Common "Be" Appreciation thread!

[Toe Jay Simpson]

Common’s pen has NEVER been that hungry before or after

He’d be a GOAT if he just could have kept that same energy for 3 or 4 more

 

[Rev Leon Lonnie Love]

BE..........eternal

 

[Negus in Detroit]

Classic album

 

[Dilltastic VolWon(derful)]

Just had this album come up as a suggestion.

This is still amazing

We miss this era of backpack rap

 

[A Pimp Named Slickback]

I made a playlist of songs about following your dreams 2 years ago called Dreamer. It's Your World is the first song I play from it every shift day before work

 

[3xplatinum]

They say


when the kids said what they wanted to be and one of them said "A duck"

 

[KingsOfKings]

 

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

18 years ago, seems like yesterday


It's a shame what happened to breh. He's Corporate Common now.

 

[Batsute]

Never looking back or too far in front of me,
The present is a gift, I just wanna … be

 

[martin_van_nostrand]

It’s Your World is my favourite track of this along with Be. Absolute classic

They say


when the kids said what they wanted to be and one of them said "A duck"

Sounds like something I would’ve said as a kid

 

[Heafcliffe]

One Day It'll All Make Sense is really under appreciated

Yea that's my second favorite

"Envision in the hereafter..."

 

[BaKardi Slang]

 

[Roland Coltrane]

agreed

 

[Roland Coltrane]

Be is more cohesive imo

furthermore, lyric for lyric and bar for bar One Day It'll All Make Sense is better too

 

[doublejump]

I forgot about this. They don't make em like that anymore.
