Big Sean recently gave a shout out to Tech N9ne on MTV.com for a preview of this weekend’s edition of Sucker Free Sunday. The MC and Def Jam signee referred to Tech N9ne as an “independent beast” and goes on to relate Tech’s struggle to independent success to his own.

It’s quite the shout out from one of today’s high-profile MCs, whose album Finally Famous just came out this Tuesday (June 28, 2011).
