Pharoahe Monch Taps Busta Rhymes To Direct Video

Busta Rhymes has been spending plenty of time in front of the camera lens as of late, both in videos, and in the shooting of the upcoming "Shaft" remake. Last week, the rapper-actor took time out to step behind the camera for Pharoahe Monch, who tapped Busta to direct the clip for his new single, "Simon Says.

The song is currently at number four on "Billboard" magazine's "Hot Rap Singles" chart and can also be found on "Internal Affairs," the forthcoming first solo album from Monch, a former member of the hip-hop crew Organized Konfusion.

Busta isn't just directing videos for Monch: he will also guest on the album, as will Redman, Method Man, Canibus, M.O.P., Common, Talib Kweli and Lady Luck.

Due in stores on October 19, the album features production by DJ Scratch, Diamond, Baby Paul, Lee Stone, The Alchemist, and Monch himself.
