Pharoahe Prestley
I have a confession to make. When I first heard Pharoahe Monch's "Body Baby" track ages ago I was disappointed because Pharoahe doesn't usually do tracks like this. Pharoahe is known for his intelligent Hip Hop - anyone who's heard the classic 'Internal Affairs' album will testify to that. Even his club bangers are filled with quotable lines and intelligent rhetoric. "Push" was the perfect first single from his forthcoming album Desire - I was getting excited, I even sang along on air during my HipHop M1X Show. Then came Body Baby. I hated it instantly. It's obviously built to cross over and I hope he makes some $$$ but I just wasn't in it - I now have to admit that I was being narrow minded. What changed my mind? This:
You know sometimes how you don't get a track until you've seen the video? Body Baby was that track for me.
What do you think? Love it or hate it?

Post your commentI thought,"Body Baby," is good. The other single "Guns Draw" is the Pharoah most peope are accustom to hearing which is a monster.
