The classic album featured guest appearances by Q-Tip from A Tribe Called Quest and O.C., with guest production by Buckwild and Rockwilder. In 1998, the album was included as one of The Source’s 100 Best Rap Albums. In an era where flexing original styles was mandatory to gain respect, few hip-hop groups were more respected than Organized Konfusion. The Queens-based duo of Pharoahe Monch and Prince Po shined brightest on their 1994 sophomore LP “Stress: The Extinction Agenda,” which is receiving a reissue to mark its 30th Anniversary.

Backed by dark, bass-heavy, and jazzy production, “Stress…” showcased Pharoahe and Po’s dynamic and ever-shifting rhyme styles and electric chemistry from start to finish, creating an album that is an undisputed classic among hardcore Hip Hop fans.

The deluxe triple-vinyl includes full album instrumentals, non-album bonus tracks, plus a stunning tri-fold gatefold jacket featuring contemporaneous liner notes by Jeff Chang (originally published in 1994) and newly unearthed archival photos from B+. The deluxe CD double-disc edition includes full album instrumentals, non-album bonus tracks, plus stunning, newly unearthed archival photos from B+. The album’s first-ever official reissue on Cassette, with bonus tracks including the rare Buckwild Remix of “Bring it On,” as well as the remix of “Stress” featuring and produced by Large Professor.
