Wizard Of The Hood

The first EP and first ever solo release from Insane Clown Posse member Violent J This Limited Edition version of Wizard Of The Hood is packaged in a very cool Collector's Tin. Sealed with a yellow sticker, inside contains the CD in a black plastic disc tray, a 2-sided insert with credits/advertisements, and a pack of "Violent Joints" brand rolling papers. The papers are size 1¼ and are made of pure hemp. Only 10,000 were pressed. Released at the 4th Annual Gathering of the Juggalos festival in the "Crystal Forest" near Garrettsville, Ohio. This is a concept EP based on the old Inner City Posse song of the same name from the EP "Dog Beats" which itself was actually a remake of an even older Inner City Posse song called "Wizard Of Delray" from the album "Intelligence & Violence" which is basically a re-telling of "The Wizard of Oz," only instead of a little girl, the main character is a thuggish crack dealer named J. There's 11 tracks total, 1 intro and 10 songs, tracks 10 and 11 are bonus tracks, unique only to the collector's tin version. Album features Monoxide as The Scarecrow, Jamie Madrox as The Tin Man, Blaze Ya Dead Homie as The Lion, Anybody Killa as the door-man, and Shaggy 2 Dope as The Wizard. They are all given writing and performing credit for their lyrics but it doesn't specify as to which tracks they're featured on. Twiztid and Blaze all have additional background vocals throughout the EP after their initial appearance, but none of their actual featured verses are mentioned in the track listing. Track 10 "Bloody Bitch Dead" and track 11 "My Shine" are incorrectly listed and are reversed on the release's track lists. __________________________________________________________________________________ (The following text appears on the EP's covers, spines, and insert) WIZARD OF THE HOOD [PARENTAL ADVISORY EXPLICIT CONTENT] VIOLENT J - WIZARD OF THE HOOD E.P.
