‘Kocky’ Featuring Jay Rock And Kutt Calhoun
Traveling through Strangeland, Tech N9ne crosses paths with Kutt Calhoun and Jay Rock on the bass boosted “Kocky”.
Produced by David Sanders II, “Kocky” knocks with some mean strings and gives Welcome To Strangeland its first street banger. Almost like an homage to the West Coast, the music is very deliberate in its stop and go rhythm, giving the MCs plenty of room to boss up. Gritty and larger than life, “Kocky” thumps like a beast as it creates a giant like presence for Tech N9ne. If bragging is the name of the game, then David Sanders’ production is the perfect fit for this ego driven anthem.
