While looking up the New York 70's No-wave band 'Mars' I stumbled upon a hip-hop artist who calls himself Mars. Did some research, found his history and the reason he has ever gotten media exposure is due to his listeners going out and committing mass murders. His voice is shit, and he somehow makes worse 'horrorcore' than ICP. I find all of this humorous.
From wikipedia:
"Mars (Born Mario Delgado in 1980) is an American rapper from the San Francisco Bay Area.
In 2005, he received national attention when fan Jeff Weise frequented Mars’ website and forum before killing nine people."
"In 2009, Mars received attention when it was learned that Mars’ music was an influence on the music of horrorcore fan Richard Sam McCroskey, who allegedly killed four people. McCroskey’s MySpace page listed Mars as his favorite rapper, and Mars told law enforcement he had seen and signed autographs for McCroskey at various events before the murders.From these events, he has been interviewed by several TV news outlets around the United States including CBS News, Fox News, ABC News, and CNN.
Mars releases his music on Mad Insanity Records, including his most recent School House Glock: Extra Credit (2009, EP)"
