Dark Lotus is one of many "supergroups" from Psychopathic Records which consists of the Insane Clown Posse, Twiztid, and Blaze Ya Dead Homie.

Originally the lineup was only Insane Clown Posse and Twiztid. The four members recorded the track Echoside, which was released as a single and featured on the Insane Clown Posse's "Amazing Jeckel Bros." album. In early 2000 they recorded I Don't Care, but as the lineup changed it was released a year later.

When Twiztid's "Freekshow" album came out, Psychopathic recording artist Blaze Ya Dead Homie and professional wrestler Vampiro appeared on the track Maniac Killa which led to much confusion. Then on Cryptic Collection 2, the track Drunken Ninja Master was said to be a Dark Lotus song and Anybody KIlla made an appearance. At one point Blaze Ya Dead Homie left Psychopathic and Esham was announced as a member. Finally, during ICP's Bizzar/Bizaar tour in 2000, an unknown rapper by the name of Marz became good friends with Violent J and Marz was asked to join the group.

The six artists went to work and recorded Tales From The Lotus Pod and released the album at the second annual Gathering of the Juggalos in 2001 and was well received by the fans. Along with the release of the CD was Dark Lotus' first concert and Marz's only live performance with the group. After the Gathering, Marz quit the group (or was kicked out depending on who you ask). With the absence of Marz the group brought in ABK to fill his place, permanently.

Dark Lotus remained six members and they re-released "Tales From The Lotus Pod" a year later with ABK rapping over all of Marz's verses. Although Marz was no longer with Psychopathic, many juggalos still felt nothing could replace the original lineup and there are still arguments over which lineup, ABK or Marz, is better, within the juggalo community.

Two years later Dark Lotus went back into the studio for a second album. The project was released in April of 2004 and it was titled "Black Rain".

After a major tour and killer performances at "Gatherings" the group was strong as ever, but on February 4, 2006, it was announced that the Anybody Killa had left Psychopathic Records. Later that day Faygoluvers.net conducted an interview with ABK and claimed he was still good friends with everybody at Psychopathic.

In the summer of 2006 at the 7th Annual Gathering of the Juggalos both the Insane Clown Posse and Twiztid claimed they would not replace ABK and there will not be a 6th member. Lotus will remain 5.

In April of 2008, Dark Lotus will release their groundbreaking THIRD album entitled "Opaque Brotherhood" on Psychopathic Records. Dark Lotus has announced touring plans for 2008 and will be playing their first show since Summer of 2007 at the Gathering Of The Juggalos. Their first appearance will be Friday May 16th in Denver Colorado, the night before "THE HATCHET ATTACKS" event at Red Rocks Ampitheatre.
