I ran scrimmage and I fought to the damn finishДЄnd I popped eyes open without eating me canned spinach вЂњReal rock rap and not to Xerox weird notД®nough to make you fear a lot from here watch Tinkling piano keys set to a slow handclap create a low-key platform for Nina to tell the listener what he is and has been about as the public only just seem to be catching on after TechвЂ™s twenty-odd years in the game. The first verse may be familiar to anybody that saw TechвЂ™s appearance at this yearвЂ™s BET cypher but it is far more suited to in-house producer SevenвЂ™s subtly brilliant beat. Kutt Calhoun and Jay Rock come through over the Dre-like production of вЂњKockyвЂќ before Tech N9ne himself slows the pace down for the first release from the LP, вЂњWho Do I CatchвЂќ. As I listened to this album, I became more and more impressed with Kaliko, none more so than on вЂњUnfairвЂќ where among the company of Tech and fellow Kansas City spitters Ces Cru, he delivers arguably the strongest verse on a lyrically airtight track. This also serves as the newcomerвЂ™s introduction to Krizz Kaliko himself and his presence is heavily felt on this album, either rapping or singing on most of the fifteen songs on display here. My team captain is you Nina IвЂ™m the first lieutenantД®njoy your visit this is Strangeland that you inventedвЂќ Waterfalls in Strangeland go up, filled with streams of Caribou Lou I wasnвЂ™t really in to rap or into rap cause I seen too many falls

This is the temple of makinвЂ™ it look simple to yaвЂ™ll We past ya long ago, ya concentrate on rappinвЂ™ faster Them G-O-DвЂ™s and we can bless ya like we was a pastor We been seeinвЂ™ lots of cats copyinвЂ™ ya not The big swinginвЂ™ cocks of rap, r&b and rock We done strugglinвЂ™ we forced our way in and forced to weigh in We just the lost boys like we sons of Donald Sutherland Shear stroke of genius since we appeared out the penis On this fear that is fearinвЂ™ us, spear chuckers that love to bust You can hear how we kill everyone, weвЂ™re helter skelter Krizz Kaliko: вЂњNow here is a beautiful world for you to enter This leads straight into the title track where long-term affiliate Krizz Kaliko greets Tech and indeed the listener and welcomes them to Strangeland. вЂњStarsвЂќ is a strong start to the album as SevenвЂ™s twinkling and atmospheric track provides the perfect backdrop for Tecca NinaвЂ™s stuttering, stop-start, rapid-fire delivery to describe his voyage to Strangeland. It is a concept album of sorts with Tech taking us on a journey through Strangeland and introducing us to his various labelmates along the way. It follows the format of its predecessors with Tech N9ne sharing microphone time with a host of guests and this time around it is his Strange Music family that step up. ItвЂ™s also his second release of the year, following hot on the heels of вЂњ All 6вЂ™s and 7вЂ™sвЂњ, and this is the fourth instalment of his вЂCollabosвЂ™ series. Despite a constantly crazy tour schedule which sees Mr Yates frequently cover the globe, вЂњWelcome to StrangelandвЂќ is TechвЂ™s FOURTEENTH studio album since 1999. Whether you are a fan of Aaron Yates aka Tech N9ne or not, there is no denying the manвЂ™s work ethic.
