being fanatical about Tech N9ne - I don't like using that word, but fuck it its the truth - but at the same time I'm very level headed and try to be objective plus judging from verious threads on here over the years I listen to a much wider selection of Hip-Hop than some other posters so maybe that has something to do with it. Anyway, I'm rambling here but as but 1 example of what I mean, whenever theres a new Tech interview in which he says something slightly controversial or against the grain of popular thought among the Hip-Hop community its a little suspect that the vast majority of the board will just happen to agree wholeheartedly with the statement like Tech N9ne is the Messiah of Hip-Hop and all words from his mouth should be taken as Gospel. This is going back a while now but I remember an interview where Tech said he wouldn't do mixtape stuff because (if I remember correctly) why would he "put his soul into something he's not going to be rewarded for?" Now thats a fair point for Tech to make if thats how he feels about it but tell me its not nut-riding just a little when right away almost everybody was passionately typing there replys of "yeah mixtapes are bullshit why make music you're not gonna get properly paid for!" (although these views seemed to be forgotten when anyone mentioned the FLAMEZ mixtape.) Like I said its all love, there are people who take everything KRS-One, Common, The RZA and even ICP say the same way. It's just what some fans do.
