Las Vegas, Nevada emcee Ouija Macc kicking off the Hallowicked season with his 8th LP. Breaking out 8 years ago after the Insane Clown Posse signed him to Psychopathic Records shortly after putting out his debut EP Trashfire independently, Ouija has since proven himself as the hatchet’s biggest solo act dropping his last 7 full-lengths, 2 greatest hits compilations, 8 mixtapes & 5 EPs all in the span of nearly 8 years. He even started his own label Chapter 17 Records, with Darby O’Trill now being the only artist other than Ouija & teamed up with each other for the excellent collab effort Anemoia building up Darcc Planet to become the darccest material of his career last summer. 3 months after Psycho Babbel though, we entered the Temple of Ash & Chlorine proved that he’ll always be a scrub no matter how clean he gets. Sunken Church however looks to conclude the story that Darcc Planet began 14 months ago fresh off 3-time JCW World Juggalo Tag Team Champions The Brothers of Funstruction taking the titles back to Juggalo Championship Wrestling (JCW) from YNDP & simultaneously ending their reign GCW World Tag Team Champions at the Game Changer Wrestling (GCW) event Evil Deeds a couple weeks ago.
Devereaux & Brian Kuma both produced the occult trap intro “Hatchet Homicide” talking about being allergic to the sun & not trusting anybody whereas “Fungalo” vividly describes fungus growing from within the Sunken Church asking if it could be shrooms. “Left Eye” welcomes one & all to the church hidden below the Earth flexing that he’s chilling with the late TLC member of the same name by the waterfall while the lead single “Killionaire” talks about piling up bodies.
“Flume” speaks of walking up in the room off the smoke killing a homophobe out in Texas & putting the body in his Lexus while “Decomposing” wickedly paints images of himself amongst the undead. “Chinchilla” featuring the shortest reigning JCW World Juggalo Heavyweight Champion Shaggy 2 Dope & the JCW Commissioner Violent J of ICP finally makes up for the Clowns’ verse on “Diamonds” off Gutterwater while the 3rd single “Rain Dance” talks about lighting a candle at the Temple of Ash.
Meanwhile on “Gremlord”, we have Ouija morbidly boasting that he’s the lord of all gremlins & one forgetting to breathe after floating down while “Eastside Ritual” works in some heavy bells talking about the cult of the moon & the hatchet never sleeping. The 2nd single “Andy Milanakis” claps back at the oldheads calling him & his music obnoxious while “Decension” talks about drowning to death.
“Break da Seal” speaks of being guided by the voices the concoction of a spell & acknowledging that many wicked ones have never made it out of Hell’s Pit while the final single “Tunguska” that we got last weekend talks about the end being near, giving s middle finger to the world since most are too oblivious to recognize that the world we live in being hellafied & cooked.
The song “Night of the Stanky Heads” begins the final moments of this 14-month long saga with a spiritual successor to the “Night of…” series that the Insane Clown Posse has become known for since Carnival of Carnage & once “Mudrealm Depths” talks about being creating a literal bloody mess whenever da mane is summoned, “Goner” finishes with an emo rap closer feeling stuck in his ways again & all of his walls caving in.
Announced near the end of his headlining set at the Gathering of Legends or the 25th annual Gathering of the Juggalos last month, these past 5 albums that Ouija Macc has put out has in the past year have marked a new era beyond the Elements series that Trashfire began & Stalewind ended by doing the same thing with Darcc Planet & Sunken Church. A new dawn has risen entirely from the depths tying in everything that we’ve heard throughout Darcc Planet, Psycho Babbel, Temple of Ash & Chlorine in a masterfully wicced fashion.
