Juggalo Judgment

Mike Check, Episode 26 - YUM YUM PRESCRIPTION

Just a year after his debut LP on Psychopathic Records, Boondox is back with an EP. That southern hooligan just couldn't be stopped, and even just a little more music from him would help silence the naysayers of his dedication to the label, right? Does Boondox expand on his scarecrow roots? Does he venture into darker territory? Is that dueling banjo/harmonica section on "Southern Nights" just flat-out awesome as fuck? Find out now as we get into the Halloween spirit (that's a stretch, I know). Be careful going through the patch; you might find... PunkinHed.   Hit us up on our socials here: https://linktr.ee/JuggaloJudgment, or get at one of us directly on Twitter @MikeSpohnTheSEJ and @Schmeev, OR hit up Mike on Instagram @StraightEdgeJuggalo.

Ep. 70 - PunkinHed

We got some new albums to listen to and some new albums announced to briefly discuss, but let's be real: Mike is going to his first concert in nearly 2 years later this week. That's all he's been looking forward to, and the post-concert depression is gonna hit HARD after. Let's get prepped!

Mike Check, Episode 25 - CONCERT TIME!

You know who loves remixes? Schmeev. He can't get enough of them. Anytime the word "remix" is even hinted at, he gets super hype, ESPECIALLY when it's something by Insane Clown Posse. Well in 2007, ICP predicted that Schmeev would wanna hear some remixes from their most recent LP, and decided to give the Juggalos some of them, and even audio and vocal tracks on their own so they could remix to their heart's desire! See Schmeev, ICP DO listen. Are the selections for tracks suitable for the album? Did the producers understand the original feel of the songs and make their own versions that still hit that mark? Does Schmeev finally get his fill of remixes? Find out today as we take a look at... The Tempest DJ Mix Kit.   Hit us up on our socials here: https://linktr.ee/JuggaloJudgment, or get at one of us directly on Twitter @MikeSpohnTheSEJ and @Schmeev, OR hit up Mike on Instagram @StraightEdgeJuggalo.

Ep. 69 - The Tempest DJ Mix Kit

No bullshit here: Mike has been listening to the single most anticipated album he's had in a VERY long time. How much could he possibly gush over it? Find out today!

Mike Check, Episode 24 - Prescription: Very Likely

We talked about remixes much longer than Schmeev would have liked, and while it was fun to stroll down memory lane, it's time to move on. ICP knew this and were finally ready to drop their next LP in the spring of 2007, their first effort with the return of Mike E. Clark. After 6 years apart from the clowns, could MEC harness the same magic that he and ICP were known to create together? Were ICP continuing with what they started on The Calm or did they decide to do something entirely different? Does this have as much of a "theme" as a Joker Card? Most importantly, is a rollercoaster scarier than a world-ending storm? Find out the answers to these and more today. Get your poncho and rain boots, strap in, and keep all limbs inside the ride at all times. This is... The Tempest.   Hit us up on our socials here: https://linktr.ee/JuggaloJudgment, or get at one of us directly on Twitter @MikeSpohnTheSEJ and @Schmeev, OR hit up Mike on Instagram @StraightEdgeJuggalo.

Mike Check, Episode 23 - Take 2 Of These And Call Me In The Morning

Remember when we talked about Hell's Pit? Times were... Well, actually, they were about the same as they are now, to be honest. Talking about ICP's darkest album to date was not an easy task, and so we had some help back then to tackle the endeavor. Since then, we've grown wise and we're ready to bitch-slap anything the clowns could throw our way! Do we find out if this collection of remixes is more cohesive than the last? Should some of the producers have taken more than 10 minutes to come up with a beat to slap on their respective song? And does Mike FINALLY convince Schmeev that a remix is better than the original? These questions and more will be answered here, so grab those a cappella tracks and bust out Frooty Loops, because this is... The Wraith Remix Albums: Hell's Pit. (Yeah, it's the same as last time, but the last tiny bit is different. Remix, yo.)   Hit us up at JuggaloJudgment@gmail.com, @JuggaloJudgment on Twitter/Instagram, Juggalo Judgment on Facebook, or get at one of us directly on Twitter @MikeSpohnTheSEJ and @Schmeev, OR hit up Mike on Instagram @StraightEdgeJuggalo.

Ep. 67 - The Wraith Remix: Hell's Pit

Did some stuff get announced in the last 2 weeks? Yup. Did a fuckton of news crop up at The Gathering? Yup. Did Mike experience utter euphoria from professional wrestling in the last 2 weeks that he's forced to talk about it today? You bet your sweet bippy he did! Today's episode is just the right amount of excitement mixed with some solemn vibes, so peep it.

Mike Check, Episode 22 - It's Summer, Let's SLAM Some Info!

Remember when we talked about The Wraith: Shangri-La? Times were simpler back then. We were in the same room recording. The audio quality was under par (not our fault). Schmeev was working 3 jobs just to make ends meet while still taking time to visit the local orphanage to bring some diamond rain to the children. Meanwhile, Mike just had a crisis of faith when he realized how much he loved The Wraith compared to his first love, The Amazing Jeckel Brothers. But something we knew was that The Wraith, the end of it all, it was special. What we also knew was that Schmeev never likes remixes. But we've matured since then! Can an album so pivotal in the careers of the clowns be touched again? Do new producers provide a fresh take on some classic carnie tracks? Does Schmeev decide that he DOES like the remix of "Juggalo Homies" that we encountered way back on Forgotten Freshness 4? These questions and more will be answered here, so grab those a cappella tracks and bust out Frooty Loops, because this is... The Wraith Remix Albums: Shangri-La.    Hit us up at JuggaloJudgment@gmail.com, @JuggaloJudgment on Twitter/Instagram, Juggalo Judgment on Facebook, or get at one of us directly on Twitter @MikeSpohnTheSEJ and @Schmeev, OR hit up Mike on Instagram @StraightEdgeJuggalo.

Ep. 66 - The Wraith Remix: Shangri-La

Maybe it was a good thing Mike didn't have an episode a few weeks ago, because there's SO MUCH to talk about now! Today, he goes over the plethora of events that the underground has going on this month, as well as some other things happening later this year. Is he going to any of them? Maybe. But, like, none of the super big ones. That's life. Enjoy!

Mike Check, Episode 21 - Events Galore!

It's August, which means it's officially the spooky season! Wait, it's not? Well someone needs to tell all the white girls that it's STILL SUMMER, DAMMIT. YOU CAN WAIT 2 MORE MONTHS. Anyways, you should probably let Twiztid know as well, but October of 2006, they at least released something that made sense for the time. Twiztid LOVES Halloween, and at their yearly Fright Fest event they decided to release a compilation of songs from prior Hallowicked and Fright Fest shows. How do these stack up to the Hallowicked tracks we covered from ICP's 2005 Hallowicked Compilation? Do Twiztid nail the vibe of scaring the shit out of you? Are there times where they just harass young trick-or-treating children just for the hell of it? And does this have one of the best posse cuts we've come across so far on this show? Find out today as we get set for Cryptic Collection 4... Wait, no, that's not it... People USED to call it that until the ACTUAL Cryptic Collection 4 came out in 2011 and threw everything off... That must mean this is... Cryptic Collection: Halloween Edition.   Hit us up at JuggaloJudgment@gmail.com, @JuggaloJudgment on Twitter/Instagram, Juggalo Judgment on Facebook, or get at one of us directly on Twitter @MikeSpohnTheSEJ and @Schmeev, OR hit up Mike on Instagram @StraightEdgeJuggalo.

Ep. 65 - Cryptic Collection: Halloween Edition

ICP have never been quiet of their distaste of rednecks. Hell, they mention it on pretty much every album. So it's not too hard to understand the confusion that many Juggalos must have felt when Psychopathic Records signed Boondox, the first Southern artist on the label. Violent J has made his fair share of questionable decisions in the past, so it was certainly fair to question his choice here. Was Boondox capable of shutting down any naysayers? Did his Southern flair help him stand out from the rest of the group? Was he worthy of his spot on the label with an arguably better contract than what AMB had? Find out these answers and more today. So grab your finest hoe, spread your seeds, and be prepared for... The Harvest.   Hit us up at JuggaloJudgment@gmail.com, @JuggaloJudgment on Twitter/Instagram, Juggalo Judgment on Facebook, or get at one of us directly on Twitter @MikeSpohnTheSEJ and @Schmeev, OR hit up Mike on Instagram @StraightEdgeJuggalo.
