Why do the Insane Clown Posse claim to be christians when their song lyrics are so santanic?

Question

I've been a juggalo rap listener for over a year now, and right now I'm starting to feel doubtful about them and their song lyrics. They may have claimed that they follow God (mentioned in their song Unveiling) but it doesn't make up for the fact that they always rap about smoking weed, having sex, killing people with hatchets and machettes over stupid stuff, and all of the non-stop cursing they have in every song they have written. I don't understand! Those lyrics don't sound very christian to me. I also have a bunch of juggalos going to my school without any teachers noticing the clown and hatchenman stuff they're wearing. I asked them about them and they're saying that they're just hardcore christians. I need an explanation of why they have to talk about all of those sinful acts in every song they write. I know that some "juggalos" may actually kill people people, but it usually isn't because of the song lyris of ICP or any other juggalo rappers. I'm starting to realize that I'm very chirstian, and If I don't find a good reason why they have to talk about so many horrible sins, I'm gonna quit listening to them for good!

Ok, First off I'm gonna say this, Either you're a Juggalo or you're not...Straight as that...If you "stop" being a Juggalo then you never were one in the first place you were just a fan or going through a faze..



But here's why they've always sang about the things they've sang about....Starting way back in the day ICP had just came out with their first Joker's Card, The Carnival of Carnage...Now at this time it was all entertainment, although CoC is part of the Dark Carnival saga they really didn't have near as much of an idea of whut they were doing or whut the Carnival was as much yet...But, CoC drew people in.



Then in Ringmaster, they really started to more-so come into their own-I suppose you'd say-They really had more of the hidden messages than CoC, If you listen to The Dead One it says "Have some faith", "Life goes on...For Some" and "Christ help you"...But it does not really make these lyrics so clear because, why? They didn't want to make it so known...yet. You see they were drawing people in with these lyrics about killing and the like, lots of people who didn't even believe in God at the time...



Of Course there were 3 more Joker Cards before The Wraith: Shangri-La, but no need to really go through all those, if you're a Juggalo then you already know the hidden truths...But I do wanna say in Amazing Jeckel Brothers in the song Echo Side it has a reverse message saying "Fvck the devil, Fvck that sh*t. We believe in life legit. If you gettin' whut we say, why you throw your soul away?"...This is reverse because they weren't ready to tell people the truth...Because, by this time, they had so many people who were listening, and the people didn't understand whut it was, but they got this amazing feeling from the music, the Carnival...



They didn't know that the Carnival was code for God the whole time...That's how it was meant to be...Because they drew people in who didn't (but also did) believe in God, but then they felt the powerful feeling that it gave them, then ICP told the Juggalo World "Truth is we follow God!. We've always been behingd him. The Carnival is God and may all Juggalo find him!"...Now the Juggalos knew...It led many to believe in God...But, also weeded out the fakes who weren't really, truly down with the clown...They weren't down no matter whut...



But there is a moral meaning behind every Joker's Card, ya just gotta read between the lines...See whut the haters can not...The truth...



The point of all this: It was entertainment. It brought many people to God.



And it does to this day.



I'm Christian and I love all their lyrics, the ones about killing and everything...Can't help it, it's just who I am...I'm a Juggalette...A part of the Juggalo Family..And I know there's nothing wrong with that...As crazy as it may sound to some, I don't care, But I've asked God about it...I feel like I have a very close relationship with God...If he feels it's wrong for me to be a Juggalette, then he wouldn't have made me one...And he'd steer me down a different path...You're born a Juggalo...You don't just become one, if you're a Juggalo then you were all along, you just didn't know it yet.



I hoped I've helped ya Homie...



If you realize you never were a Juggalo then that's fine...You woulda left the Family sooner or later anyways... But if you know you're a Juggalo then MCL...And I'll see ya in Shangri-La...

It's called marketing. KISS, Ozzy, and Alice Cooper all did everything from paint their faces to biting heads off of animals, all in order to sell albums and concert tickets. Just because an artist sings explicit songs or behaves a certain way doesn't mean they have no morals or values or faith or religion. If you were to watch a recent Alice Cooper interview, you'd find an astonishingly intelligent man with high morals and values, but you'd never have known it from his early days. It's a marketing ploy to sell records. They're making a living like everyone else, this is just how they sell their records, from their lyrics to the throwing of Faygo in the audience at their concerts, and ICP has certainly sold plenty in their time.

It's very possible to learn to sing well. You just need to know the right methods. Learn here https://tr.im/OFUUc



Singing teachers will cost money and can be expensive so they're not for everyone. Singing can be learned so it's not an "either you have it or you don't" kind of thing.



Whether you sound like crap or you're decent, I recommend this singing course. It's one of the best methods to learn to sing well in a short amount of time. It's all about using efficient techniques that work.

Answer 5

Im happy to see that the Holy Spirit is convicting you regardin the music of Psychopathic Records. Im a former juggalo I was involved in that stuff from the ages 12 to 22. Insane Clown Posse are not Christians they are children of the devil. I do not need to go in depth about their music to expose them as such all I need to do is tell you what the word of God says.



1 John chapter 3 verses 4-10.

Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness and sin is lawlessness and do you know that he Jesus was manifested to take away our sins and in him there is no sin whoever abides in him does not sin whoever sins has neither seen him nor known him.LITTLE CHILDREN LET NO ONE DECIEVE YOU he who practices righteousness is righteous just as he is righteous he who sins is of the devil for the devil has sent from the beginning for this purpose the Son of God was manifested that he might destroy the works of the devil

hmm if i could remember it id tell you but im pretty sure i remember a scripture somewhere that talks about people that in the end times claim the holy spirit but deny its power i see that as a prophecy of all this stuff i know what you mean though if i were you id take it on a song by song basis thats what i do with my metal like if you find a song thats offensive and breaks Gods law dont listen too it just sort of filter through it i find you miss out on too much good music by just refusing to listen to whole bands altoghther(Theres not much good christian music unfourntently especially for me since i love metal)

In case you haven't noticed, christians aren't exactly known for following their ideals. The crusaders butchered people in the name of god and christianity. The republican party insists that they're upholding christian ideals but all those guys do is cheat on their wives with big black guys named Ben. Catholic priests are notorious for molesting little boys, so I think I'll take the less than christian song lyrics over any of the aforementioned acts.

Answer 9

If you're that worried about it don't sing along or listen. Tom Araya from Slayer is catholic but plays Satanic stuff. Doesn't mean he believes in it or preaches it
