2011 has been a great year so far for hip-hop videos. Here’s another excellent one from the underground’s favorite, Pharoahe Monch. I’ll have more commentary via SSG Music, coming soon.
Read my commentary on Pharoahe Monch’s new video, “Clap (One Day)” at SSG Music:
The impending release of Pharoahe Monch’s third full-length solo album, W.A.R. (We Are Renegades), is cause for great excitement in hip-hop’s subterranean recesses. Show me a rap head who says he or she doesn’t feel Pharoahe’s unique style and I’ll show you a hip-hop tourist carrying a fake passport. The emcee’s extremely limited run of solo work over the last twelve years has crafted a reputation for him as a sort of reclusive hip-hop vintner, whose product is served in limited-edition releases only and in few locations.
