Tech N9ne is ready to remind the world exactly where he came from. The Kansas City legend is set to drop his new album, ‘5816 Forest’, June 27, 2025. It’s already shaping up to be one of his most personal records to date.
Tech N9ne’s 5816 Forest album, nods directly to the address where Strange Music Inc. first took shape. This isn’t just a name, it’s a statement. Tech is going back to the foundation, back to the spot where the independent hustle that changed the game was born. Judging by the energy around the release, he’s doing it with zero compromise.
Visually, the promo art says it all. Tech seated on the porch of the house that started it all, decked out in red, staring down the future with that signature fire in his eyes. It’s stripped back, grounded, and real. A reflection of what this album promises to be. Available in CD and 2-piece vinyl, ‘5816 Forest’ is gearing up for a proper physical release that fans can actually hold in their hands.
Expect rapid fire flows, genre bending production and that raw honesty that’s kept Tech at the top of the independent rap world for decades. With pre orders now live at strangemusicinc.net, fans won’t want to sleep on this one.
RDV Video
‘RDV’ feels like classic Tech N9ne with a 2025 edge. It’s sharp, unfiltered and built to tear through speakers. It’s the kind of track that reminds fans why Tech’s stayed untouchable for so long. The rawness of the single pairs perfectly with the 5816 Forest theme, going back to where it started. Of course though, with even more venom. If this is the opening shot, the full album is going to be unstoppable.
