On this episode of Lipps Service, Scott Lipps sits down with Shaggy 2 Dope of Insane Clown Posse for a raw, unfiltered look at how ICP built a movement from the ground up. Shaggy revisits growing up broke in Detroit, meeting Violent J, and the earliest days of hustling, passing out flyers, wrestling shows, and navigating real gang-adjacent street situations that shaped their worldview. He breaks down the inspiration behind the face paint, the transition from Inner City Posse, and the creation of the Dark Carnival mythology that helped define an entirely new genre. The conversation also dives into dangerous early shows, the Disney/Hollywood Records fallout, and how media attacks, industry feuds, and even FBI scrutiny only reinforced the Juggalos’ loyalty and culture. Shaggy reflects on the power of the Gathering of the Juggalos, ICP’s latest record, wild industry stories, and his personal Top 5 hip-hop artists, offering a definitive look at the controversy, community, and resilience that continue to define ICP’s legacy.2:25 how ICP met3:58 growing up in Detroit poor 6:30 on the early beginnings 7:52 on his first musical memory 10:20 on the early wrestling days13:40 on passing out flyers for those early shows15:00 on the idea for the makeup and KISS 20:20 on inner city posse22:00 on early gang kid situations23:57 on creating a genre27:52 on the dark carnival32:45 on the early dangerous shows34:45 the Disney era.
