Jus Allah(born James Bostick) is a New Jersey rapper who made his debut on Jedi Mind Tricks second album "Violent by Design" in 2000. He is known Who|date=September 2008 for his dark and aggressive lyrics that are commonly Afro-centric.

Leaving Jedi Mind Tricks

A short while after the release of Violent by Design, Jus Allah left amid uncertainty over JMT's new association with Babygrande Records. He then went on 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, joined Babygrande, 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 stated that he had absolutely nothing to do with the album, 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" produced entirely by Sharkey. Guest spot spots for this album include Eli Porter, Mike Ecko, The Moose, MF DOOM, and Esoteric. It is rumored that Jus Allah found a lot of inspiration for this album from objects he found in the inner depths of Bomshot's couch. Jus would often smoke excessive amounts of marijuana and create forts out of the couch cushions. Bomshot caught on to this behavior and later kicked him out of the apartment. This is one of the main reasons that The Colossus has been pushed back so many times. In 2007 Jus 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 titled "A History of Violence." [http://www.philaflava.com/vinnie_paz.htm] .

Reunion with Jedi Mind Tricks

[http://www.artofrhyme.com/Interviews/AORInterviews.php?id=56] In the interview he states that "I'm back in the group [and that] I'm focused on...putting out the next Jedi Mind Tricks album...a History of Violence." In addition, he says that he has rejoined Babygrande and that the entire "All Fates Have Changed" fiasco has been put in the past and was in large part a misunderstanding [http://www.myspace.com/jusallah] . Babygrande will also be releasing Jus Allah's next solo album, The Colossus.
