4.0 out of 5 stars
Good stuff, April 6, 2003
I'll run this down song by song as well1. Intro - It's just a cool intro, nothin special tho 2. Bizzar - Funky ... and kinda weird, but very enjoyable. Not the best song on the album or anything, but a good song to start with 3. Cherry Pie (I Need A Freek) - This is a remake of Too Short (and also remade by Esham). It's got a really cool beat. Nothin too special but not a track I would skip. 4. Questions - A laid back song asking questions, mostly funny things. Esham on the chorus. 5. Mr. Happy - This song is great. The concept, the music, chorus, everything, it's very well done. It kinda reminds me of Dead Body Man in a small way 6. Radio Stars - As you've read, it's a song where they try different styles of music, pretty much doing parodies of each. There's a dirty south section, a Barenaked Ladies type of rock section, and an R&B section of the song. They're actually still fun to listen to even tho they are making fun of this stuff. They then decide to just stick what they do best which is.... 7. My Axe - This song. This is like old school ICP, with J talkin about how his Axe is his buddy and everything. Some people love this song and some don't really like it, but I think it's really cool and has a good song structure. 8. If - I'll go ahead and admit this song is pretty [bad]. The beat and most of it isn't even rapping or singing or anything, just kinda talking. But some aspects of it still keep me interested and the chorus for some reason is cool. 9. Let's Go All The Way -THis is a remake of Sly Fox, which originally is a [bad] dance song, but ICP's version is great. They take the song, make it more like a rock song, and change the lyrics to fit more of the whole "Dark Carnival" meaning, and the song is about going to Shangri-La. You'll catch yourself singing this later and you can't deny how good this is. 10. Let a Killa - Hillarious song, funny commentary by J as well as the rapping by J and Shaggy. Shaggy's verse is one of his best. I like the beat and everything about this, I dunno why the other reviewer didn't care for this much 11. Juggalo Paradise - This is pretty cool as well. Unique sounds and stuff in the verse and then a rock chorus with shout outs and stuff. 12. Crystal Ball - How could you not like this song? It features Jamie and Monoxide of Twiztid...not Esham and Myzery as another reviewer said. It's very laid back and has a lot of meaning, then it breaks down into a very peaceful moment with a woman singing and everything. Anybody could like this song And then there's some bonus stuff you gotta fast forward too. One bonus thing is a short song that is an accoustic guitar with Violent J singin a song about buying bizzar, ... Basically this CD isn't set up like a Joker's card at all, but it's still very enjoyable and is great to see ICP experimenting
