Names like Krizz Kaliko, Kutt Calhoun, Jay Rock, and others familiar to those who venture into Strange’s sliver of the underground fill the guest list, while production comes from Seven, Jomeezius the Genius, ¡Mayday!, and other house favorites. Still, this journey through the man’s past is mostly about the friends he’s made and then signed to his Strange Music label. They’re generally less biographical too, which is no surprise as so many outside voices are butting in, but Welcome to Strangeland looks to blend the two worlds as Tech’s fourth Collabos release takes on the extra burden of being conceptual. If you want to keep up with the prolific Tech N9ne (and you’re quite behind already), know that his regular albums are like tell-all memoirs from Hades while his Collabos releases (and his mixtapes, EPs, and whatnots) are more like everyday horror novels, more exciting without leaving such a lasting impression. Purchase and download this album in a wide variety of formats depending on your needs.
