Hatchet House

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hatchet House is the new sub-label of Psychopathic Records, formed in 2007. It currently has three artists signed to it, one being DJ Clay who has done previous work with the Insane Clown Posse, Twiztid, and others, the second one being Motown Rage, who has been on tour with the Insane Clown Posse in the past, and the third & most recent one being The R.O.C., who has a side project with Blaze Ya Dead Homie called "Zodiac M-Print". Violent J of Insane Clown Posse has stated one of the purposes of the label is to make music and sign artists other than just people like themselves, and is said to possibly contain other types of music, compared to the main label. How ever the main purpose of Hatchet House is to test how the Juggalos (Psychopathic record's fanbase) like new sounds and artists, and if they do, then these artist may be signed to Psychopathic Records.

In an interview done with V-Sinizter, Tali talked about the reasons why she decided to leave Hatchet House, and the problems she had with the management about their ideas for her album.
