In March 2013, during an interview with The Arizona Daily Wildcat, Tech N9ne revealed the album has divided into three separate parts titled Fire, Water and Earth. It's always been there, but it's getting bigger having to prove to fans and critics that we ain't goin' nowhere. It's super personal and I've got a big chip on my shoulder again. I'm telling stories that I've never told – that I was afraid to tell on some songs.
It feels like it's Hell, Purgatory and Heaven all over again. I don't mind that it contradicts itself because that's what people do. It's so beautiful because the King, the Clown, and the G are still present on this album.
On one song I say, 'The saint is ours', like we're in the saint's corner and then I have another song called 'I'm Not A Saint'. What I mean by that is that it's contradictory. All I can say about it now is that it's a very human album. The features that I'm going for are something you would never imagine. The beats sound nothing like anything you've ever heard me on. During the preview on the Strange Music blog, Tech N9ne spoke about what to expect from the album, saying: On February 8, 2013, the album was first announced on the Strange Music blog. Also faring well commercially, the album sold 58,300 copies in its first week of sale, and debuting at number four on the US Billboard 200. The album received widespread acclaim from critics. Something Else was supported by two singles, "So Dope (They Wanna)" and " Fragile". The album features guest appearances from B.o.B, Big K.R.I.T., CeeLo Green, The Doors, The Game, Kendrick Lamar, Serj Tankian, T-Pain, Trae tha Truth, and Wiz Khalifa, among others including several artists from Tech N9ne's Strange Music imprint. Production on the album was handled during 2012 to 2013, primarily by frequent collaborator Seven, among others such as Young Fyre, Drumma Boy, and Fredwreck. The album has broken up into three portions – Earth, Water & Fire. It was released on July 30, 2013, by Strange Music, RBC Records and INgrooves.
Something Else is the thirteenth studio album by American rapper Tech N9ne.
