SUMMARY:STRANGE Wid' It Tour 2026: TECH N9NE and E-40
DESCRIPTION:Out of the Midwest\, Tech N9ne broke all of the rules\, subverted expectations\, dumbfounded the system\, and set a precedent for hip-hop and independent music often imitated (but never duplicated) by generations to follow. At the helm of his own Strange Music proudly based in Kansas City\, MO since 2000\, he has personally notched four platinum singles\, eleven gold singles\, and two gold albums. As a whole\, the Strange Music catalog also houses 23 RIAA gold and platinum records. The company’s Kansas City headquarters consists of 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). Representing the underground\, Tech is practically “a regular” on the Forbes “Cash Kings” list. Beyond gracing the cover of XXL and the stage of ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live!\, he wound up on the playlist of none other than Sir Elton John and performing to 1 million-plus at the parade for the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl victory. He’s the only artist (on this planet) who has collaborated with Eminem\, Tupac\, Lil Wayne\, and Kendrick Lamar as well as The Doors\, Slipknot\, System of a Down\, Deftones\, Jelly Roll\, and MGK. He holds down the record for “most Top 10 albums on the Billboard Rap Chart” and staked a spot in the Top 5 of the Billboard 200 four times. On top of a thriving self-sufficient merchandising empire\, he notably joined forces with Kansas City’s own Boulevard Brewery for his craft beer Bou Lou. After three decades in the game\, the rapper landed “the biggest hit of his career” with 2021’s “Face Off” featuring Joey Cool\, King Iso\, and none other than megastar Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. In unprecedented fashion\, he ignited TikTok\, generated a quarter-of-a-billion streams\, and incited a frenzy from Variety\, People\, TMZ\, NY Post\, Today\, and Entertainment Weekly. Tech N9ne continued his journey in 2023 with the acclaimed BLISS and more to come. \n\n\n\nEarl “E-40” Stevens is a multiplatinum recording artist\, actor\, entrepreneur and New York Times best-selling author that hails from Vallejo\, California. Over the course of his 30+ year career in the music industry\, E-40 has firmly solidified his status as a living hip-hop legend\, having released several multiplatinum and gold studio albums\, mixtapes\, collaborations and hit singles\, including “U and Dat\,” “Tell Me When To Go\,” “Choices (Yup)\,” and “Function\,” among countless others.

SUMMARY:Tracy Lawrence
DESCRIPTION:With 13M albums sold and 18 No.1 singles\, Tracy Lawrence has solidified his status as a cornerstone of country music for more than thirty years. Even as he continues to release music and tour\, the CMA and ACM award winner’s ambitions have also extended to numerous media and charity projects. His interest in working with younger artists and being able to explore different topics led to the “TL’s Road House” podcast\, which has featured guests such as HARDY\, Jelly Roll\, Lainey Wilson and more. \nOver three decades into his decorated career\, Lawrence’s legacy continues to evolve. He spent 2024 touring with artists like Riley Green\, Luke Bryan\, Lainey Wilson and more on top of his first-ever headlining show at the Ryman\, which was sold out\, and he returned to the iconic venue this year with another sold-out show. After revisiting his catalog with the Hindsight 2020 Vol 1\, 2 and 3 and Live at Billy Bob’s Texas albums\, Lawrence released his Out Here In It EP\, available everywhere now. Meanwhile\, Lawrence continues to uphold his commitment to helping those in need across Middle Tennessee and beyond with his Mission:Possible non-profit committed to serving the homeless. From its humble beginnings cooking Thanksgiving dinners for the Nashville Rescue Mission to frying over 15K turkeys to date\, the organization has raised more than $1.3M for those in need. In recognition of his philanthropic efforts\, Lawrence was honored with the 2023 CRS Humanitarian Award. \n  \nTicket link: https://selectaseat.com/tracy

If you are a health care professional that can take vitals (please bring your own stethescope and wear scrubs) and are willing to help with this station\, please register and more details will be provided at a later time. \n \nThank you so much for your willingness to help us provide necessary services to our neighbors in Kansas City!
