Jedi Mind Tricks
Jedi Mind Tricks is a hip hop duo consisting of DJ Stoupe the Enemy of Mankind and Vinnie Paz.
DJ Stoupe is the music while Vinnie Paz is the voice.A rapper named Jus Allah has been a part of the group on and off over the years.
Vinnie Paz's rough and rugged delivery combined with Stoupe's unique compositional blend is what gives JMT their signature sound. Ever since being with
Babygrande
Records you can hear a real improvement in the musical composition of the group. Once Stoupe got his hands on some real studio sounds he was really able to create some appealing beats that please the ear. Improving his composition with samples of orchestrations and classical pieces turning them into the quintessential essence of hip hop sound. Vinnie Paz's lyrical content extends from the mythological to the murderously metaphorical. His hard delivery yet intellectually astute flow is hip hop in one of its rawest froms.
Visions of Ghandi is their first album with Babygrande Records and was released in 2003. From this record on their you can hear a real advancement in musical and lyrical capabilities. Thus increasing their success.
Jus Allah has reunited with JMT and will be working with them in the future. Considering their on again off again history how long do you think it will last?
He was supposed to be featured on A History of Violence but I'm not sure if he makes an appearance on the album...Most recent news is that they have left Babygrande Records due to money issues with the owner and have now formed a label called Enemy Soil. Whether or not they will be able to continue on the path that they've blazed thus far remains to be seen.
