beyond Strange Music. An artist so comfortable with cross-genre experimentation and forward-thinking lyricism played it surprisingly safe with the actual “collabos,” but Tech’s in-house team is more than good enough to keep the project in rotation for dedicated fans." Eric Diep of XXL gave the album an L rating, saying: "There’s a sense of realization on Strangeulation that shows Tech’s motivated to become a part of the elite rap league that includes Eminem and Jay Z. With his latest collabo effort before Special Effects (his 15th studio album), Tech is viewed as the big homie among his peers and delivers his best work to allow them to rise to the occasion. This time around, it just seems the Technicians are the only ones listening." Steve 'Flash' Juon of RapReviews gave the album a seven out of ten, saying "It's a good album, even an above average album, one I'd be happy I bought at the merch table whether I was showing love or not and whether it came with a collector's coin that as much as I like it I feel may get misplaced once I put this CD on the shelf. Tech fans should definitely make the investment, and it's a strong teaser for Murs' official label debut in June." Commercial performance The album debuted at number 5 on the Billboard 200 chart, with first-week sales of 36,000 copies in the United States. In its second week, the album dropped to number 33, selling 8,300 copies, bringing its total album sales to 44,000 copies. The album has sold 83,000 copies in the US as of October 2015.
