Insane Clown Posse has made a career out of their ongoing Six Jokers Card Saga, a morality tale illustrating the perils of a sinful life. The capstone of this story was a set of the two albums, The Wraith: Shangri-La and The Wraith: Hell's Pit, each dealing with the benefits and pains of the afterlife. This two-CD-set features the talents of such underground musical powerhouses like the Filthee Immigrants, the Kottonmouth Kings, Martin Gross of the Howling Diablos, Wolf Pac, Mellow Man Ace, and DJ Clay. Songs have ... been remixed by artists and producers from Insane Clown Posse's label, Psychopathic Records, featurnig Monoxide of Twiztid, Fritz the Cat, Kuma, and the underground legend Mike E. Clark, who's skill has been featured on many ICP albums throughout their career. The Wraith: Remix Albums is a culmination to a storyline that has spanned over a decade - a decade displaying the creative force of the largest underground music sensation that ever was.

The Insane Clown Posse brought its special brand of pop music to Nation on Tuesday, a brand that has more to do with pop than music. For an hour, the Detroit combo -- Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope -- sprayed soda pop on the crowd in the half-filled concert hall while rapping macabre, violent rhymes over recorded beats. The only instruments onstage were high-powered squirt guns, so as to get the folks in the back wet with the soft drink, too. Two men in clown suits appeared onstage every minute or so with fresh cases of two-liter bottles of Faygo diet root beer, just to keep the duo armed.
Psychopathic Records and the Insane Clown Posse are proud to announce a Juggalo Championsh*t Wrestling national tour of 22 cities. The organization that brought you the outrageous DVDs, JCW Volumes 1-3, are set once again to shock and surprise the wrestling industry.

Dressed in evil clown makeup and celebrating the dark and ghoulish, ICP rose from underground sensations to become one of the most outrageous successes of the mid-'90s. When they were dropped from their record label under pressure from religious groups, ICP was picked up by Island, which released its fourth album, The Great Milenko, in 1997.
