He was doing alot of that singing type rap, first time I heard it I was like wtf?..I even doublechecked to see if I had the right album...lol.Quote:

I'd definately recommend listening/downloading first.Quote:

Commons new album might be his worst to date, i mean its not awful and production wise its near perfect, but its like common sense on autopilot lyrically. I was kind of disappointed but at least Kanyes beats make up for it.
Aight, it has a fresh sound to it, but I thought it was a bit too much humpty bumpty bleep bleep if you know what I mean, nice if you have good speakers but not really special in an artistic sense.
Didn't hear it all the way though, I stopped at the track with the kids voices and guns (I work at a pretty commercial record store, don't think customers will like that).
The Common album is indeed pretty much auto pilot, I enjoy listening to it though.
Just call it a boner album...Quote:

True, I feel the same way after listening to it.Quote:

Theres not alot of charisma there with them.
I mean, I gotta be in the mood for music like this...
but yeah the production is on point. I expected more from that 36 Mafia collab but the joint with Rick Ross surprised me.
Average album that can def. be forgotten... maybe pulled up years later for 20 minutes of reflection and thats about it.
