Follow the Leader is the third album by Nu Metal band Korn and was released on August 18, 1998. Unlike their first two albums, Follow the Leader is not produced by Ross Robinson and instead was produced by Steve Thompson and Toby Wright. While their first two albums help set up the groundwork for nu metal, Follow the Leader is credited with popularizing it and bringing it to the mainstream.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The album peaked at number 1 on the Billboard 200 and has gain sales of over 7 million copies in the US alone and a total of over 14 million copies sold worldwide, making it Korn's most commercial successful album. Critical reception to the album was generally positive and the album has since been listed in the musical reference book "1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die". The music video for the track "Freak on a Leash" had won the Band Best Rock Video and Best Editing from the 1999 MTV Video Music Award (VMA) ceremony, where it was nominated for a total of 9 awards, including Best Video. The video also won them the Grammy for Best Short Form Video. The videos for "Freak on a Leash" and "Got the Life" were among the first music videos to be retired from Total Request Live.

Music Video Overshadowing: "Freak on a Leash". Song: Jonathan Davis is frequently worried and suffering (because of how the music industry treats him). Video: In an animated section directed by Todd MacFarlane, the girl from the album's cover is nearly shot. Then comes literal Bullet Time as the bullet breaks the fourth wall out of the artwork and starts blasting everything before meeting the band, who "returns it to sender".

Too Dumb to Live

comment
Too Dumb to Live: The album art, made by Todd MacFarlane and his cohorts, depicts a girl hopscotching on a cliff. And worse, there's a line of children waiting to do it as well - fitting both the album title, and the old saying "if everyone jumped off a cliff, would you do it too?"

Fun with Acronyms: "B.B.K." stands for "big black cock", though not as in the usual sense - it's Jonathan Davis' nickname for Jack and Coke.

Hidden Track: A weird case, in that to avoid a 13 song tracklist, the CD opens with 12 five second silent tracks (a literal minute of silence!) before "It's On!" actually starts.
