Aaron Dontez Yates , better known by his stage name Tech N9ne , is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, record producer, actor, and entrepreneur. In 1999, he and business partner Travis O'Guin founded the record label Strange Music. He has sold over two million albums and has had his music featured in film, television, and video games. In 2009, he won the Left Field Woodie award at the mtvU Woodie Awards.
His stage name originated from the TEC-9 semi-automatic handgun, a name given to him by rapper Black Walt due to his fast-rhyming chopper style. Yates later applied a deeper meaning to the name, claiming that it stands for the complete technique of rhyme, with "tech" meaning technique and "nine" representing the number of completion.
Early life
Yates was born and raised in Kansas City, Missouri. He began rapping at a very early age, and would rap the letters of his name in order to remember how to spell it. His father, Carlton Cook was estranged from the family and his mother suffered from epilepsy and lupus when he was a child, which emotionally affected him and inspired him to "search for God". He would explore abandoned buildings with his best friend, hoping to catch a ghost on film. He attended Southwest High School in Kansas City.
Personal life
Yates was married in 1995, but separated in 2005. Yates filed for a divorce in 2015 and it was finalized in November 2017, 12 years after they were initially separated. Yates is a Kansas City Chiefs and Kansas City Royals fan. Before the Chiefs played in the 2019 AFC Championship game, he released a song titled "Red Kingdom". In the song he references several Chiefs players including deceased linebacker Derrick Thomas, as well as players from that season including Patrick Mahomes, Tyreek Hill, Travis Kelce, Eric Berry, Harrison Butker, Justin Houston, Chris Jones, and Dee Ford.
