Pharoahe Monch - Pain

Rate / Comment

Off of his Pre-Desire Mixtape "The Awakening"... Just a little example of why he's my favorite rapper... God Mixtape DJs can be annoying...

"As my spirit get absorbed on the tape when they record it
That's the reason why MC's lived get shorted...
Salvation: Worth more than platinum and gold can you afford it?
It's morbid but I manifest pain and put it in orbit."

People are sleeping on PM. Shame, really, as he really polished his craft and grew up lyrically speaking. Went from Simon Says to this.

'Will I discuss life with my seed that was aborted?".

That is mad pain, guess that's why the radio won't play it.

@BrotherChimaobi Yeah, the lryics are incredibly poetic.

@BrotherChimaobi "Went from simon says to this"?!?!?! He's been rapping since the 80s! he dropped his first album with Prince Po as Organized Konfusion in 1991 when he was 19! Which is a bonafide hip hop classic along with their 2 others, Stress: The Extinction agenda and The Equinox...THEN came Simon Say's n Internal Affairs! check the tunes Releasing Hypnotical Gases, Prisoners of War and Stray Bullet to see how ahead of the game he was!!!

Best emcee EVER!
