Therapy is the sixth extended play (EP) by American rapper Tech N9ne.

[2] The EP was produced by Ross Robinson and features guest appearances from Krizz Kaliko, Bernz, Wrekonize, Caroline Dupuy Heerwagen and Tyler Lyon.

Session musicians include guitarist Wes Borland of Limp Bizkit and Black Light Burns and hardcore punk drummer Sammy Siegler.

[3] On February 8, 2012, on the Strange Music blog, it was announced that the EP would be released on November 5, 2013.

[4] In September 2013, during an interview with Artistdirect, Tech N9ne spoke about recording the EP, saying: "It was beautiful I went to Ross Robinson's studio in Venice Beach, and I sat in the sand and wrote from my head.

I’m a big Doors fan, without Jim Morrison, without Robby Krieger, without Jon Densmore, without Ray Manzarek rest his soul, I would have never called this Strange Music.

A lot of our music throughout the years, such as “Riot Maker” [from Everready (The Religion)] has a rock edge.

"[8] He also spoke about what inspired the song "Hiccup", saying: "Wow, it’s crazy you picked that one because it came to me in a dream.

Ross Robinson was in my dream, sitting at his desk in front of his monitor at his studio.

When I went to the studio the next day, Wes [Borland] was there, as was Sid Wilson and DJ Starscream [from Slipknot].

I told Ross about the dream for the idea and he said “Show me.” I was a little nervous but I busted it out right in front of them, then I thought “Okay I’m a little embarrassed, I’m going to go up the street and have lunch.” I came back an hour later and they had the skeleton of the beat waiting for me.

I just went out there and wrote what was on my mind, I was watching CNN earlier and I was seeing a lot of things that were disturbing me, like the whole Amanda Berry and Charles Ramsey situation.

There was also that whole Vatican cover up about the priests touching the little boys; there are messed up things in this world.

gave the album a seven out of ten, saying "While it's never been a secret that Tech N9ne's music often crosses into the heavy metal and rock realms, Therapy officially lets the cat out of the bag.

As a hip-hop album, Therapy is heavily disconnected, but as a cross-genre project, this EP stands on its own.

"[11] Rick Florino of Artistdirect gave the album five out of five stars, saying "Throughout, Tech and Ross talk, making up the sessions.

"[10] David Jeffries of AllMusic gave the album four out of five stars, saying "The supportive numbers are nearly as strong as the highlights, plus the skits whiz by fast enough, allowing the listener some time to deal with the adrenaline overdose.

Only bad news about this Therapy session is that it's a creative, cathartic blast that ends way too soon.

"[9] The album debuted at number 32 on the Billboard 200 chart, with first-week sales of 10,000 copies in the United States.
