Today, the blog GreenLabel.com (a blog funded by the makers of Mountain Dew) put together their list of the Rap Power Rankings for May 2015!  Last month, Tech N9ne hit the #10 spot.  This month, he moved all the way up to #6 ahead of prominent mainstream rappers such as Drake, Kanye, and Snoop!

They say that they have a “secret formula” to come up with these rankings, but whatever that formula is, it’s dope that they’re showing Tech so much love!  Check out what they have to say about him.

From GreenLabel.com:

6. Tech N9ne

Last Month: #10, Rose 4 Spots

There’s really only so many times we can say it: sleep on Tech N9ne at your own peril. He was hovering around the number 10 spot last month thanks to the building buzz around hisSpecial Effects album, and in May the album dropped, accomplishing everything we predicted it would.

Not only did the project feature some very, very heavyweight names (proving Tech is enormously respected by his peers), not only did it receive critical acclaim, not only did fans snatch it up, but it debuted at number one on the rap charts, and at number four overall. That’s right, an 100% indie rapper from Kansas City known for painting his face dropped the number four album in the country. It might not be as unlikely a story as Lil B swinging the fate of NBA playoff teams, but it’s pretty high up there. Mainstream hip-hop may still refuse to acknowledge what a powerhouse Tech is building, but here we’re more than happy to give Mr. N9ne his just due.
