May 3, 2024 (Los Angeles, CA) Upholding a creative hot streak, chart-topping multiplatinum hip-hop legend and the most successful independent rapper of all-time, Tech N9ne shares a dynamic new collabos single entitled “Boomer Rang” with Stevie Stone and featuring K.A.A.N. and Ubi out now via Strange Music.
Materializing out of a haze, the track’s ominous keyboard loop gives way to a punchy beat as Tech’s razor-sharp lyricism cuts as deeply as ever. He alternates between observing and philosophizing, going on to profess, “I studied the law of attraction, and every action got a reaction.” He activates a fiery flow absorbed by an equally impressive onslaught courtesy of Stevie Stone, K.A.A.N., and Ubi. As the hypnotic hook echoes, the soundscape melts into a stirring trumpet solo.
As always with Tech and collabos, expect the unexpected—and then-some!
It comes on the heels of “P.O.W.” featuring Marley Young. It has amassed 361K Spotify streams and received looks from Hip Hop Over Everything and more.
Breaking ground once more, Tech joins forces with Kansas City Symphony for a very special first-of-its-kind performance tomorrow, May 4, at Midland Theatre. The show sold out in advance, and he spoke at-length about what to expect in various interviews.
IN KANSAS CITY profiled him and noted, Nobody in the audience knew the cute 4th grader from Wayne Minor projects who was slaying the talent show with his moonwalk would become an internationally famous rapper and head up his own record label. But they knew Aaron Dontez Yates had it, that special combination of innate talent, drive, and charisma that can’t be taught.” Moreover, KC Studio applauded how, “Tech N9ne maintains a deep affinity for his hometown and its musical ecosystem.”
In March, he delivered the collabos anthem “You Know Where You Can Go.” It has already piled up nearly 400K Spotify streams as well as 143K YouTube views on the music video.
