Black Thought (born '''Tariq Trotter''') is the lead MC of the Philadelphia -based Hip Hop group The Roots . Although nowhere near the most popular performer in hip-hop, Black Thought and the Roots have a solid and devoted following. Thought, who co-founded The Roots with drummer ?uestlove (Ahmir Thompson), is widely considered one of the most underrated MCs of all time. Black Thought and ?uestlove are credited by many modern-day movementarians in diverse communities throughout the United States with their ability to infuse a sense of integrity and self-dignity in the way young people see themselves. Black Thought featured on the track 'X-Ecutioner Style' on Linkin Park 's second album Reanimation and on certain tracks in Sergio Mendez' recent album, "Timeless." In early 2006, Black Thought and DJ Danger Mouse began working on a yet to be titled collaborative record. |
