Pharoahe Monch recently spoke about a time he was dissed by Kanye West.
“[Talib Kweli] was having this party one time and he was throwing these parties in Brooklyn,” Monch says in an interview with VladTV. “I was like, ‘I’ma get fresh for the night.’ [I] showered and threw on my cologne. I had just bought this fresh shearling jacket. I had on my new shearling. I’m walking up to the spot and I see the Range [Rover]. Somebody beeps the horn. I walk over to the Range Rover. I’m like, ‘Oh shit. That’s Kweli.’ Who’s in the driver’s seat? It’s Kanye. I’m like, ‘What up? What up?’ Gave them the five.
“[Kanye] touches my coat,” Monch continues. “He was like ‘Yeah. That’s Diesel right?’ I was like, ‘Yeah. How’d you know?’ He was like, ‘I had that shit last year.’ I said, ‘This mothafucker, man. What the fuck?'”
The narration of the incident is accompanied by animation below.
Pharoahe Monch and Kanye West collaborated on Talib Kweli’s “Guerrilla Monsoon Rap” off of 2002’s Quality.
Earlier this year, Kanye West dissed Sway Calloway by saying that he got him his first television set. Sway later explained the incident on his MTV Rap Fix show.
“This is my first TV,” Sway said, sitting beside the television set that Kanye West gave him. “We met in 2001. Back in 2001, me and Kanye West would hang out from time to time… Kanye is one of the most talented visionaries we have in this business. So, him inviting me to see his house? Of course I did it…When I opened the bathroom door, which was probably the size of a closet, the first thing I saw was this hunk of a TV sitting in Kanye West’s sink.
“I thought it was abstract art,” Sway continued. “I asked ‘Ye, ‘Yo, what’s up with that TV in your sink?’ He responded, ‘Yo dog, it’s 36 inches. This TV is too small to put in my living room. It’s embarrassing. So I hide it in my sink because the TV is embarrassing.’ Being from Oakland, I asked Kanye, ‘What are you going to do with the TV? You going to throw it away?’ He said, ‘Yep.’ I said, ‘No you not, homie. You grab one end of the TV. I’ma grab the other.’ We took the TV to my car.”

Vlad the parasite swagger jacking wit the hiphop story animation.
even back then it seems kanye was only attracted to well dressed men and he was trying to school monch
LOL! But keeping it real, Kanye can never disrespect Pharoahe! Kanye’s best work can’t touch ANYTHING Monch has ever done. Ye used to be something special, but even then Monch was always One Up on Kanye.
Simon says who gives a fuck.
phaorahe monch is a homo. he is literally a dick sucking queer. he rolls around with a pack of hip hop homos and jean grae. he was dead nice back in the day but he’s basically out the closet now and completely out of gas creatively and musically. his last project stunk and he does nothing but disappoint these days.
Walk off a bridge you lame ass troll. W.A.R. was a dope album.
LOL at the failed journalism, taking a story from Monch & mixing it with the Sway story so HHDX can get over 100 comments and I’m the 6th one so far.
THEY HAVE NO CONTENT, NOR ABILITY TO DEVELOP A STORY… THEY ALWAYS DO SHIT LIKE THIS
Sooooooooooooooo, why are u on this site again?….
It’s called constructive criticism anon#2, not my fault you’re not used to seeing comments like mine here because you always tend to see the spam & trolling immaturity.
Every article on this site is not a fail and there are videos, features, and music posted here. And it’s not a diss because Diesel didn’t make just one of the jackets, anyone with the money could buy one.
So with that I will ask, why are you here on this site?
I’M STILL ON THIS SITE CUZ I’M TOO LAZY TO LOOK FOR AND GET USED TO OTHER HIPHOP SITES…
you know whats funny? I put that question out there and purposely didn’t say who i was talkin to specifically to see which of you would respond, and u both did lol.
But @ anon#1, Im very familiar with seein comments like yours where its a person who always shits on a website, but is constantly on it. Now, i dont know if thats the case with u bcuz hhdx can let anyone post a comment without using a strict user name/identity. But i find those cats who do that funny…
@COCA, well, at least u honest with it, lol.
