15th Anniversary of Common " Be" album

[Natural Born Sinners]

When he put out The Corner I knew what time it was.

That song grew on me...I didnt like it at first. Then I heard it on the album and it fit PERFECTLY.

 

[Natural Born Sinners]

It's your world is amazing! I read somewhere that this track was originally supposed to go to Ghostface Killah.

My favorite track on the album. I read somewhere that they interviewed a real prostitute to get inspiration for Common 1st verse. Niggas was doing research for verses

 

[Ironman]

In my top 10 albums for sure Lyrics and production were as perfect as an album can be.

 

[DOPE33]

In my top 5 of all time.. Crazy its been 15 years

 

[AZTG]

Classic album.

But damn 15 years? Amazing how fast time flew.

 

[Word....Life]

Sounds crazy to say but Common is an “underrated legend”....how many MC’s can put out a classic album like Be 10+ years into an already solid career....Resurrection, One Day It’ll All Make Sense and Like Water for Chocolate are also classic/borderline classic albums that he released before Be

[DOPE33]

Faithful one of the greatest songs ever.. Not debatable

 

[grYmes]

Fuckin classic. Copped this day one I was so excited for this. Common did his thing. Production top notch from top to bottom. Not a single skippable track.

 

[Inori]

Great album... like many have said no skips

my favorites tho...

They say
Go!
Be(Intro)

Man...... time flies.

It doesn't even seem like it's been that long

 

[Inori]

They Say with Consequence verse was better than the one with Kanyes verse. That shit shoulda made the album

 

[God_Body]

"I'm Petey Wheatstraw from the Southside of Chicago"

Bonafide classic.

Still wonder why he shot at Nas on Chi City tho?

 

[Elzo69Renaissance]

I thought it was personal.

Which poster was it that went to college w Kanye and always hated him?

King Hassan went to Chicago State w Yeezy

 

[Elzo69Renaissance]

Absolute classic

I remember bootlegging it like a couple of weeks before it dropped ....knew it was a classic then when it officially dropped I bought I think 5 copies gifted 4 copies and kept one.....then my ex stole it

 

[Ironman]

Man...... time flies.

It doesn't even seem like it's been that long

I won't acknowledge the time flying lol

I always liked The Corner Remix with Scarface and Mos Def
