Kanye is self produced and produces for other artists.

[King Lance]

I was talking about Kanye. Is his music self-produced?

yep a lot of his songs are self-produced (and usually co-produced by big names)

His production list is pretty big :

He's been getting lazy with his producing though. He's starting to look to other producers which is a bad sign. I see a Kanye Stan rampage in the near future I hate to say.

I'll admit, I couldn't really get into Tech just because of his lyrics alone. Usually, I don't judge on lyrics harshly if the rapper's at least pretty entertaining to listen to e.g. Chief Keef, 2 Chainz, trap rappers in general...

I tried to give some of his songs a listen but most of his lyrics were just random and made no sense. Some of the Tech fans here - and most commonly you Elision - bring up this 'Tech language'. If you could expand more on that, I'm sure most of us would be able to fully appreciate Tech like you guys do.

BTW, this thread went off-topic faaast.

"Tech Language" is most likely something Tech or his fans invented as an excuse for his poor lyricism. It's an easy cop out, comparing his use of the English language to an abstract painter. Elements may be random on their own, but together make up the beautiful picture that is a Tech N9ne song. Insert four butterflies.

It's not a copout when he's kept it consistent for over 20 years. It's genuinely his writing style.

You are missing the point. It may be stylistic, but that doesn't make it good. I could make the stylistic decision to fill my bars with poor grammar, awkward phrasings, and convoluted messages, but that doesn't mean it's good. Plus, Tech already has that covered.

A clever spin on the classic "I know you are, but what am I?". I'll be sure to add it to my arsenal, lol.

Ahh you edited the post - I'll leave my rebuttal there just in case you decide to change it back. You're getting kind of desperate now and aren't focusing on my argument. Try to look at what's relevant my little friend.

What is your argument? You didn't understand Lance.

And what are you trying to rebuttal? Are you just always at war in your head? Jesus christ what is that like?

edit: talking about relevancy over here when you're swinging at ghosts

Let me break down what's happened for ya:

Lance said he thought Tech was an entertainer, and that's great. I agree, I bet he's a beast live. However, like I said, that has no bearing on his lyricism. I also responded to your point about Tech making sense.

Blu asked about Tech language. I wasn't familiar with the term but took a stab at it. You confirmed my definition, but also missed the point of the post by saying that it was stylistic. I responded to that statement in my next post.

You then quoted me and said, "We aren't talking about Jokerr", which I thought was kind of clever so I commended you. You then edited the post realizing it was too clever for it's own good and said something about "purple". I then edited my post to reflect the change.

At that point you quoted me and seemed to be confused. Like, you didn't understand what you've been doing for the last 20 minutes. So here I am with the play by play to jog your memory.

Here's where the confusion happened and if it was my fault I apologize. But it seemed like you didn't understand what makes tech an entertainer as a whole. Because when I referred to my sig you said I missed the point. But now you're saying that you agree.

And by writing "style" I meant that's the style he writes. Not his style as a rapper. Even authors have a writing style. I wasn't talking musically

[Willy]

Wow.

[Elision]

I'm a fan of Tech N9ne and I don't need a dictionary to translate his shit, he spits a lot of weird lines that seem like they don't make sense but if you focus on it, you'll get it.

Maybe it's because I grew up listening to Brotha Lynch Hung, but I don't find his lyrics nonsensical.

just let it die dude. there's nothing left to be said
