Tech N9ne’s “Everready (The Religion)” captivates when focusing on its aggressive nature, and while it tapers off in a few places due to filler and slower tracks, it still stands as a thrilling hip-hop album.

I just wasted my whole day listening to one of the worst Hip Hop albums of all time. This made me wanna cry. This is wack af.

Rap Reviews
The rest of the rap world is just going to have to learn to accept “Everready” as the new religion, because whether you hate it or love it he’s gonna preach it his way and his way only. If you’re open-minded enough to listen, that shit’s gonna be gospel.

Legends Will Never Die
As a comeback album, it’s not a classic like his last 2 albums are but it is enjoyable for the most part. Production could’ve been better on a couple tracks, but Tech still has it in him

Like the gun of a similar name, Tech N9ne spits fast, but jams easily. Everready is no exception. A handful of records standout, but the simplistic sex and party drawl slows the organic appeal that so many fans found in Anghellic and Absolute Power. But as those efforts were tailor made to Tech's existing fans, this album riskily steps out of bounds for some mass appeal.

Rock Music Review
Unlike the anthology Vintage Tech or his last studio record, Absolute Power, Everready feels more like business Tech. Throughout the record, Tech repeatedly shows that the music industry is changing him. Even so, Everready proclaims a lust for living, a passion for rap.

If you are like me, however, and just are a Tech fan who wants to hear good music and really has no great expectations beforehand, you will really enjoy this CD. Overall, this CD has a better all-around appeal to more people (with the different productions and more of a party-based album), which isn’t a bad thing, but I enjoyed a bigger percentage of the Personal Songs than the Party songs.
