Beat Em Up , is the thirteenth studio album by American rock singer Iggy Pop . Recorded at Hit Factory Criteria studios in Miami Beach, Florida , it is the first Iggy Pop album in which the Trolls were credited. The Trolls were: Iggy Pop, Whitey Kirst , Pete Marshall , Alex Kirst and Lloyd "Mooseman" Roberts .
Background [ edit ]
'Art Collins, Pop's manager, said of the album: "I'm not saying this is another Raw Power , but if Raw Power is a true Iggy album, then this is another true Iggy album". He added there would be some "ranting on the album, some humor, some rock on it."[1] The album was self-produced.
Release [ edit ]
Beat Em Up was released on June 18, 2001, and included as an unmentioned bonus the song acknowledged as "Sterility" on tour playlists,[1] featured right after "VIP". The album was dedicated to Mooseman, who had been killed in a drive-by shooting after its recording.[2]

Pitchfork was largely dismissive of the record, proclaiming its content "third-rate bar band stuff".[7] Several critics noted the similarity of the album to the nu metal bands of the time.[9]
Aftermath [ edit ]
"Mask" was included on the compilation A Million in Prizes: The Anthology . The murder by drive-by shooting of bassist Lloyd 'Mooseman' Roberts , a former member of Ice-T 's Body Count and a member of the Trolls at the time of his death, postponed plans to tour, though "Mask" was performed to great effect on the Late Show with David Letterman .
