Insane Clown Posse’s Violent J Reveals Heart Failure Diagnosis, Band Announces Farewell Run

Insane Clown Posse shared some sad news at their latest Gathering of the Juggalos.

According to the band, Violent J has been dealing with heart failure. In lieu of the news, ICP will hit the road on a farewell tour in 2022. Aside from the tour, the duo does promise one-off shows, too.

“For those of you that haven’t been to my house, the studio is probably 40 yards from my front door. I noticed walking out to the studio every day, by the time I got to the f***ing studio, I was winded,” Violent J said. “Then when I’d walk up to my mailbox, I’d be like, ‘Oh f***, I’ve got to take a break.’ What the f***’s the problem?”

“We went to the hospital to see what’s going on. They did an ultrasound. The lady who was looking at my heart, we could tell she was tripping about something, but she wasn’t a doctor. The doctors were all tied up upstairs in the hospital, understandably. She told me, ‘They want you to go straight home, get in bed and they’ll call you first thing in the morning.’”

He added, “They called before the birds even woke up and f***ing told me to go to the hospital. They took me in the back and s***, and basically they just came out and told me I have heart failure. That scared the s*** out of me.”
