Video: Pharoahe Monch "Welcome To The Terrordome"
Posted by Shamz on Oct 31, 2008
Happy Halloween y'all, and Happy Birthday to Pharoahe Monch. What better way to celebrate the man, then with a new video. Today, Pharoahe asked us to premiere his new video for "Welcome To The Terrodome," one of the many standout tracks from hist last LP, Desire. The song, as you should know, is a remake of the Public Enemy smash bearing the same name. The song is nearly 20 years old and still holds true. The video is filled with many strong (and some graphic) Socio-Political images to help get it's meaning across. Follow me after the jump for another video featuring Monch explaining how the song and video came to be.

As a 40 year old original "decendant" of Hip Hop, I must give mad props to Pharoahe; he did his thing. But, reciting the words of true prophets like Chuck D does not wisdom represent. I will say that to study someone such as Chuck, Griff, or the likes of that particular era make Monche an excellent carrier of the torch-let's see where you are going to take it from there, from student to teacher, usher in the next generation as each one should indeed teach one. You and those like you make me proud to be a parent in this new age of Hip Hop; I have an example that I can refer my three sons to.

Dope song. Pharoahe is Top Ten, no doubt. But 1nce again, the video disappoints. What's up with these no skill music video directors these days. Just cause you got a camera and some editing program doesn't mean you have any business directing shit... Let the real directors stand up and these wanna-be's sit down. Or take a film class or something. Bitches.
