Fuckin cry about it like ya do everything else, Tech.
All the youtube videos I've seen of this concert it doesn't sound like lip synching to me. All the concerts I've seen it doesn't sound like lip synching.

I'm sure you wouldn't say anything then wonder why people don't show up to your concerts anymore or why people start hating on you.

If what Tech does is considered lip-synching, then fine. Have you heard these other rappers perform live???? STRAIGHT GARBAGE! Pick an artist.... he probably sucks live. NOT EVERYONE sucks live, but most rap acts do. 6 people on stage sayin' each others verses soundin' all loud and shitty. Yeah, if Tech does have tracks playin' in the background, (I wouldn't doubt it), he still rips it through the mic... I've been to 2 Tech shows and shit sounds great to me.

Just about everybody that I have seen live has had the tracks playing in the background. From ICP to C-Rayz Walz. Tech should expect people saying shit like that and shit way worse if he wants the mainstream love he is always crying about.

so if tech kutt or krizz miss a beat (which is rare) you still get the full effect.
I like how in rap, fucking up and letting your cd cover it up is considered "getting the full effect". If that's how I'm supposed to look at it then maybe I should stop listening to rap.

yeah in that paid dues clip he isn't lip synching. For somebody to make that type of accusation in a major publication like that could hurt your revenue so Tech was right to call him out on it.
Not if at that particular show Tech's vocals weren't correct. The guy's never seen Tech, and his first impression was that he was lip-syncing... not a huge mistake to make if Tech's levels weren't correct.

You guys are on some nut riding shit here, for real. You can't even admit that when levels are incorrect and your mic isn't on, you're lip syncing to a backing vocal track? Kick rocks.

either way, it's something he shouldn't do or he's going to get a lot of flack from the hip-hop-authenticity police.
Aparrently none of you care, so why should anybody else?

Pick an artist.... he probably sucks live.
DMX. Ill Bill. Eminem. Jay-Z.

I don't watch much in the way of live rap music but those are a few from the top of my head that I know go fine by themselves live.

The point you don't seem to get (which was clearly described in the fuckin article) was the fact that by having someone such as the LA Times say this shit about him, it could have fucked up some shit for him in the future, as he was tryin to get on the Rock The Bells Tour.... its industry shit:paranoid:

No doubt if you go to a tech show you can see there is no lip singing what so ever. He just has the flow down like that. I mean fuck, he has been practicing since before 97 on his flow. I would think after 12+ years of practicing, he would have the flow down.

DOES ANYBODY HERE EVER LISTEN TO A FUCKING POINT ANYMORE??

And seriously speaking do you think he secretly recorded Red Nose 12+ years ago and has been practising it since?

Wow, you took that way different than I meant it. I was just trying to say he has his flow in general down after practice and dont need to lip sing.

Ive been to hella tech shows and hella mainstream shows and tech by far has the best show...everyone has the backtrack if they dont lipsync its just most the mainstream artist have like 8 boys on stage with them and just yell in the mic.

techs shit is very organized, well done and sounds the best byyyyyyyyyyyyy far.

never once thought he was lip syncing.

and for you clowns that say "oh well i seen him not saying anything but the words were coming out of the speakers"....well dumb shit thats a background vocals and tech is taking a breathe in between some of the words and thats when kutt and krizz come in...if you would stop gazing at tech in the face like a little school girl you would see that.

the writer sounds like a idiot...like zero said i dont read the la times to find out about rap
