There used to be more cats with more of a flow with more originality and musical style.

PHAROAHE MONCH: The biggest difference was back then, I was more of a fan. WHO?MAG: How do you feel about the rap industry now verse when Organized Konfusion was out? It’s just real old and not a safe record at all. I experimented vocally by singing on some things. Denaun Porter executive producing the record and The Alchemist on production. Not in a preachy way, but in a way of just let me bring you along the path that I am on. I feel a lot of that has been implemented in to the album. What makes it different is it’s a natural progression for me to grow spiritually, not even on a religious level, but a level where it’s just common sense and it’s natural. You get to experience that whether you ride with them or not. They get married, they get divorced, they fall in love, they get hurt, they go to jail, they experience so much and have transitions through life. That’s the beauty of following your favorite artist. PHAROAHE MONCH: I feel it has grown just like I have. WHO?MAG: So what’s going to make DESIRE different than INTERNAL AFFAIRS?

A friend of mine hit me up with some movie from a movie soundtrack. PHAROAHE MONCH: Just being an avid fan of monster movies. WHO?MAG: So how did the whole Godzilla theme come about? When working on the beat I was like “oh my god, this has an image to it that I have never felt before in hip-hop!” PHAROAHE MONCH: No, I didn’t expect that, but I did feel like it moved me in a way that I thought would translate to people well. WHO?MAG: Did you expect the single “Simon Says” to be such a huge hit? I had a couple of choices, but this seemed to be the best fit for the kind of music that I wanted to put out. I came back last year and was basically looking to land a new deal. PHAROAHE MONCH: I was recently release from my deal with Rawkus/Geffen and toured and played a lot of new music. WHO?MAG: How did you get with Universal Records? It went from high school, to the lunch tables, to a record deal. We were originally just doing it for the love. We let some people hear it and they told us it was pretty damn good. PHAROAHE MONCH: We met in high school and started just doing demos and it turned out to be more than we expected. WHO?MAG: How did you get with Organized Konfusion? I tried to use Tower of Power and use some of the same horns and vocals to give it some of the same feel. The sample is from the mid-seventies from a gospel song, so I tried to implement the same type of feel spiritually and inspirationally. PHAROAHE MONCH: To me, it sounds like something straight from the mid-seventies.
