Juggalo Judgment

You should always exercise caution when you operate a motorized vehicle. I'm not sure how that fits into this description, but it's true. Anyways, Twiztid was supposed to go on tour in 2007 in support of their LP Independents Day, but for some reason that no one knows to this day, that tour had to be put on hold. In early 2008, they were able to tour the country far and wide, and they even brought a surprise in the form of a tour-exclusive EP.  We heard a little smidgen of it on the first Let 'Em Bleed, but here we get 7 tracks of demented goodness. Did Twiztid leave off some banger tracks from Independents Day? Are some of the alternate tracks better than what made the cut of that record? SHOULD THE ORIGINAL VERSION OF "FEEL ME" BEEN PUT ON A GREATEST HITS ALBUM THE LIKES OF WHICH NO ONE HAS EVER SEEN? These questions will be answered today as we head down to the nuclear plant and unleash some... Toxic Terror.

2008 would mark 16 years since ICP's Carnival Of Carnage, the de facto 1st release on Psychopathic Records, meaning The Hatchet would be turning 16. Remember your Sweet 16? Lots of kids had big parties, maybe they got a car or something. Well Psychopathic Records got a DJ! Shut up, I know DJ Clay has been around for a little bit before this, but let me have this for the joke, dammit. ANYWAYS, DJ Clay has already made his presence known on some other releases, but it's time to put himself on the map... with a mixtape primarily made of every other artist on Psychopathic. Does Clay nab some solid tracks that wouldn't make sense on other releases? Does he have solid flows of his own worthy of standing out? Does he do the best DJ Khaled impression this side of Detroit? Find out today as we cut 'em up and... Let 'Em Bleed... The Mixxtape, Vol. 1.

Today, June 26th, Mike turns 32. He could've been lazy and just said "fuck it, no new episode". But he didn't. He decided to grace you with his auditory presence. SO CHEER HIM. ACKNOWLEDGE HIM. Or just listen to this episode. That's cool. We got some info about this year's Gathering Of The Juggalos and Mike gets sappy at the end, so dive in! As a reminder, please go to the link below and purchase the new track by Jigglz (with assistance from Schmeev and Erik).

We've finally come to the conclusion of our "Shit We Missed". We laughed, we cried, Schmeev threatened to punch Mike in the skull repeatedly for forcing him to listen to these, but we made it. Today, we talk about a little-known album in Psychopathic's history. Prior to AMB's glorious win at GOTJ 2005 for an album contract, V Sinizter did it first. Unfortunately, due to a number of reasons, the album came and went with little fanfare. Mike was finally able to acquire a copy of this album, so it only made sense to try and find out just why Juggalos as a whole didn't gravitate towards it. Was V Sinizter still green as an artist? Did Psychopathic drop the ball in helping to nurture a fledgling album to be worth taking notice of? Did Mike see V Sinizter's set at Camp Xul and think he was cool as hell? The answers to these questions will be revealed here. Get your gear. It's... Hunting Season.

Mike was so damn excited about Camp Xul that there was no way he could wait to record the new Mike Check for it. So why wait? Mike grabbed his phone, and literally on the final night of the festivities, he got together with his Camp Crew of Robbie (TwiztidHistory/DoItForTheUnderground on IG), Blade, and Veronica to unpack everything from the weekend! This is a long episode, so buckle up! Apologies for the sound quality being on the low end; again, Mike just had his phone on him, so it pretty much sounds like an old JJ episode!   As mentioned at the beginning of this episode, please go to the link below and purchase the new track by Jigglz (with assistance from Schmeev and Erik).

We all remember the story of ICP's overnight success after the infamous "Disney Scandal". With a wave of Milenko's wand, the Wicked Clowns were in the public eye, underdogs of the world who had their hard work pulled out from under them. Island Records made the big save, and they were fully behind Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope. One such way of doing this was by buying out a dedicated timeslot on MTV to play whatever they wanted, which meant airing a documentary dedicated to ICP and the Juggalos. A video tape (and later on, DVD release) of this meant that new and old Juggalos could experience this whenever they wanted, and so we're doing that here! Yes, the JJ Boiz are here with another commentary track, so bust out the VHS player and have us on in the background. Did Island make the right choice in broadcasting this to the world? Were you one of the special Juggalos who watched this right when it aired? Is Legz Diamond the most charismatic ninja that world has ever known? We find out today as we sit and watch..

Mike got some new music he wanted to chat about, and mentions some stuff coming up in the next few months to pay attention to!   Hit us up on our socials here: https://linktr.ee/JuggaloJudgment, or get at one of us directly on Twitter @MikeSpohnTheSEJ and @Schmeev, OR hit up Mike on Instagram @StraightEdgeJuggalo.

You may remember that Mike wasn't the biggest fan of Myzery in the past. From his contributions to Psychopathic Rydas, his guest verse on "Meatcleaver", and the one track of his we heard on Forgotten Freshness, Vol. 1 (plus Mike's prior experience with the album in particular), he was ready to just shut the door on Les Myz until 2017 or whatever. But the season of "Shit We Missed" just left a nagging feeling for Mike, and ultimately decided that we should give him a shot. So we did! Does Myzery stand on his own with minimal involvement by Psychopathic? Is this a more solid hip-hop record than we were expecting? Does Mike ever say the album title correctly?

Way back in 1977 Elvis Costello released his debut album. 13 years later, I was born. 20-something years later I was introduced to said album and determined it was one of the greatest things I'd ever heard, from a songwriting, compositional, really every standpoint. Does Mike have an appreciation for this kind of old-fashioned rock and roll? Does it baffle him as a temporal anomaly, existing across many generations of genres while sounding clean as heck? Will he be able to analyze at least one song that is plainly just about bangin'?

Because Schmeev jumped the gun and didn't ask Mike if a Mike Check was coming out today due to Mike's hesitance at releasing what he initially recorded, you got that dumpster fire earlier today. But never fear, Mike is here. Well... maybe you should fear anyways. REGARDLESS, Mike's got some info on some new releases dropping that he's aware of and the possibility of some festival happening that he might attend.

He is up there. He is up there indeed. It's a special April 17th Mike Check, because Mike didn't wanna release the Mike Check he recorded, so we now have some Juggalo Judgment lost media out there, isn't that exciting? Well Schmeev decided to take over like he does, and give you some actual updates on juggalo news...after talking about some other stuff first. So settle in, and enjoy a nice peaceful ASMR Mike Check. Sorta. I just didn't wanna talk loud today.   Hit us up on our socials here: https://linktr.ee/JuggaloJudgment, or get at one of us directly on Twitter @MikeSpohnTheSEJ and @Schmeev, OR hit up Mike on Instagram @StraightEdgeJuggalo.

On Halloween in the year of our Lord 2000, an artist named Poe released a sort of companion piece to a novel released in March of the same year. At the same time, it was a tribute to her father who had recently passed, and a way to explore the grieving process of a complicated relationship. In that spirit, we also discuss the complicated relationship between listeners and artists, artists and labels, there's a lot to cover here. Was Poe ahead of her time? Does her eccentric taste make for a unique sound still not heard today? Is this 18 track album a form of retribution for the other 11 months of the year? Find out as we dive into Poe's sophomore album Haunted.   Hit us up on our socials here: https://linktr.ee/JuggaloJudgment, or get at one of us directly on Twitter @MikeSpohnTheSEJ and @Schmeev, OR hit up Mike on Instagram @StraightEdgeJuggalo.

You like the Psychopathic Rydas? No? Well, neither does Schmeev. You like gold? Well, neither does Mike. We're 0-for-2 right now... How about we combine the 2 and hope for the best? Around the Riddle Box era, ICP and a bunch of friends and Psychopathic Records employees did a gimmick supergroup that was basically Rydas before Rydas, but everyone had a gold name and had an incredibly limited time frame to write their lyrics and only 1 take to lay those vocals down. Is this album a fun novelty? Is it easy to tell who's a rapper and who should never enter a vocal booth ever again? Is Legz Diamond a goddamn treasure on this Earth and should be on every project ever? Find out the answers to these and more today, but before you do that, make sure you...

In the early days of Psychopathic, ICP were slowly but surely making names for themselves. The Detroit area would know of the 2 white guys painting themselves up as clowns rapping about murder and carnivals. But Violent J wanted more for the label. He wanted to show that Psychopathic wasn't just ICP. Enter Project Born, Psychopathic's attempt to expand past what ICP was doing at the time. Would Juggalos accept the group? Were guest features from ICP and Esham The Unholy enough to satisfy their desire for horrorcore? Were some of the songs just too goddamn long to keep the attention of the Juggalos in the early 90's? Find out today as we venture into the graveyard and find those who were... Born Dead.   Hit us up on our socials here: https://linktr.ee/JuggaloJudgment, or get at one of us directly on Twitter @MikeSpohnTheSEJ and @Schmeev, OR hit up Mike on Instagram @StraightEdgeJuggalo.
