TECH N9NE & E-40 - STRANGE WID’ IT TOUR - May 19 – Nashville – Marathon Music Works
TECH N9NE & E-40 CO-HEADLINE STRANGE WID’ IT TOUR THIS SPRING FEATURING SPECIAL GUEST KING ISO
May 19 in Nashville at Marathon Music Works
This spring, Tech N9ne and E-40 join forces to co-headline what promises to be the hottest hip-hop jaunt of 2026—the Strange Wid’ It Tour. These two rap titans have linked up for tours in the past and collaborated on classic tracks such as E-40’s “Zombie” [feat. Tech N9ne & Brotha Lynch Hung] and Tech N9ne’s “No K” [feat. E-40 & Krizz Kaliko].
For a full month of live insanity, Strange Wid’ It will canvas North America, beginning on April 22 at The Astro in La Vista, NE, visiting markets coast-to-coast, and concluding with what promises to be a monumental homecoming for Tech N9ne on May 24 at The Midland Theater in Kansas City, MO. Strange Music’s own King Iso will be the tour’s special guest, igniting the proceedings each evening.
Tech N9ne and E-40 both stand out as elite lyricists of the highest order and showstopping performers, making this a must-see bill. Tech N9ne will be drawing a powerhouse set from his extensive, celebrated catalog of rapid-fire bangers, multi-platinum anthems, and fan favorite gems, including last year’s acclaimed 5816 Forest LP. Fans can expect E-40 to pop out with his own arsenal of extensive multiplatinum hits, too.
MORE ABOUT TECH N9NE:
Tech N9ne changed everything the world knew about hip-hop. He didn’t follow the rules. He didn’t need a major label. He didn’t wear the uniform. He didn’t even call one of the coasts home. Instead, he turned Kansas City, MO, into ground zero for the evolution of the culture, sending aftershocks through not just music, but also sports, video games, television, film, and fashion. With billions of streams, dozens of RIAA gold and platinum plaques, and hundreds of sold-out shows under his belt, he’s easily the hardest-working artist and entrepreneur in the game. He has notched four Top 5 debuts on the Billboard 200 and clinched the record for “most Top 10 albums on the Billboard Rap Chart.” He has delivered hits in three decades—whether it be the platinum-certified “Caribou Lou” in the 00’s, the gold-certified “Fragile” [feat. Kendrick Lamar, ¡Mayday!, Kendall Morgan] in the 10’s, or his biggest smash yet in the 20’s with “Face Off” featuring Joey Cool, King Iso, and Dwayne Johnson. In 2024, he shook the Billboard Rock charts by linking up with Falling In Reverse and Alex Terrible of Slaughter To Prevail on “Ronald” and sold out a show with the Kansas City Orchestra. If you trace the origins of Kendrick, Jelly Roll, and more, you’ll find Tech as an early champion and collaborator on pivotal tracks. Beyond sold-out headline tours, he has performed on NPR’s Tiny Desk and ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel LIVE! Plus, he has graced the cover of XXL and caught the attention of Variety, People, TMZ, NY Post, Today, and Entertainment Weekly. He co-founded Strange Music as a home for his output. Now, the company’s Kansas City headquarters stretches across six buildings: Strange Music (label offices), Strangeland (recording studios, soundstage), Strange World (merchandise manufacturing plant), Strange Box (vehicles), Strange Carwash, and Strange Works (construction company). It’s no wonder the Forbes “Cash Kings” list boasts Tech’s inclusion year after year. Not to mention, he teamed up with KC’s own Boulevard Brewery for his craft beer Bou Lou. 35 years into an unprecedented journey, he’s picking up the pace in 2025 with more to come.
