Black Thought Has Released His 1st Ever Solo Project & It’s Everything (Audio)




Black Thought has partnered with 9th Wonder to release a project outside of his award-winning, critically-acclaimed work with The Roots.

Beyond his consistent, yet demanding gig with the hardest-working band in show business, including a daily spot on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon along with an acting career, the man born Tariq Trotter has often avoided the spotlight by choice. That all changed when Thought made a late 2017 appearance on Funkmaster Flex’s HOT 97 freestyle platform. Going off the rails, the South Philadelphia product demonstrated why he deserves to be cemented atop many Heads’ best MC lists.
Now Thought teams with 9th Wonder and his Soul Council for Streams Of Thought, Vol. 1. Grammy Award-winning 9th is also said to be at work on The Roots’ next LP and has made big noise with Tariq two years ago alongside Styles P in “Making A Murderer,” which is included in the five-song project. Meanwhile, the Soul Council presently includes Khrysis (of The Away Team), Nottz, Eric G., Kash, E Jones, and Reflection Eternal’s Hi-Tek.
If Kanye West releases his eighth album later today as reported, June 1 may grow to be a memorable day in Hip-Hop history. It may join the annals that include July 2, 1996 (Nas’ It Was Written and De La Soul’s Stakes Is High), September 11, 2007 (50 Cent’s Curtis and Kanye West’s Graduation), and June 18, 2013 (Kanye West’s Yeezus, J. Cole’s Born Sinner, and Mac Miller’s Watching Movies With The Sound Off).

Fortnite's Greasy Grove Treasure Map: Where To Find The Treasure

There's a new treasure map available in  Fortnite: Battle Royale.  This time you'll find the map tucked away in Greasy Grove as one of Season 4, Week 5's challenges. This is the first time during Season 4 for the challenges to drop on Thursday morning rather than Tuesday morning. The Greasy Grove treasure map comes on the heels of yesterday's v4.3 update. If you want to find the treasure this week, you can either head to Greasy Grove and search for the map, or you can read this guide which will lead you right to it. If you look closely you'll see this image almost resembles a face. Turn it so that the compass is facing north and you'll see it's the Evil Lair near Snobby Shores. The nefarious base, which was added as part of Season 4's mysterious villains vs superheroes theme, is just to the north-east of Snobby Shores, and the treasure itself can be found right on the outside 'nose.' Grab the treasure and you'll add 10...

7 Silent Signs Stress is Hurting Your Relationship

Between the demands of parenting, financial woes, and the everyday drudgery of maintaining a household, stress is unavoidable in a long-term relationship. But it doesn't have to ruin it. You feel like you don't have any time to yourself Sometimes, it's too easy to get so caught up in your daily routine that you forget to make room for some me-time. If you find that you become overwhelmed too easily and don't have time to do the things you want, that's a clear sign you're stressed.

Ida Lundgren and Bianca Van Damme Could Easily Kick Your Butt!

If there were ever two fathers whose daughters would be genetically programmed to kick butt, those would be Jean Claude Van Damme and Dolph Lundgren – two of the most badass actors-slash-martial-artists of our time. They have both taught their little daughters how to defend themselves and look fantastic while doing it. Let’s look at Dolph and Ida first Just like Dolph’s character in Rocky IV, Ivan Drago, his 21-year-old daughter Ida was asked to show off her amazing skills on the boxing ring as well. And, boy, did she deliver! In this photoshoot for Muscle&Fitness, Dolph is probably showing Ida some secret moves and teaches her about the weak spots and how important the footwork is. Maybe he even told her how to beat Sylvester Stallone. Or maybe I’m imagining thing. These days Ida is an aspiring young model, but she’s got a long way to go to be as popular as her dad. She may look like a frail girl most of the time, but don’t let her cute looks fool you! Ida can and...
