#12 | Danger Mouse & Black Thought | Cheat Codes
BMG

For Black Thought’s latest project Cheat Codes, he makes the inspired choice of collaborating with Brian “Danger Mouse” Burton. The result is the best non-Roots album of Thought’s career and one of Danger Mouse’s best hip-hop endeavors.

I honestly hope that moving forward, Black Thought develops a long-term emcee/producer relationship with Danger Mouse. The dynamic works well for this 40-minute endeavor, and it only seems to scratch the surface of more greatness to come. As enjoyable as it is to see Black Thought show his chemistry with a myriad of different producers, I believe that Black Thought and Danger Mouse have created something special here and can continue projects as virtuoso as Cheat Codes.
