Released just before his landmark solo album Internal Affairs, Agent Orange was a warning shot — Monch spitting dense, explosive rhymes over a menacing beat, laced with urgency and venom. Its militant energy and lyrical firepower made it an instant underground classic, circulating heavily on mixtapes and radio shows of the late 90s.

A definitive Rawkus-era 12", Agent Orange captures the transition of Pharoahe Monch from Organized Konfusion innovator to a powerhouse solo MC, standing as one of the fiercest and most essential tracks in his catalogue.
