Free Music Notes for Finding ForeverFree Music Review: Common is back Hit: 5 StarsI love Common and his tenancy for more eclectic beats to make his words more pronounced. There are a couple of beats like that here but with Kanye making the beats on this album there is a nice mix of some old school beats and kanye-ish ones. Common rips is as always and only has Kanye as a special guest on any of the tracks. If you like Common, you'll love this CD. Even if you're not a big Common fan, you'll like this CD. Its that good. Get it. I promise you won't regret it.
Free Music Review: Just Common Hit: 3 StarsWell Common has finally made much of the inroads that I feel he has long for and I glad to see that his hard work is paying off. But I just don't see the fire in his music and any real creativity like his previous "Like Water For Chocolate" or 'Electric Circus"(which I hold as his most original inspiring much to critics dismay. This is definately better than BE, which I did not care for at all, eventhough I did not sell it. Just to show how much I am in his corner. Thanks for the commitment, Common and I know you got to EAT.
Free Music Review: Common finds his niche Hit: 4 StarsI think "BE" is a phenomonal record. Short and to the point. No filler. Quality Hip-Hop.
"Finding Forever" is all of that. The only problem with this is that it reminds me a little TOO much of "BE". It's a shame that everyone dogged "Electric Circus" because it was a bold step artistically. I get the impression that Common now plays it safe.
He seems to have found a formula. It works, no doubt, but I wonder what these records would've sounded like otherwise. Common almost always comes correct as an MC, and Kanye and Dilla (RIP) contribute great backdrops for the Chicago rapper. Hopefully with his newfound success he'll get the nerve to make something "different".
This is better than 100% of the trash on the radio...but if you're an old
head like myself, it's nothing new. Cats have been doing this from day one. Thankfully Common brings attention to good Hip-Hop music.
Free Music Review: Common does it again Hit: 5 StarsAmazing Album. Things come together for both Kayne and Common on this album. This is the album of the year and can't be missed.
Free Music Review: Forever Finding... Hit: 5 Starsthat Common continuely put out GOOD music. I will now refer to Rashid as the 'ISAAC HAYES of Hip Hop'. This cd is sooo Soulful, it brings back what Hip Hop is missing: a message. This new 'clap' music SUX and we need more Hip Hop like Common, Talib, Mos, Pharaoh, Will.I.Am.
