Com in his prime was a fukking beast. Young cats weren't around back when he ripped shyt do this more peaceful, calm flow Com is all they know. I can still appreciate his grown up shyt but Com hasn't been rugged since around like water for chocolate imo and even then he had turned the corner to the safe for white people and coffee shop Com.

Common is still >>>>>>>>>>>>J. Cole though regardless. shyt "The bytch In Yoo" alone murks J. Cole's entire career.

and kinda off-topic but all the love that "Be" gets is so fukkin fake. i hate how because kanye and jay dee produced it and it was supposedly "Common's big comeback" after he dropped Electric Circus (which is unfairly hated-on but that's a whole other thread) that it gets deemed a classic when it's not. If any Com lp deserves that status it's Resurrection, not Be.

This is the first time I have ever heard anyone say anything negative about Common's voice, are you serious? Dude could have put that voice in any entertainment lane, it was made for hip hop.

If Common bores you, his lyrics went over your head.

Common trash. Typical of common fans being nas Stan's. it's always connected

You really so mad today that you have to take shots at someone simply because he has an Illmatic avatar?

Spark an L and chill. I like Nas. I like Common. Don't shoot.

"I dumb down for my audience and double my dollars
They criticize me for it yet they all yell "Holla"
If skills sold, truth be told, I'd probably be
Lyrically, Talib Kweli, Truthfully
I wanna rhyme like Common Sense
(But I did five Mil)
I ain't been rhyming like Common since"

Truth be told indeed (prime Jay Z was the Dhali Lama of rap) :myman:

I thought it was generally agreed upon that Common has 3 classics Resurrection, Like water for Chocolate, and Be?

So Illmatic holds no weight? Please lol because that picture is what made you throw me into some kind of "low IQ" category. Now you're just contradicting yourself.

I digress. To each his own.
