After Sway’s request, Cons and Pharoahe took a moment to do what they do best. Sidebar: Q-Tip Responds To Consequence
To celebrate the release of W.A.R., Hot 97 sponsored Pharoahe Monch’s concert at S.O.B.’s last night in NYC. Backed by supreme vocalists Mela Machink and Showtyme, Monch performed some oldies but goodies and new material. He also brought out Immortal Technique, Styles P, and Jean Grae to help him out. It was a great show, but if you missed out check out more film below.
Pharoahe’s forthcoming set finally arrives next Tuesday. For those who can’t wait for the arrival, here’s one of the standouts featuring Jean Grae and Nickle Nine. Support W.A.R. (We Are Renegades).
This pre-maturely leaked a month ago, but here is the version you will hear from Pharaohe’s album. Not only does this deserve five on the black hand side, but the white as well. W.A.R. begins March 22.
Man, this drop from Masspike Miles is seriously smooth from start to finish. The Road Less Traveled totally delivers on that signature R&B vibe, and the production choices across these tracks are just insane. It honestly feels more complete than a lot of full-length albums out right now. Tracks like "Devoted" with Bun B and the title track hit different when you are just cruising around the city late at night. If you are heading out to grab the physical copy or hitting up a late-night listening session across town, trying to flag down reliable taxi services can sometimes be a real hassle, so planning ahead definitely saves the mood. Overall, this project proves why he is such a vital part of the Maybach crew. Definitely keep this one on repeat for a while.
