Pharoahe Monch To Release “PTSD” With Guest Appearances From Black Thought, Talib Kweli, dEnAuN, The Stepkids, Vernon Reid & Production From Lee Stone, Marco Polo, Jesse West, The Lion Share & Quelle Chris

“PTSD” (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) will be released on 4-15-14

With his highly-anticipated fourth solo-LP, “PTSD” (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), Pharoahe Monch re-emerges with a new concept project which finds the ground-breaking emcee tackling PTSD; a severe anxiety disorder that can develop after exposure to any event that results in psychological trauma. Throughout the duration of the LP, Monch narrates as an independent artist weary from the war against the industry machine and through the struggle of the black male experience in America.
 
Pharoahe Monch has been at the forefront of lyrical innovation for two-decades now.  Not only is he one of Hip-Hop’s preeminent lyricists, crafting intricate rhyme schemes and intelligent raps, but he is also an incisive political and social commentator, using Hip-Hop as a platform for political engagement.

'Rapid Eye Movement' featuring Black Thought of the Roots Crew, is a lyrical barrage worthy of these two titans, as Monch and Black Thought get lucid for a 4-minute exhibition of pure lyricism.  "Rapid Eye Movement" is produced by Marco Polo with scratches by DJ Revolution.

Another joint from the archives, produced by one of my favorite producers ODDISEE! This is a joint that I spit with my brother Big Daddy Kane. This was not some email Collab, this joint was me & Kane in the lab building a pattern and doing it the way we used to do it back in the days. Salute Emcees.

In 2003 I was sitting on my PC downloading countless gigabytes of Underground Hip Hop, a sub-genre of rap I had recently been introduced to. Somehow I came across this record called the "Two Headed Dragon" by Binary Star. After thinking it was really dope, I found another record called, "Reality Check." I can honestly say that record changed my life.. Shortly after being inadvertently introduced to a brand of Hip Hop i'd never before experienced, I joined a message board for One Be Lo fans where I could keep up to date with the artist's movements. In 2004-2005, I was a freshman in high school walking around campus bumping SONOGRAM in my Sony CD player. That's right kids, a CD player. It was around that same time I first met One Be Lo at a show at the California Polytechnic University of Pomona. After that show I would stay in touch with Lo every so often via the internet. Years later, around 2009, I get an e-mail from dude talking about, "Let's hoop." With no hesitation, I scooped Lo up from Senim Silla's crib out in LA, and took him to the infamous RC Sports Center in Rancho Cucamonga. I ran five on five with him, my boy D, my brother, and this kid Josh. It wasn't till after that game of five on five that I showed the One Man Army my music. Though he gave my CD a real listen and had some encouraging words for me, I truly believe it was really my jump shot that earned his respect. A little over 10 years have now passed since that day. I've been blessed to have traveled with One Be Lo on multiple tours, including internationally. We've recorded a few songs, played a few games of basketball, and have had countless hours building as brothers in Islam. Though I have known Lo for 10 years, this is the first time I have him featured on one of my songs. "All Natural," is what occurs when you let relationships build organically. Patience always prospers.. #WeAreFew

Heroes for Hire is a classic Hip-Hop duo created by MC Ghost of the Machine and Producer DJ Proof. Ghost of the Machine reached out to DJ Proof back in 2016 and they linked up and created a timeless sound. With Ghost of the Machine being a fan of comic books and both DJ Proof and Ghost feeling the responsibility of  keeping the legacy of Hip-Hop alive they came up with the group name, Heroes for Hire.   Ghost of the Machine's music paints a picture of the daily 9-5 struggle, and day to day triumphs. DJ Proof's gritty boom bap beats serve as a catalyst to Ghost's spoken word. Heroes for Hire harness sharp lyricism/production in every song to contradict what is lacking in the current state of this medium of Hip-Hop.
