Whaddup reader! It's been awhile since I've felt like posting anything here, but you can thank Philadelphia's underground stalwarts Jedi Mind Tricks for rilin' me up with their new joint, the Stoupe-less yet still-perfectly-JMT-sounding Violence Begets Violence. On their latest effort, perpetually-constipated-sounding Vinnie Paz and multi-syllabic verbal champion Jus Allah bring back the hardness that's been missing from rap these past few years; honestly, it took me two days just to get past the insanity that is today's featured track, "Burning The Mirror." It was really tough deciding who deserved the spotlight -- both come correct on this shit! In the end though, Jus wins out, as I respect his return-to-form after years of absence as opposed to Paz, who is pretty reliable in the consistency department. With Vin, you know what to expect; Islamic references, homophobia, dead dad references, and angry threats. Jus however, is always on some other shit, be it professing his love for criminal activity, conjuring images of bloody murder scenes, or.. okay, I guess that's equally predictable. But as I've said before, you don't like it? Write your own damn blog ;) P.S. This isn't the only ill verse from Jus on this album... go cop that shit; I'm tellin you son, it's fire!
Jus Allah - "Burning The Mirror" (verse) by BlazeStar_VOD
My babysitter hung herself
I was way too young to help
It's no way I could've lifted her and strung the belt
Wish she could've gave me somethin else, cruel summer
But I'm always elated to meet the newcomers
I like to stare at models, to compare brothels
Puttin air in bottles, sharin pot and Aristotle
With the baddest dime inhalin traffic line
And we don't talk about pasttimes and astral signs
I'm fearless, there's an eeriness to my appearance
I'm experienced in severeness
I'm embellished in devilishness
I'm a detriment to health and wellness
I'm everything selfish and felonous
I'm only aware of unfairness
Islam and Arabic
Nuclear fission bombs and terrorists
More torturers, live with no order
I live in close quarters..
Bodies everywhere; it's an episode of Hoarders!
