Black Milk - The Matrix ft. Pharoahe Monch, Sean Price & DJ Premier
Artist: Black Milk
Featuring: Pharoahe Monch , Sean Price
Producer: Black Milk
Album: Tronic
Label: Computer Ugly
Tronic is shaping up to be the sonic equivalent to what Tron was to video game nerds in the early 80’s. On The Matrix, the second Booth-featured cut off the new album due out in stores on October 28, Black Milk morphs into Neo (‘The One,’ not the R&B singer). With verses from Pharoahe Monch and Sean Price, and cuts from the legendary DJ Premier, this record provides silver-screen music for all to enjoy. Price goes in as “Clark Kent without the glasses on,” showing why he’s the hood’s favorite superstar, and an equally impressive Pharoahe Monch complements the Detroit MC/producer by expounding on the ins and outs of The Matrix. In the wake of Dirty D’s lost solider, J. Dilla, Milk continues to impress.
This song first appeared on the

Props to the dude for producing his own work, I always give respect for multi-talents. The song is a little weak to me, but it still isn't bad. Chorus is catchy, Pharoahe Monch rips it apart, the rest are pretty good. In rotation type of joint, good kind of street/mixtape record. Coulda been better.

Black Milk's prodcution was mad ill! He also snapped off with the first verse. I'm loving the hook. It's real hip hop catchy! "You couldn't hang if you was Ving Rhymes in Rosewood" (HOT LINE). Pharoahe Monch is beasting! Price did his thing too. This definitely deserves banger status. Premier always holding it down. I will agree, it could have used a little something more, but it's was good.

Hot beat, hot rhymes. It's a shame that so many of our members get scared of listening to or enjoying unknown or underground hip-hop. Please, friends, prove that statement wrong.

I'm writing down many songs today...I'll have to start a wild download lol! I like the production on this, but I honestly wouldn't listen to it again. He doesn't fit the beat to my ears! He doesn't rap bad but he bores me

this is the street banger of the year. I heard the DJ cutting this up at the Charles Hamilton event and it as fire.
Ive heard that this was actually produced by DJ Premier. Any truth to this?

It sounded better (on paper) than it sounded to my ears. I still think they are all talented individually, but like Byron Crawford said, this track could have and should have been way better.
