Psychopathic Rydas Information
Members: Lil' Shank (Jamie Madrox), Foe Foe (Monoxide Child), Bullet (Violent J), Full Clip (Shaggy 2 Dope), Cell Block (Blaze Ya Dead Homie), Yung Dirt (Boondox The Skarcrow) Former Members: Sawed Off (Anybody Killa), Twin Gats (Myzery) and Converse (Esham) The original line up of Psychopathic Rydas included Violent J, Shaggy 2 Dope, Jamie Madrox, Blaze Ya Dead Homie, and another member named Twin Gats or better known as Myzery. Myzery was a good homie from the past for ICP, they all even got arrested at a Waffle House before a concert. Myzery was later dropped from Psychopathic Records, so Psychopathic Rydas quickly lost Twin Gats, the sixth member (sounds a lot like the Dark Lotus story). The original line up featuring Twin Gats released the infamous bootleg CD entitled "Dumpin'" that could only be recieved if you discovered the hidden phone number featured in the "Amazing Jeckel Brothers" CD. The Psychopathic Rydas even have their own logo, they do not use the Hatchetman that Juggalos recognize as the Psychopathic Records symbol, instead Shaggy 2 Dope designed a different logo called the Gatman. If you would like to see the Gatman, then Click Here . The Gatman is the logo for Joe and Joey Records (the label that the Rydas represent). The reason for the creation of Joe and Joey Records was a result of the fact that the Rydas were stealing other artists' beats and rapping over them. ICP decided that if a lawsuit were to break out they can simply drop Joe and Joey Records from the label and avoid a lawsuit from other artists. After losing Twin Gats, the Psychopathic Rydas released another CD in 2001 entitled "Ryden Dirtay". This CD featured the old Rydas line up except that Twin Gats was gone, but this CD had many more bumpers than the old CD, songs like "Boom!" and "Bye Bye" became instant classics that all Juggalos enjoyed. In 2002 when Anybody Killa was signed to Psychopathic Records, he became part of the Psychopathic Rydas line up, sporting the name of Sawed Off. Esham also became a member of The Psychopathic Rydas sporting the name Converse. This new line up of Foe Foe, Lil' Shank, Bullet, Cell Block, Full Clip, Sawed Off, and Converse released one CD entitled "Check Your Shit In Bitch". This CD featured great songs that continue to use stolent beats: for example the track entitled "Murder Fo Hire" is using the beat to Nelly's "Air Force One's". In 2004, Psychopathic Rydas released and EP simply entitled "2004 Singles". It featured a mere 4 track playlist, and was given away to everyone at attendance of the 2004 Gathering of the Juggalos. After this release the Rydas seemed to vanish off the face of the earth, no one had heard anything about them. Not until 2006 when rumors of a new Rydas album emerged all over the internet. The album was to be entitled "Duk Da Fuk Down" and the first single off the album was titled the same. Upon viewing the video, everyone was shocked to witness that a new member had been added to the group, Yung Dirt, but everyone knows him better as Boondox the Skarcrow. The album was released at the 2007 Gathering of the Juggalos and was received quite well by the Juggalo community. |
