Jedi Mind Tricks – Monolith

Over the past 12+ years, the name Jedi Mind Tricks has become synonymous with raw, gritty underground hip-hop. With November 11th's 6th studio release, "A History of Violence," Vinnie Paz, beat maestro Stoupe and long estranged "partner in rhyme" Jus Allah reunite, rekindling the spirit of their last collaborative full length, 1998's renowned classic "Violent By Design." With the first single, "Monolith," Stoupe laces sultry vocals upon a head-nodding drum line, setting the backdrop for Vinnie's politically and socially incendiary lyrical delivery (political sentiment also served to inspire the album title and accompanying cover imagery).

I am still noddin' my heads to this fantastic song so yes, this one deserves a thumbs up! Although its been over three months since it was given a 'Thumbs Up' here at MusicRemedy. This is a somewhat 'older' joint but still very tight. A lot of people have given their thumbs up and so should you. Click on the 'play'-button and enjoy!

I give it 3 of 5 stars.
