Organized Konfusion

About Organized Konfusion

Coming across at times goofy and nostalgic, but at most times unrelentingly serious, Organized Konfusion, the duo of Prince Poetry and Pharoahe Monch, gained instant underground celebrity in the early-1990s with its brash, cerebral brew of hip-hop. While for some the act is best remembered for the quasi-novelty single “Who Stole the Last Piece of Chicken?” which received heavy rotation on BET, the bulk of the act’s critically lauded work is much darker and introspective, tackling issues from angles unseen before or since. While Pharoahe Monch’s solo forays were few and far between, his distinctive voice delivering multi-syllabic flow has made him one of hip-hop’s legendary mystic MCs.
