[Patrick Kane]

Has some of Ye's best production and Common's best verses and it was released in the mid 2000's and although it was received pretty well and was successful commercially, I always thought it was somewhat underrated when talking about "modern" day hip hop classics. The way Ye' flipped some of those samples were hard and still sound fresh today and Common was just flowing on most of them. Go is still smooth as shyt, The Corner still rocks too, and you got introspective joints in Real People, It's Your World (1&2) and Love Is.... then just classic Common just straight up spitting on Be (Intro) and Chi-City. Album still has a lot of depth that resonates with today's current events. 10 years later and this is definitely a hip hop classic.

A classic to me. Great album but funny everytime I listen to Testify it just makes me realize how much Kanye wanted to sound like Rza, he pretty much copied almost everything the dude has done in the past. But anyways great album.
