"Rise of the Machines" is a single by Hip Hop duo Jedi Mind Tricks, released as a limited edition promo single in 2003 [1]. The vinyl is the only JMT single not to feature a B-Side. "Rise of the Machines" features a Latin acoustic guitar sample, coupled with clips from Mike Tyson's infamous "I wanna eat your children" speech. The song, named after the film Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, features revered West Coast lyricist Ras Kass, who was imprisoned at the time of the release. The song features a previously recorded verse from the rapper. JMT vocalist Vinnie Paz joined in on the "Free Ras Kass" campaign, saying the phrase on the track, and wearing the "Free Ras Kass" shirt on the Visions of Gandhi tour.
"Rise of the Machines" was the third and final single released from JMT's third album Visions of Gandhi, following 2002's "Animal Rap" and 2003's "Kublai Khan".
