Another attempt at a new member came about with professional wrestler Vampiro. It was later announced that each member "would act as a 'petal' of the lotus", and that there would be six members. It was then announced that Blaze Ya Dead Homie would become the official fifth member of Dark Lotus. In the demo version of the song "Whut?" from Insane Clown Posse's album Bizaar, Esham mentioned in the lyrics joining the supergroup however, he was replaced by Twiztid in the final version, and ultimately had not stayed in the group. The group attempted to add Esham as the official fifth member, with various interviews confirming his inclusion. After Myzery distanced himself from Psychopathic Records, the remaining four members made its official Dark Lotus debut with the single "Echoside" which was originally intended for the group's debut, but released on Insane Clown Posse's 1999 album The Amazing Jeckel Brothers instead, because the Dark Lotus album's production took longer than expected. The idea stemmed from the five artists recording the collaboration song "Meat Cleaver" on Twiztid's 1998 debut album Mostasteless. The original members were Insane Clown Posse (Shaggy 2 Dope and Violent J), Twiztid (Jamie Madrox and Monoxide Child), and Myzery.

Initially in 1998, Dark Lotus was announced as a supergroup of artists that were currently signed to Psychopathic Records.
