Coming off the divisive Visions Of Gandhi (2003) this album signified somewhat of a return to the rawer boom-bap sounds of JMT’s second album Violent By Design (2000). Legacy Of Blood is the fourth album from Jedi Mind Tricks. Paz, Stoupe, and Kwestion returned in 2018 with the group’s ninth effort, The Bridge and the Abyss. Their eighth album, The Thief and the Fallen arrived in 2015. Stoupe returned to JMT in time for the follow-up, just as Jus Allah parted ways with JMT once again. Servants became the group’s first appearance on the Billboard 200, bowing outside the Top 100. Jus Allah then made his return to the JMT lineup, which issued A History of Violence in 2008. 2011 saw the release of Violence Begets Violence, the collective’s first release without the production help of Stoupe, relying on work by DJ Kwestion, C-Lance, Nero, and more. In 2006, Paz’s Hip Hop supergroup Army of the Pharaohs made its full-length debut with The Torture Papers, while the release of Jedi Mind Tricks’ Servants in Heaven, Kings in Hell proved that the MC’s primary group was still functioning. They quickly followed with another chart-climbing effort, 2004’s Legacy of Blood, which featured Wu-Tang members Killa Priest and GZA. The album peaked in the Top 20 of the Billboard Heatseekers and Independent Albums charts, recruiting Canibus, Kool G Rap, Ras Kass, Esoteric, and more. Lif, Esoteric & Virtuoso, and Sean Price. Jus Allah took a break from JMT and his spot was filled by DJ Drew Dollars for 2003’s major-label debut, Visions of Gandhi. The newly minted trio issued sophomore effort Violent by Design in late 2000, marking the group’s last album before signing to Babygrande. The set featured appearances by Apathy, Black Thought, and Jus Allah, who officially joined JMT soon after. One year later, they gained a bigger cult following with their first full-length, The Psycho-Social, Chemical, Biological & Electro-Magnetic Manipulation of Human Consciousness. The founding duo released their debut, the Amber Probe EP, in 1996.

Over the decades, additional members DJ Kwestion, Jus Allah, and DJ Drew Dollars rotated in and out of the lineup, from their 1997 sample-heavy debut, The Psycho-Social, Chemical, Biological & Electro-Magnetic Manipulation of Human Consciousness, to their aggressive late-2010s output The Thief and the Fallen and The Bridge and the Abyss.
