I'm surprised No I.D. Didn't produce on here, was just looking at the production credits and no he's where to be seen. But Common is rapping pretty damn good on here so it's a win anyways.

this was more in the mould of LWFC type production so....the Soulquarians produced that shyt going for a similar vibe

Common & No I.D. made good music together, he's a dope producer

i think he's referring to the fact that No I.D. hasn't been on top form recently as evidenced by him producing all of Common's Nobody's Smiling album to limited success

but contrary to what people say I think his beats on Vince's Summertime '06 were really great

not on the last Common album tho

kareem riggins who produced this,is from the D and came up working with slum and dilla.

Detroit is really the only Midwest city with their own sound.

J dilla, black milk, Apollo brown, and this kareem guy all got that thing they do with the samples

I want to but just can't say that yet.. objectively speaking public enemy, jay-z, outkast, ghostface, and el-p all have equal or better catalogs than common if we only counting rappers who made more than 5 albums.. i would put him just underneath those 5 unless he releases another project of this caliber..
