Black Thought's solo debut album was intended to be released in 2006 and titled, "Masterpiece Theater" -- Most of those recording eventually became The Roots album "Phrenology," however, several of the tracks from the album that were never released leaked to the internet over the years. The Masterpiece Theater EP is a collection of those tracks.

Here's the initial press release for the album:

"The difference between a Black Thought album and a Roots album is the texture, the instrumentation," the rapper said recently. "The Roots albums are completely live instruments; the Black Thought album is different [types of] production." Among other producers cutting tracks for Masterpiece Theatre — which will feature no live instruments — are Pete Rock; Slum Village's Jay Dee; Japanese trip-hop master DJ Krush, who produced the "teaser" single "Hardware," which came out in November; and Scott Storch, the Roots' original keyboardist, who provided the riff on Dr. Dre's 2000 hit "Still D.R.E." Also behind the boards are Hedrush, who produced several tracks on Dead Prez's Let's Get Free; Rockwilder, who produced the Mos Def-Pharoahe Monch-Nate Dogg collaboration "Oh No," from the various-artists album Lyricist Lounge 2; and Philly's Chaos."
