I'm biased as that was the first Common I listened to (my pops bumped his shyt all the time but that doesn't count) as it dropped at an age where I really started to understand and appreciate music and form my own tastes.(Was 14).Be didn't hold up too well to be brutally honest
My first introduction to Common was Jesus Piece with Game and YeI have great respect for Common. Be is a classic to me. He's just not really a typical rapper, he might not be the rapper who kills his features, and he does a lot of side projects too, maybe that's why he is never in the GOAT discussion
we're really fukked as a genre if people are shytting on common
