But in argument, it's not their place to put him on if he's standing around waiting on them to drop his name.
Listen on these tours these guys said all kinds of shit to Tech. I KNOW this. For one I have always felt like the industry was a little scared of Tech, even before he the Juggalo's. Suge liked him, Pac liked him, there was really (in my opinion) just a matter of time before Tech would have probably been affiliated with Death Row in some capacity. However they were risk takers during a time when it was o.k. to take some chances. I was at a show on Liquid Mix tour when Tech was on stage with NERD and Pharrell, and Pharrell had his arm around Tech saying he was the next big thing. This was at the time of the "phone tap freestyle" that HQ recorded.
In Indiana Tech blew Chingy, and Luda, off the stage and there were complaints that his set went too long, and the crowds energy was spent.
Jay-Z was in studio with Tech on the wake up show (if you have not heard this it is on the Midwestside for triple life cd) and wouldn't even jump in the cypher with him.
They know him, they know he steals the show, on the track and on the stage.
