After Black Thought released a solo album in 2020 that went otherwise unnoticed and Danger Mouse took a hiatus from music in 2019, the two decided to team up and create Cheat Codes, an album that is characterized by its conscious lyricism and boom-bap production.Ĭheat Codes is an album with a heavy influence from ’90s east coast hip-hop reinvented into something that is much more palatable for a modern audience while still offering a sense of nostalgia and vanity. Both individuals are prolific figures within the underground hip-hop scene and have accrued a large and respected portfolio over their years in the industry.
Danger Mouse, a Los Angeles native, is a producer that has worked with some of the best names in music including and not limited to MF DOOM, Adele and Gorillaz. Philadelphia-based hip-hop artist Black Thought has had a hold on the underground hip-hop scene since the early ‘90s due to his involvement in hip-hop group The Roots.
