This is the first full length visual from W.A.R. (We Are Renegades) by Pharoahe Monch. It features his first single "Clap" and stars the Wire's Gbenga Akinnagbe, Kim Howard and Josiah Small. Lion's Share Music Group produced the original score. The film is about a police raid gone horribly wrong. Directed by Terrence Nance this film is absolutely stunning, if not better than Kanye West's Runaway, it is damn close. Kanye started a great new step in the music video world and Pharoahe Monch is taking it to the next level. I feel like this kind of art will definitely challenge other brilliant artists to bring their best work. Pharoahe Monch, under the radar, is one of the best rappers of all time. I feel like this album will really put him on the map as a legitimate presence in the rap game (that everyone feels). He is truly an artist. Bravo.
