These Hatchet Heralds seem to have no rhyme or reason as to when they drop, but that’s OK!  It just keeps us all on our toes!

We just had a new one drop today, and it’s jam-packed with info surrounding the ongoings at the Hatchet!  This one covers:

• Gathering Location update
• Juggalo Weekend
• Detroit Events this weekend (Rude Boy’s benefit, Riddlebox show)
• Recap of last month’s news
• Brand new Blahzay Roze interview

Give it a read yourself below!

From HatchetHerald.com:

Direct from Mr. X… It’s the Hatchet Herald

Just to kick things off…..

We have just hired 3 new super ninjas who are working around the clock to lock in a WEST COAST location for the Gathering of the Juggalos 2017. Due to the F.B.I.’s GANG CLASSIFACATION of Juggalos it has become EXTREMELY hard to find a location for the Gathering. But we assure you… We have found 3 of the best men for the job and they are literally working 24 hours a day and nothing will stop them until The Gathering has found its new home. It will most likely not be in Colorado, but weare seriously looking into spots in California, Nevada, Arizona, and New Mexico. Nothing will ever stop The Gathering!

This fucking weekend mother fuckers….

If the official Juggalo weekend 2017 wasn’t enough? We’ve got a whole other weekend of nonstop mind blowing greatness at the back in Detroit the following weekend. That’s Friday the 24th and Saturday the 25th. Fucking Fresh!

The first of which is The Rude Boy Benefit show at the Majestic Theatre on the 24th. The Rude Boy, Day Fucking 1 Member of the Inner City Posse, the man who introduced Violent J and Shaggy to South West Detroit, has fallen on some hard times due to serious health issues. As I talked about in the last issue Rude Boy recently had not 1, but 2 major heart surgeries. And the Medical bills are stacking every day. So ICP and Psychopathic Records stepped in and announced that The Rude Boy Benefit Show would be their 2nd Deed of Love.

For this very special show, for the first time ever under the same roof on the very same night. Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope will each be preforming solo sets. So if you’ve never seen a Shaggy or J solo show? Here’s your chance to see both of them at one show.  Also on this very special show we have MBK (MY BROTHERS KEEPER), Detroit’s own MOTOWN RAGE, the very controversial SPANISH SIDE and Psychopathic allstar LYTE! Tickets are still on sale and all proceeds go right to the Rude Boy to help with his medical bills.

And if that’s not enough…… Everyone that comes to The Rude Boy Benefit Show will receive an EXTREMELY LIMITED, VERY FRESH, BRAND NEW CD. What’s on this cd you might ask? Well I guess I can tell you… Every person that comes to Rude Boy’s Benefit will receive a brand new track from Violent J and The Rude Boy titled “No Drama” (aka The Kids Song). We’ve all heard their “Mom Song”, well here’s the brand new exclusive follow up track we’ve all been waiting for. So make sure you come out Juggalos. Bring some friends, bring their friends, bring your friend’s friend’s friends. This event is one that’s very close to our hearts and there’s no doubt this will relieve a lot of stress of this amazing man’s shoulders. We’ll see you there.

Then Saturday the 25th, also at the Majestic. For the very very very very last time ever in the United States……. ICP will perform the mighty Riddle Box Show. This is it folks. This is you’re very last fucking chance to see ICP perform the mighty 3rd Jokers Card on American soil. And to keep true to the old school vibe of the evening they’re bringing in some classic Juggalo favorites. I’m talking about PROJECT BORN, and MYZERY will be in the house to kick off the show. There are VERY FEW tickets left. Don’t sleep on this. Chances are it’ll probably be sold out by the time you’re reading this stupid new letter.

One last thing mother fuckers…..

I recently had a chance to sit down with the very lovely, very talented, very beautiful, but very dangerous Miss Blahzay Roze for a quick and personal interview where we talked about her EXTREMELY controversial music video “White Lights”. FUCK all the rumors and controversy, Blahzay Roze has grown into a powerhouse here at Psychopathic Records while her debut album “Broken” is flying off shelves. Being the first female artist on the label, she’s really set the bar high if ever another girl comes along.

Mr. X: You just had a new music video drop this past January for your song “White Lights”. Many out there speculate on your personal struggle with domestic violence, could you share with us how much of the song is actually based off your real life experience?

B.Roze: Unfortunately, I grew up in a household plagued with domestic abuse. My mother started dating a man when I just was 8yrs old. He would get violently drunk and fight my mom. Make her hit us and stuff. When I got older I promised myself I would never be in that situation. In 2013, July 4th I was attacked by my boyfriend (Now Ex). It was terrifying. I could write a book about the experience. I’m so sorry to any woman who’s going through something like that.　

Mr. X: During the shooting of your music video “White Lights” were there any parts particularly hard to get through? Did the memories of abuse linger? 

B.Roze: Though the entire song is very emotional for me. Mostly because I think about my mom and watching her get hit. The experience of filming this particular music video was almost uplifting in a way, strengthening. I worked with an amazing crew including the famous Ryan Archibald & Jumpsteady himself.

Mr. X: How were you able to grow up and overcome in an environment with such abuse happening on a daily basis?

B.Roze: Well, I’m not ok by any means. I suffer from extreme mental disabilities. In 2013, when my now ex-boyfriend got physical with me or should I say it like it should be said, no sugar coating, excuse me when my ex-boyfriend beat the living shit out of me, I had amazing friends and a haunting background to motivate me forward and away from that situation.

Mr. X: Just so people aren’t confused, what was your overall goal and message behind the making of “White Lights”?

B.Roze: I’m done with violence of this kind or any other, to go on seemingly unnoticed. Almost swept under the carpet like somebody’s cried wolf too many times. No, these human beings need help. Serious help. Not just the people getting out of a situation and becoming free but the mother fuckers who actually think it’s fucking ok to ever, ever, put your god damn filthy hands on another human in domestic abuse. I’m not staying quiet. I never will. I’m throwing it right in their fucking faces. Bam Bitches. Hungry?  Here’s a nice hot plate of fucking reality.

Mr. X: Any final thoughts or words of advice for people stuck in abusive relationships?

B.Roze: You can do it. I don’t know how many times your friends and family have told you that you can, maybe they never have but, I know one thing…. You fucking can. You can be independent, you can live life to its fullest without being held down (Physically) or back from experiencing the beauty of life.  I feel like a lot of people are not just trapped because of an abuser but because of a symptom of the abuse, anxiety. It manipulates you severely. Tell me, how many times have you said “I’m doing it I’m gonna leave him.”  & then the other part of your brain comes up with a reason not to, a fucking excuse. One after another until you’re stuck in a ruthless fuckin cycle you can’t get out of. Ask for help! Stop making excuses. If you’re afraid for your life get the fuck out of there. Go anywhere. Call any of the hotlines. There are people you don’t even fucking know waiting with open arms to just help you! & for everyone else. Take care of yourselves & each-other.

Well on that serious note, no jokes this week kids. Have a good morning, good evening, and good night.

Much Clown Love,

…Mr. X
