Masters of Illusion is a hip hop side-project of renowned turntablist Kutmasta Kurt and the 2 emcees Kool Keith and Motion Man. Their first self-titled album was released in 2000.
The album's title includes "Kutmasta Kurt presents..." which implies that Kutmasta Kurt brought the collaboration together. Kurt had previously worked as a producer for several of Kool Keith's albums, many of which featured Motion Man on a track.
After the Masters of Illusion project, Kutmasta Kurt went on to produce Motion Man's debut album, Clearing the Field in 2002. Kurt also released an album of his own, Redneck Games, in 2004.
Whether or not the group members plan to release a second Masters of Illusion LP is currently unknown.
