More Info:

The Detroit duo of Violent Jay and Shaggy 2 Dope blend hip hop sounds, malevolently humorous lyrics and a visual assault that takes classic Alice Cooper and Kiss one step further. I.C.P. has emerged as a major concert draw throughout mid-central and mid-west regions, with their "dark carnival" beginning to seep across the nation. This release contains all the tracks previously issued on the Great Milenko album, plus 3 new tracks: "Under the Moon," "Boogie Woogie Wu" and "The Nelen Game."

Reviews:

''The Great Milenko'' is the fourth studio album released by American hip hop duo Insane Clown Posse. Released in 1997, it is the fourth entry in the group's Joker's Cards series. The album's title was inspired by the nickname of professional wrestler Boris "The Great" Malenko.

The album was recorded and initially released by the Disney-owned record label Hollywood Records. The group altered the content of its lyrics at the label's request. The album was deleted by Hollywood hours after its release, in response to criticism from the Southern Baptist Church of decisions that the church believed did not reflect Disney's family-friendly image, although Disney claimed that the album was released due to an oversight by its review board.

After the termination of the Hollywood Records contract, Insane Clown Posse signed a new contract with Island Records, which agreed to release the album as it was originally intended. "The Great Milenko" was eventually certified platinum. - Wikipedia
