''Forgotten Freshness Volumes 1 & 2'' is a rarities album by American hip hop group Insane Clown Posse. Released in 1998, it features unreleased and lost tracks that are harder to find elsewhere. It also contains some tracks that were remixed or changed. Before this album's release the ICP released ''Forgotten Freshness'' in 1995, but because of sample-clearing problems it was only released in the Detroit area and the mid-west. Many of the tracks on that album appeared again on these albums for wider distribution purposes. Three tracks, "Life at a Risk", "Ghetto Zone", and "Ask You Somethin'" do not appear on this album, despite appearing on the original Forgotten Freshness. It is the 2nd installment in the group's "Forgotten Freshness album series", their 3rd compilation album and their 11th overall release. ==Music and lyrics== ''Forgotten Freshness Volumes 1 & 2'' features several scrapped songs intended for some of the group's previous albums. The songs "Fat Sweaty Betty," "Willy Bubba," and "I Didn't Mean To Kill 'Em" were all intended to be released on ''Riddle Box''.〔Insane Clown Posse (1998). ''Forgotten Freshness Volumes 1 & 2''.
