Free Music Notes for Finding ForeverFree Music Review: Be's Sequel Hit: 4 StarsCommon would be the definition of an MC. His status in the universe of Hip Hop is more of a galaxies compared to those insects that only write "verses" like they were still in kindergarten. No names mentioned because they know who they are. Finding Forever could be thought of as Be Part 2 but it just dosen't surpass it's predecessor. Strong lyrics make this album whole with beats that hold them down but towards the end you get a bit fazed out. Tracks like "The People", "Southside" and "Black Maybe" bring this album to the spotlight. This isn't Common's best but this puts those other rappers in a position where they question if they should continue to create "music".
Free Music Review: The other one Chicago's and hip hop best releases this year! Hit: 5 StarsI have always been a fan of Common since Breaker 1/9. Real Hip Hop is not dead and there are a gang of haters out there that would rather listen to all that killing and money talk. One of Common's best since Like water for chocolate! My favorites are Start the Show, Breakin my Heart, Southside, I want you, the Game and the People. ChiCago represent all day!
Free Music Review: Classic? Hit: 4 StarsIt's your boy J-RE! (artist). Is it a classic? Hmmm...I think so. I gotta say this though. I truly respect the hard work that Common and Kanye have put into this album. Word up, I think they were comparing their work to the movie "The Prestige" where he would kill himself every night just to be the best. That hit home, cause that's what it takes. To put everything into an album, that's all you can do. If the people like it they like it, if they don't they don't. But at least you know that you did your best. For that I respect this album and Common for that. Thanks...to the whole squad that still believes in music, Kanye, Common, Consequence, Talib...
Free Music Review: ...weak follow-up to 'Be' Hit: 3 StarsNice album...but 'Be' was much stronger. Wished he woulda kept the pace with the mark he made with last album...still recommended tho

02 start the show - not the best collab between Common and Kanye
03 the people - The single. Fire!!
04 drivin' me wild - takes awhile to get used to. Hot track
05 i want you - Stand out track (Produced by Will.i.am)
06 southside - chorus was annoying at first, but i got used to it. Dope track
07 the game - another banger
08 U, black maybe - a real mellow and smooth track - nice
09 so far to go - good track. Also featured on J-Dilla's "The Shining"
10 break my heart - Great song - consistently on repeat
11 misunderstood - not bad, but not in the top 5 on the album
12 forever begins - I love everything about this track except for "Common's Pops" talking at the end
overall 4 stars
