Insane Clown Posse
by Chris Nieratko
december 2002
One of the less intelligent clown make-up-wearing rap acts on the market, ICP keeps shit mad monosyllabic. With a strong background in terms such as "faggot" and "suck my dick" they have created a cult following by catering to the deaf and retarded. To prove their lack of mental depth they have even gone so far as to dis' The-killer-of-all-things-alive Mr. Ted Nugent. Can you get any smarter? Ted will shoot them in the ass and cook them for dinner.
Is this Violent J?
That's right. The one-half of the greatest duo in rock 'n' roll on the planet we live on and the other planets we don't live on.
Are you the violent one?
Actually, I'm a friendly, calm, peaceful person that enjoys picnics and church choirs.
ICP, how'd you come up with that acronym?
Insane Clown Posse. Before that it was Inner City Posse. We were street-gang wannabes, you know.
Did you wear makeup in your street gang?
No. We were just thugs. But we weren't much of a street gang, you know? We tried to be though. Man, for like 17-year-old kids we were some bad motherfuckers.
Do yous guys think you're really insane?
What kind of question is that? You ain't got no better questions?
I'm saying you're in the band Insane Clown Posse. I'm just wondering if you think you're insane.
I think I'm an entertainer, and we put on the Insane Clown Posse. We're insane, off the hook compared to these other pussy-ass groups.
I don't think you're insane. I think you're more quirky. Don't you think that'd be a better name, the Quirky Clown Posse?
Sure. It's a little too late for that. We've been running with Insane Clown Posse for about ten years now.
But QCP sounds more gangster, doesn't it?
Maybe in your mind. Why don't you start a band. I bet you don't do as good as we do.
How much do you weigh?
I'm not sure I haven't been on a scale in about a year. Last time I was on a scale, I was arrested.
What does that mean? Last time you were on a scale you were arrested?
I'm saying they weigh you when you're arrested.
What were you arrested for?
Beating up some kid in Flagstaff, Arizona. We were sitting in a barber shop, and I was getting my face faded, and this kid comes in there and says, "Hey, man, are you guys ICP?" And we said, "No." And he said, "Good, ''cause they suck!" Obviously, he knew it was us, and he was just testing our patience. So when he said that we were like, "Fuck you," and this fight ensued.
You showed him that you don't suck, huh?
I do suck. I suck titty nipples. And maybe an occasional Blow Pop. But nothing more, nothing less.
Do you wear the makeup to bed?
If I'm fucking a chick that asks me to wear it as part of her personal fantasy, sure.
Hey, I'm interviewing the Nuge tomorrow.
Oh, hell, yeah. Tell him he's the shit. We diss him in our songs because he's the shit. We didn't mean it like that.
You dissed the Nuge on accident?
No. We dissed him on purpose. We said in the song "Fuck the World," we said, "Fuck Nugent. Like anybody gives a fuck. You like to hunt a lot. So fuckin' what?" But we're the Insane Clown Posse, we always diss people. Tell him on a real level, we fuckin' think he's the shit, man. If he takes it wrong, fuck him. Tell him that. If he's still pissed off about it, tell him to suck my dick because we didn't' mean nothing by it. But if he wants beef, he's got beef. I'll stick a fucking flame arrow up his ass. I'll hunt that motherfucker down. I know where he lives. I read something in an interview he did, and he was like, "I'm scarier than those two clowns are on their scariest day." Obviously he's taking the beef a little too serious. So tell him to chill the fuck out.
I'm not sure what I'm supposed to say to him. Am I supposed to say that you really like him a lot, but he could suck your dick?
If he's pissed about it. We're the Insane Clown Posse. We call it out on people. That's our gimmick. We're something new for a change.
So, if he's not pissed, he shouldn't suck your dick?
No. Yeah. If he's not pissed. If he understands that we didn't mean anything by it, we love him. You know what I mean? But if he's like, "I take that seriously. I'm a rock 'n' roll legend," then he can fuck off!
What if he's cool with the diss, then gets pissed when I say that he can suck your dick?
Because I respect that it won't have to go to that. I hope that he knows that we love him. I'm just speaking for the next round, in case it's negative. Go ahead and keep that extra curve up in your back pocket tucked away in case you need it for necessary use.
So I shouldn't bring the dick sucking out until I know how he feels?
Exactly. I trust you, brother. So if he says, "Oh, okay, I dig that." Say, "Hell, yeah. We think he's the bomb, and we think he's the shit. We can only hope our career becomes half as fresh as his career."
But secretly, even if he says he likes you guys, you're still thinking you want him to suck your dick?
No. Not at all. Truly. Honestly. I think he's the shit.
Okay. I just got to make sure I got it straight. Do you like everyone that you diss, is that how it works? Usually, yeah.
So you like Eminem?
Yeah. He's a great MC, and he's got hella-fly talent. And it's not my fault he's got his lips on everyone's dick, and he rips everything off. He just rips our shit off. I mean, he's not shocking. Ooh, he raps about killing his mom. Man, these motherfuckers in Detroit have been rapping about that forever.
They've been killin' their moms for years.
Exactly. I'm just saying, he ain't spooky.
Let's say he slipped you a note in class, and he said, "I like you. Do you like me? Circle Y or circle N."
I'd think he was a fag.
But what would you circle?
I'd say no. Get the fuck out of here, faggot. Flippin' me a note, you little bitch. That's exactly what I'd do, then get up and beat his ass. I'd say, "You trying to fuck me, you faggot?" I'd kick him in the face.
You wouldn't be flattered?
No.
Not a little bit flattered?
Hey, bro. I've been answering everything as quickly, as truthfully as I can, man. I would tell you if I was flattered.
Can you juggle chainsaws?
Um, no.
