Juggalo Judgment

The Pendulum series had a cool concept. New issue every month, new CD single included. 12 new tracks of goodness. Except it wouldn't really be the case over time. Some tracks would be eventually recycled from over exclusives, but hey, it was a cool idea nonetheless. We go over every track on the complete album, minus the ones that have already shown up on other episodes, and we even check out the rare tracks from issue #7 that didn't get put on the national release for obvious reasons. Does this album have any semblance of a concept? Fuck no. But it's dope in its own way. Strap in and check out... The Pendulum.

Mike here, and me, I like comics. Spider-Man is fucking awesome (Spider-Verse is a go-to for me), and the Power Rangers comics from Boom Studios are dope. You should check those out. While you're heading to your local comic store, you can also see if you can find the subject of this week's episode. We talk about ICP's nationwide foray into the realm of comics. We go over pretty much the whole story of the graphic novel and point out so many goddamn inconsistencies, it makes you wonder if the word "editor" was a title that had a job attached to it. No music with this ep, that's part 2. For now, swing left, swing right, this is... The Pendulum.

"Chaos theory" is what Ian Malcolm talked about in Jurassic Park. Stuff like the Butterfly Effect. 1 random act can cause an infinite number of side effects. Do you go right or left? Do you play the lottery this week? Do you slap a hobo when you normally wouldn't? Don't do that. That's mean. What does all this have to do with this episode? Honestly, not much, if anything. This episode of Juggalo Judgment, we steadily jump at the debut EP of Slightly Less Violent J, better known as Jumpsteady, the older brother of some clown. Does Mr. Bruce have the same skills his more insane younger sibling possesses? Is his time spent in the military a topic of his music? Does this contain one of if not THE best posse cuts to ever come out of Psychopathic Records to this day? You'll get these answers and then some when we listen to... The Chaos Theory.

Mirror mirror on the wall. Who's the most Twiztid serial killing-ist Juggalos of them all? No... no, it's not Blaze. Why would you even guess that? I LITERALLY said the name! Anyways, this episode, we take a good hard look in the mirror as Twiztid give us their first EP, but let's be real: this totally isn't an EP. This album's too fucking long to be an EP, based on normal standards. Here, we listen to the musical direction that Twiztid shifts into, one that truly becomes a baseline for their future records moreso that Freek Show did. We talk about WHO this album is really garnered to as opposed to a typical ICP. Also, we call attention to a not-so-nice line that has us stumped trying to find more info. So sit back, grab a Faygo, wallow in sadness because the world just doesn't understand, and check out our episode on Mirror Mirror.

You thought they were done? You thought that the Psychopathic Rydas were a flash in the pan? You HOPED they were? WELL THEY AIN'T. Those lovable hoodlums are back (minus Double Pistols) and they're here to tell you about the multitude of things they love doing! Shooting? Check. Killing? Check. Driving black trucks? Check. Jacking beats? Check. Fucking bitches? Check. Contributing to society? FUCK THAT. RYDAS AIN'T ABOUT THAT SHIT. Did the Rydas improve since Dumpin'? Do they stand on their own without the help of Born At The Same Time Glocks? Do they rap about anything of substance, or at least comparative to actual gangster rap classics? These answers may or may not be answered on this episode of Juggalo Judgment where we discuss... Ryden Dirtay.

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.

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

As the title says, this is the part of Ep. 20 - 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.
