[[Boondox]] is a rapper from Covington, Georgia whose stage persona is a [[Scary Scarecrows|Scary Scarecrow]]. His music generally mixes [[Horrorcore]], [[Country Rap|country]] and [[Rap Rock|rock]]. Much of his lyrics derive from [[Deep South]] fears, à la ''[[The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (Film)|The Texas Chainsaw Massacre]]'' or ''[[House of 1000 Corpses (Film)|House of 1000 Corpses]]''. He's also released some [[Gangsta Rap]] tracks under the names "Turn Coat Dirty" and "[[Psychopathic Rydas (Music)|Yung Dirt]]".
 
Boondox was the only Southern artist signed to [[Psychopathic Records]], but left the label in 2012, because he found it difficult to work in Detroit, where Psychopathic and labelheadslabel heads [[Insane Clown Posse (Music)|Insane Clown Posse]] are located, being that his friends and family are in Georgia.

{{creatortropes}}
=== Boondox provides examples of the following tropes: ===
 
* [[Big Screwed-Up Family]]: His song "Family Tree" which is about his real life family.
* [[Country Rap]]
* [[Deal Withwith the Devil]]: Used for effect in Cold Day In Hell:
{{quote| I soul my soul for a .45<br />
a black cowboy hat and a switchblade knife<br />
I'm gonna burn like a sinner if they take my life<br />
but it'll be a cold day in hell before they take my pride... }}
* [[Deep South]]: Boondox' music is heavily based around these themes; particularly in the singles from his first two albums, "They Pray With Snakes" (from ''The Harvest''), which is about backward hillbilly snake charmers, and "Inbred Evil" (from ''Krimson Creek''), which is about a serial killer who is the evil product of incest, having murdered his parents, and kills anyone who comes around the woods where he resides. Mockery of hillbillies and rednecks is a reoccurring theme in Psychopathic lyrics.
Line 26 ⟶ 25:
* [[Horrorcore]]
* [[Ironic Nursery Tune]]: Seven gives us this little gem:
{{quote| A tisket, a tasket<br />
The scarecrow's out his casket<br />
Turn out the lights and lock the door<br />
Prayin' that he passes }}
* [[Juggalo]]
* [[Knife Nut]]: "Love of My Knife" takes this to very very unhealthy levels.
* [[Nice Hat]]
* [[Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot]]: He's a [[Nightmare Fuel|scary]] [[Monster Clown|monster clown]] [[Scary Scarecrows|scarecrow]] [[Country Rap|country rapper]].
* [[Reclusive Artist]]: To the point that a documentery made about him implies that he lives in a worn down old shed in the middle of nowhere.
* [[Scary Scarecrows]]: His image is heavily based around this as well.
