Lee Boyd Malvo was the kid that committed the DC Sniper shootings with John Mohammed back in the early 2000's. They were gunning people down with a Bushmaster through a whole in the trunk of their car. Pharoahe is one of the most clever emcess to ever stand in front of a mic!
Now this is true hiphop music with real lyricism and content. A lot of people forget that hiphop is not a music genre alone. Hiphop is a culture consisting of 5 elements: Emceeing, DJing, B-Boying, Producing, and Graffiti. We need to remind the rest of the world what Hiphop truly is. Im starting a movement to bring Hiphop back called "Hiphop Heads" on facebook and I need help getting the movement started. So if you wanna help, then go to facebook and search "Hiphop Heads: A Hiphop Movement."
to the person who had a problem with the poster who appreciated the bit about catholic priests "touching youths": does it happen? yes. it happens. and PM is witty like that. don't blame the author. blame the diddler priests. and the church for regularly trying to cover it up. it's fair game for lyrical content.
@Paddyryan1066 i find it a annoying the only lyric you pick is the one that slanders Catholicism & Christianity by propagating the negative image of priests in this day&age.Pharoahe &Mos are decent & they have many songs that dont tar the majority with the same brush as the few who have ruined the churchs name.u should educate with some of their earlier stuff.Im sorry to pick on u but i love hiphop&it grinds my gears when people who are clearly new to it support only the hateful parts.peace
@EtonBoy5 - if they've (Catholic Priest) provided the an over excessive amount of headlines for this and not only that but the church's punishment is just moving to another facility your telling this kind of lyric will tarnish the church? I'm a raised Catholic and experienced this sort of situation, the so-called priest received a lap on the wrist and moved to another church. This didn't change my belief in the man up in the sky but most definitely ruined the church image personally.
Pharoahe is one of my fav MCs. His flow is rhytmically imprevisible and he spit killer rhymes. Check out Organized Konfusion man, every song of these guys are like lessons of flow it's siiiiick (and the lyrics are so brilliant) :D ! And Mos def is dope too, of course.
@poetryselite I officially revoke your right to judge ANYONE as one of the greatest. If you've never heard Pharoahe then you obviously haven't been around long enough nor have been exposed to enough quality to reserve the right to judge any MC...Go back to school....
My verses touch the youth like catholic preists hahaha

i dont believe monch's verse was freestyled. 0.32-0.38 was too calm yet dense, complex. unless he is just that good.

To spit passionately and mimic the clappin' of heat,
Over immaculate beats to capture the beast,
My verses touch the youth like Catholic priests ."

@EtonBoy5 I feel you are misinterpreting my appreciation- I just thought it was a very artful play with words
I have listened to Pharoahe and Mos plenty mate, how in God's name can you know from my previous comment what I have listened to or how long for.
It grinds my gears that you set up a youtube account to post that comment.
So shut up.
