Insane Clown Posse receives hate, praise for clown media

With rap music and clowns blowing up the headlines, it is important to remember when both collide. It’s a creative duo that doubles as colorful clowns and zany rappers. This of course is none other than the Insane Clown Posse.
This is the music group that has given us masterful song writing such as “magnets, how do they work?” Their image is polarizing, with some praising them and some hating them.
This has left some to wonder if there’s a connection between the clown appearances and ICP. Some ponder if the clowns loiter to please the rap duo themselves, Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope.
Their fans, referred to as “Juggalos” are not to be confused with the real killer clowns according to Violent J. In fact, J feels wronged by the treatment of Juggalos stating that they have been “targeted, profiled, and blatantly discriminated.” (www.altpress.com)
The FBI included Juggalos in a list of gangs but have since removed them to due to a lawsuit filed by ICP.
