Cassper Nyovest has already raked up a number of international features and now the rapper could soon add another name to his growing list: that of The Root’s musician Black Thought. Cassper‚ who has previously worked with American artists DJ Drama‚ Casey Veggies‚ Talib Kweli and The Game‚ hinted at a possible collaboration with the legendary Black Thought in a post on Tuesday.Posting a picture of the pair on set of the Jimmy Fallon Show in New York‚ Cassper revealed that he had been invited to the show by Black Thought and that they had spoken about “getting in studio later on today.”A “star-struck” Cassper also recounted how much meeting and working with his idol means to him. “I met one of my all-time favourite Mcees and he was as humble as I believed he would be‚” he wrote.“I remember listening to ‘Don't say nothing’ in a shack we used to call Family Tree Studios. We would listen to this song everyday trying to figure out what he was saying on the chorus and then we started decoding the verses. Anyway‚ I met dude and I was star struck.”..
