Milk Crate's Top 10 Albums: Monkzillas #9
#9 Jedi Mind Tricks - Violent By Design
Damn mega fail on my part for missing my day on posting up my number 9. A big mixture of my full time job along with side projects im working on kept me from staying on track with Poet and Kannon (who didn't slip in reminding me). With that said my apologies, and big ups to Jedi Mind Tricks for having a place in my personal list of greats!
There was a time and place where every one of us bumped this album somewhere down your lifeline if you were a fan of that RAW Hip Hop vibe. The Trio dropped this bomb on us in 2000 and still till this day you'll hear it in rotation among the hardcore listeners. Songs like "Heavenly Divine"," I against I", and "Blood Runs Cold" are among classics from the album as a whole. Jus Allah and Vinnie Paz brought the metaphysical content with violent lyrics to the table, while Stoup the enemy of mankind provided the melodic and almost melancholy like production forward to balance the weight.
