Rapper TechN9ine makes triumphant return

KANSAS CITY, Mo., Nov. 10 (UPI) -- After four years of releasing no new material, Kansas City, Mo., rapper Tech N9ne is enjoying success with his new album, "Everready."

The rapper, whose last album was 2002's "Absolute Power," has already seen his new track, "Jellysickle," garner more than 1 million listens on the rapper's MySpace Web page, said AllHipHop.com.

Directly behind that single is Tech N9ne's "Bout Ta' Bubble," that has been met with a very respectable 500,000 listens in the last month.

The Kansas City rapper, whose real name is Aaron Dontez Yates, said that his new album follows closely with both his last album and its 2001 predecessor, "Anghellic."

"This is 'Anghellic,' 'Absolute Power' combined," Yates said of his most recent endeavor. "It has the personal stuff 'Anghellic' had or the party stuff that 'Absolute Power' had. I think this is my best work."

The Web site said that Yates, who is currently on tour with fellow rappers Bone Thugs-N-Harmony and DMX, released the album in part through his own Strange Music company.
