For me it was 98-99 a friend of mine brought over this record which had a Blue Cover (album cover) on it. So he brings it up to my house and we put it in my stereo. “If your nuts hang and you bang with a gang then tell me are you down with the clown” you can imagine the look on my face when I heard that. The fuck my homie got me listenining to? Listening to this record and the look of confusion as to what I was hearing had me interested. Wasn't till Graveyard or I Didn't Mean To Kill 'Em came on that my interest was fully peeked. I knew I was introduced to something extraordinary that day. The memories.

MTV ironically. They had a story on them when The Great Milenko got pulled, and they had a picture and they’re names and I was like dude, I gotta check this out. Everyone else in the room thought the shit looked retarded, and it’s funny cause shit is still the same way today. I was meant to be over there buying weed when that update came on, what are the chances? I never bought weed from that dude and sure as fuck never eatch MTV, even way back then. It’s been all love since then, I was hooked after the first few songs, the suicide hotline skit on Milenko was unlike anything on any other record that I had ever heard. After that, got the whole back catalogue and the rest is history. I couldn’t find Beverly Killz 50187 or Terror Wheel for about a year around my way but got everything eventually. Only juggalo in Attleboro, Massachusetts and proud of it.

long story.. i 1st heard/seen icp when they came out rappin the entrance music of the oddities back at summerslam of 98.. i was impressed but really didnt pay much attention to the song.. then some time next year (99) my bro came home from a friends to bring me there & show me AJB.. that day i was also introduced into command & conquer & gta 2.. i remember hearing i want my shit & the shaggy show but im sure i heard a few others as well… then yeah i soon met up with this kid back in 5th grade & we eventually became best friends.. he liked icp as well so we just got more & more into it.. so yeah i guess it was the AJB & their imagery/mysteriousness back then that helped me get into them/psy.. yeah those were the good ol days.. i remember watchin BMH & beyond the freekshow for the 1st time with him on vhs.. damn i wish i never pawned those haha

Same here but it was “The Box” for me. Actually I heard twiztid before icp. The “we don't die” video. Something just clicked in me right away. Prolly cuz I grew up reading goosebumps and stephen king, plus watching tales from the crypt all the time. The horror imagery and the fucking ouija board! Then at the end you find out they were burying themselves. Fucking classic man.
It's weird I measure the periods in my life based off what I was listening to at the time….
There's a gateway in our minds
That leads somewhere out there, far beyond this plane

My first encounter was very deliberate. In the summer of 2010, I'd found myself watching some ICP videos online and reading about them on Wikipedia. I'd had Juggalo friends for years, but even after learning what I could about ICP, I just still didn't get what there was to like about them. So one day I said ok…I'm gonna get an album and listen to it, and figure out why in the world people find this entertaining. I downloaded Riddlebox and listened to it twice. It was completely not what I was expecting, and I enjoyed it WAY more than I'd expected. So I said ok…I'll listen to one more album, and then I'll know if this is something I'll actually be into, or if Riddlebox was just an anomaly. Well the next one I listened to was The Great Milenko and it was OVA! I had to listen to everything ICP did! It really was this immediate feeling like “Man, I've been a Juggalo this whole time! I just didn't know what to call it!” No looking back after that. So I've only been down for about 2 1/2 years, but I'm here now, and that's what matters! :-)

96, i believe… i had heard a few cuts before, but what got us all into it was my sister started picking up the back catalog. soon we noticed we never really listened to anything else anymore.
most of the crew got our first show in on the house of horrors tour in early 98. that was what really tipped the scales, seeing them live. twiztid, then myzery, then icp. twiztid was so new that we barely knew anything at all about them. seems odd now, twiztid playing before myzery.
awfully paranoid, arent you?

Kinda a 2 parter. I got into ICP with Riddle Box in ’96 and then Milenko and then on. But Psychopathic the label I didn’t care about until Twiztid came along. They killed it as soon as they came on the scene and made the label legit while ICP were still in their prime. The late 90’s was the dopest time. Everything those four were putting out was killing and they were inseparable. Saw them on the House of Horrors tour with Twiztid still in hoods lol. I racked up my parents phone bill always calling the hotlines because they were so funny. J would always be giving funny ass updates from the road and Madrox would come on with his multiple personalities. Miss those days.

97 i really loved the “halls of illusions” video on the box and started with milenko, then picked up riddlebox, then in 98 ff1&2 came out with the shockumentary(which i previously viewed on mtv) and i was sold. picked up the back catalog in reverse ringmaster then coc and the ep's as i found them. and finally ajb was released on may 25th 99 and i was at the instore that day in stlouis. good times. oh plus ff introduced me to twiztid and myzery and i had there og shit too. mostasteless the reissue was released a month after ajb. a lotta good fucking music between 97 and 99.

i got into ICP in late 1999, friend had an Amazing Jeckel Bros CD. he played me “i stab people” and it was different from anything ive heard before. and in the 90s angry music was big for the youth. not like 2days music where people wanna be cool and play fruity techno. this was when korn and bizkit and slipknot were breakin big. ICP fit perfect. and being from So Cal, KMKs “High Society” was huge out here, ICP was on it and it made me wanna get more ICP.
Twiztid had “we dont die” on The Box music channel, and ICPs “Tilt A Whirl”. i taped the videos when they played cuz internet wasnt really crackin back then. Bizzar Bizzar had links to fan pages and i read all the history and got the knowledge. i picked up the albums that Halloween when they were released. then i started collecting anything in stores. next was “beverly kills” and “mostasteless” from the wherehouse.
The essentials for any psychopathic lover are, ICP “Great Milenko”, Twiztids “Freek Show” and Dark Lotus “Tales from the lotus pod” (marz version)

everyone likes to act like they were down in 94-97 but the truth is, you had to be local and see them in shows. A lot of kids had “Milenko” cuz of the controversy and then jumped onto other mainstream music. “The date show” song was a big cult hit with kids in the 90s.
Amazing Jeckel Bros brought ICP to the mainstream, but 1999 was the big breakout year for psychopathic. “Lets go all the way”, “Tilt A Whirl” and twiztids “we dont die” were on TV and the fanbase expanded and then the internet took off. the rest is history.

MTV was where everyone got their music from, thats where i got to see some KMK, they used to play shit like slipknot, powerman 5000, bizkit and korn. it was a different time in music. alot of anger out there. twiztid and ICp were on music video channels so we all got to be familiar with their look and the music.
