'''Psychopathic Records''' is an American [[independent record label]] headquartered in [[Farmington Hills, Michigan]]. The label is most associated with the [[hip hop music|hip-hop music]] subgenres [[horrorcore]] and [[rap rock]]. The label was founded in 1991 by Alex Abbiss and hip hop group [[Insane Clown Posse]]. The iconography of a man with a meat cleaver has been used for years as a symbol of the group, [[Juggalo|its fanbase]], and its associates.

In addition to producing music, Psychopathic also produces [[Merchandising|merchandise]], video, and [[professional wrestling]]. Psychopathic runs its own manufacturing and distribution operations for merchandise, with nearly 30 full-time employees.<ref name="Wired">{{cite web |url = https://www.wired.com/magazine/2010/11/ff_icp/all/1?pid=3891 |title = How Two Outcast Rappers Built an Insane Clown Empire |last = Raftery |first = Brian |date = November 29, 2010 |website = Wired.com |access-date = December 1, 2010 |archive-date = November 6, 2012 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20121106033745/http://www.wired.com/magazine/2010/11/ff_icp/all/1?pid=3891 |url-status = live }}</ref> In 2009–2010, the label had about $10 million in annual revenue.<ref name="PopMatters">{{cite web |url = http://www.popmatters.com/pm/article/115375-icps-lucrative-empire-includes-clothing-comic-books-dvds-and-even-wr/ |title = ICP's lucrative empire includes clothing, comic books, DVDs and even wrestling exhibitions |last = McCollum |first = Brian |date = October 27, 2009 |publisher = PopMatters.com |access-date = April 18, 2010 |archive-date = October 20, 2012 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20121020163523/http://www.popmatters.com/pm/article/115375-icps-lucrative-empire-includes-clothing-comic-books-dvds-and-even-wr/ |url-status = live }}</ref><ref name="Nightline">{{Cite news |title = Law Enforcement Claims 'Horrorcore' Genre Incites Crime |work = Nightline |author = Martin Bashir |author2 = Mary Marsh |date = March 9, 2010 |url = https://abcnews.go.com/Nightline/law-enforcement-claims-horrorcore-genre-incites-crime/story?id=9739420 |access-date = June 28, 2020 |archive-date = September 18, 2013 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20130918115335/https://abcnews.go.com/Nightline/law-enforcement-claims-horrorcore-genre-incites-crime/story?id=9739420 |url-status = live }}</ref> The recording studio for the label was called The Lotus Pod.

== History ==

=== Establishment (1991–1994) ===

Following the release of their 1991 [[Extended play|EP]] ''[[Bass-Ment Cuts]]'', Detroit hip hop trio [[Insane Clown Posse|Inner City Posse]], consisting of [[Violent J]], [[Shaggy 2 Dope]], and John Kickjazz (John Utsler), hired local record store owner Alex Abbiss as its manager. Taking the advice of Violent J's brother, [[Robert Bruce (rapper)|Jumpsteady]], the group and Abbiss agreed to create their own label. After debating between the names Mad Paperboy Records and Psychopathic Records, they decided on Psychopathic and the label soon started operating out of Abbiss's mother's basement. A drawing Joseph Utsler scribbled on a napkin, now known as the Hatchet Man, became the company's logo.<ref name="BehindthePaint139">{{cite book |last1 = Bruce |first1 = Joseph |author-link = Violent J |first2 = Hobey |last2 = Echlin |editor-first = Nathan |editor-last = Fostey |title = ICP: Behind the Paint |url = https://archive.org/details/icpbehindpaint00viol |url-access = registration |year = 2003 |edition = 2nd |publisher = Psychopathic Records |location = Royal Oak, Michigan |isbn = 0-9741846-0-8 |pages = [https://archive.org/details/icpbehindpaint00viol/page/139 139]–144 |chapter = Intelligence and Violence }}</ref>

Inner City Posse released their first professionally recorded album, ''[[Dog Beats]]'', on the label later that year. Shortly after, the group underwent a change in style, look, and name to become [[Insane Clown Posse]], and created the [[Dark Carnival (Insane Clown Posse)|Dark Carnival]] concept that would be continued by much of the label's other artists for years to come.<ref name="BehindthePaint179">{{cite book |last1 = Bruce |first1 = Joseph |author-link = Violent J |first2 = Hobey |last2 = Echlin |editor-first = Nathan |editor-last = Fostey |title = ICP: Behind the Paint |url = https://archive.org/details/icpbehindpaint00viol |url-access = registration |year = 2003 |edition = 2nd |publisher = Psychopathic Records |location = Royal Oak, Michigan |isbn = 0-9741846-0-8 |pages = [https://archive.org/details/icpbehindpaint00viol/page/179 179]–185 |chapter = The Dark Carnival }}</ref> [[Esham]] and [[Kid Rock]] were paid to appear on the debut "Insane Clown Posse" album to increase the album's marketability.<ref name="BehindthePaint191">{{cite book |last1 = Bruce |first1 = Joseph |author-link = Violent J |first2 = Hobey |last2 = Echlin |editor-first = Nathan |editor-last = Fostey |title = ICP: Behind the Paint |url = https://archive.org/details/icpbehindpaint00viol |url-access = registration |year = 2003 |edition = 2nd |publisher = Psychopathic Records |location = Royal Oak, Michigan |isbn = 0-9741846-0-8 |pages = [https://archive.org/details/icpbehindpaint00viol/page/191 191]–195 |chapter = The Broken Path of a Dream }}</ref> The group and their label began to gain moderate popularity in the [[Music of Detroit|Detroit area]] following the releases of ''[[Carnival of Carnage]]'' and ''[[Beverly Kills 50187]]'', as well as through their extensive amount of independent promoting. Months before the release of ''Carnival of Carnage'' John Kickjazz left the group. Not wanting to show weakness early in the game, they replaced him with friend and fan Greez-e (Erik Olson). Greez-e's membership was short-lived, however, and after appearing on ''Beverly Kills 50187'' he left the group. ICP has remained a duo ever since.<ref name="BehindthePaint231">{{cite book |last1 = Bruce |first1 = Joseph |author-link = Violent J |first2 = Hobey |last2 = Echlin |editor-first = Nathan |editor-last = Fostey |title = ICP: Behind the Paint |url = https://archive.org/details/icpbehindpaint00viol |url-access = registration |year = 2003 |edition = 2nd |publisher = Psychopathic Records |location = Royal Oak, Michigan |isbn = 0-9741846-0-8 |pages = [https://archive.org/details/icpbehindpaint00viol/page/231 231]–253 |chapter = Ringmaster's Word }}</ref>

=== Expansion and change (1994–2000) ===
{{anchor|Fluctuation and expansion (1994–2000)}}

[[Mike E. Clark]] was selected as the label's core producer, with his recording studio, The Fun House being the main studio. On March 8, 1994, Insane Clown Posse released ''[[Ringmaster (album)|Ringmaster]]'', which sold 40,000 copies independently by the summer. Later that year, Project Born was the first outside act signed to Psychopathic Records with the belief that they would become "the next [[The Dayton Family|Dayton Family]]". The group's debut album, Born Dead, received minimal sales, and they were subsequently dropped from the label in 1995.<ref name="BehindthePaint231" />

Insane Clown Posse signed a record deal with Battery/[[Jive Records]] in 1995 but left the label the following year after it poorly promoted their new album, the ''[[Riddle Box]]''. In 1995, ICP and friends created a group to keep ICP busy until the release of Riddle Box, and called themselves Golden Goldies. Golden Goldies was a comical group whose lyrics focused solely on gold. The group consisted of Psychopathic Records employees and friends. Their only LP, ''Gimme Them Fuckin' Nuggets Bitch, Or I'll Punch Your Fuckin' Face'', was recorded in 1995 in a span of one week and was not publicly released. Golden Goldies was put together for entertainment purposes only. To add more humor to the album, each artist was given only five minutes to write their verses, and had only one take to record them, which resulted in some artists messing up their lines, and lyrics containing "some very strange things." The group held only one live performance, which occurred at the record release party for Insane Clown Posse's [[Riddle Box]]. The group consisted of: Golden Jelly ([[Violent J|Joseph Bruce]]), Gold D ([[Shaggy 2 Dope|Joseph Utsler]]), Golden Gram ([[Robert Bruce (rapper)|Robert Bruce]]), Gold Double B (Billy Bill), Gold Rocks (Alex Abbiss), Gold Digger ([[Mike E. Clark]]), Golden Warrior ([[Legz Diamond|Rich Murrell]]), Golden Frank (Frank G), Gold Teeth (Keith) Rold Gold (Josh), Gold Spud (Kelly Eubanks), Golden Toby (Fink the East Side G) and Gold Spakalantie (Matt Mackalantie). One day after the group left Jive and one day before it signed with [[Hollywood Records]], Insane Clown Posse released ''[[Tunnel of Love (EP)|Tunnel of Love]]'' on its Psychopathic label.<ref name="BehindthePaint268">{{cite book |last1 = Bruce |first1 = Joseph |author-link = Violent J |first2 = Hobey |last2 = Echlin |editor-first = Nathan |editor-last = Fostey |title = ICP: Behind the Paint |url = https://archive.org/details/icpbehindpaint00viol |url-access = registration |edition = second |publisher = Psychopathic Records |location = Royal Oak, Michigan |isbn = 0-9741846-0-8 |pages = [https://archive.org/details/icpbehindpaint00viol/page/268 268]–280 |chapter = Fuck Jive |year = 2003 }}</ref> The group released ''[[The Great Milenko]]'' in 1997 but were notified that Hollywood Records had deleted the album within hours of its release, despite having sold 18,000 copies and reaching number 63 on the [[Billboard 200|''Billboard'' 200]].<ref name="Browne">{{cite magazine |url = https://ew.com/article/1997/07/25/great-milenko/ |title = Review of ''The Great Milenko'' |access-date = May 8, 2008 |last = Browne |first = David |date = July 25, 1997 |magazine = [[Entertainment Weekly]] |archive-date = October 18, 2012 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20121018095713/http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,288784,00.html |url-status = live }}</ref><ref>{{cite news |url = http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1430331/19970704/i_c_p.jhtml |title = Insane Clown Posse Angry At Disney's Decision |access-date = May 4, 2008 |date = July 4, 1997 |publisher = MTV |archive-date = January 15, 2009 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20090115093402/http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1430331/19970704/i_c_p.jhtml |url-status = dead }}</ref> The removal caused a public controversy, creating major mainstream coverage of the group and their Psychopathic label.<ref name="BehindthePaint306">{{cite book |last1 = Bruce |first1 = Joseph |author-link = Violent J |first2 = Hobey |last2 = Echlin |editor-first = Nathan |editor-last = Fostey |title = ICP: Behind the Paint |url = https://archive.org/details/icpbehindpaint00viol |url-access = registration |edition = 2nd |publisher = Psychopathic Records |location = Royal Oak, Michigan |isbn = 0-9741846-0-8 |pages = [https://archive.org/details/icpbehindpaint00viol/page/306 306–314] |chapter = Banned by a Filthy Rat |year = 2003 }}</ref><ref name="Disney-controversy">{{cite news |url = http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1430334/19970627/i_c_p.jhtml |title = Insane Clown Posse Album Recalled |access-date = May 4, 2008 |date = June 27, 1997 |publisher = MTV |archive-date = January 14, 2009 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20090114175658/http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1430334/19970627/i_c_p.jhtml |url-status = dead }}</ref>

In 1997, the label signed [[Myzery]] and former members of the [[House of Krazees]] [[Jamie Spaniolo]] and [[Paul Methric]]. Taking the name of [[Twiztid]], Spaniolo and Methric created the identities of Jamie Madrox and Monoxide Child, and released their first album, ''[[Mostasteless]]'', that year.<ref name="BehindthePaint371" /> Insane Clown Posse, Twiztid, Myzery, and Blaze also formed the [[supergroup (music)|supergroup]] [[Psychopathic Rydas]], and created Joe & Joey Records to release the group's albums to avoid any lawsuits.<ref name="AJB">Insane Clown Posse (1999).

Later that year, [[Island Records]] bought the rights of ''The Great Milenko'' from Hollywood Records and signed Insane Clown Posse and Twiztid to their label.<ref name="BehindthePaint330">{{cite book |last1 = Bruce |first1 = Joseph |author-link = Violent J |first2 = Hobey |last2 = Echlin |editor-first = Nathan |editor-last = Fostey |title = ICP: Behind the Paint |url = https://archive.org/details/icpbehindpaint00viol |url-access = registration |edition = second |publisher = Psychopathic Records |location = Royal Oak, Michigan |isbn = 0-9741846-0-8 |pages = [https://archive.org/details/icpbehindpaint00viol/page/330 330–335] |chapter = Disney's Hoe Tactics |year = 2003 }}</ref> Island also helped Psychopathic Records expand into the movie business by funding Insane Clown Posse US$250,000 to begin work on a full-length movie, ''[[Big Money Hustlas]]'', written by Violent J.<ref name="BehindthePaint414">{{cite book |last1 = Bruce |first1 = Joseph |author-link = Violent J |first2 = Hobey |last2 = Echlin |editor-first = Nathan |editor-last = Fostey |title = ICP: Behind the Paint |url = https://archive.org/details/icpbehindpaint00viol |url-access = registration |year = 2003 |edition = 2nd |publisher = Psychopathic Records |location = Royal Oak, Michigan |isbn = 0-9741846-0-8 |pages = [https://archive.org/details/icpbehindpaint00viol/page/414 414]–433 |chapter = Big Money Hustlas }}</ref> The film was released through [[Island Def Jam Music Group]], Psychopathic Video, and Non-Homogenized Productions on July 18, 2000. In 2001 they were the first record label/music group to do a tour showing their own movie in concert venues across the US.

Following their success in [[World Wrestling Entertainment|WWF]], [[World Championship Wrestling|WCW]], and [[Extreme Championship Wrestling|ECW]], Insane Clown Posse founded the [[professional wrestling promotion]] [[Juggalo Championship Wrestling]] in 1999 and created the Psychopathic Sports department. In July 2000, Psychopathic Records staged the first annual [[Gathering of the Juggalos]] (GOTJ) at the Novi Expo Center in [[Novi, Michigan]]. Described by Bruce as a "Juggalo Woodstock", the Gathering of the Juggalos drew over 7,000 people to Novi, Michigan, for the two day event. Both Insane Clown Posse and Twiztid permanently returned to Psychopathic later that year, and the label soon built its own recording studio, named The Lotus Pod.<ref name="BehindthePaint470">{{cite book |last1 = Bruce |first1 = Joseph |author-link = Violent J |first2 = Hobey |last2 = Echlin |editor-first = Nathan |editor-last = Fostey |title = ICP: Behind the Paint |url = https://archive.org/details/icpbehindpaint00viol |url-access = registration |year = 2003 |edition = 2nd |publisher = Psychopathic Records |location = Royal Oak, Michigan |isbn = 0-9741846-0-8 |pages = [https://archive.org/details/icpbehindpaint00viol/page/470 470–496] |chapter = Hatchet Rising }}</ref> Twiztid released the album ''[[Freek Show]]'', which debuted number 51 on ''Billboard'' 200.<ref>[{{BillboardURLbyName|artist=twiztid|chart=all}} Billboard.com – Artist Chart History – Twiztid]</ref>

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.

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.

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.

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.
