With Tech N9ne’s recent Bad Season mixtape, Kutt Calhoun delivers another scene-stealing performance with verses on the three tracks he was able to appear on.  Despite only being able to appear on such a limited number due to his absence during the making of the mixtape, Kutt’s bars on “Livin’ Like I’m Dyin’”, “Sex To The Beat”, and “Down For The Block” are sure to make their mark on listeners fresh to the sound of the Strange Music MC.  I sat down with Kutt and discussed his thoughts on the Bad Season mixtape, even asking him if he thought it was made in his absence because of his scene-stealing tenencies.  Kutt also addresses the different appeal he has than Tech N9ne and Krizz Kaliko, stressing that he feels he needs to work harder than his counterparts at the label in order to reach his target audience.

Looks like Kutt Calhoun came correct on Tech N9ne’s upcoming Bad Season mixtape.  Surprise?  Not to fans of the Kansas City Chief, which now includes DJ Whoo Kid.  The mixtape DJ took time to drop some love for Kutt on his Twitter, and said the following:

“@KuttCalhoun and @KrizzKaliko —-> Im officially a FAN of you guys — ya’ll killed the @TechN9ne mixtape —-DAMN!!!”

However the props didn’t stop there, as DJ Whoo Kid popped up later to comment on Kutt’s latest album Raw and Un-Kutt:
