Biography

US hip hop group with two members from Philadelphia, PA and one from Camden, New Jersey. The group was founded by two high school friends rapper [a=Vinnie Paz] (Vincenzo Luvineri) and producer / DJ [a=Stoupe The Enemy Of Mankind] (Kevin Baldwin). In 1999 the New Jersey rapper [a=Jus Allah] (James Bostick) joined the group to record the 2nd studio album by JMT, [Link] but left shortly after for reasons that remain unexplained. The track "The Rebuilding" (2006) marked his unofficial return to JMT since the split, but made a full fledged return aside [a=Vinnie Paz] for the 6th studio album, [Link]. Kwestion was a replacement for JMT's previous tour DJ, Drew Dollars, who is no longer affiliated with the group.

LYRICS

[Planetary]:
In my historical oracle
I blast metaphorical
editorials educated
in my territorial
get torn
heavily armed with seventy bombs
that'll blast divine like the heavenly song
Your men'll be gone
if they explore my deepest thoughts
I beat hearts in two then ask demons for chalk
I'm dreaming a stalk
MCees in the dark I walk
Blindfolded the mind's golden
Watch how you talk
My style is an art
Recognize lyrical purity
All hell breaks loose like a mall with no security
The dopest vocalist (I)
with my third eye, I focus with
I proceed, flow with the speed of an Indy motorist
There's more to this than wasted
Shiny chains and bracelets
I hit tracks my tongue waitin for the brains to blaze in
Amazin angelic, tell it to your people
(Sample:Your mic and my mic, come on yo now equal)

[chorus]
Illedelph is like the sun cuz we shine with rhymes
The Underground is like the moon you only see us at times
And at times we're like skies when the stars recline
Jedi Mind, outer space, coincide and combine

[Jus Allah]:
Raw poems, bury your body in catacombs
Rip your soul from your limbs
Like brims from Jip Jones
In the Twilight Zone we disperse cowards
Vampires that stalk earth on reversed hours
Nite cause we talk a different song
My latitude is God darts out my jaw
Leave eternal scars
You left breathing out of tube straws by the marksmen
harnessing science for the marvelous and the charlatan
Raps will make you parallax
My domain has power to block synapses I daze
War shots fired off by the army type warlocks
Devil's Plan is to have you drip in the Clorox
Beast deceiving us, ways devious, possessing
My peeps to walk streets with stolen heat like Prometheus
Elements rushin you back to hell again
Illadelphians crush your skeleton to f**kin gelatin

Chorus

[Ikon the Verbal Hologram]:
Don't ever come at me with war
I've severed scores of orators
Rappers fall onto all fours like minotaurs
with Jedi Mind and the planetary be bombin this
we stand one step above you like a pharmacist
with Ominous detonate the bomb
Heads dread hallucinogenics since Vietnam
I spit a psalm
Create bombs like an Iraqi
Swear on the Bible and then lie to Ecclesiastes

[Planet]
Assault and battery

[Ikon the Verbal Hologram]
Battle me that'll be what splits you
Store enormous amounts of energy in the crystal
we boa constrict you
The gods are militant
You faggots couldn't go the length
like you was impotent
You ignorant
Your whole click gets split in half
You step in Allah's path, and face Allah's wrath
WHAT

[chorus] 2X
