About Black Thought

Hometown

Philadelphia, PA, United States

Born

3. Oktober 1971

Genre

Hip-Hop/Rap

Als Mitglied der einflussreichen Conscious-Rap-Gruppe The Roots gilt Black Thought als einer der talentiertesten und prägnantesten Rapper seiner Zeit. Der 1971 in Philadelphia geborene Musiker gründete die Crew 1987 mit Drummer Questlove, 1993 erschien ihr Debütalbum Organix. Über die Jahre veröffentlichte die Band zahlreiche erfolgreiche Platten wie Things Fall Apart (1999), Game Theory (2006) und How I Got Over (2010), aber auf Solopfade begab sich Black Thought nur als Gastrapper auf Tracks von Kollegen wie DJ Krush, Common, The Pharcyde oder den Dilated Peoples. Erst 2018 veröffentlichte er die beiden Solo-EPs Streams of Thought, Vol. 1 und Vol. 2. 2020 schloss er die Trilogie mit dem dritten Teil Cane & Able ab. 2022 erschien sein gemeinsames Album mit Danger Mouse: Cheat Codes.

Black Thought has also released music as a member of The Roots.
