Pharoahe Monch's landmark 1999 debut single on Rawkus Records. "Simon Says" explodes with aggressive East Coast energy powered by an iconic Godzilla-inspired horn sample, while "Behind Closed Doors" offers a darker, slower counterpoint. Both tracks produced by Monch himself, introducing his solo sound following Organized Konfusion's breakup. This 12-inch features multiple versions: clean, explicit, instrumental, and acapella for both sides.
