In early February 2014 Faygoluvers.net conducted an interview with [[Insane Clown Posse]], and they said that they hope they will work with some artists that they have been wanting to work with for a while. Also they were asked if they were going to do the second leg of The Mighty Death Pop! Tour, and they said that they will go on tour in 2014 but it won't be called The Mighty Death Pop! Tour. During an interview in March 2014 DJ Paul of Da Mafia 6ix announced that they will be doing a collaboration album with Insane Clown Posse, and will tour to promote the album. In June 2014 Psychopathic Records announced that Insane Clown Posse and Da Mafia 6ix were working on a collaboration album, and Insane Clown Posse posted pictures on their official Instagram page of them and Da Mafia 6ix sitting around in Violent J's home studio. The album is scheduled to be released sometime in August 2014. A few days after Faygoluvers.net conducted the interview with Insane Clown Posse, Psychopathic Records, Insane Clown Posse, Twiztid and Blaze Ya Dead Homie released a picture of the Dark Lotus hand sign stating that all original members (Insane Clown Posse, Twiztid & Blaze Ya Dead Homie) were going to be back in the studio recording a new studio album on all their media outlets. Under the hand sign were Roman numerals translating to (7-29-2014). The album will initially be released at the 2014 GOTJ (July 23, 2014{{snd}}July 27, 2014). In June 2014 Insane Clown Posse announced that they will be releasing their first box set [[The First Six]] with all first six Joker Cards ([[Carnival of Carnage]], [[Ringmaster (album)|Ringmaster]], [[Riddle Box]], [[The Great Milenko]], [[The Amazing Jeckel Brothers]], [[The Wraith: Shangri-La]]/[[The Wraith: Hell's Pit]]), along with a certification of authenticity signed by [[Violent J]] and [[Shaggy 2 Dope]], six tarot cards, and an 8-song EP of all new music titled House of Wax, that will be released on October 28, 2014. In a July 6, 2014, interview Faygoluvers.net conducted with [[Robert Bruce (rapper)|Jumpsteady]], he stated that Psychopathic is currently working with some new supergroups. At the 2014 GOTJ during [[Anybody Killa]]'s seminar, it was announced that he and Big Hoodoo have created a new group called The Have Nots.<ref name="faygoluvers.net">{{cite web |url = http://www.faygoluvers.net/v5/2014/07/anybody-killa-and-big-hoodoo-form-new-group/ |title = Anybody Killa and Big Hoodoo Form New Group – Faygoluvers |date = July 24, 2014 |access-date = July 24, 2014 |archive-date = September 24, 2015 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20150924011052/http://www.faygoluvers.net/v5/2014/07/anybody-killa-and-big-hoodoo-form-new-group/ |url-status = live }}</ref> Insane Clown Posse have composed a group with [[Da Mafia 6ix]] called The Killjoy Club, and will be releasing their debut album titled [[Reindeer Games (TKC album)|Reindeer Games]] on September 2, 2014. ICP, DM6, Madchild, Jelly Roll and Mushroom Head plus others are to go on tour possibly titled "ShockFest" which will run from September 18, 2014{{snd}}October 31, 2014. ICP finally announced that they will release a Psypher featuring artists that are not signed to Psychopathic Records sometime before Hallowicked, including [[Madchild]]. Also announced Otis of AMB and [[DJ Paul]] will both release solo albums on Psychopathic records in 2015. On August 5, 2014, ICP released a promo flyer for their upcoming tour titled "ShockFest" with [[Da Mafia 6ix]], [[Mushroomhead]], Madchild and [[JellyRoll|Jelly Roll]] from September 30, 2014, through October 31, 2014. The tour was originally scheduled to be a 45-date tour, and scheduled to kick off on September 18, 2014, but due to Madchild performing in Australia with his group Swollen Members for a mini tour until September 27, 2014, the tour will now kick off on September 30, 2014, Columbus, Ohio, and will conclude on ICP's 21st annual Hallowicked concert on October 31, 2014, in Detroit, Michigan.

The tour is now scheduled to run from September 25, 2014, in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and will conclude on October 31, 2014, in Detroit. In the booklet released with the Reindeer Games album were four flyers in promotion of new albums. The first was for Insane Clown Posse, it said that the third Joker Card in the second Deck will be released "sooner than you think". The second was for Otis, it said that his debut solo album on Psychopathic will be titled Slaughter and it said that it too will be released "soon". The third was for DJ Paul, it said that his debut solo album on Psychopathic will be titled ''[[Master Of Evil (DJ Paul album)|Master Of Evil]]'' and it said that it too will be released "soon". The fourth was for Da Mafia 6ix, it was for their upcoming album titled "Watch What U Wish" which will be released on October 31, 2014, not on Psychopathic Records. In early October 2014 it was announced that "Watch What U Wish" will be pushed back to a 2015 release creating speculation that Psychopathic will release the album. Instead DM6 will release a mixxtape titled "Hear Some Evil" in October 2014. [[The First Six]] was initially scheduled to be released on October 28, 2014, but after a minor setback it is now scheduled to be released on November 25, 2014.
