From Tech himself in the song "Message to the Black Man" "You cry about the way I paint my face It ain't y'all taste, little homie let my state my case I'm not a devil or damn jester rumors can fester Never uplift a demon with the image of my ancestors African, act like you see me when you be traffickin' Laughter when you frown up at me your hatred is bafflin' You watch American Idol my people my paint is tribal it Symbolizes not evil but the will still in survival"
Some parts from "Tech N9ne - Face Paint" too "When I get that on I black out it feels like I may faint Then I feel invincible never come to kid or play prank I say what the fuck I want and do what I want to do behind my (Face Paint) I can be who I want to be And I know its still me But I'm totally free with my (Face Paint) I put it on for you to see What is hiding deep inside behind my (Face Paint)" "Brian Dennis painted my face back in The day like 94 look now ain't it my taste I know a lot of mother fuckers think he tainted my faith But I keep that cross on me I pray and it just ain't at my grace But I ain't perfect Give me paint and the mic and Ima merc it"
You asked what's up with his face paint? He says that it resembles his ancestors and it is a representation of his alter ego, his clown, the part of him that doesn't give a f*** that comes out and says what he wants to say no matter what anybody thinks. In this case URALYA is about someone who used to work for him, I always thought he was talking about Kutt Calhoun but I don't think it's about him anymore. I'm not sure who it's actually about. But you can see in his face paint if you didn't recognize it before one image says "pist" and the other says "rage" and for the real hardcore fans who didn't notice he actually has the nine on the top of his head in Roman numeral
@@markperry8423 The first verse is towards the promotions guy who took the money to push their music and spent it on himself. The second verse is about Mark Cerami who misspent his own money on marketing and promotion for Strange Music, then tried to renegotiate the contract he had with them to get paid off of merch and show money to hide this fact. If I'm not mistaken he still owes Tech and Travis $3 million dollars for Strange Music artists album sales.
I wanna add to the “it resembles my ancestors” you gotta add to the fact he does it as well because his best friend Brian “Bizzle” Dennis was the first to paint techs face when they were all NNUTTHOWZE, and will always be a part of him because it’s when he embraced the alter ego he was now forming! All love! 🤘🏽
this is a must listen to jam if someone's trying to get a feel for every "era" of music tech has had... it's particularly poignant because of the subject material, insanely complicated yet effective delivery, & i think it "makes more sense" if yr trying to get a handle on how tech flows/his vernacular.
@@TheOrthoglyph the same song you refer to actually has multiple reasons to the actual reason he does it. Tech is a Juggalo. Thats why that songs with whoop whoop. But for the longest time, the majority of his fanbase was black and they looked down on hime for making "white rap" and that is where that bar comes from
As a personal friend of Tech, yes, the makeup, goth, and rock rap is part of his presentation. He's changed throughout the years. His old stuff is much different. Check out Mitch Bade, Cloudy Eyed Stroll, and the RDV cuts
there are seriously like, ten plus variations of tech n9ne, each uniquely true to himself & each as different as can be. ain't too many artists out there who can claim as much!
Tech approved! Fire Tech is a huge fan of Metal belive it or not. That's why he did feat with Corey Taylor from slipknot. All the best brother. Stay safe
Ayy , brother Stevie doing it big!! I still remember from when you had 10k subs and everyone was mocking you for being 50s look alike , there is only One Stevie Knight!
The face paint is a part of his 'killa clown' persona... Btw, good luck with breaking down his lyrics, the way he rhymes and his schemes aren't like any other, ive been listening to tech for a good 14 years and it takes a few times through his new songs for me to catch bars 😆
me too! from KCMO so i've been into tech since 2000 or so, & i always have his lyrics pulled up for breaking down the meaning... his delivery is exceptionally clean, but he's just so intense & fast it's still hard to hear, haha.
That Tecca Nina intro tho! Holy shit haha you should be extremely honored my man. Been listening to Tech since 99' One of the greateat, by far. Hell yeah man, you deserve the shout/co-sign🔥🔥
Einstein is probably his best "energy" track. I get super hyped when I listen to it. Also the first "Midwest Choppers" has one of the greatest choruses of all time!
Einstein and Beast are a couple of my favorites. The best thing about being a Tech N9ne fan is no matter what style you're in the mood for you can usually find a song to fit. Caribou Lou is my go to party song.
may i just say, dearest sir, that seeing this long overdue tech n9ne week just made my everything!!! thank you so very much! i highly doubt you'll be disappointed. ETA: PLZ tell me yr track list for this week includes "unfair" w/ CES cru! they are so freakin' dope (strange artists). it's an absolutely epic song.
Tech Used to paint his face all the time. It wasn’t until recent years that he stopped paining it so much. The paint is a tribute to his friend Brian Dennis who was killed before the Strange Music thing took off. It’s a tribute to him, plus “War Paint” for his shows at the time . But in later years he got to the point where he dosnet year it as much.. or might just wear a mask. But I think the idea was just to make it so that people could see his face. It’s hard to get on TV with the painted face the whole time.. and that’s what he wants to do.
To be honest bro you might want to find you a video on the career of Tech. There is just so much to talk about as far as everything he has gone through.
As far as I know he's never said who did the deed. Basically he paid somebody to help get his songs on radio way back when, like I'm the early 2000s. They basically took the money and ran and just told him the DJs didn't wanna play it. Shortly after that he put out stuff like F.T.I. and basically the whole Absolute power album
This was a shot at JCOR records for saying he didn't own his masters for his early stuff. They wanted more money from Tech to get his tracks on the radio. He's just calling them out for being liars.
Tech is so fucking dope, and do fucking humble! It's awesome to see him at the beginning introducing this whole journey, I'm being introduced to him basically with you, bro! Let's go 💪
The Beast was the golden doorway to me finding Tech. Instantly got the whole album. Then consumed all Strange artists. Only albums I buy without any hesitation.
So Lonely, Trapped In A Psychos Body, Low, Killing You, Tormented, My World, Turn, Wither, T9X, Fragile, Need Jesus, Seepage, The Industry Is Punks, The Grench
Tech is like the most masterful combination of rap and metal known to mankind. Lots of people have tried it over the years, but Tech is a wizard in this shit
THANK YOU!!!! Finally someone who doesn’t know Tech as well and doesn’t associate the face paint with Devil Worshipping like he fought for years. So refreshing to see that people have grown from that
Yo Stevie just found your channel. Love that you instantly become a technician. You ever hear his vintage album I still rock that whole album all the time
One of the big reasons is because it makes him feel like he's putting on armor shielding him allowing him to do what he wants on stage. He does it somewhat less nowadays and i believe that is partly due to him facing all of his fears and beating his inner demons
That is awesome having the Tech signed you, That is sick!! Tech9ine is one of my favorite rappers along with Eminem You gotta react to Caribou Lou, the beat is hard
Great first track for Tech Week. I'm not super familiar with his catalogue, so I'm ready for this week!! Anyone else expect Slipknot to walk on any second? In fact do I vaguely recall that he had a collab with them?
He got that Tech Co-sign!!🔥🔥😱
From Tech himself in the song "Message to the Black Man"
"You cry about the way I paint my face
It ain't y'all taste, little homie let my state my case
I'm not a devil or damn jester rumors can fester
Never uplift a demon with the image of my ancestors
African, act like you see me when you be traffickin'
Laughter when you frown up at me your hatred is bafflin'
You watch American Idol my people my paint is tribal it
Symbolizes not evil but the will still in survival"
I was about to post this same thing. Good thing i scrolled down to see if there was any real technicians that already said this!
That's a fire verse right there
Even with the lyrics I can't spit it out with finesse 🤕
Some parts from "Tech N9ne - Face Paint" too
"When I get that on I black out it feels like I may faint
Then I feel invincible never come to kid or play prank
I say what the fuck I want and do what I want to do behind my
(Face Paint)
I can be who I want to be
And I know its still me
But I'm totally free with my
(Face Paint)
I put it on for you to see
What is hiding deep inside behind my
(Face Paint)"
"Brian Dennis painted my face back in
The day like 94 look now ain't it my taste
I know a lot of mother fuckers think he tainted my faith
But I keep that cross on me I pray and it just ain't at my grace
But I ain't perfect
Give me paint and the mic and Ima merc it"
Oh damn, mad shout out from the Techman himself. You bringin that heat Stevie
swarmo8 this shit is one of the reason tech is my favorite rapper. He legit cares about people who fuck with him.
“This Ring” arguably his best song. “Come Gangsta” wild cadence and bad ass beat.
I see nothing but facts
Facts! Been wanting him and nolifeshaq to react to This Ring for awhile now.
You asked what's up with his face paint? He says that it resembles his ancestors and it is a representation of his alter ego, his clown, the part of him that doesn't give a f*** that comes out and says what he wants to say no matter what anybody thinks.

n9ne bro n9ne
The song is towards a former promotions guy for Strange Music and Mark Cerami a former music executive him and Travis were doing business with.
Break it down bruh!
@@markperry8423 The first verse is towards the promotions guy who took the money to push their music and spent it on himself.

The song “this ring” is fire
Hope he pulls the lyrics!
Yessss! That’s the one! That whole album needs a review!
this is a must listen to jam if someone's trying to get a feel for every "era" of music tech has had... it's particularly poignant because of the subject material, insanely complicated yet effective delivery, & i think it "makes more sense" if yr trying to get a handle on how tech flows/his vernacular.
Hell yeahhh
That was one of my first Albums! Midwest Choppers!
The face paint is definitely his thing he's done it for years especially during concerts
Additionally it harkens back to African tribal face paint. He says that during Cypher 1.
He also no longer doing makeup he using a mask now
@@TheOrthoglyph the same song you refer to actually has multiple reasons to the actual reason he does it. Tech is a Juggalo. Thats why that songs with whoop whoop.

Bro I'm hype as $#!+ Tech Week!!!
I’ve been waiting for so long.....lmao
As a personal friend of Tech, yes, the makeup, goth, and rock rap is part of his presentation. He's changed throughout the years. His old stuff is much different. Check out Mitch Bade, Cloudy Eyed Stroll, and the RDV cuts
Damn i love Cloudy eyed stroll.. when you hiiigghh 7 11 got the best food in the country hahahaha
@@StrictlyStrange67 no lie!
there are seriously like, ten plus variations of tech n9ne, each uniquely true to himself & each as different as can be. ain't too many artists out there who can claim as much!
@@emelianemone777 that's exactly why eminem respects him
This is actually an RDV/Tech song, but a club classic in KC...
th-cam.com/video/qdnGXLbqKm8/w-d-xo.html
We need to get "He's a Mental Giant" Tech reaction.
Word tech has some off the most creative rhyme structure in that track I've ever heard
Tech approved! Fire
Tech is a huge fan of Metal belive it or not. That's why he did feat with Corey Taylor from slipknot.
All the best brother. Stay safe
He like has a whole albums with electric guitars lol
Don't forget Serj Tankian from System of a Down.
@@cukieMunster straight out the gate is a FUCKING banger bro. "I ain't knocking no more I'm breaking in!!"
His song "AWW YEAH" .... watch it ... It's some what short but it is a dope track
Ayy , brother Stevie doing it big!! I still remember from when you had 10k subs and everyone was mocking you for being 50s look alike , there is only One Stevie Knight!
Stevie more handsome than 50 tho lmao
Do Questions! First song I heard by tech. I'm from the kc area. It was on that soundtrack to that Tupac movie Gang Related!!
The face paint is a part of his 'killa clown' persona...
Btw, good luck with breaking down his lyrics, the way he rhymes and his schemes aren't like any other, ive been listening to tech for a good 14 years and it takes a few times through his new songs for me to catch bars 😆
me too! from KCMO so i've been into tech since 2000 or so, & i always have his lyrics pulled up for breaking down the meaning... his delivery is exceptionally clean, but he's just so intense & fast it's still hard to hear, haha.
It's also cause he used to be a Jugalo
That Tecca Nina intro tho! Holy shit haha you should be extremely honored my man. Been listening to Tech since 99'
One of the greateat, by far. Hell yeah man, you deserve the shout/co-sign🔥🔥
The face painting represents the killa clown, basically its another persona of his. Similar to how eminem has a shady side and a marshal side
Einstein is probably his best "energy" track. I get super hyped when I listen to it. Also the first "Midwest Choppers" has one of the greatest choruses of all time!
Einstein and Beast are a couple of my favorites. The best thing about being a Tech N9ne fan is no matter what style you're in the mood for you can usually find a song to fit. Caribou Lou is my go to party song.
Aww yeah is probably the best
React to King Iso ft Tech N9ne - Requiem. One of his best recent verses
The raw musicality of that verse is insane
definitely need to jump on some of that Absolute Power album this week
Big facts
Yadda yadda yadda T9X ima playa the fuck am I saying the whole album is fire!
We need EBAH, Dr.Sabagh and Outdone!!!
He’s done outdone. Actually the first tech song he did
@@ThroughBlindEyesDru1 thanks!
Tech will definently grow on you and you'll start understanding where he's coming from. FTI
may i just say, dearest sir, that seeing this long overdue tech n9ne week just made my everything!!! thank you so very much! i highly doubt you'll be disappointed.

This is a long time coming...props to tech biggin up SK...hes a great reactor....props to SK
check out outdone again, the personalities behind him, how they come together at the end. His tribal roots are identified here.
To be honest bro you might want to find you a video on the career of Tech. There is just so much to talk about as far as everything he has gone through.
Wheaties Ft Shawna, B.I.T.C.H ft t.pain, Bass Ackwards ft lil Wayne, the beast, promise land!!!! The list goes on
Why you ain’t call me, that song explains a lot about tech and his life in the rap game
As far as I know he's never said who did the deed. Basically he paid somebody to help get his songs on radio way back when, like I'm the early 2000s. They basically took the money and ran and just told him the DJs didn't wanna play it.

The stevie knight train rolling hard now with the co-sign!
Tech is so fucking dope, and do fucking humble!
It's awesome to see him at the beginning introducing this whole journey, I'm being introduced to him basically with you, bro!

Love that the homie endorses your channel. Been a technician since 98 fam. Much love Stevie ✊🏼

Please tell me ‘come gangsta’ is on this list.
Actually most of Eveready album is 🔥🔥🔥
Eveready an underrated gem
Everready and Absolute Power his 2 best albums no cap
The Beast was the golden doorway to me finding Tech. Instantly got the whole album. Then consumed all Strange artists. Only albums I buy without any hesitation.
I was a casual Tech N9ne fan until I walked in Warehouse Music in high school and bought Everready with money from my first paycheck.
Ive been waiting for this. And the fact tech headed up the intro was so awesome man
So Lonely, Trapped In A Psychos Body, Low, Killing You, Tormented, My World, Turn, Wither, T9X, Fragile, Need Jesus, Seepage, The Industry Is Punks, The Grench

The tribal painted face comes from an idea his best friend Brian Dennis had, he’s been doing it for years, I wanna say since the late 90s? Not sure.
Thank you for this, Tech Week was sooooo needed
You should definitely react to einstein, mental giant, and riot maker.
