Tech N9ne turned to music at an early age and first began to rap as a young child as a way to remember how to spell his name. After some troubling events occurred in Yates’ life he started to use music and rapping as a way to vent his frustration. He started his professional career in 1991 as a rapper in the group Black Mafia, which experienced some success with the single “Let’s Get Fucked Up”. After Black Mafia disbanded he joined the group Nnutthowze, but soon moved onto the group The Regime in 1997, which was created by the rapper Yukmouth. Later that year Tech N9ne formed his own record label Strange Music.
In 1999 Tech N9ne released his debut solo album “The Calm Before the Storm”. One of the songs on the album “Questions” was included in the soundtrack for the film “Gang Related” and was the first song to be released by Tech N9ne as a solo artist. The soundtrack was a success due to rappers like 2Pac and Ice Cube contributing to the album, and the soundtrack ended up reaching the No. 2 spot on the Billboard’s Top 200 chart. In 2001 Tech N9ne released his third studio album “Anghellic”, which featured the single “It’s Alive”. The album wasn’t necessarily a commercial success, but it received positive reviews and is looked at as an iconic representation of the horrorcore genre.
Tech N9ne’s fourth studio album “Absolute Power” released in 2002 showed him starting to break into the mainstream with it being his first studio album to make it on the Billboard charts. His fifth studio album “Everready (The Religion)” showed Tech N9ne starting to climb the charts making it to No. 50 on the US Billboard 200 chart and No. 2 on the Independent Albums chart. The song “Caribou Lou” was one of the hits from the album and was certified Gold in 2012.
With Tech N9ne’s seventh album “Killer”, he was able to achieve his 1 millionth album sale. The album was a great commercial and critical success, and reached No. 12 on the Billboard 200 chart. The album also featured many notable guest appearances such as Scarface, Ice Cube, Kottonmouth Kings, and Shawnna.

I saw Tech N9ne in saint louis at the pagent!! It was amazing - what all the fans have been waiting for. The crowd was already on their feet, anticipating Tech N9ne to come out. And when he storms onto stage the crowd went crazy. The majority of the audience have seen Tech N9ne in concert before, but for those who have never seen him in action, it was worth the wait. He came out sporting his usual face paint. He put on an excellent, high energy show for the die-hard fans who have been waiting almost over three hours for his set. All in all, despite the whole show being over three hours, it was still an amazing show all together. The show gave an opportunity for people to see artists that they’ve never heard before and it gave the artists themselves exposure to gain more fans across the country with this tour. His wardrobe changes were amazing!! I can't wait to see hime again! STRANGE MUSIC ALL THE WAY!!!!

E-40, or Earl Stevens as he’s known at home, is one of those rappers who quite simply has refused to play by anybody else’s rules but his own; over the course of a career that has now spanned almost twenty-five years, he’s bucked trends consistently and followed his own lane, and yet still enjoyed plenty of critical and commercial success in the process. Back in the mid-nineties, his second studio album, In a Major Way, went platinum and made a name for him as a major player on the west coast; since then, he’s released another eighteen studio efforts, and continues to tour, too. Continuing to stay very much ahead of the hip hop curve, E-40 welcomed contemporary stars like Rick Ross and French Montana on his latest album, last year’s The Block Brochure: Welcome to the Soil 6; it’s testament to the reverence with which he’s treated in that scene, and his cult fanbase continue to pack out rooms for his live show, which sees him run through both new and classic cuts with a live band; he’s well overdue, though, for a return to the UK, so look out for any dates he might be able to squeeze in alongside his prodigious studio schedule.
