Bizaar is the seventh studio album by Insane Clown Posse. Released on October 31, 2000, it is the second half of the Bizzar Bizaar double album, released the same day as its companion album, Bizzar.
[edit] Release and reception
On the August 20, 1999, episode of The Howard Stern Show, ICP clashed with fellow guest Sharon Osbourne, and she bet Violent J $50,000 that ICP's next album would not sell more than 50,000 copies, and that it would be subsequently dropped from its distributor. Violent J predicted that the group's next album would sell at least 500,000 units.[4]
Bizaar and Bizzar combined to sell 400,000 units, which fell short of Violent J's prediction, but exceeded Osbourne's expectations. To this day she never paid her debt for this bet even though ICP asked that she only make a donation to charity in their name. Following the release of the albums, Insane Clown Posse left Island Records after its contract expired because the group did not want to release its sixth Joker's Card through Island Records.[5]
Both Bizaar and Bizzar received three-out-of-five-star ratings in The New Rolling Stone Album Guide, the highest rating that the magazine ever gave to any Insane Clown Posse album.[6]
"Tilt-a-Whirl" was ranked by VH1 as one of the 40 Most Awesomely Bad Metal Songs...Ever, although it is questionable whether Insane Clown Posse can be properly regarded as a heavy metal band.[7]
