In the days of yester-decade, there was only a handful of places for Juggalos and Juggalettes to enjoy music. Juggalos could listen to the latest ICP CD in their car or at home, and Juggalettes could hear ICP on the same format through a boombox while tanning poolside.

Alternatively, if Juggalos and Juggalettes were in the right place at the right time, they could catch an ICP tune on the radio during their commute or just while out on the town. Finally, Juggalos and Juggalettes could enjoy each other’s company at a live ICP concert, and probably count on getting their fair share of Faygo showers together there!

All of those music enjoyment avenues are still viable, even though a few have fallen by the wayside (radio, CDs). In the year 2012, there are a million different ways to experience the music of Insane Clown Posse, the most inventive of which is through Insane Clown Posse’s YouTube channel. But more on that later.

I mentioned earlier that CDs and Radio are no longer the foremost avenues of music discovery. That’s because they’ve been taken over by other mediums that are more convenient to Juggalos and Juggalettes alike.

All Juggalos and Juggalettes with an internet connected device (computer, iphone, etc.) can now enjoy Insane Clown Posse’s music through channels like music streaming services (Spotify, Rdio, Grooveshark, Pandora), through the band’s website (insaneclownposse.com), or even purchase the band’s songs through the iTunes store. But none of those are as appealing as the Insane Clown Posse YouTube channel.

A website, Insane Clown Posse’s YouTube channel is always accessible to Juggalos and Juggalettes as long as they are connected to the Internet. That’s standard at this day in age. What Insane Clown Posse’s YouTube channel does better than the rest of the above mentioned avenues is incorporate video and audio into one central hub. Insane Clown Posse’s YouTube channel is not just meant for music videos, but audio tracks as well.

Once Juggalettes and Juggalos become adept at using Insane Clown Posse’s YouTube channel, they can create playlists of their favorite Insane Clown Posse YouTube material and have is stream continuously through their device of their choice.

Considering how much rare Insane Clown Posse YouTube material there is, that could be a pretty epic playlist! Just in case Juggalettes and Juggalos don’t have the time to create their own Insane Clown Posse YouTube playlist, the ICP channel that exists right now has a few of their own up for Juggalo / Juggalette listening pleasure. They include: Music Videos, Spots for Psychopathic Records, ICP / Psychopathic Records, Psychopathic Radio Archive, and JCW Wrestling.

So if you think about it, Juggalettes and Juggalos, if using the Insane Clown Posse YouTube channel correctly, could have their playlist spliced in with some JCW Wrestling footage as well!

ICP Gear for Juggalettes

Most fans of hip hop are male. An even larger percentage of the horror rap fan base is male. That leads us to the grand conclusion that almost all of Insane Clown Posse fans are also male. However, that conclusion is incorrect.
Anyone who’s ever been to an ICP concert or the Gathering of the Juggalos can tell you that Juggalettes (female Juggalos) abound. Juggalettes can be seen donning whatever ICP gear they can get their hands on, and Juggalettes never stop short of anything their male counterparts will do to display their ICP fandom.

For instance, Juggalettes paint their faces, shower in Faygo, and even oil-wrestle each other in competition at every Gathering of the Juggalos. Some Juggalettes are even attractive enough to compete in the annual Juggalette beauty pageant that takes place at GOTJ every year.

Now that that myth has been debunked, let’s tackle the more important question at hand: With all the extra large and baggy ICP gear available for Juggalos to sport in pride of their favorite band, what are Juggalettes supposed to wear to do the same? Fear not. Once visit to hatchetgear.com will have any fashionable Juggalette’s mind at ease.

First, feast your eyes upon the Insane Clown Posse shirt selection. Not all Insane Clown Posse shirts are the same loose, baggy style you see Juggalos flaunting. Nor are all Insane Clown Posse shirts of the novelty type – their only purpose to catch attention of passersby. (Which Insane Clown Posse shirts do you prefer – novelty or traditional?)

Hatchetgear.com has a Girl’s Apparel section, the first items in which are Insane Clown Posse shirts for women. In just one more demonstration of Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope’s marketing genius when it comes to ICP gear, every Insane Clown Posse shirt in this store is cross-promoting an album. For the rebellious Juggalettes that enjoy brazenly displaying their renegade spirit, there is an Insane Clown Posse shirt that proudly boasts the band to be “the most hated band in the world.” 

Furthermore, if plain Insane Clown Posse shirts aren’t enough to display your sense of belonging in the Juggalette clan, then the Insane Clown Posse shirt displaying the Juggalo flag (more ICP gear marketing) might do it for you.

The most outrageous piece of ICP gear for women that is not an Insane Clown Posse shirt is undoubtedly the ICP gear thong. How many other bands manufacture merchandise as unique and pointed as this example of ICP gear? Of course not all of the Insane Clown Posse shirts will blow you away, but it’s moves like this one with the ICP gear thong that really show Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope’s dedication to their fan base.
