(AllHipHop News) Tech N9Ne’s indie label Strange Music wants to prove they have the “livest” audience – quite literally.

Strange Music announced the lineup and dates for “Tech N9ne’s “Independent Powerhouse Tour 2016.”

The excursion will feature six artists from the Strange Music imprint and each artist will have to prove why they’re worthy of being signed to such a storied label.

So, Ces Cru, Stevie Stone, ¡Mayday!, Rittz, Krizz Kaliko and Tech N9ne himself will hit the highway from March 30 until April 28.

Tech and his formidable roster of independent artists will visit cities like Tulsa, New Orleans, Atlanta, New York City, Cleveland, Chicago and other major markets.

Being able to play live is one of the top qualities Tech N9Ne looks for when he is signing a new artist.

Tech believes the chemistry in the studio and on the road is what has made the record label great.

“It takes a group of people, a lot of people to create an epic masterpiece and that’s what we always do,” Tech N9ne told AllHipHop.com in a statement released today (March 28). “Strange Music is a bright light, man.”

The “Independent Powerhouse Tour 2016” will build upon a successful 2015 for Tech N9ne and Strange Music.

Last year, the rapper dropped Special Effects, which debuted as the #2 Rap album and the #3 Indie album.

Tech followed up four months later with the compilation Strangeulation 2, which debuted as the #1 Rap, R&B/Hip-Hop, and Indie album in the country upon its release in November.
