    J is a legit good dude. I ran Into him after a beatles tribute concert at the fox like 12 years ago. My gf at the time asked if we could hang out and the guy took us to 2 bars and the strip club in his limo for 2 hrs. It was super cool. He bought us a couple drinks and hung out and talked to us like we were his homies. They dropped us back off at our car and that was that. Super fucking cool guy.

      It especially comes into perspective when you realize that, Jive Records, the first label who EVER signed them back in the post-Ringmaster/Riddlebox days, absolutely refused to circuit their records outside of Detroit, let alone Michigan. They were told that they think their type of music is something only people from Detroit would understand/enjoy. When ICP realized that, they threw a dart at a map of the US and it landed in Texas. Joe, Rob, Joey, Legz Diamond, Billy Bill, Rude Boy, and Alex got in a van and drove to Texas with four boxes full of Riddlebox CD's and cassettes. They then split up into two teams, one went to Dallas and the other went to Houston. After less than a month not only did they completely sell all four boxes but they had record stores in both Dallas and Houston calling Jive to order more.
      Jive congratulated them, said what they did was amazing, and then pulled the exact same shit by refusing to distribute anywhere outside Michigan or Texas because they still thought it was a "niche" thing.
      So, Alex started shopping around for another label and found Hollywood. Under HEAVY scrutiny ICP recorded Great Milenko for Hollywood, only for it to be immediately pulled off the shelves the very same day it got released. After a legal battle, Island Def Jam decided to sign them, but ICP had re-record the entirety of Great Milenko again for numerous reasons (one being that Hollywood made them censor themselves heavily, while Island Def Jam wanted them to be as edgy as possible because they wanted to take advantage of what they thought was going to be a huge media blowup when they revealed ICP's record got pulled).
      So yeah they were signed to labels, but every single label they were on (including Island Def Jam) worked against them to varying degrees rather than help promote them which is - y'know - the entire point of having a label, and at worst hindered them completely forcing them to still do it all on their own with or without a label.

    I feel ya, Violent J. I was diagnosed with heart failure in April of 2022. I had had this swelling in my right foot for awhile, had been trying to find out what was causing it but the doctor didn't know because the tests they did didn't show anything abnormal. Then my right calf started swelling up and I became severely winded, like you described. One night all of a sudden, I could not breathe. I knew I would be dead if I didn't call 911. The ambulance came, I couldn't even go answer the door, they had to force their way in with a cop's help. By the time I was taken to the ambulance I had blacked out, first time in my life, very scary. Woke up in the ER, on a ventilator to help me breathe. Finally I found out what was wrong with me. In my case, I inherited heart failure, it runs on my mom's side. That is what killed her, her twin brother, and several sisters. Thank goodness we are still alive, VJ! Take care of yourself and long life to you.

      Before everyone had the internet and a cell phone, hearing something like The Great Milenko for the first time when you were a little kid just hit different. The only music we had access to was the TV or radio, and most of the chain stores wouldn't even carry rap, death metal, etc. CDs were passed around and shared like.... well nothing today. Nobody does that with anything anymore. But when they did, when you heard shit like ICP for the first time, it just made it that much more alluring. And they're still doing it after all that time.

    Violent J, if you read this, I listened to your music all the time back in the day with my buddy Hector who introduced me to you guys. He just passed away a couple months ago way too young at age 40 from diabetes complications, which doesn't even seem real... But you guys and your music make me think of him. This podcast was great and it's so refreshing to see what a real, authentic dude you are. Keep on doing your thing, man.

    So happy these guys are getting the respect they deserve and it isn't cool to hate them for no reason anymore. They got so much hate just because it was like the "cool" thing to do. Love them or hate them you can't deny they stayed true to themselves and never sold out and always stayed humble. They could've road off into the sunset a million times and be set forever but they kept going ignoring the hate and doing them pretty much strictly for their fans, and you have to respect that.

      I think people just see the paint, the attitude in the music videos/events, and the music itself and assume they are full of hate.
      Like if you really listen it's honestly just like they give their intrusive thoughts an outlet through their music. 90% of their songs are a miss for me personally. But I have always been a fan of Shaggy and J because of the things they say outside of their "character" setting where they can express their own personal outlooks.

    I thoroughly enjoyed this one, I’m so glad he was back on. I knew about ICP as a teen, but in business school (damn near 20 years ago), my professor had us do a study on them (seriously). Ever since, I’ve always had respect for what they’ve built and how they’ve done it. J is a pleasant guy and I wish him well. Also, Miracles is my favorite. I like that they’re humble and don’t take themselves too seriously.
