Juggalo Judgment

In 2005, it was about time for Twiztid to release another album. So they released 2! Like, back-to-back. Who the hell does that? So after the massive success of The Green Book, and Monoxide taking some time to flex on his own, Twiztid reunite to flex together and apparently talk about conspiracy theories. Do Twiztid stand out when they get "woke"? Do they rap really really well, but don't really h...

It's been a wild year, no doubt. But hey, we made it through. Juggalo Judgment kept trucking along, and Mike Check has been filling in the gaps with current info and opinions in between! Today, Mike spreads some holiday cheer with more presents of info directly to you! Inside, we'll talk about the Freek Show lunch box bundle that everyone's gotten in, the October Patreon gift bags that everyone's...

The Joker Cards have come and gone. The saga of the Dark Carnival has ended and would never EVER been touched upon again. Insane Clown Posse have still been around, though. Between guest features and projects like Dark Lotus, Psychopathic was still having a fair share of clown sightings. But they wouldn't just be relegated to sitting back and living off the fruits of their labor. Inspiration would...

Come on, this title totally spoils just about everything in here! Mike talks about some new albums that made their way to his ears and goes over some news from Psychopathic and MNE, such as Yum Yum Bedlam, MNE's newest signee, and more!   Hit us up at JuggaloJudgment@gmail.com, @JuggaloJudgment on Twitter/Instagram, Juggalo Judgment on Facebook, or get at one of us directly on Twitter @MikeSpohnTh...

Esham surprised the both of us when we reviewed Repentance. It was a damn solid album when we didn't expect much from it, and it stands out as a pure rap album in Psychopathic's catalog that Juggalos can appreciate. Now we move onto his 2nd album of original material on Psychopathic, an album that Mike has gone on record absolutely despising for the better part of a decade. But hey, this show has...

Okay, so the title is mostly misleading; Mike got 11 CD's by The Jokerr and has listened to most of them, so he needs to express his new music man-crush and he has to do it now! But not only that, he talks about FINALLY receiving his Blaze Ya Dead Homie order, as well as give you some info on other new releases (including a group that ain't even Juggalo-related) and even mentions the ICP Patreon s...

We here at Juggalo Judgment have grown fond of ABK. From his guest spots on Blaze's first album to his 2 solo projects and everything in between, the dude is damn solid. So when we see that his next project is an EP, our eyebrows raised? Can Anybody Killa condense an amazing project into half the tracks? Is the tracklist itself wonky as fuck? Was that DVD that was included the greatest piece of ci...

Back for more with Episode 4! After ranting for 2 hours last ep, Mike needed to chill. He slacked on listening to stuff he said he would listen to, BUT he still checked out some pretty nifty stuff. This time, we hear about a few new projects that dropped, a troubling lack of some stuff that he hasn't received yet, and the Boondox Friday The 13th concert "experience". Just a warning: Mike was getti...

Slighty-Less-Violent J is kicking off 2005 with his 1st (and to date, only) LP. Now he gets to flex his lyrical wisdom the only way he knows how: by rapping about nerd stuff and situations he probably would never be in! Does Jumpsteady's lyrical delivery improve over his work on The Chaos Theory? Do the guest features outshine his work on the tracks they show up on? Most importantly, do we get as...

Mike is back again after a monumental October to talk about some CD's and a couple of the ICP Patreon streams, but most importantly give his thoughts on the Freek Show and Hallowicked streams from Halloween weekend! Get your snacks, kiddies. This is a long one.   Hit us up at JuggaloJudgment@gmail.com, @JuggaloJudgment on Twitter/Instagram, Juggalo Judgment on Facebook, or get at one of us directl...

Smoking, flexing, talking about how you fucked up while not really doing anything to make amends. Those are Monoxide's favorite pastimes. At least, that's what we get when he's separated from his partner in crime, Jamie Madrox. Yes, Monoxide decided that it was time to undertake a massive task, and that's a solo effort for the very first time. Does he rise to the challenge? Do the guest spots outs...

Did you miss Mike? It's okay, you don't have to answer that. OF COURSE YOU DID! This episode, less talk of CD's Mike got to listen to because he only had 1, but LOTS of chatter about new albums that are coming out and a recap of ICP's seminar from the Patreon streams. More and more to come in the next few weeks! Hit us up at JuggaloJudgment@gmail.com, @JuggaloJudgment on Twitter/Instagram, Juggalo...

The hood has been quiet for a while. At this point, the stories of a "dead gangster" have faded into rumors, and now people have all but forgotten the deadman with a shotgun. But of course it wouldn't stay that way. After a few stints in some side projects and a short retirement, Blaze Ya Dead Homie makes his return in a big way. With a new alias, the dead-but-not-dead gangster rapper flexes his s...

Mike has been getting restless in his apartment during quarantine. With the monotony of the passing weeks, he decided to do something about it. This is a new segment we're gonna do in the off-weeks, solo episodes with Mike to just rant about stuff he wants to talk about! Why? Nobody knows, but it gives you more stuff to listen to from us, so... you're welcome? No promises that this will be permane...

In November of 2002, ICP released the most important album of their career, the culmination of 6 Joker Cards. To some, this was everything they could want and more. To others, maybe it just wasn't wicked enough. But there's 2 sides to every coin. Not everything can be bright, shiny, and full of diamond rain. Sometimes, things are just plain bad, depressing, lacking any sort of positivity. ICP ulti...

To many, ICP is a parody on rap in general, but it shouldn't be overlooked that they ARE fans of the genre and have a great deal of respect for those that came before them. That respect turned into a friendship and business partnership with veteran MC Breed (or "Breed", for short). An album that was technically put out by a Psychopathic Records sub-label, there's probably some of you out there who...

It's about time we talked about everyone's favorite Native American rapper on Psychopathic Records again. Equal Opportunity Murderah is back with his 2nd album with The Hatchet, after what we considered a damn fine debut with Hatchet Warrior. Does EOM match the same intensity he gave us in 2003? Does this record have some really stand-out bass lines that we just had to mention? Does Violent J over...

The Rydas laid waste to the block, shooting everyone and everything in sight. Nothing was safe, nothing untouched. That is, except you. In the pandemonium, you somehow were spared. As you gathered yourself, you watched as their black truck pulled away, hearing them yell about getting something called "scrimps". You didn't care to find out what that was, so you started to make your way to safety. B...

2004 was a big year for the underground. With so many releases coming out from Psychopathic Records, one could totally overlook a release from similar label Joe & Joey Records, but the group won't let you. That's right! The Psychopathic Rydas have returned and they've bolstered their ranks with new members Sawed Off and Converse. Does the group seem more cohesive than in prior outings? Is ther...

Hey lovely listeners, we're back with a new episode. Zug Izland is back with their sophomore album and we're... "thrilled" to talk about it? Without the writing from Violent J, does Zug Izland hit a slam dunk out of the rink? Were the tracks we heard on PFOS2 the only ones worth hearing? Is this the most generic album Psychopathic has put out at this point? Find out these answers and more. Check t...

Twiztid really like collecting crypts, man. So much so that they have a 3rd collection they wanna show off! This is a weird one though, because these aren't exactly songs that didn't fit on any prior release, but mostly new stuff with some remixes thrown in for good measure. Do these new tracks get us excited for Twiztid's new releases? Do Mike and Schmeev agree on if any of the remixes are good?...

It's about that time for 6 people on Psychopathic Records to make an album together, SPECIFICALLY a Dark Lotus one. Hot off the heels of a brand new track on Psychopathics From Outer Space Part 2, ICP, Twiztid, Blaze, and ABK reunite from the first outing of everyone trying to sound like ICP and shift to a new direction of everyone trying to sound like Twiztid. Does this record sound more complete...

Another transmission from the deep reaches of space has been received. It's... apparently the 2nd half of the last one we got. Well if we don't analyze it, who will? Your hosts sit down and discuss the rest of this glorified sampler from Psychopathic Records. Does the latter half hit as well as the first? Does it get us excited for what would come from the label in 2004? Do we struggle to get thro...

From the deepest, darkest corners of space, scientists have come across transmissions from an unknown source. They sound human in nature, but are unlike anything heard before. I mean, unless you completely disregard music that came from underground Detroit from 1992 onward. This week, we decipher these transmissions that have been presented in the form of a CD. Well... half of them. Time constrain...

Not gonna lie, we didn't think we'd ever cover this artist. But here we are. Today we take a look at the pioneer of Acid Rap, the godfather of the wicket shit (his words, not mine). Esham is a member of The Hatchet now and Juggalos can see what this relationship does for the artist and the label. How does this album compare to other releases from Psychopathic? How does it compare to some mainstrea...
