Insane Clown Posse fabricated history with the Juggalo March in September, a beef that took abode on Washington, D.C.’s National Mall and alleged out the FBI for labeling the rap group’s fan abject a gang. Although the FBI hasn’t rescinded the label, the beef was a success, with Juggalos beyond the country amalgamation calm and assuming solidarity.

Speakers railed adjoin the ascent beforehand of abhorrence and intolerance. Juggalos agitated signs that said “Faygo, not Facism!” and “Black Juggalos Matter” and “Fuck Nazis.”
“America’s appear added than I anticipate they realized. A lot of bodies don’t appetite bigotry in this country anymore, man. They don’t appetite babble racism. They don’t appetite hate. That’s played out and ancient, man. And I feel like today we’re apery a lot of that bullshit. We’re apery the force adjoin it,” said ICP’s Agitated J to a army of animated Juggalos, anti-facists, and assemblage at the Lincoln Memorial.
2017 additionally marks the 25th ceremony of ICP’s admission anthology Carnival Of Carnage; the 20th ceremony of The Abundant Milenko; the 15th ceremony of The Wraith: Shangri-La; and the fifth ceremony of The Mighty Death Pop!
In account of ICP’s momentous year, I listened to all of the band’s 14 approved albums.
I’ve never listened to an ICP anthology or song in my life, so I had no abstraction what to expect. But I did it to accept America in 2017.

“It was a soft, affable night in the little boondocks of, of… Well, your town.”
These are the aboriginal words Insane Clown Posse’s Agitated J utters on Carnival Of Carnage anthology opener “Intro” and I’m already adulatory I never agreed to do this. I accept the accent of J’s address and how it’s ambience up not alone the anecdotal of the anthology but the assured storyline that ICP has congenital with its music (more on this later). But introducing the apple of ICP with this Sleepy Hollow fuckery? Appear on.

“The Juggla” samples some assembly from Prince’s “Kiss” and now I’m scouring the internet for any advice in affiliation to this. Did Prince accept of this sample? Did he anytime apprehend “The Juggla” in its entirety? Was Prince secretly a fan of ICP? In an alternating absoluteness Prince has accent the Gathering of the Juggalos while cutting amethyst face paint, and was animate on a collaborative anthology with ICP blue-blooded Insane Clown Prince.

“Bitch, I’ll go bottomward south/With a allotment of aureate hangin’ out my mouth” is an absolute affair that’s said on this song blue-blooded “Red Neck Hoe.” The angel is so evocative that bare of its abuse I can’t advice but laugh. The lyrics are evocative of the aboriginal time I heard 2 Live Crew. Blatant misogyny and sexism aside, I accept to accede above ICP affiliate John Kickjazz for rapping adjoin racism adjoin the end of the track, alike admitting it makes no faculty at all because the song is about accepting the best blue sex with a academic rural white woman.

1992 was weird, man. Aback afresh Kid Bedrock was actually advised one of Detroit’s bigger rappers, so abundant so that ICP paid him $600 to affection on Carnage so the anthology could be awash at Harmony House, one of Michigan’s bigger almanac abundance chains at that time. Bedrock appears on the clue “Is That You?” and I accept to say—fuck you Kid Bedrock for calling yourself a “n***a.” The alone acceptable that could potentially appear of this is when, while on the attack aisle for his accepted Michigan Senate run abutting year, the afterward alternation takes place:
Reporter (maybe me): Mr. Rock, aback in 1992 you already featured on a song by ICP alleged “Is That You?” Do you anamnesis this?
Kid Rock: Um… sure, yes. Why is this relevant?
Reporter: Well, you said the afterward in the track, “Boo-hoo muthafucka what ya cryin’ for? I’m that n***a that your allegation would die for.”
Kid Rock: Well… um… you see… *Kid Bedrock transforms into a baldheaded hawkeye and soars far and away, never to be apparent again*

ICP’s backroom are all over the abode on Carnage but at a time area bodies are agitation adjoin the abatement of Confederate statues beneath the guise of attention ancestry and history (read: white supremacy) it’s nice to apprehend J and Dope defiantly acknowledge “Fuck your insubordinate flag” on “Your Insubordinate Flag.” Of course, the bulletin gets adulterated because of the duo’s assurance on horrorcore tropes, but these aftermost six curve are so blithely black that they’re evocative of NWA’s “Fuck tha Police” in how they’re both unapologetic in their animadversion adjoin backbreaking forces:
Punk, I’ll put a bang in your baldheaded headScalp a baldheaded quickAnd your greasy-ass amateur association and shitAnd zip you up in a bagAnd I’ll bits on a motherfuckin insubordinate flagYeah bits on a insubordinate flag!

10:30pm
Now we’re on the additional album, The Ringmaster, which is area I’ll allocution about the adventure ICP has created through its releases. Ringmaster serves as the additional Joker’s Agenda in the group’s Dark Carnival mythology, with the Dark Carnival apery an afterlife area souls delay to see area they’ll go next—heaven or hell. Anniversary Joker’s Agenda tries to “save the animal soul” by assuming the angry that one has central themselves, with the aboriginal agenda (Carnival Of Carnage) actuality a representation of the ghettos and the abandon that occurs in them, and the additional one (The Ringmaster) actuality the ambassador of the carnival who’s actually the actualization of one’s sins.
In the book ICP: Abaft the Paint, J talked about the afflatus abaft the Joker’s Card, adage that the accumulation “wanted to accomplish a statement, to absolute our energy. We capital to mix ball and horror, and authority it up like a mirror to a burghal abounding of abyss and scrubs like us.” This is intricate as fuck and I acclaim ICP for still architecture on the ballad of this anecdotal that is basically the CarnEvil arcade bold meets a added abnormal adaptation of Saw, but the music fails to be as alluring as the concept.
10:42pm
“Mr. Johnson’s Head” is calmly my admired ICP clue so far, because the duo not alone calls out Columbus and how he’s admired in U.S. history books, but additionally calls out George Washington and Benjamin Franklin:
Fuck Washington, Benjamin, fuck ‘em allThey can blot my basics til’ they copse teeth abatement out
Mind you, they do this while cogent a apocryphal adventure about the annihilation of Mr. Johnson, a racist abecedary whose arch they decapitated.
11:27pm
Prior to ICP’s third album, Riddle Box, the accumulation had been warned by Jive Records’ Senior Vice President of Artists and Repertoire Jeff Fenster to not absolution an anthology that was over an hour long. Naturally Box is a 70-minute album. Say what you will about their music but at atomic ICP fights for artistic control. Granted, this was ICP’s alone absolution with Jive, but abuse the man nonetheless.
11:29pm
Of beforehand ICP has a song that retells the adventure of Edgar Allen Poe’s “The Tell-Tale Heart” alleged “Ol’ Angry Eye.” Do you anticipate Poe would’ve been a Juggalo? He would’ve been, right? Why am I accomplishing this to myself?
12:15am
The Abundant Milenko, ICP’s fourth album, is alluring for aggregate but the music. The anthology served as the aboriginal and aftermost for the accumulation beneath Disney’s Hollywood Records, which purchased ICP’s arrangement from Jive for $1 million. But agnate to Jive, ICP’s signing with Hollywood didn’t aftermost long, with the characterization deleting the album, catastrophe the group’s bout in abutment of it, and bottomward the band. Disney was already adverse backfire from the Southern Baptist Church (because of course) for announcement Gay Days at Disneyland, as able-bodied as bearing the ball Ellen. To abstain added altercation Disney cut all ties to ICP, declaring that the group’s anthology “did not fit the Disney image.” ICP had the aftermost laugh, with the accumulation accepting active by Island Records and The Abundant Milenko accepting appear as it was originally intended.
12:25am
A lot of money can change an artist’s complete for the bigger and it shows on The Abundant Milenko. The assembly sounds fuller; J and Dope complete like they’ve begin their voice. I enjoyed Carnage because of the bite of it all, abnormally aback it came to the two rappers’ voices. However, on both Ringmaster and Riddle Box, the duo articulate like they were aggravating to challenge the articulate stylings of Cypress Hill which took abroad from their personas. Instead of aural like baleful and deranged clowns they articulate like clowns who had accustomed their activity of abnegation up for rolling affidavit and a batter of weed. It’s auspicious to apprehend them acknowledgment to their roots while continuing to agreement on their delivery.

“Halls Of Illusion” is a actually acceptable song. Sure, I’m aberrant and bashed appropriate now but this clue is one of the arch I’ve heard. The angle is catchy; the assembly is evocative of West Coast gangsta rap; and Slash (of Guns N’ Roses fame) brings the song’s choir to activity with an overdrive guitar riff. Additionally fun fact: Slash is a self-professed fan of the bandage and reportedly was paid for this actualization in bottles of Wild Irish Rose (flavored adherent wines) at his request. Classic Slash.
12:51am
“What is a Juggalo?” is underwhelming which is black because this is technically the aboriginal Juggalo anthem. Because of ICP’s fan abject at the time it’s barefaced why the song fails to be added inclusive, with the song speaking to men only. Today Juggalos accept appear to beset bodies of capricious genders, as able-bodied as races, animal orientation, etc. But “What is a Juggalo?” is aloof about how a Juggalo will “eat Monopoly and bits out Connect Four.”
The aboriginal time ICP referred to its fan abject as Juggalos was in 1993 aback the accumulation was assuming “The Juggla.” The admirers responded actually to the name and, well, the draft is history. Some music critics accept against the name, suggesting that the appellation is agnate to the ancestral appellation “jigaboo.” But acquiesce me to allege on account of all Black bodies and say that the appellation juggalo isn’t racist, but we still feel a blazon of way that ICP accustomed Kid Bedrock to use the N-word.

The Amazing Jeckel Brothers is the best accomplished ICP anthology I’ve heard so far. A antithesis amid rap and bedrock seems to accept been begin on actuality and of beforehand bedfellow appearances from Snoop Dogg and Ol’ Dirty Bastard comedy a allotment in this. But the two additionally assume to be added antic in their lyrics alike admitting they’re still problematic. I’ll put it this way: B-horror films can be bad, abnormally aback they booty themselves too seriously. But some are self-aware, treading the band amid abhorrence and apology with a attention that’s impressive. Jeckel Brothers isn’t actually there yet but it’s an indicator of what ICP is able of aback it tries to be funny.
1:07am
Of beforehand I couldn’t aloof acknowledgment how Snoop and ODB popped up on an ICP anthology afterwards accouterment any background. The former’s adventure is straightforward: Snoop, who was active to No Limit Records at the time, reportedly didn’t appetite ICP to pay his label, instead allurement the accumulation to accord him $40,000 in a briefcase. ICP agreed and that’s how Snoop appeared on “The Shaggy Show.” However ODB’s adventure is a little added entertaining. Through Snoop, ICP affiliated with ODB and, afterwards reportedly advantageous him $30,000 for his feature, appeared on a song alleged “Bitches.” However, the song was afflicted to “Bitches” because ODB’s recording alone consisted of him circuitous about “bitches.” Ultimately, ICP was alone able to accomplish four rhymes out of the recording afterwards animate on it for a week, and its associates had to accommodate their rhymes. But it paid off, because ODB is actually the brilliant of the carnival appearance on the track.

Never in my activity did I anticipate I’d be authoritative coffee while alert to ICP’s sixth album, Bizaar, but actuality I am. Bizaar is a allotment of a bifold anthology the accumulation appear in October 2000 (the additional bisected of the anthology is alleged Bizzar but counts as the group’s seventh album) and so far it’s not that bad. By now ICP has had its aboriginal Gathering of the Juggalos; performed at Woodstock ‘99; and fabricated a cine (Big Money Hustlas if you appetite to watch).
Eminem, a adolescent Detroit rapper, has become a boilerplate success. Both artists allotment a agnate aesthetic, but one did it better. This is abnormally apparent on Bizaar.
ICP’s raps appear beyond as added ball amusement than horrorcore violence, affiliated to an adventure of Ren & Stimpy: “I’ll coursing Michael Jackson’s artificial surgeon acquaint him hey do me up,” the accumulation raps on “Fearless.” It’s adamantine not to be agnostic and anticipate of some of the over-the-top lyrics Eminem rapped on the showstopping Slim Shady LP.
He beat ICP at its own bold by actuality a flatly bigger rapper. Eminem’s articulation played a allotment in the attraction of his music. His delivery—cartoonish and exaggerated—contrasted his surreal and agitated agreeable content. By application the adapt ego of Slim Shady, Eminem was actually able to breed a character. Although ICP approved to do the same, it took some time to get there. ICP could’ve been bigger than Eminem, had it not been for Eminem himself.
10:20am
“Behind The Paint” is a acceptable song and it’s auspicious to apprehend ICP altercate the ills of fame. J blanket the song with this verse:
Another babe I don’t cartel to confidePlaying that role, it hurts insideHere I am cerebration she wants meShe alone wants that analgesic on her CDJust aback I couldn’t feel any worseBitch asked me if I could acrylic my face first
As bulky and sexist as the appeal ability be, it’s apocalyptic of fame—how bodies admire what you represent and not necessarily who you are. I achievement to apprehend added of this on added albums.
10:45am
Did you apperceive that this year a Boston Juggalo by the name of Richard Newton went to the top-40 radio abject Kiss 108 and requested that it comedy “My Axe,” a song from ICP’s seventh anthology Bizzar, while in control of an axe? Fortunately, no one was hurt.
12:00pm
The Wraith: Shangri-La and The Wraith: Hell’s Pit, ICP’s eighth and ninth albums respectively, are a lot.
They’re the end of the group’s Dark Carnival mythology, with both albums apery the sixth Joker’s Card. So what’s declared to feel like a acute cessation to a 10-year-old anecdotal (both albums were appear in 2002, 10 years afterwards the absolution of Carnival Of Carnage) feels camp and exhausted.
Where Shangri-La finds the souls ashore in the Dark Carnival accomplishing accretion and accepting into heaven, Hell’s Pit finds them all in hell. Personally, I enjoyed the above more, because it’s optimistic in a way that I haven’t heard from its predecessors. Both “Juggalo Homies” and “We Belong” action sentiments of accepting and accord that allege to why bodies fuck with ICP so much. Granted I don’t accept that the accumulation created this adventure alone to achieve with a pep allocution on adherence and award God (although this actually follows in band with ICP’s comically crass aesthetic), but this is the best absolute ICP has been with its fan base, emphasizing the accent of association support.

HOLY SHIT DID ICP CREATE THE MIGOS FLOW BEFORE MIGOS CREATED THE MIGOS FLOW? I say this because “Freak Creepy Show,” a clue from ICP’s 11th anthology Bang! Pow! Boom!, absolutely uses the now-everywhere leash breeze for its hook. Granted, this is the alone time in the anthology the breeze is used, but I wasn’t assured to apprehend it at all. Maybe ICP deserves added acclaim than hip-hop admirers accord them.

I accept no comments on The Tempest, ICP’s 10th album. It’s bad, and didn’t beforehand the band’s account either lyrically or sonically.
1:30pm
I don’t apperceive if it’s because they brought aback the Dark Carnival belief for Bang! Pow! Boom! (that’s right, the adventure has returned, this time about absorption on a ample access that clears angry souls from the carnival) but this anthology is a auspicious acknowledgment to anatomy for ICP. The assembly is all-embracing and strong, and J and Dope are accouterment some of the best and memorable chants and hooks I’ve heard from them.
1:35pm
“MIRACLES” IS INCREDIBLE ON SOME LIL B BASEDGOD SHIT. SURE, THE VIDEO WAS MEMED (Saturday Night Live parodied the video) BUT THE SENTIMENT OF APPRECIATING LIFE AND ALL OF ITS WONDERS IS SO DOPE. ALSO CHECK OUT THESE FIRE BARS:
Fucking rainbows, afterwards it rainsThere’s abundant miracles actuality to draft your brains
Or…
Water, fire, air, and dirtFucking magnets, how do they work?And I don’t wanna allocution to a scientistY’all motherfuckers lying, and accepting me pissed
WOW. AND THE AD-LIBS? HEARING J SAY “MAGIC EVERYWHERE IN THIS BITCH” ON THE SONG’S HOOK BROUGHT ME JOY IN A WAY I NEVER THOUGHT I’D GET FROM AN ICP SONG. WOW. LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL. I LOVE LIFE.
7:00pm
I can’t go any added afore acknowledging ICP’s abstruse weapon, Mike. E. Clark. The ambassador has been with ICP for best of the releases (except for both The Wraith albums) and has acid in on its complete with anniversary album. He brings the carnivalesque artful in ICP to life, with sounds and samples attenuated calm in a way that’s camp but digestible, and I’d like to anticipate that has pushed ICP to be better.
The Mighty Death Pop!, ICP’s 12th album, is the best attainable that the accumulation has released. “Skreem!” is a absolute ICP song in that the assembly is abundant and the drive builds with anniversary verse. (Tech N9ne you didn’t accept to bake the Dark Carnival bottomward with those accelerated rhymes, my guy.) I acknowledge the accumulation demography Chris Brown to assignment on “Shooting Stars.” Jeckel Brothers is still the arch so far, but I’d additionally acclaim Death Pop! To anyone that would potentially appetite to accept to ICP.

I adulation aback ICP writes songs about abhorrence for the Confederate flag. Case in point “Confederate Flag” from The Marvelous Missing Link: Lost, which appearance the afterward hook: “I say fuck your insubordinate flag.” Like, the way J yells this makes me feel invincible, as if I chugged two liters of Faygo and am now abduction anniversary and every Confederate banderole in sight. It’s an anthem.
8:15pm
I HAD TO RUN “CONFEDERATE FLAG” BACK BECAUSE OF THIS VERSE:
It’s Juggalos all over the South, that don’t beachcomber itProud of area they’re from but that flag, they abhorrence itCause they accept it’s a attribute of slaveryOne banderole reps us all, it agency bravery
PREACH. INSANE. CLOWN. POSSE.
9:45pm
Having accomplished alert to the aftermost ICP album, The Marvelous Missing Link: Found, I can now say I accept a newfound acknowledgment for the group.
