Track 5 is another Young Wicked killer track. To me, this song has an old school vibe to it, and it reminds me of something we would of done maybe during the days of “Bizzar/Bizaar” back in like 2000 or so. It asks alot of questions like why are so many things fucked up like this and like that? For example “Why did Robin Williams have to kill himself?” is one of the questions we ask in this song. On this song Shaggy and myself trade raps back and forth about many of the fucked up things that seem like they are wrong with the world. Song 4 is a fresh ass beat by Psychopathic’s house producer Kuma. And I do say so because I just said I did. I say it’s pretty fuckin’ dope if I don’t say so myself. I really like the bounce and flow of this song. The song is basically about a psychopath who’s mad at his shrink because even though he’s been taking the Benapryl as perscribed, he’s still feeling and acting crazy and it hasn’t been helping him at all. Song 3 is another dope ass track by Young Wicked that I really, really like called “Benapryl.” Benapryl is an anti psychotic or anti depressent drug that I completely made up to represent all the anti psychotic and anti depresent drugs out there like Prozac, Zoloft, Buspar and Xanax and all of them shits. The lyrics are pretty goofy and sometimes a bit stupid like the part where I kiss Shaggy on the cheek, cause that would never happen in real life no matter fuckin’ what. It tells the crazy ass stories of a car thief and a dope dealer who both find themselves in the middle of a high speed chase with the cops and doing their fuckin’ best to avoid getting pinched and heading back to the old pokey once again. It’s about 2 crooks who are running from the cops and vowing to never again go back to jail. It’s a dope ass song and even before we added the police siren sound effects, I instantly knew what I wanted to make this song about the second I heard this beat. Seven did a great fuckin’ job on the beat too. I must admit though, I feel like I could of done a better job with my lyrics but I really do like the track and so do all our homies who were there when we made the song. The song is about what Shaggy and myself would do if we died and came back as phantoms. My favorite thing about the beat is that it has this one monstrous bass drop in it that repeats itself throughout the song and if you’re listening to this song on a good sound system, every time that bass drop hits, it bounces your entire car up off the ground.
The beat is a dope track by Seven who’s better known as the producer for Tech N9ne. Song 1 is the title track called to the album called “Phantom”. It’s truly rare and unusual indeed, muthafuckas. It actually gives the whole album a feel and a sound unlike anything we’ve ever released before. It just goes on and on with crazy shit, that we spent hours digging up, locating and placing between all the songs.
Well, me and Shaggy received so many complements about the 5 ICP songs on this rare CD during the meet and greets on The Marvelous Missing Link Tour that we decided to hook “The Phantom” up even more! We took off all the songs that made it a sampler, and in place of them we added even more brand new, never heard before ICP songs to make it an ultra rare, super underground, full length ICP album! Thus this new version is now called “The Phantom – X-tra Spooky Edition! And it’s now all ICP songs, a full album’s worth, and it will NOT be sold in record stores anywhere! You can ONLY get this super rare, collectors item ICP album at or on any of the 6 stops of the “RassleRap Charity Festival Tour” or the Big Ballas X-Mas Party.įirst off, one of the things that make this album so unique and ultra cool is the tons and tons of crazy and outrageous skits and extra fill in material that we put between each song. There was also a brand new song from the latest release or from the upcoming release of each every artist on Psychopathic Records which made this rare CD also a sampler. What made it so cool was the 5 ICP songs had never been heard before. It was more like a super rare, ICP 5 song EP, and the rest of it was kind of a Psychopathic Records sampler. Only then it wasn’t a full length ICP album. We gave a copy away to everybody that attended the ICP seminar for free. That version was just called “The Phantom”. It’s called “The Phantom – X-tra Spooky Edition!” You see, a version of this ultra rare release first surfaced from the underground at the 2015 Gathering of the Juggalos. Violent J here to tell y’all about a special ICP album that’s way, way underground.
