Project Born - History

History

Project Born was formed in 1989 by Half Pint Capone, Frank Nitty, and Lil Polk and signed to Psychopathic Records in 1994 on the strength of a demo that they had given to Insane Clown Posse, who believed that they would become "the next Dayton Family".

Psychopathic had originally intended to release the demo as it had been recorded under the title of Forever In The Jects in 1994, but Project Born lost the tape, resulting in the group having to release different material under the title of Born Dead, which was released in 1995, and featured appearances by Insane Clown Posse and Esham. However, the label was not as impressed by the new material as they had been by the original demo. Unfortunately, Born Dead was an unsuccessful EP according to Violent J's book, so the group parted ways with the label in 1996. In 2011, Lil Polk parted ways with Project Born in order to pursue a career as a solo artist and as a music producer under the moniker of Polk Frost and started his very own record label, 423 Music Group Incorporated.

In 2000, 2007, 2009, 2011, and 2012, Project Born performed at the Gathering of the Juggalos.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    The history of American politics is littered with bodies of people who took so pure a position that they had no clout at all.
    Ben C. Bradlee (b. 1921)

    The custard is setting; meanwhile
    I not only have my own history to worry about
    But am forced to fret over insufficient details related to large
    Unfinished concepts that can never bring themselves to the point
    Of being, with or without my help, if any were forthcoming.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    We are told that men protect us; that they are generous, even chivalric in their protection. Gentlemen, if your protectors were women, and they took all your property and your children, and paid you half as much for your work, though as well or better done than your own, would you think much of the chivalry which permitted you to sit in street-cars and picked up your pocket- handkerchief?
    Mary B. Clay, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 4, ch. 3, by Susan B. Anthony and Ida Husted Harper (1902)
