JUS ALLAH
New Jersey rapper who made his debut on Jedi Mind Tricks second album Violent by Design in 2000. A short while after the release of Violent by Design, Jus Allah left the group to start his solo career at rapper Virtuoso's label Omnipotent Records. He released a 12" single entitled White Nightmare on the label, the b-side track being Reign of the Lord. In 2005 he left Omnipotent Records and joined Babygrande Records and dropped his first solo album, All Fates Have Changed. Jus Allah
later stated in interviews he had never given his OK for the album to be released, and wasn't satisfied with some of the album's production but the album was released regardless. In early 2006 an album called Necronomicon was released featuring both Jus Allah and Boston rapper Bomshot as hip-hop duo The Devilz Rejects. Jus Allah states that he had absolutely nothing to do with the album (Necronomicon), and that he was not being paid for it. The new verses on the album were most likely just old, unreleased recordings from his prior label Omnipotent Records, where Bomshot was also an artist. Jus Allah is currently working on his second album entitled The Colossus which is set for a summer of 2007 release. He recently reunited with his former group Jedi Mind Tricks and released their first collaborative track in 5 years, titled "The Rebuilding". According to Vinnie Paz, Jus Allah is set to appear on the next Jedi Mind Tricks album tentatively titled "A History of Violence." He is known for his dark and aggressive lyrics that are commonly Afro-centric. His complex comprehensions and rhyme schemes that make full use of metaphors have made Jus a popular member of the East Coast underground rap scene.

iCON THE MIC KING
Brewerytown North Philadelphia native Michael King is the last of a dying breed. iCON's music combines the principles of yesteryear with the cutting edge of progressive lyricism while maintaining its soul. That statement in and of itself may be hard to swallow but with the context of his influences (Pharoahe Monch, WuTang Clan, and the Lyricist Lounge-era) it becomes clear that this torchbearer for upper-echelon emceeing is everything he says he is.
