Common Electric Circus

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

The album doesn't flow right. But it has some gems on it. This album live tour was bananas... Kariem Riggins killed it

 

[A Friend of The People]

Years ahead of it's time. Would be considered futuristic even by todays standards. Paved the way for Andre 3000's current persona

Love or hate still had some good stand out tracks.

I travel the world with a black girl named becky, grand like auto theft three

Funny Dilla once mentioned in an interview he gave Comm a shytload of tracks that were in the same vein as Soul Power with the boom bap hip-hop element to them and he turned them all down.

feel the same way ... funny tho even common doesn't like the album

I truly don't think he dislike this album. It probably it got slammed so bad he mentally feels he doesn't like it. I feel deep down he liked it but the public didn't accept so he just says he dislike it to make it look like hey it was just a phase.

yo man, how'd it go?

This album, Tribe's Beats, Rhymes, & Life, and Q-Tip's debut solo album Amplified got demolished when they came out, but I think these three albums are kinda a group

Ill try tomorrow lol. i actually went ahead and am bumpin the 2 albums after electric circus, - be and finding forever. not sure if my ears are prepared.

 

[bordeaux]

i loved this album since i first heard it. i wish he still rhymed like this. i wouldnt say com ever fell off but he's been on cruise control a bit since like, finding forever. if this album came out today it wouldve fit right in and have been far better accepted. its like the definition of ahead of its time when u got people gushing over an album like tpab...listening to lwfc 1st would hav made more sense.

 

[Insensitive]

Crazy album.
Hip Hop wasn't ready for it, same way some cats scoffed at TPAB.
If that dropped a decade ago it likely would've got the same reaction but time has
opened ears.

Aquarius is my favorite ever Common track. Com spitting his ass of with Erykah on the hook

 

[Umi]

style wyld like my man common after erykah

 

[DJ Mart-Kos]

Yeah, this album has some great bangers on it.
A couple of wack joints to though but still a good album overall i think.

 

[FKEMINEM]

style wyld like my man common after erykah

Whats with erykah badus p*ssy that makes every motherfukker turn into some hippy ass motherfukker

And to op, this was a wack ass album luckily he came back with the classic that is known as BE

This shyt would sound amazing live.

Com, Jill Scott with the Roots backing.

:favre:

This album was so epic live. Never liked it until I seen Common perform it with Kareem Riggins on the drums and a band. He absolutely destroyed it. I knew that is how it was meant to be heard. It never translated well on record as it did on stage.
