Synopsis

Album Description

ICP have been putting out successful albums and attracting new fans for over 15 years, over the course of their Joker's Card saga, numerous EPs and side projects, and well-received solo efforts from each member. The Shining isn't just the newest Insane Clown effort; it's a new and revealing chapter in their legacy. It focuses on the fascinating character of Violent J: both as a member of ICP's ruthless, relentless Dark Carnival, and ad the all-too-human writer/rapper behind the paint, Joe Bruce.

CD Reviews

Worth the Money, but nothing special

Kid MacLean | Canton, OH | 05/07/2009

(3 out of 5 stars)

"I only gave the CD 3 stars because he forces some stale lyrics just to get a rhyme in a lot of the songs. Besides that, this is a good album, nothing amazing. If you're a juggalo, you'll like it, their are songs that make the album worth it.

Fresh songs: Wake Up (Lyrically this song sucks, but the chorus is excellent), Fight Club, Get Out the Way, I Get Mad, Faster, Home Invasion, Let It Go(In my opinion, this is the best song on this album)

Straight Staleness: When I Rap; for some reason, I hate this song"

HHEERREE'S J

"if you listened to the version J gave away at the 08 Gathering you ain't heard The Shining. This version has all the tracks mixed and mastered plus 4 new songs that werent available on the gathering version but there are some songs removed as well my personal ones that should have been removed (When I Rap, Candy Land & Jealousy) but they took off a couple of my favs (The Gatekeeper & Ice Cold) but the 4 new songs make up for it (14 Year Old, Faster, Home Invasion & ??? also known as Freeway Kller)

All in all if your a Juggalo go buy this album its worth the money. It fits in great with all the other solo efforts from ICP & Twiztid"

Violent J's second solo.

S. Moran | Twin Citties, MN USA | 08/03/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The Shinning is Violent J's second solo, first Wizard of the Hood. This is a very good album with great songs like, Faster, Jealousy, and Pyromaniac. It was said on [...] that J drank tea befor each studio session and also stopped smokeing three months before and durring the project. All I have to say is, "Shows". His voice is so good I did not believe it was Violent J. There are also some special guests on the album Psycopathic home-boy Esham and Violent J's Insane Clown Posse group mate Shaggy 2-Dope. This album is a must for any Psycopathic fan."
