DVLH http://www.lukehadley.com The Riddlebox is the third studio album by American hip hop group Insane Clown Posse, released on October 10, 1995 by Jive Records. It is the third Joker's Card entry in   more...the group's Dark Carnival saga. The eponymous Riddlebox is a jack-in-the-box that decides whether your soul is sent to Shangri-La or Hell's Pit in the afterlife. The album's themes mostly revolve around those of death; in "12", Insane Clown Posse rapper Violent J takes revenge and kills 12 juror members who were involved in sentencing him to death. There are four different versions of the album: the standard pressing, a version containing a bonus track of snippets from four (h?d) p.e. songs, a version with reversed colors on the disc and a remastered version. The Riddlebox was the second Insane Clown Posse album to be certified Gold. The album spawned one single, "The Joker's Wild".

The album contains 16 studio tracks. "Chicken Huntin'", which was remixed for The Riddlebox, was previously released on Insane Clown Posse's 1994 album The Ringmaster. "Dead Body Man" was also previously released in 1994, on the group's second EP The Terror Wheel, in a slightly lower key.

The album makes several references to American popular culture. "The Joker's Wild" is based on the quiz show of the same name, though Insane Clown Posse's rendition is set in Hell and is used as a means to punish the wicked rather than reward people. "Ol' Evil Eye" is loosely based around Edgar Allan Poe's famous short story The Tell-Tale Heart, and features excerpts from the story being read. The Great Milenko is the fourth of six "Joker's Cards" albums released by the Insane Clown Posse. The Great Milenko is a necromancer and master of illusions, who tempts people into following a path of hedonism and evil for material comforts. Released in 1997, this is perhaps Insane Clown Posse's most popular album; it features some of ICP's most famous tracks, including "Hokus Pokus", "Boogie Woogie Wu", "The Neden Game", "Down With The Clown", and "Hall of Illusions".

The album was recorded at the studios of Hollywood Records, a Disney-owned record label. After recording was completed, a board of Disney representatives threatened to halt the release of the album unless some significant changes were made to its material. Fearing that their major-label debut would never see the light of day, ICP obliged and was forced to remove three whole songs from the album, and alter the content of others, as requested by Disney. However, just hours after the album's initial release, it was unexpectedly pulled from the shelves, ICP's upcoming tour was cancelled, and they were dropped from the record label. It was later revealed that Disney had received much criticism from certain religious organizations, and in fear of tarnishing their reputation, forced Hollywood Records to drop the act.

A media frenzy soon followed, fueled by ICP appearances on MTV expressing outrage over their plight by Hollywood Records. Originally unwilling to nullify ICP's recording contract and relinquish ownership of the album, a deal was eventually reached with Island Records (which ironically was owned at the time by Hollywood's then-distributor PolyGram), who promptly rereleased the album in uncut form. In the end, the controversy turned out to be a blessing in disguise for ICP; the high-profile debacle had created huge public interest in the group and their music. The album went on to become certified platinum. The Calm is an Extended play by Insane Clown Posse that was released on May 17, 2005. This CD is the first after ICP's Jokers Card saga. The title refers to the popular phrase "the calm before the storm". The intro sets up The Tempest, their next CD released on March 20, 2007.

Insane Clown Posse (commonly known as ICP) is an American rap duo originally from Wayne, Michigan but formed in the neighborhood of Delray. ICP consists of Violent J (Joseph Bruce) and Shaggy 2 Dope (Joseph   more...Utsler). The duo was originally part of a larger group known as Inner City Posse, which broke up in 1992. The duo has earned one platinum album and four gold albums.[1] They also have starred in their own feature film and formed their own wrestling federation JCW, Juggalo Championship Wrestling (formerly Juggalo Championshit Wrestling). ICP has dedicated followers, known as Juggalos and/or Juggalettes. ICP began in the late 1980s, when a small group of rappers known as the Inner City Posse were performing locally in Detroit. In 1990 Joseph Bruce ("Violent J") released Intelligence and Violence along with D-Lyrical. Then he, along with his long time friend, Joseph Ustler ("Shaggy 2 Dope") released "Bass-ment Cuts" in 1991.

The first release that gained them local attention was Dog Beats in 1991. This album led to the beginning of a long lasting and fulfilling relationship with their manager, Alex Abbiss. After gaining a certain level of experience in music, the group decided they wanted to move in a different direction. Then one night in late 1991 Violent J had a strange dream "of a clown, a carnival spirit, with six joker cards in his hands". That marked the beginning of the Insane Clown Posse.[citation needed] ICP would release six "Jokers Cards", warning the world of impending doom. Each Joker's Card album insert featured the cryptic message "After All Six Have Risen The End Of Time Will Consume Us All". Soon, ICP began their "Journey of the Dark Carnival" by starting work on the first Joker's Card titled Carnival Of Carnage. This also began their longtime friendship with producer Mike E. Clark, who would produce their music up until 2001 and again in 2006. With the release of The Wraith albums, the Jokers Card era ended. In 2005, the band released an EP entitled The Calm, which was to be the prelude to their next album, The Tempest. The ICP produced the album, which featured a new sound.[6] However, The Calm is widely regarded as Insane Clown Posse's worst album.[citation needed]

In November 2005, ICP released their fourth compilation album, Forgotten Freshness Volume 4. Unlike their other compilation albums, Forgotten Freshness Volume 4 contained several new songs. The album's single, "The People," was made into a music video in 2006. The video features ICP rehearsing the song in their studio, with photos of juggalos and fans flashing on the screen. This marks the first time ICP has made a music video from a non-studio album.

In 2006, Shaggy 2 Dope released his first full-length solo album, Fuck The Fuck Off. It was his first solo work since 1994's Fuck Off EP. Shortly afterwards, Insane Clown Posse released their first remix album, called The Wraith: Remix Albums, which contained remixes of most of the tracks off both "Wraith" albums.

In February 2007, ICP were featured on one of the final episodes of VH1's The White Rapper Show.

On February 23, 2007 ICP released the first single for The Tempest, entitled "I Do This." They also announced that Twiztid would join them on their Tempest World Tour. This was quickly followed by a second track, "Haunted Bumps," and a photo, presumably the cover, which features ICP riding a roller coaster and a new logo composed of Insane Clown Posse written in lightning.

After a long delay, The Tempest was finally released on March 20, 2007. It was met with a mixed response from fans. Despite the mixed response, most fans agreed it was much better than The Calm.[citation needed]

An advertisement inside the album announced that the next EP, Eye of the Storm, would be released at the 2007 Gathering of the Juggalos. The Tempest debuted at number twenty on the U.S. Billboard 200, selling some 33,000 copies in its first week.[1] As of June 2007, it had sold around 70,000 copi  less

The first Japanese to become a professional wrestler in the Western style was former sumo wrestler Sorakichi Matsuda, who went to the United States in the 1880s and was somewhat successful. Attempts by him to popularize the game in his native land, however, fell short and he ended back in America, where he died young.

Subsequent attempts before and after World War II failed to get off the ground initially, until Japan saw the advent of its first big star, Rikidozan, who made the sport popular beginning in 1951.

Many Japanese wrestling groups have seen a significant downturn in popularity in the past decade due to a failure to introduce new talent and copying many unpopular ideas from the U.S.[citation needed] The few women's groups that remain are struggling to survive while the men have seen a big drop in their drawing power as Japanese fans are increasingly turning to mixed martial arts competitions such as K-1 or the PRIDE Fighting Championships, which had pro wrestlers as its early exponents. WWE is also trying to make inroads in Japan by promoting cards on its own instead of through co-promotion as in the past with New Japan and SWS, mostly by featuring some of its wrestlers who once competed for Japanese promotions in the main events.  less
