"A History of Violence" is far from VBD2, it's more on the level of the Army of the Pharaohs' "The Torture Papers". Two or three really good songs, with the rest of the album just extra baggage. The tracks that do stand out on this album are "Monolith", "Trail of Lies", "Seance of Shamans", and "Death Messiah". I'd recommend just buying these four tracks on mp3, or check out the other ones if you like. If you liked the Army of the Pharaohs compilations better than the original JMT albums, you'll like this album. However, most JMT fans like myself prefer fewer guest spots, good Stoupe beats, and Vinnie Paz verses. Jus Allah is alright on this one, but it's not his best effort. I give it a 70%, or a 3 out of 5.

I have to admit I was slightly dissapointed by this album. Especilly when I'm still listening to JMT's "Servants" and the AOTP album after all this time and still loving them. Those 2 albums are much better although History Of Violence does have some jems on it. Jus Allah is really simplistic and is just so-so when he's on a track. The wost thing of all is that the CD is only about 35 minutes long! I think the AOTP fellas are just putting too much stuff out there in 35 minute segments, like the Doap Nixon and King Syze CD's. Don't rip me off, guys. I must be one of the only guy still buying whole albums. Don't make me pay 15 bucks for 34 minute's worth of music. These CD's are already five bucks more than commercial release, at least give me enough material.

i've been listening to jedi mind tricks for a long time and was really anticipating this album, but it wasn't as great as i thought it would be. the beats are amazing (like always) and vinnie's flows are pretty good but jus allah is terrible...he tries to sound like vinnie but he has no direction when he's rhyming. if you've ever listened to the army of the pharaohs cd "ritual of battle", you know what i mean. the guest performances are pretty weak too, besides outerspace. i think this cd is better than their last one (servants in heaven, kings in hell) but it's not great.

Jus Allah pinches a loaf on this album
While the production by Stoupe seems as good as ever, and Vinnie Paz is on point as always, Jus Allah just isn't the same MC as he was back in the years of Violent by Design. Read more

In all seriousness...
Okay, so I sampled HOV, copped it, and I love it. Stoupe's production was on point, as usual. I love to just let myself get lost in the dark tone of the album. Read more
