Free Music Notes for Finding Forever
Free Music Review: Forever found.
Hit: 4 Stars
A nice set of tracks on here with a good flow to the cd. This was my first Common purchase and I still cannot figure out why. I definitley enjoyed the cd. Good lyrics and great vibe to it. Track 11 is my favorite. It portrays Commons persona perfectly, "Misunderstood."Free Music Review: A Few Good Songs But Nothing Special
Hit: 3 Stars
This CD had a few good songs but nothing special. I would purchase it again however, once again it was just average.Free Music Review: Lyrical onslaught
Hit: 5 Stars
People this is more than just prose recited over powerful beats. No, the lyrical onslaught from Common will make you wish you could rewind through each stanza. Not for those who like the nursery rhymes that the music industry has disseminated over the past few years. This is for the thinking man and woman; when you hear this CD you may wonder if hip hop is dead!Free Music Review: 4-1/2 stars -- I couldn't have expected any less
Hit: 4 Stars
Common is a nice change from the iced-out, gun-totin', p-poppin' rap that's dominating the airwaves (but don't get me wrong; I like THAT kind of rap as well). And if you're already a fan of his, you really shouldn't have a problem with his latest release, Finding Forever.
Standouts include "Start the Show", "Forever Begins" and the Lily Allen-assisted "Drivin' Me Wild" (by the way, you know times have changed when a band like OK Go is mentioned in a rap song). There are also some tunes for the ladies that impress, like "I Want You" and "So Far to Go". And it wouldn't be a Common album without some political songs, so that's why we have "The People", "Misunderstood" and "U, Black Maybe".
While "Southside" looks a little UNcommon on paper, not to worry; it works out very well. In fact, the only real problem I had is that I couldn't get into "Break My Heart" (well, the first verse, anyway). But that's easily ignored because the rest of the album is so damn good. Common can add Finding Forever to his already long list of classic albums.

Free Music Review: A Common Sense fan's worst nightmare
Hit: 1 Stars
I've been following Common for a long time, purchasing his CD's to support his music. Back when he was Common Sense a rapper who rapped like a poet. His music had great beats, great lyrics, and it just made you feel good overall.
This new CD was terrible. The lyrics are unoriginal and lame. Choruses overrun the song when before Common was all about his lyrics. I don't know what more to say, I won't be recommending this to anybody.
