Following the release of 2008’s A History Of Violence, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania-based Jedi Mind Tricks co-founder Stoupe (a/k/a Stoupe The Enemy Of Mankind), has not been involved with the group. J.M.T.’s 2011 LP Violence Begets Violence featured outside production, while Stoupe released a solo project in 2010 (Decalogue), along with two side projects with groups, Dutch and Vespertina.
Yesterday, it was revealed that Stoupe—who also produced Canibus’ Rip The Jacker LP, will return to Hip Hop. Along with Supastition (a/k/a Kam Moye), the pair (as Vestige), will release The Inanimate Life this summer. According to an early press release, the LP “documents the fictional life story of a man born to an unfit mother and how his life spirals out of control due to her actions, as well as his own mistakes. The story and lyrics were written by Supastition with Stoupe and his production team (Bad Tape) handling the music which meshes together Hip Hop, Downtempo, and live instrumentation.”

never a fan of jedi mind tricks ( dont like vinnie paz)
but supastion dope
Stoupe has always been on point with the beats. It’ll be nice to hear someone NOT screaming “Muslim Rage” on all his beats.
he should do an album with ja rule.
the big ja would never roll with a no-name like this.
Oh look, the fuckboi Ja Rule trolls showed up, was waiting for ya’ll
you aint fuckin with master Ja. lil punk!
DAMN SOUNDS LIKE SOME DOPE SHIT
vinnie paz dont need this loser no more, he got c-lance now.
LOL c-lance is nowhere near stoupes level, c-lance will tell you that himself. stoupe is god on the boards but he should be producing canibus’ rip the jacker 2 instead of this project
Stoupes incredible production is what made jmt who they are not vinnies angry homophobic muslim raps.
c-lance fucking blows. one note hack producer with software and very little natural ability. headache beats with wack samples that are super loud and repetitive. stoupe samples from a deeper pool and always flips tracks to fall into his sound without making the same beat over and over. JMT lost big time rolling that kid out as the lead producer. he stinks. stoupe is a legend. would love to see paz and stoupe link back up and get it right. looking forward to this project aswell.
stoupe’s a loser? dude you need a doctor
Good for him! Even though I feel like JMT is better without him I will definitely be looking for his new music
Stoupe may be a better producer, but I think JMT sounds better with darker production. But then again… idk.
stoupe doesn’t have dark production? c-lance is a stoupe clone
Sounds like a project i wanna listen to but like someone below said, it would be cool if he produced RTJ2 or atleast had a part in it. other than that JMT is alright with him.. Violence Begets Violence gets constant play in my ride!
Stoupe and Canibus had no communication with each other…ever. Babygrande gave the vocals to Stoupe to produce. JMT left Babygrande and that was the end of the Canibus connection and anything Babygrande related.
I meant is alright without him lol
JA RULE X STOUPE X SUPASTITION
recipe for murdaaaaaaaaaaa.
Yes! The Dutch project was dope but I’ve been waiting for Stoupe to produce more hip hop. I still wish he stuck with JMT but his beats are great for concepts and really deep music so hopefully this project gives the freedom for this. I remember Jus saying Stoupe was still on that Razorblade Salvagion vibe… I sure hope so!
JMT better off without stoupe…?? What are people on exactly? JMT built their legacy on Stoupes legendary production imo. Very happy hes back on his hiphop tip. Drop it already. pz.
