Twiztid has brought back Ashtrays & Action Figures. This is a segment from Episode 4 where the demented duo interview Prozak who just recently signed with Strange Music. Check back for more.
Twiztid is an American hip hop duo from Detroit, Michigan. Formed in 1997, Twiztid is composed of Jamie Spaniolo and Paul Methric, who perform under the respective personas of Jamie Madrox and Monoxide Child. Spaniolo and Methric are former members of the group House of Krazees, which disbanded in 1997.
As Reported By: uproxx
Hopsin took the rap Internet by storm on January 2 when he posted a photo on Instagram declaring that he’d been having problems with his business partner, Funk Volume co-founder and CEO Damien Ritter. The rapper had mentioned the issues had been occurring for some time, and that things had finally boiled over to a point where one of them had to leave the company. “Funk Volume is officially dead now thanks to the monster Damien Ritter,” Hopsin wrote.
I initially called bullshit on this news. Hopsin’s been known to troll in the past, and thanks to years of antics, has a cemented reputation of being Hip-Hop’s boy who cried wolf. His latest act seemed like the ultimate publicity stunt. But then Jarren Benton posted about leaving Funk Volume. So did Dizzy Wright. And Hopsin’s much anticipated punchline never arrived.
So how did we get here?
Funk Volume’s origin story is well known. Almost a decade ago, Hopsin wastrapped in the clutches of Eazy-E’s widow, Tomica Wright. Meanwhile, Dame was laid off from his corporate gig at Deloitte Consulting. His younger brother, Justin Ritter, who was rapping with Hopsin under the moniker of SwizZz, made the introduction.
And as Dame told us on our Talking Points podcast last year, he helped Hopsin while the rapper was biding his time on the shelf at Ruthless Records. Then Dame had a lawyer file the paperwork for Hop’s release when the label declined the option on his second album. Even before his official split from Ruthless, Funk Volume was already Hopsin’s brainchild, and together the two partnered up to make the vision a reality.
Former Funk Volume marketing manager Josh Rickards confirmed to TSS that it didn’t take long for problems to begin between Hopsin and Dame. Dame needed the artists to consistently make music, but Hopsin seemed to move to the beat of his own drum. By late 2011, Dame looked elsewhere for new music and began expanding Funk Volume by signing two new up-and-comers, Dizzy Wright and Jarren Benton.
Rickards believed these moves came in part to motivate Hopsin, the label’s main act and source of income, with some friendly competition. The signings also meant keeping the label moving forward even if Hopsin wasn’t working on a record.
Hopsin wasn’t immediately receptive to the idea of adding two artists to Funk Volume, but according to Rickards, as the squad toured together in 2012, they bonded and eventually became friends. Hopsin later admitted to Rickards that he liked that most of Dame’s time was focused on Dizzy Wright and Jarren Benton because it took much of the spotlight off of him.
The disagreements nonetheless continued. Funk Volume’s early days clearly showed that Dame ran the operation even though Hopsin also co-founded the outfit. Dame steered the label very similarly to the way a corporation manages its teams. He held weekly conference calls for the entire company with the intent of updating everyone on the latest moves and making sure the squad was in sync.
“Dame was never really asking Hopsin anything [on those calls],” Rickards states. “Dame just pulled triggers and made moves happen. He just told Hopsin what we were doing. That was the point of the conference calls, more so for Dame to say ‘Hey, this is what we’re doing. I want everyone to be on the same page and know about it.’ And then sometimes they would argue over like ‘Hey Hop, where you at with the music?’ And these weren’t arguments behind closed doors, there were in front of the entire company.”
Looking back, Dizzy Wright was the sole act consistently putting out music—and, to me, he quickly became the best artist on the label. His six releases were the most of the roster, and he was the only artist to drop a project at least once a year following his signing. To put things into perspective, by the time his 2012 label debut SmokeOut Conversations was released, he already completed his follow-up mixtape and worked on the blueprint of his next project.
Conversely, Hopsin hadn’t put anything out since 2010’s Raw. The label’s musical output eventually began to wane. After a busy 2012 and 2013, 2014’s lone Funk Volume release was Dizzy Wright’s State of Mind EP. Hopsin went three years between Raw and Knock Madness, and then waited another two before dropping Pound Syndrome.
SwizZz has never released a single solo project of any kind, since 2011’s Good Morning SwizZzle. “SwizZz never really liked the lifestyle of touring and the pressure that an artist has to constantly release content,” Rickards says. “SwizZz is very happy not engaging with the music. That’s why SwizZz silently bowed out, put a song out, and then silently bowed out again. He didn’t want any controversy about leaving the label.”
But at some point, Hopsin and Dame reached an impasse that couldn’t be resolved. Murky details fog the path to this point of no return. What’s clear is that the only way for Hopsin to separate himself from Dame was the leave the label. This course of action likely stemmed from the fact that Dame was the one in charge—and he wasn’t going anywhere. Hopsin had to go.
However, that doesn’t explain why Funk Volume completely folded as a brand. No official statement has been released on the matter. But Rickards believes that because Funk Volume, as a brand, is synonymous with Hopsin, it’s impossible to ever move on from him: especially in the eyes of the fans.
Rickards suspects that if Dame continued to operate under the FV name, there would be a reasonable chance that Hopsin would try to divide the fanbase between the two parties. So presumably, Dame is instead opting to eliminate Funk Volume altogether, and eventually re-brand in order to continue moving forward with the remaining artists, especially Dizzy, to form a clear distinction between the new entity and Hopsin.
Jarren and Dizzy have already hinted at moving on, by posting on social media that more music is coming with or without Funk Volume. While Dizzy’s prepping to go on tour with Logic, Jarren’s immediate plans are unknown. Our efforts to contact Hopsin and Dame were met with no response while others associated with the label have remained quiet thus far regarding their future.
Over the next few months, further details will likely surface, and more light will be shed on the situation, what led to the breakup, and the artists’ next moves. And knowing Hopsin’s tendency to never let things go, this messy saga is probably just kicking off.
Correction: Jarren Benton indicates his No Limit remark was simply a joke. The original article has been updated.

Koshir has been putting out fire on the Underground for a minute now. With a new project dropping UGW got him on the air for this dope interview.
Another huge bit of news for 2016 as reported in the HatchetHerald
I am looking forward to checking this one out, GoTJ is going to be insane this year!!
For those of you who don’t know, I have been an avid gamer since I was in elementary school and have played everything from Dungeons & Dragons to Pokemon and everything in-between. Since my childhood I have been directly involved in the creation of several games including the Pendulum Roleplaying Game (which you can still find online), Morton’s List and Quest for Shangri-La all of which I am very proud of and consider to be a part of my life’s work. To me there is no greater joy on this planet than gaming and creating games and that is why it has been my immense privilege and joy to have been able to spend the last several months creating this card game for our Juggalo family.
Before I get into what the card game is I wanted to give props to my friend Louis Simpson who I met while doing EMS and is a now a close friend of mine, because it was his idea of doing this card game in the first place. Together we have put our collective 50+ years of gaming experience to the test (along with valued insight from our nerdy crew) to devise the dopest game we could conceive. I also want to thank the motherfuckin’ Don Mega of all artists to ever grace the planet who has more than enthusiastically joined us as the 3rd member of our creative team…. none other than Tom Wood!!! His artwork, which is featured to the right (and is the box cover), speaks for itself! He is working his magic daily to bring everything to life with straight up master pieces of art that have been flipping our wigs into the stratosphere on spiraling trails of twinkling stardust and flame! When I tell you we have the best team to make this the dopest game ever…I do not boast.
OK, so what is it and how do you play? Into the Echoside is what has become commonly known in the gaming industry as a deck building game. Over the past four years or so these games have become very popular in the gaming world and are extremely fun and addictive to play. In a nutshell, everyone who is playing starts off with a small deck of cards that provide various resources. Then through the course of the game, players will obtain more and more powerful cards to add to their deck making it stronger so they can achieve the highest level of power necessary to win the game. Into the Echoside is a Juggalo version of a deck building game where players delve into the deepest levels of the Nethervoid, gain allies from some of the most notable characters in the Juggalo universe and fight creatures of infinite evil to aid them in their quest to halt the evil that threatens to consume the mortal realm!
Into the Echoside features game play and a theme that is unique to any other deck building game. It includes everything you need to play including a game board, 12-sided die, rulebook and over 220 cards that pay homage to everything Juggalos love. There are 6 different types of cards in the game (Dark Carnival, Psychopathic, Underground, Item, Fiend and Epic) each one representing a person, character, song or thing from the Juggalo world. There are such cards as Juggalos, Moon Glorious, Vera Lee, Mr. White Suit, The Riddle Box, Rude Boy, DJ Clay, Psychopathic Rydas, Whitney Peyton, Kottonmouth Kings, Boondox, Jamie Madrox, Black Eyed Children, Murder Cloak, Chuck the Chainsaw, Cartoon Nightmares, Mr. Rotten Treats and Boogie Man just to name a very very few! Players will have the opportunity to wield the powers bestowed upon them by some of their favorite artists and characters!
Each game takes less than an hour to play, is meant for 2-4 players of ages 13 and up and will retail for around $40-$45. The game will be released at the Gathering of the Juggalos this year making it available for the first time on July 20, 2016. There will also be a promo pack of 3 cards (Wizard of the Hood, Hatchetman and Inner City Posse) that you can only obtain if you purchase the game during its presale (details to come at a later date) or if you purchase the game at the Gathering itself! If you want to check out the developing website dedicated to the game you can check it out herewww.intotheechoside.com
In closing I want to add that we have been playtesting this game for a while now and I can say with extreme confidence that I am very happy with the play of the game. It is so engaging that whenever I do play test it, I quickly forget about everything else and am just trying to formulate my strategies so I can win. I am so proud of this game and it has been so rewarding to be able to be a part of a such a talented team who are creating something so uniquely entertaining for our family. This has been one of my most personally rewarding projects I have ever worked on at Psychopathic Records.
Also for those attending the Gathering this year, we will have a demonstration tent set up for those who wish to playtest Into the Echoside and learn firsthand how to play. Tournaments for the game will also be included in the Dark Carnival Games Con (DCG CON) that will be taking place toward the later part of this year to find out who will be the best of the best. This is a good time indeed for Juggalo gamers but even if you don’t consider yourself a gamer, give this one a try when you have the chance. You may just be surprised at how addictive this game can be. So until the Gathering the only question that remains is….
Do you dare delve into the deepest levels of the Nethervoid?
