Tech needs to quit signing all these "they were good in their day" rappers. There's a reason they weren't heard, and it wasn't his fault.
I was never a huge fan of Hopsin, and I'm not the biggest fan now, either... But If there's someone that could sell records, with the right promo, right now... it would be him, IMO. At a time where Shady is fucking with Yela (and I'm hearing Yela on Hot 97), Strange needs to be fucking with younger artists, with a "stranger flavor".
Fuck these wack bands Strange is fucking with... They suck. I'd say focus on younger "strange" rap acts. If Strange really wants to sign rock acts, look into shit similar to Mindless Self Indulgence or a Mushroomhead type shit. Not every "strange" rock group has a rapper in it.
When Tech and/or Trav picked the name "Strange Music", I think there was probably a strong reason for that. As far as the shit besides Tech/Kutt/Kali (the go-to team), nobody that's released anything on the label has been very "strange", besides the obvious PDM/Liquid Assasin/Prozak/Psychopathic time where they mixed up the word "Strange" with "Horrible".
I'm no expert, but I think the numbers show that dealing with people outside of what I consider "Strange" has been a bust. Lynch is pretty strange... But he's been strange for 15 years and always because of the same shit. People were tired of him before he was tired of himself, and that was a long time ago...
But.. who the fuck knows? Maybe Lynch somehow is in the black. Maybe they think Mayday is going to be some big fucking hit... They know better than us, eh?
