I love to see Emcees talk like this. This is true Hip Hop. I feel like Fragile was just right with Tech and Kendrick but I do agree with Yelawolf being a good fit for the track too.
Facts
Yep. Don't sleep on Wrek though. My man can harmonize but he's a killer on the mic.
Yeah, Yela definitely seemed like he'd be a great fit on that song.
@@illuminahde he's dope, but he gets bodied by most of strange or TDE
@@dajion13 Tech is the king but nah, you should dig a little deeper into his work. This is a nuanced discussion and an impossible arguement because they all have so much talent. Boy Q and Kendrick's squad don't play either. For me, though Wreck is the more well written. More continuity and depth. He's got an entire track that's a play on words where he's talking about his phone. It took me a couple listens before I put out together. Knowtifications.
The respect these two mcs have for each other is incredible
Word up. They collabed on multiple songs over the years including Sickology 101 which had Chino XL on it too. Chino is a straight up legend yo.
Nobody:
@@devotheambivert9875 : Word up, but Chino XL is a legend
I’d kill to see a new Slaughterhouse-Esque super group with these two and one or two other top tier MC’s
@@TeeJaySmall It seems like Scru Face Jean, CHVSE, Crypt, and Duane Jackson are the young Slaughterhouse. They be spazzing.
That Beast track with Busta was crazy too. Shit'll make ya heart start racing lol machine gun flows
It's crazy how tech can spit bars from a song with the same flow years old on the spot like nothing tech is the underrated 🐐
If it was tens years ago I'd say this but it wasn't that long ago
@@hollowfist9072 2013 was a while ago
@@moneymantwin1267 Meh, I can remember alot from 6 years ago it's your point of view though
@@hollowfist9072 if you think about how many versus this dude has made since 2013 you'd understand the impressive nature of that. Granted Fragile is his 2nd biggest song so he likely hears it enough
I rap and the verses you spit are cemented in stone just about.
When you write, you rehearse it over and over.
When you record you rehearse it over and over.
When he tours, he rehearses it over and over.
It becomes as engrained as any song that you listen to a lot.
I sometimes can’t get my own verse out of my head to the point it drives me crazy
*Laughs In Rigamortis*
Goyon Man underrated comment
Nah fa real doe hahahahaahhahah like the cadence
Idk if I missed a specific verse or anything, but he is not going fast on rigamortis. I can say the lyrics as fast while reading them and I don’t rap and don’t have them memorized. ?
Rigamortis was cut and put together in the studio tough
And Cartoons and Cereal
Yelawolf and tech need to do more songs together
Tech made so many songs, so many albums, so many records and yet, YET! He is able to remember most of his songs once it's called.
Kevin Start to be fair fragile is one of his biggest in terms of main stream success
Thata true love for the art
Tech is the goat of rap
When he performed in Berlin, Germany everyone wanted him to do the song T9X, but it wasnt on the setlist so he just did like 1 minute of the song (acapella) without any problem and that track is from 2002!
Kevin Start I was gon point that out! That shit crazy especially with how fast he raps
I like how this dude is an artist and a fan man it's like he's an OG we can still give someone else they props that's rare
Tech definitely needs a J.i.d feature
JID gets busy
He gettin busy
JID needs a Teck N9ne feature
Tech N9ne with Montana of 300 would be insanely lit too.
And, just because I'm a fan of the underdog, I'd take a collaboration with Crypt too... That'd be a fun record.
@@RAW_Reality Montana is trash
Everybody need a friend like tech. He hypes his people up and it’s nothing but love. Get you a friend like tech.
Tech is tha most Humble rapper of all time
forreal. tech just lets his track record speak for him. when the music is done he's just the nicest dude ever.
He really is. Very nice guy. Then you got people who think he’s psycho because he rapped about some dark shit and painted his face up and died his hair for all them years. I been riding with this dude for decades. Huge heart. Very humble guy. Even when he disses people he’s really not dissing just kinda explaining shit. Instead of being mad he usually just makes people think. Never really got the whole scoop on Rittz saying fuck Tech but I don’t really keep up with that Garfield looking kat.
@@jacoballen6269 heyyyy now, rittz is crazy dope. the only guy on strange that could go toe-to-toe with tech, check out any of his features with him, especially Terminally Ill, that track is insane.
Travis Black oh I know but is he with Strange still? A few years ago he said fuck Tech on stage. I never figured out why.
Tech needs to put Kxng Crooked on a Worldwide Choppaz track
Sadly there will be no other WWC song as Speedom was the last one.
Listen to Terminally Ill - Forever M.C. it's pretty much that
@@iii2524 true
@@amineelaoufi4688 unfortunately
@@iii2524 that song was a masterpiece....everyone killed it but rittz verse was unbeatable in my opinion
I’d buy a Royce/Tech album without hearing a song from it. I’d love to see them collab for more than a couple songs.
Same here bro that would be a dope ass collab
Sheep
@@Excitegaming0 tf?
Thats like saying I'll fuck any play boy bunnies w/o knowing any of their names
anthony ramos - He means that he already knows it’s going to be some quality shit, so he doesn’t have to give it a listen first. He buys albums he likes, but with tech n Royce he doesn’t have to hear anything to know it’s dope.
Oh man.. i’d love to hear a yela verse on fragile.
I been waiting for it for so long …
@@tonyjuarez6539 It'll never happen bro 😂
Maybe Yelawolf didn’t want a “Control” incident 🤔
Brandin Stephenson yep I agree
100%
Control came out after fragile
@@quentinbaxter9555 umm ok 🤷♂️
nah Yelas flows are sick
Now I have to pause it and listen to that song
Thanks tech
JAy JaY don’t sleep on that, the tracks fire!
Damn , so much passion for the hiphop
Fragile still my favourite song from tech, as much as I like his chopping, this track is just perfect
Kendrick??? Yelawolf thought Kendrick couldn’t keep up??? Are you high? Lmaoo
Knowing yella wolf he probably was high 😂😂
@@nuclearwarheadrabbit6299 Yela is sober, and while kendrick is an amazing rapper, maybe even better than Yela, I don't think he could have kept up either
@@autechrefan1395 it was a joke but yeah true👌
@@nuclearwarheadrabbit6299 oh sorry it's heard to interpret text sometimes, have a good one bro!
Kendrick definately can keep up. Did you not hear the track?
Yelawolf shouldnt be disrespecting kendrick when he doesnt have an album close to the caliber of TPAB,Section 80,DAMN.,or MAAD city.I know he is talking about this specific instance on this song,but kendrick has shown enough angst and animus before.
Yea wannbes be like that
Section 80 is overrated as well as DAMN. Love Story was probably second on aoty with TPAB ahead of it. Yelawolf is an incredible talent you're selling him short.
Naw buddy he got bangers too
That story was from way before TPAB and DAMN.
@@travisporter357 he's a gimmick based on skin color. That country rap shit is cringeyy dude.
Yelawolf and Tech are literally two of my favorite rappers, would have really loved to see them working together again lol. hopefully some day in the future
Tech's right. That Crooked verse from Forever M.C. WAS 🔥🔥🔥
What's the name of the song bro?
That last part was funny '' I gave it to yelawolf he never did it bahahhahaha^^
Anybody who doubts Kendricks ability to do ANY track is crazy...including Yelawolf
Tech always gives props. That's why I like him. Krazyie bone said that Tech sounds the same on the stage and the studio. So... I don't know what that guy was on?
Agree. Heard him live for the first time in Portland OR back in 05! And every damn song sounded the same as on the album. Same goes for Andre Nickatina from Frisco!
"I'm a walkin talkin apocalypse , im a boss and as tall as an monolith i'm an author for all that is ominous" my nigga Crook beasted on that.
One of my favorite channels by a long shot!
shout out to !Mayday because Burns and Wrek can rap hard as well.
Can we get a tech yela twista and eminem collab!!!!
Hmmm I like where you head is at (pause)
Not without including Busta
@@sojiroseta98 But of course. Now you might as well throw Royce and Joyner in there too.
Just a whole wolrdwide choppers 3 album i guess
@Dreamer That would be the illest 30 minute record.
Rigarmortus. That's all I gotta say.
Yo, exactly!!!!
That songs so chopped up lmao
Ya boi Kenny G cap
oh yea yea
@@YaBoiKennyG how
ITS GREAT SEEING MCS GET TOGETHER ADN TALK ABOUT THE RAP GAME
Love Crook, dope interview but......it’s kinda funny we get a Crooks Corner after Joey took off with the Pull Up/podcast 😂
Facts
Tech is dope af. I remember my freshman year I went to his concert when he came to Alaska and got to kick it wit him after the show. Legendary.
CROOKED A REAL LYRICIST .....TECH.9 IS DOPE ......
Ikr? Tech is dope but crooked is a better lyricist imo
They are both elite
@@lucidjackson8291 Straight up facts
A remix with Yelawolf would of been nice. You let us down Yelawolf
One of the best songs in hip hop period
I love Tech's personality
I'd like to hear his take on all of Yelawolfs freestyles
To see Crooked sitting infront of Tech is mindblowing! somebody needs to make a T-shirt out of that alone!
Now Logic and Joyner collabed 💯
I thought that song was wack man i expected so much more idk
@@luisr9501 the adhd and army thing I been doing first i must say
Check me out bro, much appreciated in advance
Both Monsters right there! I remember reading about Tech 9 (20 years ago) in the source magazine as a new up coming rapper! Time flys
Kendrick was the best part
Lol no
I sweafagawd
Yela on that with Tech and Kendrick would have been so fucking amazing. Regardless it’s one of my favorite tracks to this day. Glad it’s a hit, I thought it’s always been severely underrated.
Tech!💜🔥Loving theese vids fs fs😁🙌🔥🔥🔥
This dropped a day after my bday & shoutout Tech I played call of duty with him when I was like 13/14 on ps3
I’d love to hear a version of that with yela in it
All three of these dudes are the best at what they do.
Chino XL is underrated with the youngsters
Nah thanks to the internet I've been listening to him since 2009 and now I'm 21 lol
Salvador Ibarra he was Eminem before Eminem though Marshal surpassed him with time
i would have loved to hear Yelawolf on Fragile, but im kinda glad he didn't hop on it... it was a very strong duet with just k dot and ninna..... speaking of tho its about time Tech and Yela made another track
Yela kendrick and Tech on Fragile wouldve been insane
L.A.F by Rittz ft. Yellawolf, Royce and King Crook...Nuff said!
Agreed
Crooked eye iz tha backbone of tha West Coast!
Kxng Crooked of the coast
Tech is the most wholesome rapper in the game. I want to go grocery shopping with him
I just wanna hear Stevie Stone on everything.
I met Stevie Stone. Really cool dude
2 of my favorite cats out... never disappoint. That good Hip Hop is still around, u just have to dig to find it.
Man I really would've loved to hear Yela on that.
Tech x kendrick x yela × mayday would have been crazy... i like that its short though. There's 0% filler in that joint
My favorite Kendrick verse was on fragile. I honestly didn’t think he could’ve either. I’m not really a huge fan of Kendrick but he straight up murdered that song.
Yelawolf on any song is great.
How many people are now going to listen to Forever M.C
Catfish billy needs to do a remix then lol your awesome btw much love tech
All the Forever MC songs are so dope
Word.
Tech N9ne The Definition Of Legendary
Crooked asked a question. His name came first, "aight you ain't gotta answer no more questions Tech" lmao
Tech nine is awesome lol he's so supportive
Tech a real 1 but y he over here looking like dark sidious
S lol
Cause that's Tech lmao
Darth.
@@TerryTheChunin synonym for dark.
theclanavenger lol what? The character he’s referring to is named “darth sidious”... there aren’t synonyms for names.
Kdot can adapt and switch style on any track u put him in.. he be doing some weird shit sometimes but still ends up being dope. Dude is unique.. not trying to do it like everyone else. Basically a trendsetter that most artist nowadays copy. So i dont know why yella would say that unless he's just trying make a spot for himself in that track in desperation to get back up in the game
Everytime somebody doubts Kendrick they come up so wrong
Crook snapped as usual on that forever mc shit that was incredible to hear all those dope ass MCs go on that track fucking great track for pure lyrcism and raw flow need more true MCs to get together on tracks like that
I hope they talk about the Speedom
Krizz killed that sh!t...! Em tried too hard.
@@2869may Yea bro everybody been sleeping on Krizz verse
@@aimanjate8986 He don't get enough credit period... He's really fvcking good...!
He's really good on Rittz's "Say No More" and "The Formula" too.
Fragile has to be one of the best Tech songs out till today. I fuck with his new music a lot, I used to be against it but I grew up. I need to hear how this man has matured and been through some shit. Much respect
Royce and big Shawn 100 is crack
I would really like to hear yellow wolf do fragile..its not too late for more greatness!
We need a formal apology yelawolf, there is no style that Kdot cant body, shit its been what? A year since he bodied a damn RIch the kid feature?? Nuff said even the mumble rappers arent safe 😂
Fax
sojiro B
Stop being a dumb ass trying to get mumble rappers to compete with lyrical. Two styles. Two different objectives.
i highly doubt kendrick could compete with A-F-R-O, RA, Twisted Insane, Krayzie,Bizzy , Joey, Meech
@@njper123 mmmhm......Nah my fellow commenter, starting at the beginning of rap. The past 50 years has given birth to mumble rap much more than you or half of this generation realize.
@@vestysteiner9480 kendrick out rapped Joey on Joey's song anc meechy darko is good but not better than kdot
Bruh, his explanation of the song fragile... I had no idea🤘
It amazes me that twista doesn’t get brought up in the Conversation of choppers mostly a lot of the choppers get their style from 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Tech has given him shout outs and respect he said 'If you ain't in my circle of choppers you miss dick
Cause me and my nigga Twista ruler, and that's it'
@@anthonygardea4934 Right
GRap TheGOAT yeah twista adrenaline rush is where a lot of the speed rappers got that shit from
dang, that woulda been litter than it already was for sure🔥
Should do a remix of fragile with tech, yelawolf, Kendrick and Token
Thumbs down for the Token part
Your not into people who can rhyme are you, i bet you have lil xan and lil pump in your playlist, try some bobby digital or nas or another rapper who can tell a story with words....ya know like tech and Token, skill is more than repetitive chorus lines or didn't anyone ever tech you that
@@anthonygardea4934 no disrespect ment but seriously give credit to the people who rap fast and clear
Tech9 is geeked, sniffeling @ the end....much love....BLOW
Tech needs to meet K.A.A.N. That would be a dope collab
Jay Money He probably already knows about him. KAAN is working on an album with Dr Dre and Busta Rhymes. Tech N9ne just signed King Iso who’s about equal to KAAN, so he’s focused on propping him up.
@@myjciskate4 thanks for the info. Say you in another vid talking about intellectual rappers like Aesop, Milo and Busdriver. I got them in my playlist now, thanks for the knowledge.
Jay Money No, bro.
Goin to listen to fragile again...thanks yelawolf
You Should Have Put The Living Legend’s Bone Thugs-N-Harmony On The Song
Years ago I wouldve been super stoked for that. Now a days krayzie is the only one still ripping it up.
Magusforever True
Naw bro check out that Carbon Monoxide Bizzy Bone!!!!
King Crook has the BEST hip hop podcast by far
*yela* "never did it" 😂😂
Fragile's a fukin hittt! love that shit!!
Kdot definitely brought it
Twista
Krazy Bone
Mystical
Fragile remix? And notice they never gave them the 3 emcees to match with tech lol
That would be dope. And we already know Eminem is on of the 3
I would love to see wolf put a verse on that!!!
Bizzy bones new album is gnna be fire
Btnh 4 life
Tech always has to try to prove himself and rap during interviews. You ain’t got shit to prove my guy. You the shit.
Say Tech looks like a remix is in order
Thanks for the Forever MC suggestion.
Yella thinking he's better than Kendrick is fucking crazy to me. He can rap but I don't get what the big deal is with Yella. Kendrick would stomp this guy on a mic.
Jedi counsel weighs ounce now feeling ready to bounce
I love that Kdot verse
Maybe do another 1 and let’s see bc all tree of yous are legendary now in my eyes
How could he think that
Facts!#
He was so worried about cadence he forgot Kendrick has literally the most substantial music of all.
koby va right bro. It just don’t make sense
Yo I love that song going 2 play it as close my eyes
I'm telling you Flesh-N- Bone specifically was extremely fast.
Krayzie and Bizzy go just as fast except they got a much smoother flow. Flesh takess a very specific taste because how choppy his flow is. I like him on some songs, But Krayzie is great all day.
Bruuh we needed that yelawolf ft. Man damn shame we never getting anything like that
