Commemorating their 20th anniversary, XXL Magazine invited 20 artists who have influenced hip-hop in their own, unique way to celebrate.

Who better to represent doing their “own thang” than independent legend, Tech N9ne?

In addition to his own cover and photoshoot, Tech also sat down for both a written interview and video segment where he discussed the current climate in hip-hop, his biggest challenge, and Dr. Dre’s influence. Check it out below and go pick up your copy of XXL’s Tech N9ne edition out now!
