The Strange Music leader also shares what else he has in store for the future.

Tech N9ne recently scored his highest Billboard debut with All 6’s & 7’s, landing at No. 4 on the Albums 200 chart. Speaking with Bootleg Kev, the Kansas City, Missouri native explained how his movement keeps picking up steam even when he thinks he’s maxed out.

“It keeps getting bigger and bigger right before my eyes. Right when I'm thinking I've done a lot, a lot more comes. That’s a blessing, for real, because to be the only independent in the top five,” he said. “It was crazy. I don’t get no radio play or no video play, it was crazy. But my fans are insanely, crazily in love with me.”

He credits his success to his heavy tour grind, though a co-sign from Lil Wayne put him in new territory. “I think it started with Rock the Bells and Paid Dues, and then when Wayne said my name, a lot more people took notice and tried to see what it is. Then, they got this album and they were like, whoa,” he said. “With this album, there’s going to be a lot of awareness. People are going to start being familiar. After this, I’m about to work on a collabo CD called Strange Land with all our artists. Then I’ma do my rock album.”

T9 also explained that even though his collaboration with Eminem, “So Lonely,” couldn’t be completed in time for All 6’s & 7’s, a duet will one day see the light of day. “Royce [Da 5’9] hooked us up and Em said he’d love to do a song, we sent it to him and everything. And he said I’d live to do it. He was like, ‘I got that, give me a couple of weeks.’ And then Paul Rosenberg called and said it’d be like a month, and I was like, ooh, my mastering date was coming up in two weeks. So I was like OK, next time.”

Tech N9ne is such a nice guy. He's just so lovable. I love how Em's like "a couple weeks" and then "he's like nah, I'm Eminem and I don't give a shit so... ONE MONTH" and Tech's all patient and cool even though he's been waiting for this collab for SOOOO long, and says "OK, next time! "

I don't know...

I really think Em was saying a month because he needed time, because he wanted to make a good song...I doubt he doesn't give a shit, he knows Tech is fucking dope and he's gonna need to bring his absolute A game if he doesn't wanna get out shined.

Like how people pull the 'em is scared' off getting renegade or owned card. Em doing songs with redman and meth in the past' along with RBX,Sticky Fingaz, Busta rhymes and Remixing one off Biggies renowned best tracks means nothing then and must be scared off doing a track with tech even though he was gonna do it and still plan too.

I know but Em kinda gives off the vibe that he doesn't give a shit. Hopefully, I'm wrong, otherwise, Eminem is gonna get Fast Lane'd.

He should feel cocky because he's one of the chosen ones that can truly "Fast Lane" Eminem.

With good reason he had no marketing, no radio play no nothing made top 5 that is for sure amazing.

[M-Pyre]

i don't know about you guys but i find it extremely annoying when someone acts all cocky. actions should tell people that you're good, not you telling them you are.
