Aside from the gold and platinum joints Tech N9ne has had, money also has had three albums in the Billboard top 10, each peaking at #4, plus four more albums that peaked in the top 15 (2x #12, 2x #14)

I know folks wanna call dude underground, but that level of charting kinda says you ain't.

Because he has a fanbase that is buying his records?

 

[Goldie]

Some artists might have been mainstream at one point but then settled into the underground.

 

[5th Letter]

That means they’re mainstream 4 life?

 

[NotRol]

Seems like a fair criteria, cuz if an artist has gold and platinum plaques, how are they underground?

what disqualifies him from being underground is limited exposure?

I’d assume you need to fit every criteria to be an underground artist?

A lot of people were going to name Mos Def... the nigga has Gold plaques and been in movies lol That's not an underground rapper to me.

Like I said tho, I'll defer to yall.

 

[Lou Cypher]

I picked: big krit, DOOM, phonte and freddie

 

[Water Ur Seeds]

Choose 4 different types of artists...

Mos, Benny, DOOM, Sean P...

Feel like Monch should be in there too...

I would had nominated Vinnie Paz and Masta Ace... Not sure if Ace is considered underground though...

 

[Revolver Ocelot]

How is Mos a option when he got 2 gold albums

 

[Griot Vision]

DOOM and Tech Nine were the most obvious answers

Sean Price is a good answer

don't consider Mos Def or Talib underground, but solid answer

Tech has gold albums and singles

 

[Griot Vision]

Tough. MF Doom, Tech N9ne is for sure up there, Currensy, Boldy James, feel like im forgetting a few may edit this later lol

Edit: Starlito, Hus Kingpin, Murs

Tech has gold album and singles

Ya'll had to constantly change the goal posts to make sure the obvious underground goat didn't win.

More like y'all completely ignored the criteria set forth in the OP and because ya boy don't fit that criteria you mad.
