Shaggy 2 Dope is NOT a satanist

I don't know who tagged it as such, but I know that he is not a Satanist. ICP is not about Satan. yeah and they worship god and they're good people they support cancer and breast cancer. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tghiphop10 (talk • contribs) 23:36, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ethnic Background

Besides the worthless messages mentioned above, does anybody have anymore background, such as his ethnicity? Violent J is white, and perhaps Shaggy is too, however I am wondering if he is light-skinned African American or is he half n' half? Just wondering. Also, if anybody can further elaborate on him in the article, it would be much appreciated.Jerre 05:07, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, I do not have an online reference to back this up, but I believe Shaggy is part Native American. There was a comment made by Violent J, I believe in his book, about them not celebrating Thanksgiving because of this. If I can find a reference to this, I'll add it under this comment. If anyone else can find a reference, that would be great as well. 74.243.165.226 20:18, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I know last year on ICP's website there was a photo in the "Photo of the Week" (or w/e it's called) section of Shaggy around the age of 15, and it stated that he was Native American. I believe it even said what tribe. I can't find the picture though, so unfortunatly I can't source this.Juggalobrink 20:53, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I remember the Thanksgiving story from the book and also the picture. I believe he is part Native-American. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Haroldandkumar (talk • contribs) 05:42, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No duh. Were refering to ETHNICITY, not skin color. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Juggalobrink (talk • contribs) 22:06, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Either way, he is a white male, according to his criminal record. Ellomate (talk) 18:52, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Joseph Utsler is Cherokee. He talked about it on the WFKO Tuesday night, as well as Joseph Bruce writing it in his book. I'll add it in this page later, because I plan to do major work on it based on Bruce's autobiography.Juggalobrink (talk) 23:00, 21 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Utsler has African-American ancestry!! He is predominantly white, with both Cherokee and Black heritage. Looking at his younger brother, you just KNOW FOR A SURE FACT that there's black ancestry. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.30.234.220 (talk) 06:09, 21 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Shaggy a JCW World Champ?

Can anyone confirm this? Some guy keeps adding it. But it's the same guy who says J does cartwheels and Shaggy does Moonsaults, so he's unreliable. Anyone know of Shaggy being champ?Juggalobrink (talk) 03:02, 7 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I found a source. Juggalobrink (talk) 23:25, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
