Black Thought Says His New Song With Yasiin Bey Will Cause A 'Seismic Shift'

by Daryl Nelson

Lyric lovers should be getting excited because Black Thought is gearing up to drop his Streams of Thought Vol. 4 project.

Some of the features include Redman, Big K.R.I.T, Rick Ross, Curren$y, and Pharoahe Monch. Yasiin Bey, formerly known as Mos Def, is also on the album, and Thought said their song will change the game.

“[14]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,” Thought told The Fader. “It’s a timeless classic. It’s been in my vault for a couple years already ... 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.'”

Even though there hasn't been a release date for Streams of Thought Vol. 4, are you excited about it?
