2/11/2022 0 Comments Tech n9ne new cd 2016This morning at Strangeland Studios with the Ladies of Hope House Lees Summit during our news interview about me donating the bras we received at our shows that we are giving to Domestic violence shelters! They were so nice and thankful! I told them how I was one of those kids that had to witness my mom getting beat by an old boyfriend back when I was in 3rd and 4th grade and how we were always running to a relatives house to get away from him.I told them how at one point we had to run all the way over to KCK and stayed in a house right on Quindaro for a while cause he beat her really bad that time so I had to do a bit of fourth grade over there in KCK at an elementary school called Benjamin Banneker. With my aunt because we were running from him." That's why I call myself the "Kansas City King," because not only was I born in Missouri, but because my mom lived in an abusive household we had to move out to Kansas City, Kan. "That's why I had to move from place to place-to get away from my mom's abusive boyfriend. "I don't wish that upon any kid because I was one of those kids," he emotionally explained. Her boyfriend often beat her so badly, she wound up in the hospital. Back when he was a Kansas City kid known only by Aaron Yates, he watched his mother suffer at the hands of a man she loved. This greater cause for all those bras stems from Tech N9ne's personal story of abuse and survival. So I thought let's not throw these bras away let's donate them to the houses that create shelter for the people who suffer from domestic violence." "If you're in that situation just go for your safety. "When you are in a situation like that they tell you to get out and leave everything," said Tech N9ne. Those people include domestic violence survivors at Hope House, a shelter that helps metro women and their children escape abusive homes. ![]()
