I'm curious to know when some of yall 1st discovered & started rollin with this shit
My 1st ICP encounter was the ''98 summerslam & i was pretty impressed yet didnt know who they were. Then in ''99 i was introduced to their music through the 5th jokers card & by 2000 me & my best friend considered ourselves juggalos.

I wanna say right off the rip that it makes NO DIFFERENCE how long someone has been down; a Juggalo is a Juggalo is a Juggalo. That being said, I VERY FIRST heard of ICP during a commercial for Jeckel Brothers. When I saw it, I felt something in me that said, "What if you looked that up right now? 'The Amazing Jeckel Brothers' by Insane Clown Posse? What could that possibly be? What the Hell does that mean?" After that I put it out of my mind and didn't think twice about it until some time later when a friend of mine had brought his Jeckel Brothers cd to school and played "Mad Professor" for me. It was the first ICP song I ever heard and it profoundly affected me. It's not even one of their deeper songs and has no mention of Juggalos or anything really that ICP is about, but it just clicked. Napster was a new phenomenon at the time so I frantically downloaded every ICP song I could come across. Of course this was in the days of 56k modem so it took like an hour per song, but it was worth it. The more songs I heard and the more research I did and the more I talked about it with my friends, a lot of things started making a lot of sense. That was 13 years ago and I still love the old shit as much as the first time I heard it, and still bump the new shit every time an album drops. SUPER fucking excited about Mighty Death Pop and I think having a new set of Joker's Cards is brilliant.
Now THAT being said, I really don't like when my fellow old school Juggalos (I consider old school to be anyone down during the first set. That is, anyone who was down before the release of The Wraith: Shangri-La) rag on the new Juggalos for being new. I WANT there to be tons of new Juggalos. I don't want Juggalo-ism to die off with my generation. The more new Juggalos the better. And it's always the old Juggalos complaining that "ICP has changed" or whatever. The new kids are just loving the shit as much as you used to. In 10 years this set will be done and the kids who have been down since Bang! Pow! Boom! will be the old-school Juggalos. I want this shit to outlive ICP and go on until the world explodes.

Since I'm a Metalhead at heart I discovered them through the Sharon fight in 99. And then my metal friends all left me haha.
Yeah I find it extremely annoying when Old school Fam talks so much shit about the new, because I'm always like Why the fuck are you chillin with little kids in the first place?

down since 96,the great milenko kidnapped me n hasnt released me.my thought on old vs new juggalos/i will never slam new era juggalos fam is fam.the only thing i would like to say is in the early days of icp n the juggalos,there wasnt a whole lot of stupid shit involving juggalos,it was more bout icps music,hvn fun,icp was really underground in the early years.the great milenko tour was one of the greatest things i hve ever seen in my life at that time.i remember 2001 gathering in toledo b4 the cave in rock deal and it was alittle differened than it is now.it seemed alittle more personal then.icp did ALOT of instores at least 3 times a year here in pittsburgh.old schoolers like myself has to remember,the world is a difffent place for the young kids now.i get a kick out of tellin juggalos,sum old icp stories from back n the day n they love to hear it unno?.i never preach to my younger fam,i like to tell m the music,treating other juggalos wit respect(if earned)and be urself and not sumthing u arent.i honestly feel there is a dark carnival spirit,n if u can feel that strong vibe within, that is wat is about for me.the term"juggalo"shouldnt(in my opinion)be an excuse or pass to act like a dick.but on the other hand thats wat makes juggalos so different and great,everyone just being themselves.like i said i didnt come on here to hate(never),just to say there is alittle diffence from yesteryear to now in the juggalo world.no matter the era we are all fam! mcl 2 scoops of whoop joe a.k.a. double jj luv ya fam

Jake The Just & Jack The Sinister. But the cd I first heard was Forgotten Freshness Vol. 1 & 2 during '98. The Jeckel Brothers cemented it for me. The new school is shit, the family chants get annoying & so do the Whoop Whoops. To the 14, 15 & 23 year olds doing gang related shit, cut it the fuck out and stay in school.

A mate in the USA for some reason showed me "Dead Pumpkins" from Hallowicked on an old school chat program called ICQ, lol memories....after that I was hooked :) went to a music import store in Sydney and got Milenko imported, they had a couple of shirts in the store but no albums..strange, I still have the glow in the dark shirt from back then :) My whole group of friends were metal heads and I use to be the laughing stock of the group for liking "Rap Shit", now they are all juggalos too lol Thanx for the props homie :) My next albums gonna be better ;)

Since 1998 when I saw them in the WWF and heard the oddities song. I never bothered even looking for their CD's because for some reason I thought they wouldnt be avaliable in the UK. Anyhoo, the following year I stumbled upon Jeckel Bros in HMV and was like "Mom I gotta buy this" and I did. And I was hooked.

around 95 or 96 is when i first heard icp, chicken huntin. then my lil sister got milenko, then we immediately went out and got the whole back catalog. my crew passed those tapes (remember casettes?) back and forth forever.
really though, we didnt realize just how juggalo we were until we all went to our first concert, house of horrors tour in 98. we met ninjas there who had been down since ringmaster, they were like, 'didnt we meet you guys in detroit a few years ago?' most of the crowd only knew milenko songs.
id never say that you have to go to a show to be down, but it was a quantum leap for us. ive never looked back. i cant say the same for all of my homies...
on a side note, the first icp that i personally owned was from the great white hype soundtrack. i got it because of chicken huntin (and bone, and wu), then it turns out to be the 'no blood' clean version. shouldve just gotten riddle box, but i didnt know better yet. i was a sucker for soundtracks and mixtapes.

My cousin went to school in Ohio and when they were doing the big US tour of handing out tapes/demos for Riddlebox he ended up getting two cassettes and giving me one. I was only 8 or 9, a few months later when it actually released, my same cousin bought me and himself a copy. He took me to a record store to wait for Milenko to come out at like 7 or 8 in the morning the day it released where we both got the Gold Hollywood copies because we were the only two people who knew what the album was. I miss those days.

It was around the time that Boondox was first signed to Psychopathic, I believe. Not to imply that Boondox made me a Juggalo (which he didn't), I just remember listening to Amazing Jeckel Brothers, then checking out all of ICP's other stuff, then checking out Psychopathic's site, and Boondox' site was new back then. (Not dissing Boondox, he was one of the first non-ICP artists on Psy that I liked, but I got into Psychopathic because of ICP.) I talk about how I got into ICP/Psychopathic a little bit here:
I was going to talk all about ICP, but I sort of trailed off into several other subjects altogether (cottage industries, individualism, etc.)
I encourage anyone that has a ICP story to post a video response talking about how they got into ICP.

I've been down since 89'..Yup before COC dropped at the tender age of one. That makes me cooler and edgier than all of you fakes... you just jumped on 15 years ago... Plus I own all their merch and cd's. Plus me and violent j are tight...He once drove by me in a golf cart at the gathering...Y'all fakes and flakes don't know nuttin' bout that
There's a gateway in our minds
That leads somewhere out there, far beyond this plane
