Monch is a monster. Legitimate case for top 5 most skilled in hip hop history.
Pharoahe is one of those MCs who changes your life, who makes you realise how right you are to love hip hop.

Yes and yes again. I'm learning more and more now, just seeing his moves reflected in others' work gives me a kick. He did that! His vocal characters, a bit of Bowie maybe. I'm loving that Stress album ATM)

The Extinction Agenda is a classic. On a level all it's own. I listen to it to this day.
I already know this is going to be an absolute joy to watch. One could argue Pharoahe is maybe the most original emcee ever. His style is instantly recognizable, often imitated poorly but never duplicated.

A great observation on the influence of Organized Konfusion on today’s eMCees. Pharoahe is one of the best in regards to concept, technique, assonance, and onomatopoeia. A master rhyme technician.
Dude I'm so happy to see Pharoahe Monch get some love, super underrated MC.
Pharoahe been one of my favorite MC's for 25 yrs. Def. one of the best to ever do it. Love ur content my dude. Would like to see a doc like this on Ras Kass in the future. Keep up the good work.

@@thomasmasingi3852 I absolutely LOVE Pharoahe Monch and his albums, but the whole ‘yep, he’s the most technically gifted MC of all time without doubt’ comment is pathetic. There is nothing, outside of your personal opinion, which counts towards your own comment. There is no barometer of which to measure this, in the same way it would be nonsensical of me to say ‘Aesop Rock is without doubt the most technically gifted MC of all time’ for instance. The certainty in your comment, as if you’re the gatekeeper on what constitutes the best of all time. It’s not like comparing the best sports teams of all time where you can judge based on games won, goals scored, trophies collected etc so don’t sit there acting like your opinion counts for anything more than what it is - an OPINION.

Pharoahe is just something else, have always been amazed by his delivery. Technically he is the best MC that's ever touched a mic.

Saw him for FREE at a park jam in Queensbridge projects. Great show! Most people don't know that the Parks Department of the city of New York has a free hip hop concert series every summer, mostly old school and underground, and mostly at parks or projects in the artists own neighborhoods. Action Bronson, Jay Electronica, EPMD, Big Daddy Kane, Raekwon, Slick Rick, Special Ed, Nice & Smooth, Brand Nubians, Pharoe Monch, DJ sets by Kid Capri, Red Alert, Stretch Armstrong, D-Nice, Tony Touch, DJ Scratch, Questlove, plus Erika Badu, Jill Scott, Barrington Levy, ALL FREE, no tickets, just show up 👊

Top 5 of all time period and his live shows are insane
And this is exactly why he's my favorite of all time. His lyricism wi Th1rt3en brings me chills. Palindrome proves he can't be effed with.
As soon as you hear his voice you know it's pharoahe , Releasing hypnotical gases & Why & thirteen some of my favourite tracks
Monch is my Scorpio Brother, and someone I've known for some years now. He is indeed one of the most humble beings I've encountered in the industry. He is ironically so humble, that he gets a bit shy when you mention him as one of the greats. Last time I actually saw him was 2019, when I did an opening Deejay set for his anniversary of Internal Affairs...the only time he wants to hear "Simon Says" is when he performs it. He will be turned off if you play it if he is at a venue hearing someone spin... About Russell Simmons. He is also the man who didn't wish to sign Public Enemy either. His biggest concern was creating "hit records" as opposed to strictly having a talent. "In Vitro" is one of my favourite songs. They indeed are incredible and feed off of each other...

_Nice!_ Always glad to see Monch get his flowers - especially from a great channel like Def Goldbloom... he's been one of the best MCs on the planet since the '90s. A total BEAST! Organized Konfusion is incredible, Monch's solo debut is an absolute HipHop classic, and the recent project from his band th1rt3en, _A Magnificent Day For An Exorcism,_ is a great piece of work which many unfortunately overlooked. Edit: Your videos get better and better in production, btw - keep it up!

Thank you for this. I've always said that Pharoahe Monch is the most talented rapper of all time. His technical ability as an emcee paired with his poetic mind is absolutely unmatched. That first verse on Broken Again always gives me chills: "She rescued me, my heroine to the end But then she morphed into heroin in a syringe Around my bicep, I would tie a shoestring Tap! five times to find a vein in there Squeeze 7cc's so I could see the seven seas And CC all my friends so they could see what I was seeing But what they saw was a despicable human being So, I guess they just wasn't seeing what I was seeing" I mean, cot diyam. That's deep.

Well I don't know if Pharaoh's an Alien but I do know his rhymes flow is out of this world. Go back and listen to songs like "Stress", "Bring It On", "Metal Thangz", "Sin", & "Simon Says". His flow pattern is so innovative, you can't help to admire it I wish he put out more albums. ❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️🌹
The Th1rte3n album was fuckin crazy. "Triskaidekaphobia" had this line that was so simple, but it just blew my fuckin head off. "the reason pharoahe monch has an E in his name." As crazy as that song was, "palindrome" is probably one of the craziest pieces of writing, ever crafted. It's like that movie "arrival" where the aliens write a sentence from the beginning and end, simultaneously. Bananas.

All of his albums are sick but the newest one, ptsd, and internal affairs are just on another level. Somehow at the age of about 15 I found myself and a friend on shrooms at 3am in my room listening to the entire internal affairs album. Id owned it for a couple yrs but never appreciated how amazing it was untip that night. And never fully appreciated the genius of Pharoah until years later. That is a memory I will never forget. Each song made us feel like we were in a completely different world.
His verse alone on Stress makes him legendary status.
This artist changed my life.
Who agrees with me definitely him collaborating with MF Doom would have been a classic
Saw him in concert in 2008 it was dope. There was like 30 people there. Shook his hand and everything
Equinox was by far OK's most achieved project. All the lyricism and MC'ing skill they gathered along the years were synthetized and layed out with the most flawless ease on this last album of 97'.
Monch is the beast of the hip hop universe you can hear his influence in EMINEM , Kendrick and many others his latest album THIRTEEN is sheer brilliance essentially a Rock/Rap album freaking blew me away, it’s just built different it’s a album that you can listen to time and time again Songs like kill, kill,kill 🔥🔥🔥🔥💯he is one of the best hands down!!! Check out his song with MOP and I’m leaving you with that
Your videos are incredible, and Pharoahe Monch is in my top 5 of all time. It changes all the time, but Pharoahe is always in there.

Pharoahe Monch is transcendent. Strictly legendary
His verse on high voltage with Linkin Park was mind blowing
One of the dopest, and one of the most criminally underrated MCs.

Totally agree this documentary, Pharoahe Monch is one of my favorite MC ever.
Especially the record; Hell - featuring: Canibus
From how I currently understand it the voice character creation is largely attributed to Slick Rick. Pharoahe Monch took it to the next level and was distinct, but when it is put into words it is hard to not at least nod to Slick Rick. This is a great video. I would like to see who doesn't agree to gain perspective. Pharoahe Monch is definitely in my top 3 MCs.
