Baron Samedi Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 I am worrying that i may be the only person who has heard of Insane Clown posse. surely there must be more people out there who like them?!?!?!. the first song of their's that i heard was 'Homies'. I downloaded it at school, during a computing lesson. then i got more songs of the net. My three favourites are: 'Homies', 'Crossing Thy Bridge' and 'Let a Killa'. Does anyone else here no of ICP!?!?! what are your favourite songs from them?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Vampire: Ed Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 They've been around for a while now. I don't follow their careers much, nor do I listen to their music. I mainly know of them because they actually were in the WWF/WWE, WCW, and currently, I believe, own their own little wrestling federation. They have actually wrestled, not to mention they still sung occasionally on the wrestling programs. Oh, and all you have to do is look around. I've seen a few people on OtakuBoards with Insane Clown Posse avatars, and/or banners. Arikel, now know as Heartless Me, I believe, is a fan of them. Perhaps, he will grace you with his presence.

Harry Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 I have heard them and they suck. Also a lot of their fan(juggalos) are annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomad Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 [FONT=arial][size=3][COLOR=darkblue]ICP, Blaze Ya Dead Homie, Anybody Killa, Twiztid, Dark Lotus, Psychopathic Rydas, whatever you hear on Psychopathic records, I know about and can tell you stuff. If you don't think I'ma ICP fan, take a look at my banner thread, I have a few banner featuring ICP, and a few featuring Twiztid. I've only been into ICP for about a year, when my friend at school introduced me to their music. Since then I've gotten Dog Beats, Carnival of Carange, F**k Off, Ringmaster, Riddlebox, Tunnel of Love, The Great Milenko (the first full CD I heard), Forgotten Freshness 1, 2 & 3, The Amazing Jeckle Brothers, Psychopathics From Outerspace, Bizarr - Bizzar and The Wraith - Shangrila. And those albums are just ICP cds. I've spent more time getting information on them than anything else in the past three/four years. ICP are the best. All of Psychopathic is the best. Forget Eminem, and everybody else around him (Dre, 50 cents, D12, etc). Psychopathic 4 Life. MCL -- Nomad EDIT: HARRY--""I have heard them and they suck. Also a lot of their fan(juggalos) are annoying."" What the..?! ICP have more fans than alot of other artists out there on mainstream. ICP are underground, they get no plugs from TV. They have only loyal followers, and people who can relate to them. Juggalos/lettes aren't just fans of ICP. Violent J has said that Juggalos doesn't mean you're a fan of them. Juggalos are described as scrubs, people who don't have it so good. People who don't do things as easily as others. As I've already mentioned, ICP is underground, and have more fans than mainstream artists do, such as Feminem, Backstreet, Spears, etc. And a true juggalo is one of the most loyal people you'll meet. Then there are cases of a Juggaho (or Juffalo). That is someone who pretends to be down with the clown, but really isn't.

wrist cutter Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 My friend is annoyed by the fact the majority of her friends are fans... so you're clearly not the only person who knows of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SadClown Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 I think they suck. What more can I say? I don't think bands who only do things for shock value have any sort of talent at all.

Queen Asuka Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 [color=hotpink][size=1]ICP is one of the most disgusting groups I've ever heard. I hate them with a passion. This guy got my sister into them and it pissed me off more than anything. They have the most vulgar and distateful lyrics and it seems that most of their fans are just a bunch of posers anyway. All the "Hot Topic goths" think it's COOL to be into ICP. *Rolls her eyes*[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerdsy Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 [COLOR=deeppink]Unfortunately, I have. My friend is obsessed with them, and sings their songs quite a bit. It unerves me to no end. To be honest, I think they're talentless hacks who can't sing. They were good wreslters, though. :)[/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, I haven't actually heard this band but I know a few people who like them, and based on the way they say about them I wouldn't like them. Why, one of the reasons is that whenever the people I know sing there songs it's always something like "**** you"* (oooh, so much lyrical depth).

And even though ICP say that, they have songs not about saying F**K you, they have songs about many different things. Like how people don't like them because they are 'To Scary' 'To spooky' 'Gang related' 'The anti-Christ'. If they listen to them they might be able to bring up that assumption. If you listen to every cd they have made from Basement Cuts up until The Wraith, then the evil clown type thing would be a strong feeling. But if you listen to the Wraith - Shangrila, then they tell you what they're about. Now on my closing comment, I could have been MUCH more hatefull in these comments, but I have respect enough for everyone on OB not to start flaming now. I don't go around to other people's thread and say, "ewww, that group sucks" or "they all suck, they make the most annoying music in the world." or "I don't like them because they look this or that way, or they sound this or that way." ---Whatever[/COLOR][/size][/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baron Samedi Posted July 22, 2003 Author Share Posted July 22, 2003 .......... This is getting scary. in case anyone thinks....well....i like their music (what i have heard) but you dont need to take it to heart. i like music of many sorts. i like rap, i like techno (yes i do), i like trance (yep), i like pop, rock, old songs, some classical. i like songs. the genre does not matter to me, just the song. some of eminem's songs i like. some i dont. same with everything. Songs, not genres matter. so if anyone has made an impression of me, just because i like ICP, then you are wrong. .... I like ICP. i dont take all their stuff to heart. you dont need to take songs seriously to enjoy them. music is to enjoy. so enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manic Webb Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 First of all, I don't want this turning into a flame war. If it does, I will turn this thread right around and close it. ICP is quite mainstream. Given, they're not multi-platinum selling artists, but that doesn't make them any less exposed. In most cases, when a band gets exposure on television and in radio, they're mainstream. ICP got a lot of airplay on MTV late at night, and on MTV2. They plugged their albums on pro wrestling shows so many times, it was ridiculous. ICP claims to be against mainstreaming, but they've done everything to expose themselves [i]except[/i] commercials. And let's face it, 1 out of every 10 mainstream artists actually advertise their albums on TV commercials. We've all heard of them. Obviously, they're not that underground, are they? I've heard some of their songs, and those songs were either self-involved or rebelling against something trivial like *ahem* mainstream music.
