Jedi Mind Tricks – Violence Begets Violence (Tracklist)

On October 25, 2011, JMT will be releasing their seventh studio album. And as most fans already know, Stoupe will not be involved. Vinnie Paz released a statement on his absence and promises to stay true to their hardcose roots.

By now you have heard that this is the first Jedi Mind Tricks album we’ve made without Stoupe handling the production. [The] bottom line is [that] at some point after making our last album, A History of Violence, Stoupe lost his passion for making Hip Hop and wanted to try new things. Through our career, we’ve always waited on him to get inspired to make a new album, but this time around we got tired of waiting out his creative drought. He tried to produce some things for this new album, but we could tell early on that his heart wasn’t in making JMT records anymore. He’s moved on as a producer to work in other genres with his side-projects, Dutch and Vespertina, and we’ve moved on with a new crop of talented producers to make the hardcore hip hop we’ve always been known for.

We’re reinvigorated and we feel like these younger, hungrier kids put a battery in our back. Our fans deserve the best music we can make. Stoupe made great albums with us, but he’s moved in a different direction as a producer, so we decided this was the best move for us to make sure we give you guys the best music we can. Regardless, Jus and I feel like we made a great record. I’ve made plenty of other albums with other producers. You guys know AOTP. You know my solo shit. Some of you even said that my solo album was the best work I’ve done to date, including all of the JMT albums. Don’t worry, that classic hardcore JMT shit is coming on October 25th. Just trust me. I’ve never let you down in 15 years. Give us the benefit of the doubt and listen with an open mind! The music business is crazy right now.

Most artists disappear after one album or one single. We’ve been fortunate to have a 15-year run, which could’ve never happened without our fans! The last thing we want to do is to try to pull the wool over your eyes, so we wanted to let you know upfront about Stoupe, but also let you know that we’re still Jedi Mind Tricks. We still are, and always will be, making hardcore shit no matter who man’s the boards.

  4. too bad, but should check out his side project(or now main project)vespertina, it dope for when your not in the mood for hip hop. its not the same, but cool to see him stretch his talent.

  7. I bet you somebody out of the Uncle Howie/Coka Nostra camp will rise to the occasion on a good portion of the production… will be interesting to see what happens.

  11. heard this album through one of my boys. its just as dope as any JMT albums, believe me… and thats coming from a fan of them since the beginning. stoupe is a legend but his sound is easily replicated by the producers on here.

  12. Hearing the preview of all the songs sounded better than I was expecting but I still won’t support anything that Vinnie Paz does.
