Juggalo Judgment

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...Star Wars happened. That's a cool movie series. You know what else is a cool movie series? Jurassic Park. And the Marvel movies are cool. And Harry Potter. And Lord of The Rings. And Die Hard. Man, there's so many other cool movies. Then there's Big Money Hustlas. It's certainly a movie. Guys, we said months and months ago that we would sit down and do a commentary/riff style thing to this brilliant piece of cinema, and it's finally here. Now, we do have a normal intro type thing like a normal episode, but once the film starts (we'll let you know so you can get ready), there's no audio except for our dialogue, so you can pop in your own legally-owned copy of BMH and hear us talk over it. So don't complain if there's some sections of silence. It's because reasons. That said, we hope you enjoy this. Please let us know if you want more stuff like this in the future and we might be able to make it happen. Hit us up at JuggaloJudgment@gmail.com, @JuggaloJudgment on Twit

We've hit a dry patch regarding the clowns everyone. We've touched on a LOT of Twiztid recently and some Blaze, with a smattering of ICP featured there and in Dark Lotus, but now we return to the originators of the Dark Carnival! This episode, we go to some new-ish forgotten-ish stuff. Tracks that were never meant to see the light of day, songs from other artists fortunate enough to have ICP grace their records with their presence, audio journeys from projects yet to come from Psychopathic Records, and a skit of a wrestler high off his fucking ass. It can only mean one thing. This... is Forgotten Freshness, Vol. 3.

It's time to take a look into the crypt and look at our dead homie... oh wait, wrong crypt... LET'S CHECK OUT THIS COLLECTION! This week we take some time to discuss another collection of freshness that's been forgotten by everyone. Yup, even Twiztid, and they MADE the stuff. Crazy, right? Anyways, we have another romp between the aisles of HOK and recent-ish Twiztid songs, not-so-silently wishing we had an album with a theme to it. Regardless, sit down, grab your Faygo, and listen to us rant about Cryptic Collection, Vol. 2.

From the cradle to the grave... and then not in the grave anymore, Blaze Ya Dead Homie is a G, a thug, a gangsta, all that and then some. We return to Blaze on his own telling you in 15 songs how much he likes doing hood rat things. Has Blaze improved since his debut LP after being sidetracked with Dark Lotus? Is ABK's presence one of the best things about this album? Is the N-word thrown around here an uncomfortable amount of times? The answers to these questions will be brought to light today, because when Blaze dies, we have... 1 Less G N Da Hood Hit us up at JuggaloJudgment@gmail.com, @JuggaloJudgment on Twitter/Instagram, Juggalo Judgment on Facebook, or get at one of us directly on Twitter @MikeSpohnTheSEJ and @Schmeev.

After much anticipation, months and months... and months of waiting... the horrorcore-iest of scary music has finally been unleashed in the form of Psychopathic Records' premier super group... wait, Rydas came out first? Oh... well... THE GROUP EVERYONE ACTUALLY WAITED FOR, DARK LOTUS! Does Violent J take control of this entire project? Do Twiztid stand out from what Schmeev felt was the lackluster Freek Show? Do 3 different producers hurt this project as a whole? Does Marz show promise as the next big thing from The Hatchet? Find out all this and more as we delve into... Tales From The Lotus Pod.

As the title says, this is the part of Ep. 21 - Tales From The Lotus Pod that we cut out. As I said in the original episode and reiterated at the beginning of this one, we're covering the pretty heavy topic of school shootings. Please use your discretion in engaging with this, and make sure to take care of yourselves. Also, I would like to note that neither of us intended to go into this, my (Schmeev) own notes had literally a sentence to remind me to address it, and I figured that would be it. As such, we're speaking off the cuff, and if something comes out wrong I apologize. Let us know and we'll do what we can to correct it.

After a long and storied career spanning 2 entire albums, it's about time for a retrospective on Twiztid and the plethora of work they've put out with Psychopathic Records. Remember Mostasteless? I do. How about Freek Show? Well this was probably finished before that dropped. House of Krazees? I forgot them too! Anyway, join us for a walk down memory lane and think of all the good times we had with Twiztid's Cryptic Collection Vol. 1 Hit us up at JuggaloJudgment@gmail.com, @JuggaloJudgment on Twitter/Instagram, Juggalo Judgment on Facebook, or get at one of us directly on Twitter @MikeSpohnTheSEJ and @Schmeev.

We dumped out our sacks full of candy on the first Halloween of the new millennium and found not just 2 tasty nuggets from ICP, but the sophomore album from Twiztid as well! Do they prove how hard they are like jawbreakers? Do they have the smooth flows like caramel in a Milky Way? Are their beats as disappointing as a box of raisins? Should I stop trying to think of anymore really bad candy puns? You be the judge! But only of that last question, because this is OUR show, but it's Twiztid's...Freek Show.

In part... 2? Does this count as a part 2? Anyways, we get right to the 2nd half of the double release that ICP threw out of their studio on that fateful Halloween of 2000. Is this album just as "Bizzar" as its silly counterpart? Does it seem just as supposedly phoned in? Does Violent J sink to the lowest levels possible to achieve total fame and stardom? I mean, possibly, but who are we to judge? Oh wait, that's our schtick. Welp, let's get on to it! Here's the link for that site I mentioned in the episode.

We've made it to a very interesting time in ICP history. The clowns are in a contract, they want out, but they're still two albums from retirement with Island Records. That's where these next albums come in. We have two episodes in a row of ICP's attempt to both satisfy their contractual obligations and also shove success in Sharon Osbourne's smug fucking face. Will the wicked clowns escape the Island? Can they shatter the expectations of an obnoxious music manager? Did they actually phone in some of their best work?

It's time for us to dive into the first solo outing of one of the most contentious Psychopathic Records artists (this is Schmeev writing this I don't really know but I DO know a thing or two about the problems he had getting on the label so he's contentious). That's right, it's Blaze Ya Dead Homie, Twiztid's good friend and almost third member if not for J (per interview claims). How does he stack up to the rest of the roster? How does he fare without other verses to compare to? Does he have any actual cred? Some of these questions will be answered!

This week your judgy boyz pick up some stray radio signals from the far reaches of *checks notes* Detroit, Michigan. Do these strange beings from another world come in peace? Are they here to stay? Could they have left some of these signals in the past or perhaps not have broadcast them at all? Find out as we dive headfirst into Psychopathics From Outer Space!

After a short hiatus (whoops whoops) we are BACK to talk about a group that showed up out of nowhere on a brand new label, Psychopathic Rydas. Do these completely anonymous no-names have the skills? Do they have the beats? Do they have even a shred of credibility regarding their own lyrics?

Pretty self-explanatory.

This album just turned 20 and in its honor (completely by accident) we're gonna have a listen and see just what it is that merits this album being Mike's (and many others) favorite ICP outing. What guests did the wicked clowns manage to snag for this album? Were they worth it? Was it a bad idea doing this album hot off the heels of Mostasteless?

This week the judges finish off the second half of this ICP compilation. Is this half fresher than the first? Does Schmeev get mad? Is the Hokus Pokus remix better than the original (NO)?

Today we're just gonna give a quick overview of Twiztid, then spend the rest of the time going way off track on the music industry as a whole because Twiztid and their experiences sort of encompass a lot of pressing issues that have been around for quite some time.

Mike here to give a quick bit of info of something super cool happening on 4/20! No, we ain't lighting one up, but feel free to, if you so desire. Basically I'm getting my Twiztid 10K Mystery Box tomorrow (if USPS doesn't screw up), and Schmeev suggested I unbox it for you guys! If so, it'll be live on those social media sites, so follow us on our social medias IMMEDIATELY! JuggaloJudgment on Twitter and Instagram, Juggalo Judgment on Facebook!

On this (late) episode, the judges are gonna look at some of what was left on the cutting room floor, or given away at shows, or released on some solo record that everyone probably missed!
