He's never been broadcast on mainstream radio... except for his home town. And I don't think he's ever been on MTV either.

When "Imma Tell" dropped, it had Hot97 airtime. When you get Hot97 airtime, there's no denying being mainstream.

In early 2007, Tech N9ne was featured on the MTV program I'm From Rolling Stone. In December 2007, Tech N9ne's song "Caribou Lou" was featured on an episode of MTV's My Super Sweet 16, during the scene in which the birthday girl received her car.[13] In summer 2008, Tech N9ne's song "Earthquake" was featured on an episode of MTV's America's Best Dance Crew in which the crew had to visually convey the title of the song in their performance.[14]

pfft barely, you're not gonna walk the street hearin too many niggas sayin "you hear that tech?" most of the people you talk too wont know who he is.... period. at least the people that generate most of the revenue for hip hop as a whole. unless your saying by technicality, because his cd is indeed sold at your local bestbuy, he is mainstream. but its still kind of "meh" considering many many people don't who he is or what he's capable of.


wayne is mainstream... but tech?

*plays rednose by techn9ne*


"I feel like the industry givin me vivid stupidy
When they distribute these fictitious sissies
When I rip it so serious and wickedly"

personally i feel if tech really went mainstream, i mean if he REALLY went mainstream...wayne would not even be uttered out of any child's mouth. and obviously that has not happened.

Trust me... between highschool, college, and work... I felt like I was the only person who even knew who Tech was. But then I go to his concerts... and there's a shit ton of people, like sold out, open the doors, and rock this bitch out of control, type ish <,<
