    20 years of the gathering of the juggalos... On this momentous occasion, we Gather together not just to celebrate the 20th Annual Gathering of the Juggalos, but to uphold the legacy of our Juggalo Family. For two decades strong, we have converged at the height of the summer season for something so much more than the concerts, the lights, the sounds, the revelry, and the circus. There is no mistaking that the Gathering is the Greatest Show on Earth and has rightfully earned the title as the longest running independent rap festival on this or any other known planet. And while all these accolades are well-deserved and a point of pride, in our hearts we know...There is so much more to this. A greater reason and purpose. A magic that calls us together. That knowing. The spirit of the tribe. The call of the Dark Carnival. The magic mists that float by as we gaze through the trees into starry skies. We are together. And THAT is what we celebrate here, after 20 long, fresh, hilarious, incredible, tremendously karma-filled years. We call this the Soopa Gathering because we are here to celebrate the superpowers of the Juggalo Family. All of us here together and united are capable of heroics and strength beyond measure. We are Soopa. We are mighty. For we have found each other by the magic of the Carnival—standing 20 years strong on the Dirtball as we see into the eternity of Shangri-La. Finding Forever together, may the Dark Carnival empower and ignite the Hero in you ALL..

Det var prioritet#1 i min hjärna under lång, lång tid. Jag hade till och med satt ihop ett band, repat in hälften av låtarna och dessutom skrivit fem sidor på denna skriftliga del. Så sprack det… Anledningarna var många men det började med det faktum att boka lokal i Stockholm inte var det lättaste. Jag försökte förgäves att få tag i Conrad på mosebacke och Ulf på Fasching men inget svar från någon. Jag visste att jag inte ville ha den på skolan så hur skulle jag göra? Tiden rann iväg, de inrepade låtarna började kännas mer och mer passé. Det var liksom inte lika aktuellt och fräscht längre. Det var ett så kallat moment 22. Skulle jag repa in nya låtar som senare blev för gamla för att jag inte hade något konsertdatum eller skulle jag fixa konsertdatum först för att sedan se allt haverera när inte någon av de 17 personerna inblandade i konserten inte kunde… Jag satt fast. Då kom jag på idén med att göra en inspelning. En hyllning till de musiker och artister jag finner mest givande i dagens läge. Jag har arbetat extremt mycket hemma med min dator inför denna skiva men det känns enbart glädjande då en färdig produkt är mer relevant för min framtid än en konsert på Kungliga musikhögskolan… Sagt och gjort, saker och ting planerades.
