^His best albums are "Calm Before The Storm" and "Anghellic". "Everready" and "Killer" were decent. "Everready" actually had some great songs, but overall, it was just too commercialized. "Killer" also had a few nice tracks, but the sound is, again, way too commercialized, and I've come to expect a lot more from Tech ...I was probably one of his biggest supporters before those 2 albums dropped. I still support his shit, but the sound just ain't classic Tech. To me, Tech veering away from his original style of production is the same as Reggie Miller veering away from the three point shot. Very disappointing.

im not an expert on tech but is the sound shift due to his split with don juan ?

yes and no...his best shit was with Don Juan, but he still made great stuff after they parted ways. I'd say it's mostly due to him going after commercial success.

I'm not hating on it...i even said, there were great tracks on that album. Definitely better than 99% of the shit being released nowadays. It's just not the classic Tech shit we've gotten accustomed to, that's all.

I don't know, I thought "Killer" is DOPE! CD 2 is definitely a lot better than CD 1 to me, the end of the album is the best.

Fav track is "why U aint call me" thats one of my fav Tech joints, also "Cry Baby", "Happy Ending", "Can't Shake It", "Psycho Bitch 2", "Black Boy", "Hope For A Higher Power" are all dope.

Where did I say it was up to par with his classic shit? I said it's DOPE! I don't know I've been bumping nothign but Tech N9ne for the last couple weeks, put his discography on shuffle and let it play..

I know what you're saying, Anghellic, Calm Before The Storm were way rawer.. But if I removed some of the party tracks and some of the girl tracks on Killer I could make a single CD album almost on the same level as those albums.. Of course it's different, years have passed! Plus Tech said after he stopped doing E, he started making more feel good music and moved away from the dark stuff a bit, which is understandable I guess!

Naah...he's still doing dark stuff, it's just watered down now...I dunno, man. I mean, it's not bad, but I dunno. You can't make a single CD out of "Killer" that would be anywhere near the classic shit. Let me ask you something, are you just now getting into Tech or have you been into his shit?

Nah I've been listening to his stuff, copped Anghellic and Absolute Power years ago, then went back and got Calm Before The Storm and Vintage Tech.. I got into Tech through "Questions" off that one Death Row soundtrack.

Like I said I'm not saying it's comparable to the old stuff, but I can feel his new stuff, it's different but I feel the evolution. No I don't like all the hard party tracks but there's still enough dope shit inbetween to me, and his flow is always on point.
