Insane Clown Posse on Why They Painted Their Faces (Part 2)

[@BadBob18]

I love how they interrupt each other like siblings, finish each other’s sentences, but never get mad at each other. They are unique. It’s like neither of them have an ego about their success.

[@jamesblake5176]

talking about 40+ years of friendship. these dudes are more brothers than most blood relatives.

[@MensaCramps]

Something that I noticed is that when Shaggy speaks up when J is talking, it's never really to interrupt but always to add to the story. It's as though the two of them are of one mind.

I think it's dope to see Shaggy so happy in these interviews that have been coming out recently. Very talkative. They're finally getting they're industry recognition and respect they've always deserved. Yall ain't gotta bump it, but y'all gotta respect it. I'm Happy for both em. I come from shit. I got into ICP at 11, I'm 34 now. The clown's made my childhood so much better and gave me an escape from an otherwise terrible life. I'm sure all Juggalos can relate. Fort Worth, TX Juggalo.

Out of the Joker Cards I liked "the Great Milenko" the best, but "Riddle Box" wasn't bad either. They also have a catalog of albums which feature top artists like Ice Cube. Violent J should let Shaggy 2 Dope talk more without blowing off what he is saying. They found a lane and were white guys who loved Hip Hop, the true culture and fought against racism heavily. The Lil Pumps and Lil Purps and every other white rapper out there can learn so much from these guys about the respect of culture. Research why they at one point hated Kid Rock and Eminem.

Not just known in Michigan....they were known in the mid 90s in indiana too.

Around Great Milnko years more people were showing up. The last show I seen of theirs had Twiztid, ICP, and I THINK Esham came out before anyone and only did like 2 or 3 songs, then twiztid, them ICP and then the band Slayer played.

What he meant was they took it as a business as opposed to a talent or hobby. They were rap entrepreneurs Like master P pressing their own CDs selling out the trunk (rap route) where as people like Eminem was very lyrical and went to freestyle contests to get signed by a major (hip hop route). Being able to freestyle on the spot got a lot of rappers record deals in the 90s that’s how people like Mase and DMX were discovered.
