D/FW Juggalos featured in German “Trends + Fun” Magazine!

A few months ago, a German magazine called Trends+Fun reached out to us because they planned on writing an article about fashion in different subcultures.  They saw the work of one of Faygoluvers’ Dallas, TX based photographers: Jet Yonkin and asked permission to use some of his photographs in the magazine.

Fast forward a few months, and the July 2016 issue of the magazine is out, and the article is featured in it!  The section about Juggalos is just a page, and you can see that below:

Can’t read the article?  No problem!  We’ve got a decent translation for you too (courtesy of Jet Yonkin and Nemo).  Here’s a good attempt at an English translation:

The Juggalos: Where Everyone Can Play

Clown make-up and “whoop whoop” greetings. This is the world of the most hated subculture in the USA. The Juggalos emerged from the fan scene of the Insane Clown Posse, a horrorcore rap duo that rap about horror or gore themes. It’s been called a melting pot for “white trash” in the United States and even if they are on the FBI’s “Gang” list, the Juggalos and their female counterparts, Juggalettes, are in agreement: they’ll condemn anyone because of their appearance and those who have been in an American High School know that.

No matter what type of religion, origin, skin color or lifestyle, whoever wants in their Family can also join – the only admission requirement: You have no objections, from time to time, taking a shower with the official Juggalo favorite soda “Faygo,”.  “The Gathering of the Juggalos,” for example, is a festival where the Juggalos celebrate with concerts, wrestling, and a whole lot of other amusements.

You can check out the entire edition of this magazine digitally here: http://www.trends-fun.de/tuf/

The article featuring Juggalos and Juggalettes begins on Page 13 which shows a large picture of Die Antwoord.  Much props to Trends+Fun for the article, and congrats to Jet Yonkin for having his work published!
