Them shits was dope!
.
I do a lot of wanting and wishing and hoping and what-ifing on these boards
.
I forget that this is a good place to be grateful to the artists for fulfilling those wishes

I know I get fickle as a music fan when projects don't turn out like I want them to.

So, it makes it more important to show props for the artists who put out dope shit. Especially those who do so consistently at a high level like Thought.

Haven’t even listened yet and I’m appreciative

...and I still havent sat down with them smh (and I KNOW they're dope)

Appreciative, and just as thankful that he has chosen to work with producers that compliment him…Peace??!!?

Man he's been blessing us these last few years. Thought's on an incredible run right now

Big K.R.I.T., Yasiin Bey, Rick Ross, Curren$y and more are scheduled to appear on upcoming Black Thought album Streams of Thought Vol. 4.
Black Thought has more heat on the way. While The Roots frontman is releasing collaborative album Glorious Game with El Michels Affair on Friday (April 14), he’s planning a forthcoming solo project Streams of Thought Vol. 4.

Produced entirely by Detroit musician 14KT, Streams of Thought Vol. 4 is slated to feature Rick Ross, JID, Redman, Fabolous, Big K.R.I.T., Curren$y, Pharoahe Monch and Tobe Nwigwe.

“I never knew dude. I wasn’t familiar with his work. But I’ve got lots of connections to Detroit — family, longtime friends. DJ Jazzy Jeff does these retreats at his home annually where he flies in writers, producers from all over the world,” Thought recently told The Fader about 14KT.

Also appearing on the LP is Black Star member Yasiin Bey (formerly known as Mos Def), on a song that Thought says will “represent a seismic shift in the game.” Apparently he has been sitting on the track for a few years.

“KT sent me this beat to a song called ‘Blaaaaack!,’ and that became the first song I recorded, me and Yasiin Bey, on Streams of Thought Vol. 4,” he recently told The FADER. “It’s a timeless classic. It’s been in my vault for a couple years already.

He continued, “It could come out at any point in time, and it’ll still represent a seismic shift in the game just because of how powerful it is and what it speaks to. I was like, ‘Yo, if this is what the process is gonna be like, let’s keep it rolling, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.’”

Just two different sectors for rap I didn't think would cross.

Once Vol. 4 drops I think that will be the last Black Thought project that we know about....wonder who's next?

>Once Vol. 4 drops I think that will be the last Black Thought

Hopefully, Black Milk.. or Inflo.

The Madlib or Alchemist album pairings seem almost cliche' at this point, but I wouldn't be mad at either of these 2.

Wouldn't even need many outsiders either, just Little Simz, Kid Sister and of course Cleo Sol and that's a can't miss.

Since Kid Sister popped up on Cheat Codes I'd like to think Black tapped in right?

Would love to her a joint album.

14KT is a favorite of mine. Been listening to his instrumental album from last year a lot lately. Always checking for anything from him, but to hear Black Thought over his beats?!? Definitely looking forward to that.

Features are crazy

14kt! Can’t wait…

Hadn’t thought about that in many years.

I can’t remember what OKP thought of it but it was amazing for me

I loved Kool On, Make My, and One Time.

Second half of the album kinda lost me.

... really motivated him, made him realize he's way more important and great than he even realized. Thank god that happened. This has been a great and long overdue run.

don't forgot about those J. Period mixtapes.

He and J. Period released the James Brown themed tape in 2020 and the Dilla one last year. So yeah he's going crazy with the releases right now. We are definitely lucky to witness it all

I've been waiting on the official version of this for at least 15 years: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-jvGQiFOl8

Can't believe Inell Young's OG isnt even on Spotify.

Either way that Masterpiece Theatre jawn would have had some gems on it. I still have the Hardware 12 somewhere

I wore a groove in my MP3 player, playing that mixtape. Thought was a monster.
