Pharoahe Monch’s New Group, Th1rt3en, Drops Single & Preps Album (@pharoahemonch)

Veteran hip-hop lyricist Pharoahe Monch has joined forces with drummer Daru Jones and acclaimed guitarist Marcus Machado to form the group Th1rt3en.

On November 11th they shared the single “Fight,” which is the first song from their upcoming album. The record is 100% authentic hip-hop and it reminds us why we fell inlove with Monch‘s style in the first place. With help from Cypress Hill, he lamented on the ongoing racial tension in America with particular emphasis on the judicial system.
