It was released on June 1, 2018, by independent distributor Human Re Sources. Primarily produced by 9th Wonder, with one contribution from Khrysis of The Soul Council, it marks Black Thought's first solo release outside of his work with The Roots. The EP features guest appearances by Rapsody, Styles P and KIRBY. BackgroundBlack Thought originally planned to release his debut solo album, Masterpiece Theater, in 2000.[1][2] However, the album was shelved and most of its songs ended up on The Roots' Phrenology album in 2002.[1] Another album, Dangerous Thoughts, with producer Danger Mouse was also shelved.[2] On December 14, 2017, he performed a ten-minute freestyle on Hot 97, which quickly went viral and created a buzz for a potential solo project.[1][6] The following month, he revealed that he was working on an EP with producer 9th Wonder.[2] On May 25, 2018, the title of the EP and its release date were revealed.[3] The song "Making a Murderer", featuring Styles P, was previously released in 2016.[9] Critical reception{{Album ratings| MC = 81/100[4] |rev1 = HipHopDX |rev1score = 4.5/5[5] |rev2 = Pitchfork |rev2score = 7.5/10[6] |rev3 = Pretty Much Amazing |rev3score = B+[7] |rev4 = Rolling Stone |rev4score = {{rating|3.5|5}}[8] }} At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, the EP received an average score of 81, based on four reviews, indicating "universal acclaim".[4] Riley Wallace of HipHopDX hailed it as "one of the most exciting things to happen to Hip Hop in a long time", also stating, "With 9th's soulful production taking the place of The Roots, and features that compliment without under-performing or overtaking, the project delivers a healthy dose of social consciousness, braggadocios fare, and even a little subtle shade."[5] Pitchfork{{'}}s Brian Josephs called it "a small testament to his sustained excellence", while praising Black Thought's ability to thrill listeners "with internal rhymes and flow swaps that manage to fold years of experience and culture references into crisp narratives."[6] Mosi Reeves of Rolling Stone stated, "True to the title, he doesn't offer any choruses, just streams of verses that cover his own lyrical prowess, history and politics, and whatever else comes to mind", also noting the "spare and subtle" production, which "leaves the focus on Black Thought's words."[8] Commercial performanceStreams of Thought, Vol. 1 debuted at number 62 on the Billboard 200, with 9,864 album-equivalent units, which includes 7,978 in pure album sales.[9]Track listing{{tracklist| total_length = 17:15 | extra_column = Producer(s) | title1 = Twofifteen | writer1 = {{hlist|Tariq Trotter|Patrick Douthit}} | extra1 = 9th Wonder | length1 = 3:45 | title2 = 9th vs. Thought | writer2 = {{hlist|Trotter|Douthit}} | extra2 = 9th Wonder | length2 = 2:47 | title3 = Dostoyevsky | note3 = featuring Rapsody | writer3 = {{hlist|Trotter|Douthit|Marlanna Evans}} | extra3 = 9th Wonder | length3 = 3:53 | title4 = Making a Murderer | note4 = featuring Styles P | writer4 = {{hlist|Trotter|Douthit|David Styles}} | extra4 = 9th Wonder | length4 = 4:32 | title5 = Thank You | note5 = featuring KIRBY | writer5 = {{hlist|Trotter|Douthit|Kirby Dockery}} | extra5 = Khrysis | length5 = 2:18 }} Charts
