W.A.R.

Also out this week is W.A.R. (We Are Renegades), the highly-anticipated new album from supa emcee Pharoahe Monch. The album features guest spots from Immortal Technique, Styles P, Phonte, Jean Grae and Royce Da 5'9" alongside production from Exile, Marco Polo, M-Phazes and Diamond. The album is a little hit-and-miss but from a lyrical standpoint Pharoahe proves he's still got it.
