Army of the Pharaohs - First Ever Concert - 1998

Original members 7L, Esoteric, Vinnie Paz (going by Icon The Verbal Hologram), Jus Allah (Jedi Mind Tricks), and Virtuoso all performing together for the first time as Army of the Pharaohs in an hour long concert! (missing was Bahamadia and Chief Kamachi). This is the first time these artists performed as Army of the Pharaohs, performing both of tracks of their then new single "The Five Perfect Exertions" and "War Ensemble".

At the end is a massive freestyle featuring: K-the-I??? and Nabo Rawk (of Porn Theatre Ushers)
You can feel the energy in the room that holds a max of under 200 people, as underground hip hop was starting its evolution and fans were hungry for new sounds. Shout out to Brick Records who were running the scene/ sounds of that time. What an insane night!

From the 8mm video archives of underground hip hop founder, Adam "Quest" Walder.
