Vitiligo was the second weakest release from Strange last year.

Post by: you gon always be my latin queen bitch on January 03, 2009, 12:26:31 PM
nah i was talkin in general from all their releases theyve ever released
krizz kaliko is next to blow outta the group IMO
but greed, makzilla, shadow are doope
you have any websites on them??
good lookin out
and have you heard that track wit kutt/kaliko wit tech at the start, moch something or some shit?

krizz kaliko's album I was expectin more from him but the album was dope no doubt
bangin production and lyrics were dope
btw:you think tech was takin shots at any one in the crew cut song?
Title: Re: CREDITS: Kutt Calhoun - Feature Presentation
Post by: Mizery Made on January 03, 2009, 01:08:31 PM
More was certainly expected from Kaliko's album, which seems to be the consensus I've seen. It just lacked too much of what makes Kaliko stand out on everything else he does. The production was next to horrible, IMO. The only other Strange Music release from last year that makes me cringe as much is The Plott Thickens, which is why I labeled it the second weakest album they put out last year.

As for blowing up, I'd honestly put money on Kutt Calhoun getting mainstream attention before any of the others, and have better success than Tech himself. Kutt has the right mixture between that sound you hear on the radio daily, and the ability to rip a track like Tech lyrically and flow wise. I'm waiting patiently to see what the Bunk Rock Bitch video does when it's finally released. Insiders are labeling it the best video Strange has produced (beating out Slacker, Imma Tell, Bout Ta Bubble & Like Yeah), so I'm looking for it to make some moves.

As for Makzilla, Greed & Shadow, can't help you much. Makzilla just performs some hype duties prior to Tech going on stage for concerts and has made a few skit like appearances on the recent Strange releases. Aside from that, I know nothing about him. Shadow is another local rapper (Kansas City), but aside from an appearance on Panic's Madcell Mixtape, D-Loc & Dalima's Gillhead Flossin', and obviously Misery Loves Kompany, I don't know too much about him either. Greed (or sometimes listed Young Greed) is Tech's nephew, but hasn't done much aside from a few appearances on Strange releases.

The Kutt/Kaliko track with Tech... um... I can't really say. "moch something" makes me think of Too Much from Killer, but that's probably not what you're talking about. Without more detail, I can't really say.

Tech's verse on Crew Cut sounds like a general shot out to all those fakin, I wouldn't say he had anyone in particular in mind when he wrote that verse. Besides, Tech's not much for subliminals, more likely to say your name on the record if he's dissing you.

thats waz up
damn krizz album was dope IMO and I liked it more than both skat and snug's albums and shit I'd say both kutt's albums overall, and pretty much anything cept tech's releases.  Im not sayin kutt's not dope but overall krizz album had more heat alltogether.
but yeah kutt is dope and I like his style
damn his album's been out and they havent put that video out yet, that dont sound rite
makzilla, shadow and greed are dope and mad talented
jus wish i had more info on them to get more muzik and stay updated
nah that song isnt too much but thats dope
i think it might be on the strange noize cd
it has tech on the intro
krizz doin: he crazy, he crazy....
kutt: look up in the sky, flamed up and b'd out...
any idea?

I see now, you're talking about Exclusive. Yeah, it appeared on the Stange Noize '08 compilation as well as the Strictly Strange '08 compilation. A snippet of it was also included on the We Are The Future sampler from back in like... April '08. That song (Exclusive), Whip It, Playa Like Me and Party Rock were all early material recorded for this album, but since two had been around since late 2006, and the others had been on the sampler, they decided to toss them on those two compilations and use their slot on the album for new material.

Post by: you gon always be my latin queen bitch on January 03, 2009, 01:32:19 PM

damn another leftover wow the ebst gets left out
yeah I mean I prefer kutt's whip, playa like me, wlak wit a limp
and that bunk rock shit, it suprised me to see that he had twisted the t-pain shit
but damn its actually called "exclusive"
aite do you know of any other leftovers from feature presentation?
and do you know what the leftovers are from killer?

good lookin out on all the help!

Kutt's album was indeed solid, but it takes a lot to put it over any Tech album. I honestly feel Feature Presentation and Word On Tha Streets would have a fight to determine the 2nd Best rank with the loser falling to third with Prozak slipping in just behind them.

conqueso34 is right about the Killer leftovers. Those were the only three mentioned, and have all three since been released. There's been no other confirmed leftovers for this one though, other than those mentioned. There's a Kutt interview that's in the process of being released (in mini-clips), so more information might surface soon.

If either of you wanted, you could try again. My theory is the board doesn't like the periods, and forward and backslashes I had in my display name. *Shrugs*

aite i was bout to say did I miss something???
haha
IMO the best didnt make the album exclusive
but bunk rock sounds aite considerin he went wit the autotune shit but again overall the album wasnt a huge success and a huge suprise
mos def a let down considerin hes one of the more lyrical rappers outta the team

Post by: you gon always be my latin queen bitch on January 03, 2009, 06:12:05 PM
the short story of how I got into tech is:
my cuzzin told me bout him and he was all yeah this tech n9ne and hes bangin listen to this I went and listened to this ring, I was jus like damn but i didnt think nothin of it.
cuz usually when he would put me on muzik it would be some bay area shit, Im not into the bay stuff so i was expectin something on that level, but damn was i wrong
then as time went on, i studied his muzik more and more and now I pretty much know all of his muzik and my cuzzin prolly dont even listen to him as much as me.
crazy shit tho

yeah, it wasnt a huge success in terms of sales, but for me it was. i downloaded and bought it.

Bought it at one of their shows up in here in the bay. got that and killer, 2 for $10. still havent opened killer yet.
I think if more people listened to it more would buy, but maybe the video will help

Post by: you gon always be my latin queen bitch on January 03, 2009, 06:16:24 PM
yeah I think he will get his jus due eventually like tech did many years later
but damn seems like they might form a group
tech
kutt
krizz

always doin songs as a trio?
that be dope!!!
i still need to give killer a full listen thru, but that album also was a let down but better than kutts.  jus thikn tech could have done better but then again he was toppin one of his best so Im not suprised, he outdid himself IMO!!!
