If I'm going to listen to embarrassing **** then I'd rather listen to something that doesn't just sound like a moderately good version of what 50 million other rappers are doing. Nobody was ever doing what ICP was doing, from Ringmaster to Hell's Pit, what ICP were doing. Ringmaster and Riddle Box might have had some serious Esham going on, but even then those albums were singular, even compared to each other.
Which would obviously mean nothing if ICP didn't connect with me so hard and Twiztid not so much, but ICP were definitely infinitely more creative than Twiztid.

No they don't. ICP are hardly cathartic. And I don't find them entertaining. They are more goofy. That's it. More goofy, stupider lyrics, less lyrical. You could say they are creative, like you could say a retards crayon scribbles are creative because there is nothing out there like it, but yet they ripped their whole career from Esham and still aren't creative enough to stay out of the Dr. Seuss single syllable rhyme scheme. Twiztid may be a bit more predictable but they are much more eloquent with what they say. They are far above mediocre. That's why they pulled the Royce Da 5'9" collab and the Proof collab while ICP didn't. And I guess they were going to have a Duran Duran collab. I think they resonate more with outside audiences than you give them credit for. Most people won't give them a chance because of their association with ICP, so typically they don't reach beyond the juggalos, but they can and have. Their focused projects have much more creativity and heart than ICP's 50 million preachy songs about killing bigots. And yeah, it's for sad sacks. So what? I'd take Twiztid's ****ty new album over ICP's ****ty double album that is just them rehashing this heaven and hell concept for the 4th time.
