The powerful vision of Pharoahe Monch's writing ascends to new heights thanks to the help of The Revive Big Band who lend their soulful arrangements to perform his classics together on 8/27/12 at New York's Blue Note Jazz Club. Gain inspiration to chase your "desire" and be thankful to be "still standing" as the genres of Hip Hop & Big Band unite to inspire through the power of music.






Monch has a unique and imaginative way of picturing the ghetto and living within it's daily hustle. "Haile Selassie Karate" featuring Denaun Porter brings these visuals to life by taking you to the slums of South Africa where Hip Hop culture is thriving in the midst of the everyday struggle.

From the W.A.R. (We Are Renegades) album. Shot in 2012 in Mitchell's Plain South Africa.
