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.
Couldn’t have said it better myself
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)
Yes
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.
Frr he him and O.C have such an amazing cadence
Maybe corniest rapper ever... Example this verse from The Anthem: "As horrid as Boris Karloff was
When I cut your neck, leave a little piece of skin
So the head won't fall off" Wow.... that's embarrassing.
Here is another verse from this "amazing" mc: "Some might even say this song is sexist-es
'Cause I asked the girls to rub on their breast-eses" lmao... wack
The guy in the video says Russel Simmons missed out on signing phaorahe monch then goes on to say pharoahe monch went on to go wood... ok buddy.
@@nak5eno616 Whats so bad about that line?
The Extinction Agenda is a classic. On a level all it's own. I listen to it to this day.
Who agrees with me definitely him collaborating with MF Doom would have been a classic
Dude I'm so happy to see Pharoahe Monch get some love, super underrated MC.
Yep, Monch is a monster, possibly the most technically gifted MC of all time
He is,no doubt.
@@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.
@@andyc6542 you get them panties out of a bunch yet?😂
Ummm... No.
@@thomasmasingi3852 One of the corniest rappers no doubt.
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.
"I leave no optical footprints inside the sands of time so it's impossible to follow me"
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.
Thank you for shedding a light on these talented rappers

Top 5 of all time period and his live shows are insane
Pharoahe is just something else, have always been amazed by his delivery. Technically he is the best MC that's ever touched a mic.
If you haven’t seen him live you should! Absolute hip hop legend and still killing it.
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 👊
WHAAAAAT??!!
🤩That’s amazing!!
We Are Renegades was one of my favorite albums from him. SO MUCH Concepts on that shit! 🔥
Pharoah very different in his own league,of story telling,well done for giving him some much needed exposure
I was too young to comprehend how significant Organized Konfusion was to the Golden age of Hip Hop. 2016 was the year I listened to their 1994 album and I must say that's the definition of the Golden Age of Hip Hop
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...
I appreciate the inside information, thank you!
@@DefGoldbloom
You are quite welcome...and thank you for showing your appreciation for both Organized Konfusion as well as Monch as a solo artiste...
_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!
@@DefGoldbloom Thank _you!!_
13 got me on the journey mate!
Currently so so "Stressed" ♡♡.
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.
"Attack the whack, take rap to the maximum." It's a simple line, but quite unbreakable.
Nah it's a play on EPMD''s lyrics and a few others that I have heard but it's okay I love PM. Here's those EPMD lyrics: The wack I subtract The strong I attack
The ones
who got the mike and freeze, I throw back
Pharoahe Monch is transcendent. Strictly legendary
I don't think people realize how nice this man is. 🎤
Thank you for putting so much respect on this brothas name. He's truly one of the Illest. Dope video.
Thanks for watching!
The legacy of Paul C and Mat Doo lives on!!!
As soon as you hear his voice you know it's pharoahe , Releasing hypnotical gases & Why & thirteen some of my favourite tracks
Love this short documentary on Pharaohe Monch! I was a teenager when Rawkus started blowing up and everyone on top of their game. Man i miss those times
Ayee I got here early. Jus finished watching the Rawkus vid I need a Estee Nack & or a Al. Divino vid or them as a group cuz they one of the hottest things in rap rn and the work ethic is wild. Or a Flee Lord vid cuz Ladies & Gentlemen boutta drop keep up the dope content Def you the only man in your lane rn and u killin it🔥🔥
ua-cam.com/video/Dbx977HlE58/v-deo.html Al.Divino
Peace thank you! I already have a video on Divino. Nack and Flee Lord definitely deserve one as well, hope to get to those videos soon
@@DefGoldbloom ohh yea I literally watched that Divino video months ago my bad🤣I think that’s the 1st vid I ever saw by u that or the Mach one. I meant them as a group cuz Hidden Character is coming into his own frfr. Nack be funny as hell with the Mr. Rose and ¡ELDARIROSE! names tho like mf I know that’s you🤣🤣love Nack tho one of the best out rn fasho.
The al.divino video is _so_ good... check it out!

Definitely one of my favorites! Monch, Rakim,Black thought, G rap, MOS Def, AZ and NAS !
KRS-1 is still number 1. No rapper spoke deeper truth. Lyrics too much.
None wins battle raps vs KRS-1.
Great list! I appreciate hearing other folks ideas about the greats - that’s a funky KRS 1 reply though…I mean I dig him and all but his ego and polo-tricks are a detractor for me now that I’ve checked his vibes on many different levels…seen?
Man, this was a fantastic mini-documentary. Appreciate this.
Thanks for watching!
This artist changed my life.
"desire" one of the craziest albums ever
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.
Ffffffuck o_o
One of my favorite MC’s of all time. I’ve met him and seen him live many times over the years.
Internal affairs is a hip hop classic gem crazy how no one gives this man his flowers
AWESOME JOB ON THE VIDEO WELL TOLD. me and my hermanos have been students of the great pharoahe ever since we first had simon says. i hear rappers calling themselves god mcees - but him? he lives it. hey fans which is your favorite monche joint of all time ?
Peace from California! ✌🏽
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.
❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️🌹
SOOOOOO glad to hear that others appreciate the MONSTER that is Monch. He’s been on my Mt. Rushmore of MCs for a looooong time.
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.
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.
Nice & long overdue upload regarding the true GOAT MC!Much respect for making this dope & factually accurate Hip Hop history production.
His verse alone on Stress makes him legendary status.
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'.
Pharoahe without a doubt TOP 5 of all time...
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
This Man Was A Problem, He Is Definitely Of The Most Skilled Emcees Who Ever Blessed A M.I.C, Word Is Bond
Thanks for putting this together!! I'm going to purchase a couple of these albums NOW!!
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.
PS. I'd love to see a Planet Asia or Black Thought video.
Dope ideas! PA definitely deserves a full video ASAP
@@cotton-reel Cali Agent #1
THE "13" ALBUM NEEDS TO MAKE IT'S WAY TO MY CRATES.....BEAST....TRUE CREATIVITY.
This was dope, mainly because as a kid I used to LOVE when a Organizes Konfusion video would come on. It’s been so long that I actually forgot, forgot even that Pharaohe Monch was part of the group! He’s always been one of the best, great to see others recognize that as well. Dope doc bro, keep in coming.
One of the dopest, and one of the most criminally underrated MCs.
Legitimately might be one of the hardest channels doing it , from the artist you cover , the break downs , the elite samples on every video! Keep doing this i love what you doing & how you doing it fam!
Peace, thank you 🙏🏻
indisputably one of rap's GOATs
Pharoahe Monch is definitely alien. So overlooked in the game, under appreciated. your channel came up for the first time for me and the topic at hand got me subbed on spot. ty for giving this man some just due. 💯💎🔥
His verse on high voltage with Linkin Park was mind blowing
GREAT VIDEO! Monch is a straight up beast on the mic!
I loved this mini documentary. Being a bug Pharoah Monch fan I am glad that someone did this. Nice work
So, do bugs watch ordinary sized documentaries also, or just mini documentaries?
Saw him in concert in 2008 it was dope. There was like 30 people there. Shook his hand and everything
thanks for this! pharoahe is a god-tier MC. one of the best to ever do it.
Met him in Queens this is my guy
Pharaoh Monche is definitely one of my top 5 for sure. Very well done documentary. Thumbs Up!
I’ve got a photograph of my daughter (now 34 and pregnant!) in front of the stage while Monch and Poe are doing a sound check just b4 I interviewed Organized Konfusion at the DNA Lounge in SF, in the early 90’s for SLAP Skateboard Magazine - to top it off…it’s panoramic!!! Hella cool!!!
...well done. 1.desire 2.internal affairs 3.stress 4.organized konfusion 5.war 6.ptsd 7.a magnificent day for exorcism...
Alien MC most definitely. Listening 🎧 in 2022
He and Prince Po were that WORK! Love Monch!
Pharoahe is your favorite lyricist's lyricist. Not even rapper. The dude was incredible his entire career.
I’m so surprised that there was no mention of hypnotical gases. In my opinion it is the greatest example of Pharaoh’s abilities at such a young age.
I salute you for shining light on to me the greatest lyricist to ever put pen to pad. He is literally the most underrated emcee to ever live. Not exaggerating by any means. Every prolific rapper knows this but rarely mentions him when asked about top 5. Andre and Pharoahe to me are the "PEN"nacle of this emceeing art form. There are many others but there is something very unique about these two. Troy Donald Jameson aka Pharoahe Monch is a blessing to anyone who truly loves the art of emceeing.
One of my favourite videos you’ve put out Def!! Monch is the best lyricist out there right now. Huge props as ever homie 👊
Thank you DS! Hope you been well
Totally agree this documentary, Pharoahe Monch is one of my favorite MC ever.
Pharoahe Monch been dope since those OK Days.
I have everything this man has put out. When they say who is the dopest.Pharoah is my first answer. Simply incredible
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.
Facts all around 💯
Like you, my first time really hearing him was Desire. I bought it on reco from a record shop and I loved it! The following albums are unbelievable! I've never heard the OK albums, but I'll check them and 13 out. Good video!
Especially the record; Hell - featuring: Canibus
You destroyed this essay, thanks!
Thank you!!
Great work! Very informative... The first time I heard him with O K, I knew that he was special. His skillz separated himself in the duo.
Now, try Kool G Rap! My all time favorite, from start to finish!
Recently became one of my favorite rappers!!! Amazing lyricism, otherworldly flow, and is always presenting creative and artisric ideas/visions in his music!!!
Great vid, thanks for shedding some light into the career or PM.
Great video! Enjoy all the content. I'd be really interested to see you do a video about Jeru The Damaja
Without a doubt ‘Monch is the best to ever pick up a pen,pad & MIC imo!
Pharohe Monch is ALWAYS in my no1 GOAT MC’s spot,unlike my 2nd,3rd,4th & 5th place GOATS,whose placements change from time to time,depending on the day/mood I’m in.
Pharohe’ has always been my no 1 MC GOAT since O’K’s sophomore masterpiece,with MF DOOM & Rakim in my no2 & 3 spots(at this very moment),but their positions move up & down in my TOP 5 of all time but Monch is the consistent bona fide no1 MC & lyricist of all time imo.
Dudes a bona fide wordsmith GENIUS!
We appreciate these vids man
My favorite rapper of all time. He'll always have my utmost respect as a creative.
Amazing video for a phenomenal rapper. THANK YOU🙏
🙌
Pharaoh Monch is the actual father of Andre 3000’s style. I said it. The End
Have always maintained he is Top 5. LL came out and said as much very recently. Very informative synopsis. Thanks!
Monch is greatest MC, writer and creative rapper in hip-hop ever!
SALUTE TO MOE DEE FOR THE COMPLIMENT....FROM ONE EMCEE TO ANOTHER.
Another Queens Emcee... What up Lil Bee!!!
I've actually just discovered monch a few months ago 🔥
Great video! Pharoahe is a legend.
Super high level rap. Seriously, his skill level is so high I think he was lightweight blackballed. Black Thought is the same way but his skill level is way too high to ignore. No one wants to be a body on a track so they won’t work with the 2. They kill what ever beat they are on. Pharaohe and Thought are not from this planet.
Great vid! KA next? 🙌
Coming very soon!
Oh yea, I see you're a fan of R.A.P. Ferreira! I got to hang out with him before a show in June & since I knew he was a huge Myka 9 fan, I brought my Myka 9 book with me to show it to him & we were just geeking out together over the book. He actually purchased a Freestyle Fellowship record that day from the record store at the venue he was playin. His work is heavily inspired by Myka 9 & he actually references a couple Freestyle Fellowship songs in his music. At the end of 'Doldrums' he references the Freestyle Fellowship song by saying "Can You Find.... the level of difficulty in this?" & that song also samples that same Freestyle Fellowship song with the repeated "Aw Yeah". And then at the end of his song 'Sansoucci Palace' on his album 'Toothpaste Suburb' he spits the "We Will Not Tolerate" verse which myka wrote in 1991
Dope!! Now that you mention it I can totally hear his Freestyle Fellowship inspiration 🔥
@@DefGoldbloom hell yea! Keep up the good work! I've been enjoying your content. The Rawkus vid was also tight btw
It's all love!
Keep up the brilliant journalism brother I love seeing those subs of yours rise i remember when you only had 400 subs and I could not believe you didnt have 100k already
Peace thank you for the support my friend 🙏🏻
Another Alien MC is Sir Menelik aka Scaramanga Shallah 🔥🐐🔥
I'm not familiar with them I'll have to check them out
@@DefGoldbloom he was the only feature on the Dr. Octagon album (Chewbacca Uncircumcised). He was on Rawkus and can rap on an elite level. He definitely doesn't have an major hits but if you listen to him you can tell he was up there with Pharaoh and Eminem in the late 90s. In the 2000s he rapped over grimy fly averex gold chain Wu-Tang inspired beats that predated Griselda and was the top student at the Temple of Hip-hop (the place Westside Gunn studied and learnt from).
