Pharoahe Monch – Shine f. Mela Machinko (prod. Diamond D)

Time to pull out the playlist of Internal Affairs from the iPod and gets to head-nodding in anticipation for this one. Here’s the first single from the newest member of Duck Down Records’ upcoming W.A.R. (We Are Renegades), set to drop this fall.

  4. My initial reaction is that this track is okay, Monch’s capable of much more, but maybe this cut’ll grow on me, folk. Regardless I’m checkin’ for W.A.R., he’s never dropped an Album/Project I haven’t highly enjoyed.

  5. Sadat X’s flow…good hip hop anyway but NOT thrilled by that joint.

  8. Shits decent at best. Not bad for bad for a debut i guess but there’s better new artist out right now but with a mixtape or two I’m sure he could garner a buzz.

  9. Monch is ill, Diamond sounds refreshing.

  10. I knew that first verse sounded familar. He used it like way back on the Greeen Lantern show, it’s dope to hear it used for it’s intended beat.

  12. (Walks into the thread and slaps the monkey sh$t out of Complacent, and pauses in case his comment was sarcasm)

    Pharoahe Monch doesn’t ever have to create a buzz, you just need to educate your ear. Him back with Diamond D is glorious and dope.

    Pooch

  14. yea…*listens*……….*plays again*…..
    just wat i thought..this track suffers from excessive FIRE.

    cHEchechea said this on July 9th, 2010 at 2:18 pm

  15. Even though Complacent was wrong, he was right when he said “Shits decent at best.” Personally, I wouldn’t even say it’s decent.

    Pluto said this on July 9th, 2010 at 2:18 pm

  16. I think W.A.R. might be a problem tho…Diamond D is back, along with Mr Porter…plus Black Milk, Marco Polo, & Nottz on the production tip…wowzers.

  17. Nice.

    Nicccccccccce.

  18. I don’t wanna listen to anything from W.A.R. until it drops, but… how can I resist?

    Ladies, rub on ya titties!!

  20. nyyyyce. love pharoahe with diamond d (the best producer on the mic), and the reunion with mela (pushing was dope). now if we could get chuck norris to dropkick complacent in the face i would feel complete.

  21. My Mama cannot afford whole foods, she break fast with a prayer call it soul food – come on son, you think that’s average shit, this nigga is a beast!!!

    Renegade said this on July 9th, 2010 at 2:56 pm

  22. This is genius.

    Anyone saying this is average was probably just listenin to the beat and not the beat and the lyrics.
    LISTEN TO THE LYRICS, BEAT AND WHOLE SONG..then comment intelligently. thank you.

  26. Jay Elect says, ” Pharoahe Monch is twenty times nicer than Eminem.”

    JAY ELECT NIGGA said this on July 9th, 2010 at 5:06 pm

  27. Oh yes. Duck Down gon set him straight with the production I’m sure.
    As for Complacent, enough people want to punch u in the face already so I’ll leave u with this: Go get Organized Konfusion’s “Stress: The Extinction Agenda” album. That is primed out Monch.

    komplexx904 said this on July 9th, 2010 at 5:41 pm

  28. if he works closely with the label on this record then it could have some amazing features, krs-one, sean price (and maybe rock) skyzoo, buckshot, then production from pete rock (he’s releasing an album with smif n wesun in september), 9th wonder (releasing an album with skyzoo in october) and marco polo, prince po would be a good feature too coz they’re work as Organized Konfusion is sick

  29. IS black mlk producing at all on this album. I really hope so. Track is alright

  31. I love Monch! I really did his style. Liking the verses, but I find the hook annoying on the first couple listens.

    J4KeM0ney said this on July 9th, 2010 at 7:03 pm

  32. well pharaohe follows his tradition of unconventional sounding singles, but unlike simon says, the light, push, lets go, body baby, this song isnt that good. It will pass if the rest of the lp is better. production was weird and pharaohe didnt ride it well, singing was OK

    leutrim rexhaj said this on July 9th, 2010 at 7:10 pm

  33. Im not really feelin this track! That kick is way too loud and this diamond beat is not good at all.Sounds like that wack beat he submitted for ED.OG’S project with pete rock.

    ostrange said this on July 9th, 2010 at 7:39 pm

  34. The sound quality is poor, bootleg quality. I’m sure it’ll sound just perfect by the time the album or whatever comes out. LOL @ cat’s critiquing Diamond’s sonics & Monch’s flow & lyrics. These are legends, people! You come to them, they don’t come to you.

  36. Good looking out on this one. It’s always good to hear some new Pharoah over Diamond’s beats. PEace and GOD BLESS

  37. meh, the beats pretty wack, but pharaoh is nice so i could dig it…

  38. Complacent is a fuckin retard.

    Anyway…The beat ruined the song for me.

  39. Lyrics = divine, beat = epitome of meh

  40. LMAO @ Complacent’s “Not bad for a debut” and then giving Pharoahe advice on how to get a new artist buzz …

    Great track, can’t wait for this project.
