Review: On PTSD: Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Pharoahe Monch continues the story he began telling on his prior LP, W.A.R. (We Are Renegades), his third studio album and first independent release. The Queens emcee narrates, in both literal and metaphoric ways, the trials and tribulations of an independent artist who is at war with the music industry and the struggle of the black male experience in America. In a 2012 interview, the rapper explained the connections between the two projects beyond their titles: "the W.A.R.album was like, I'm going to battle against the machine, I'm doing this independently. I'm putting some things out that I learned and I'm going to expose the music industry. PTSD is the result of me doing that, where I am emotionally now. It's similar to how someone comes back, from war and is stricken by re-adjusting to a regular situation." Now reissued via his very own W.A.R. media, it's clear that this is a war that Monch has not stopped waging.
