Would you bury a body for Tech N9ne?
This segment from The Cruz Show on Power 106 shows that Tech N9ne's friends and fans would go lengths to help him out. In a hilarious feature on the show entitled, "Are You Down?" Tech N9ne calls a buddy to help bury the body of a dead porn star. The response from the other side of the phone definitely shows a loyal following to Tech, supporting the rapper and even offering to check out the situation. This hysterical back-and-forth is a must-listen!
MURS talks about life, his album Have a Nice Life, and everything in between with the Mid-Morning Grind.
The Mid-Morning Grind got to chop it up with Wrekonize of ¡MAYDAY!, getting the inside scoop on his collaboration with Talib Kweli and Redman on DJ EFN's album "Another Time", as well as the upcoming ¡MAYDAY! album set to be released in 2015.
Krizz Kaliko joined the Mid Morning Grind team on Dash Radio to discuss details behind his next album, including that he may look to sing more and rap less.
Like it's been stated time and time again, Strange Music's primary focus since day one has been with the fans. The recent success of Tech N9ne Collabos - Strangeulation only goes to show how far the fanbase has taken the Snake and Bat, from a once industry underdog to one of the most talked about forces in the music business. As it turns out, Tech N9ne's meaning behind the title Strangeulation is far from a overzealous proclamation and Strange Music really has the game in a chokehold.
To further expand on the theme of Strangeulation, we talked to the brains behind the business that, through 14 years of hard work, careful decision making and dedication, has changed the way the music industry does business. Strange Music CEO Travis O'Guin sat down for us for more than an hour to discuss Strange Music, where it started, where it's at, and where it's going. For someone with as much business acumen as O'Guin, you'll be surprised to hear that he considers the future of Strange Music to be out of his hands.
Upon hearing about the success of 'Tech N9ne Collabos: Strangeulation', Tech expresses his heartfelt gratitude to all the fans that make what we do possible.
Out on the road, Tech N9ne leaves a message to Godemis of CES Cru! #TechN9ne #CESCru #Strangeulation

The two emcees chop it up about the major perks of doing it on your own and the pitfalls of being under a major label system. 50 gives it up to Tech N9ne's business savvy and says that he's been studying his methods for quite some time!
Strangeulation: it's way more than the title of Tech N9ne's upcoming collabos album.
Strangeulation is a bold statement: "We're here, we've been here and we're taking over. What you're doing now, we've been doing, and what you're not doing now, we're about to do." From the sound of the music to the way the business is running, Strange has been at the forefront of all it all and is going to continue to push the boundaries.
Tech N9ne, a bold leader of thought and action, sits alone in the newly-constructed Strangeland Studios and discusses how it feels to be the trendsetter behind the trendsetters, and where Strange is going to take it next.

One of Tech N9ne's most important verses this year appeared on Stevie Stone's 2 Birds 1 Stone with "The Baptism".
Since the rumor was started over a decade ago and because of his spiritual imagery in his music and album artwork, Tech N9ne has had to deal with the misplaced label of "Devil Worshipper". With his verse on "The Baptism", the room for speculation is closed.
Ironically, one of the hardest records on 2 Birds 1 Stone is a Christian rap song, where Stevie Stone, Rittz and Tech N9ne rap about the works of the Lord over a dark and moody trap beat. We talked to Tech N9ne to get his take on the song and find out what led to the inspiration behind his verse.
Tech reveals his thoughts on the rumor that he's a devil worshipper, reveals a lot behind his religious upbringing, and also gives his opinions on the artists' verses.
To all the critics, here's a message from Tech N9ne: step your game up.
It's one thing to have an opinion, but according to Tech N9ne, if you're a critic and your opinion isn't based on real knowledge of what you're talking about, then do the world a favor and keep it to yourself.
We talked to Tech N9ne about what inspired the "Fragile" from Something Else, the song featuring Kendrick Lamar, ¡MAYDAY! and Kendall Morgan that's already spread like a brushfire. #SomethingElse
With "So Dope" giving fans even more to anticipate from Something Else, we caught up with Tech N9ne for a lengthy interview on his patented chopper flow and the importance of intricacy in his rhymes.
What happens if Tech N9ne stops rapping? What's the future for Strange Music? Why does Strange Music make the moves that it does?
Travis O'Guin answers this and much more in this revealing final half of our two-part interview with the Strange Music CEO
Over 20 years of blood, sweat and rhymes have led up to what could be the most defining moment of Tech N9ne's career: Something Else.
Alongside Tech N9ne for every step of the way was none other than Strange Music CEO Travis O'Guin. The man notorious for applying common sense to an uncommon line of work has solidified Strange Music as the quintessential independent record label and has no plans of stopping anytime soon.
Who better to talk to for a sneak peek at what to expect on what will be Tech's biggest and most important album? In the first part of this revealing two-part interview, Travis tells you why Something Else is Strange Music's best album to date and definitely lives up to the title.
