OK I GOTTA TYPE THIS IN CAPS, THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE TRACK, MY MAN WENT EXTRA HARD. CHECK IT OUT
Sweetie, I beg your permission to ready your vision to Get up with this ROMANtic and make a better decision, Bombard you with vocal ‘game’ and steady insisting, but Honestly, my only aim is in heaven’s intentions… Words: I said them, I meant them, to spread the momentum; to Bring a smile to your face and help you weather the symptoms of the Struggles of everyday, and I’m prepared ready-made, so When I speak to touch you heart, don’t regret and forget them… Been loving you from the start of our melodies written, Steadily spitting my song strong as a medic’s prescription cause of the Beautifully Unique Divine Diva Your are…but I wanna Be a better B.U.D.D.Y. than Musiq, and do more than Juslisen, I want to explore this vixen and implore this Whispering in your ear til your drawers are twisting, and Keep an eye out for when your worry’s sensing then Keep the other as spare just for MORE attention, Cause I could observe you with my eyes closed, and behind the Blindfold still see that your glory’s risen… That’s why the nights go by with your light shone high, Sparking sunshine through your striking resemblance 8)
Perfection is jealous; the only goddess made, I need Roy Orbison’s shades to view her vivid dazzling, but my Eyes are always up for a brilliant glow that’s challenging… Thank her for showing me how and what really love is, Thank her for showing me how and what really love is, You know I had to say it twice to do it any Justice…her Word choice reminds me of sons and daughters, she’s Open water that quenches the thirst for martyrs… My eyes have seen the glory of the coming of this girl, I Adamantly observe her like another world, so Never mind the blinding, she easily mesmerizes and Captivates me with her solar eclipse, the shining that Has me licking my lips, washing out my eyes in hopes that I could look upon her with pure vision, (tries the soap)… Loving a prize as inexplicably wondrous as Describing to a blind man what each and every color is

A producer, lyricist, turntablist, and designer from THEE Winston-Salem, NC, Pharoahe’ ManC (Roman) stands primed and ready to represent for the Middle East. His production company, Knowledge Meets Nature (KMN) has released the first of many projects to come in 2009, starting with the “Desperate Measures” EP.
Radioactive Man Snippet
“Primarily the purpose of the project was to raise money for J Dilla’s family. I know their estate has been tied up and his mother and daughters have needed help. It just seemed simple to put out a project and donate the money to the legal problems. But I couldn’t find a way of getting permission to use his songs, and I couldn’t sell the EP in good conscious without getting the go ahead from them. It’s still in my thoughts and prayers though. I won’t forget about it til it’s resolved.”
Nevertheless, the EP is available for free download. Labeled as a ‘mini-album’, “Desperate Measures” takes five J Dilla instrumentals and transforms them into a concept album, debuting Roman’s unique style of poetic lyricism:
“and when I’m sugar free like ‘babe, you forgetting me?’ She just replies like ‘muah times infinity’… We make love like music: a symphony of Parts contributing…our hearts at the centerpiece”…
Also what stands out is his definitive vocal tone, an asset he explains came via an arduous process.
Buttermilk_2 snippet
“It’s weird, it took me SO long to find my voice. My favorite voice coming up in Hip Hop was Ghostface Killah’s. When I was like 13 and was writing all these songs, my voice fit the lyrics cause I sort of wrote them from a Ghostface cadence. But then after puberty hit and my voice changed, I was lost in the game.”
So for years, Roman stuck primarily to the beats, and while he kept writing, he wouldn’t step in front of the mic and spit for some years. Then he found an album that solved his problems.
“I got a copy of MF DOOM’s ‘Operation: Doomsday’ and it unlocked my voice. I was listening to DOOM and he kind of reminded me of a baritone Ghostface with his delivery. With him I found a cadence that allowed me to speak just as passionately as Ghost, but one where I didn’t have to fight with my own voice…after DOOM I was able to rap much more easily…I could finally hear myself on beats.”
Date with Destiny Snippet
He took that momentum and worked on a summer project in 2006, “Roman Noodles”. Here he borrowed beats from J Dilla, 9th Wonder, Quincy Jones, and Georgia Anne Muldrow to experiment with his delivery and word play. Now in 2009 he has reemerged with “Desperate Measures” and says that there is much more music on the way.
“I’ve never stopped writing. I have about 5 more mini-albums planned and about 20 full length projects in store. Even when I wasn’t recording because of my voice I knew that one day I would find it, and I prepared by writing as many songs as possible.”
One of the forthcoming mini-albums “5ive and 13irteen” will be available next month, appropriately on Friday the 13th. The project pairs Roman with his “DM” partner Gemini 5ive, who will take responsibility over the beats. Again, the project will consist of only 5 songs.
Listen Up! Demo Snippet
“I figure that when I get the privilege of doing music full time and can live off the music [we] make, then we’ll be more than happy to make full length albums. But right now-I’m a full time student, and a full time employee, and as painful as it is, I only can do music part time for now. Hopefully that will be changing soon though.”
And soon he and KMN may be able to make a name for themselves, yet Roman insist that you don’t confuse him with another, more prominent “Pharoahe’ M.” in Hip Hop.
“[Laughs] I am well aware of Pharoahe’ Monch and the similarity between his name and mine. All I can really say about that is before I was Pharoahe’ ManC, I was Chris Williams…so it seems like no matter what I was going to run into problems. No idea’s original I guess, but alike minds think great.”

This is a EP I was put on to by my folk Ferrari 110, this is hip hop at its finest, check it out. Peace
This group is for all of those who have supported and will support the inaugural release of KMN Music, "Desperate Measures", my first recorded promo album (also featuring Gemini 5ive) using J Dilla instrumentals. This album was made after hearing about the financial woes that J Dilla's (James Yancey's) family was facing as a result of his medical bills in his final days. Originally, I wanted to sell this project and donate half the proceeds to paying off those bills, but I can't legally sell this product yet. (Hopefully a commercial pressing will be available at a latter day and time to take care of those needs). Anyways thanks for stopping by, and the lyrics to all the songs are posted here as well
