Jack Jeckel Lyrics

[Violent J]
Boom shaka boom shaka (Hahaha)
Boom shaka boom shaka (Hahaha)

[Shaggy 2 Dope]
Lllladies and gentlemen. come here
Meet your greed, your keeper of wickedry
The path to Shangri-La, ha ha ha
Is misled by he, misled by you
He is of your negativity, he is of your hate, ha
Meet the other half of the juggling duo (Who)
That is your soul, (What) the amazing Jack Jeckel (Jeckel!)

[Hook (x4):]
Jack throw another Jake catch one more
They'll try and catch all thats in store for
You. (How many souls will fall from the sky?)
For you. (How many souls burned wondering why?)

Genius Annotation

In the concept of the Dark Carnival, both brothers juggle pulsating blood covered balls, each one representing the mortal lives of the souls witnessing. For every sin committed, another ball gets added. If a soul witnesses Jake drop a ball, he will be damned to Hell forever. If Jake succeeds the act, however, the souls will be led to Shangri-La, and thus, eternal peace.
9 tracks after the first Jeckel-related track, we meet “The Sinister Brother,” Jack Jeckel. Much like Jake, that moniker isn’t just for show; Jack represents the bad of one’s soul. Shaggy 2 Dope describes Jack as “Your keeper of wickedry,” being “of your negativity, of your hate”, and stating “The path to Shangri-La is misled by he.” Jack is constantly tossing curve balls in order to throw Jake off, and as described earlier, if Jake messes up and drops even one ball, it’s down to the fiery pits for you!

What did Insane Clown Posse say about "Jack Jeckel"?
Genius Answer

His evil influence flows from the city streets like red molten ooze, filling every alley and gutter. There are those who are burnt by it, like the charred remains of a napalm strike. He moves in silence, yet with his heat comes ear-shattering screams as the masses are scorched in his choking smoke of corruption. His fire consumes like a lethal injection flowing through the veins of a dying convict. Hosts of small red ants crawl in the wake of his presence, biting and stinging flesh. His holocaust fills the woods of hope and prosperity like a wave of hungry piranhas on a newborn lamb. He goes by many names, but for now let it be spoken like the force of a fireball bursting into a crowd. He’s Jack, pure and simple… Jack Jeckel.
