How Dark Lotus Brings the Juggalo Family Together

There are super groups (groups comprised of one or more musicians that are successful in their own right) in every musical genre. Recent examples of such include Them Crooked Vultures (Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters, John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin, and Josh Homme of Queens of the Stone Age and Eagles of Death Metal), Velvet Revolver (Scott Weiland of Stone Temple Pilots, Slash of Guns n’ Roses, + more), and Broken Social Scene who have so many members it would take the entire page to list them all. You may have noticed that all of these super groups are in the rock or indie rock vein, and that’s true for most super groups throughout history, except for those Psychopathic Records super groups appreciated by the Juggalo family! Yes, there are indeed super groups that the Juggalo family approves of because they’re made up of Psychopathic Records recording artists. Psychopathic Rydas is one that receives a decent amount of attention from the Juggalo family, but Dark Lotus (made up of Psychopathic Records artists Insane Clown Posse, Twiztid and Blaze Ya Dead Homie) is the Psychopathic Records supergroup that receives the most attention. And don’t think for a second that they’re not appreciative! Find an excerpt from Dark Lotus song "Juggalo Family" below that details how much they owe and how connected they feel to the Juggalo family. So many people in the matrix die alone, hey Not me, my soul belongs to Juggalos, they Keep me going when I’m down and out I pick up the phone drop them a line and hear them shout Saying Twiztid is the shit, and I’m down with the clown Dark Lotus for life until I’m dead in the ground I give a shout to all my homies and killers who get it started All my Juggalos always representing for the departed That verse alone represents how Monoxide child of Twiztid feels towards the Juggalo family, and you can believe they respect him more for airing out his true feelings. Now it would be one thing if Monoxide Child was doing this on his own as a solo Psychopathic Records artist, but when you factor in the other Psychopathic Records members of Dark Lotus who more or less give the same message to the Juggalo family, it grows even stronger. Considering Dark Lotus has been a Psychopathic Records super group since 1998, it’s looking like, at least for now, Dark Lotus will not suffer the same fate as its super group contemporaries. However, Dark Lotus’ last album, The Opaque Brotherhood, was released by Psychopathic Records in 2008 so they should probably deliver something in the near future to keep the Dark Lotus love strong from the Juggalo family. Maybe Dark Lotus will get their act together after ICP releases The Mighty Death Pop! later this year, the biggest Psychopathic Records release in years. Resource Box Psychopathic Records super group Dark Lotus has been a favorite of the Juggalo family ever since they formed in 1998.
