Pharoahe Monch inked a deal with Rawkus Records after the duo's break up, and released a highly acclaimed solo album, "Internal Affairs", in 1999. The album just missed a debut in the Top 40 on the "Billboard" 200 chart, and spawned the Hot 100 hit single "Simon Says". Pharoahe and Rawkus were met with a lawsuit over a "Godzilla" sample used in the track, which forced Rawkus to pull the album off the shelves, to be re-released without the single. The album was not re-released and remains out of print. OK partner Prince Po joined Pharoahe for an appearance on the track "God Send". Other album guests included Canibus, M.O.P., Busta Rhymes, Apani B, Common, Talib Kweli, Redman, Method Man, Lady Luck and Shabaam Sahdeeq.
