Pharoahe Monch Joins Duck Down For New Album W.A.R
AllHipHop.com has confirmed that Pharoahe Monch’s upcoming third solo LP W.A.R. (We Are Renegades) has found a home with Duck Down Records.
Originally, Monch announced last September that he would be leaving his previous label SRC to distribute W.A.R. through his own imprint, W.A.R. Media.
At the time, he cited the overall decline of the music industry as reason to forego a major label deal.
But with premier indie label Duck Down, Monch feels he has secured the distribution and creative control needed to make W.A.R. a success.
As heard on his last LP Desire (2007), Monch explained he will continue exploring spiritual elements while maintaining the high level lyricism his fans have come to expect since his 1991 debut with Organized Konfusion.
“I’m incredibly excited about my upcoming release W.A.R. (We Are Renegades) and my new partnership between my company W.A.R. Media, LLC, and Duck Down Music,” Monch told AllHipHop.com. “This album deals with conflicts and resolutions of the spirit, the soul, the government, and the industry among other things.”
Pharoahe Monch talked about the album at last year’s Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival.
