Happy 420 Wastelanders.
To celebrate this psuedo-holiday, sit back and roast a phat spliff of your favorite KB and listen to this mind blowing music video full of insight and spiritual insight from none other than the beloved Insane Clown Posse.

The ICP was put up there more to mock them than anything. The video is pretty laughable, it's hard to believe they have thousands of dedicated followers who take them seriously.

I can't see the video, as I am at work and youtube is blocked. So I can't address this video directly. I will, however, admit that they have a lot of ridiculous songs, and some even more ridiculous fans. But, on the flip side of that, there is also some positives about ICP. They have released 11 albums, 3 of which went Gold and 2 more that went Platinum. They have sold over 6.5 milliion records. That deserves a little respect right there. Some of their songs are ridiculous, but they are designed to be so. They are all about making fun of extremes. Some of their fans are ridiculous, but that is because they cater to the social outcasts of society. They make alot of people, who otherwise have little hope/love in their life(people that other people pick on, non-athletic, non-goodlooking, lonely, etc.), and give them a community to belong to. The juggalo message is, at it's core, all about acceptance, love and brotherhood. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion for sure. People seem to either LOVE ICP, or HATE them. Doesn't seem to be much middle ground. All I know is that they have some of the best beats in all of rap, and I have a fucking blast at every concert I attend. I once dumped an entire 2 liter of Faygo on this chick's titties in the middle of the mosh pit. That was a good memory. Are they the most talented band in the world? No. But then again, talent is subjective when it comes to music. Can they put on a hell of a show? Fuck yes. Does their music make me want to party? Hell ya. Is jumping up and down, smoking a J, and getting douched with Faygo entertaining? Definitely. You can ride the hater train all day and night. But ICP has accomplished ALOT, and done it all on their own, without selling out or comprimising their image/style/sound. They built their own record label, and have been dominating the underground scene for 20 years. They have one of the most loyal fanbases of any band you will ever see. |

Yeah, you should watch the video, it's fucking horrible. |
