Robert Bruce (born August 9, 1970) is an American retired rapper and professional wrestler who would go on to become a Don[clarification needed] for Psychopathic Records.
He is the older brother of Violent J of the Insane Clown Posse, and has been featured on many of their releases, both directly and indirectly, since his debut on their 1992 album Carnival of Carnage.
One day as a kid, Rob and his brother caught a butterfly, and both were fascinated by the vibrant colors and overall peacefulness of the creature.
After a rival gang attacked his mother's house, Joe fled to Bonnie Doone, North Carolina, a trailer park town just outside Fort Bragg.
Upon hearing the music, Rob recommended that the group hire his friend and record store owner Alex Abbiss as their manager.
"[8] Examples of quests include playing old childhood games, finding an old friend, trespassing, petty theft, and stealing a roommate's clothing while they are in the shower.
The storyline revolves around Insane Clown Posse's comic book series The Pendulum, as well as ideas from the Dark Carnival.
Released on February 16, 2007, the game pits 2-6 players against each other as they journey "through Detroit, the Nethervoid, and the Dark Carnival ... on an epic Quest to cross The Bridge to Shangri-La.
"[11][12] The game features 36 playable characters, all based on Psychopathic Records artists and album, and ends in one of ten different scenarios.
On September 24, 2012, it was announced that Rob Bruce returned to Psychopathic Records and reclaimed his position as a Don and co-owner of the label.
He went on to do several dates in 2002 with Insane Clown Posse on their "Diamonds Raining Pre Tour", with original interchangeable hype-men Tom Dub and PsychoPatrick.
In 2003, Jumpsteady called on long-time friend and Gathering of the Juggalos co-worker Delusional to become his hype-man and their first shows took place on Esham's "Acid Rain" tour.
He released his debut full-length album Master of the Flying Guillotine on February 22, 2005, which featured his brother Violent J, brother-in-law Myzery, and hype-man Delusional.
He later announced that he would be retiring from rapping and resigned as vice president of Psychopathic Records to pursue a lifelong personal dream of becoming a paramedic.
Die-hard juggalos have expressed during his absence from Psychopathic that they are very interested and extremely excited to hear what's in store for Jumpsteady's music career.
"[15] The group held only one live performance, which occurred at the gold record certification party for Insane Clown Posse's Riddle Box.
He was later featured on Juggalo Championship Wrestling Volume 2, released in 2001, for his match with Insane Clown Posse against the Rainbow Coalition.
Bruce appears as Evil Dead, a playable character in Eidos Interactive's video game Backyard Wrestling: Don't Try This at Home.
