" is a pretty much perfect one-sentence review of any late-period Common album. All I can say is, these first three records are just a different dude. The more conscious he became of his "conscious rapper" status, the more syrupy and unbearable he became. Definitely give these a shot -- they have, thankfully, almost nothing to do with Be or --shudder -- Finding Forever. (We don't mention Universal Mind Control in polite company.) jrn- Points all taken on Can I borrow a dollar? I like it because it's grimy in a way NO ONE associates with the dude -- he might not want us to remember now that he's doing yoga with Serena Williams, but he used to talk about pan-handling. And yeah, the wordplay isn't quite as....refined, but the raw energy is there. Nergal- Good catch on the KRS....and hey, wee also got the first fucking Kool Moe Dee album! http://www.emusic.com/album/Kool-Moe-Dee-Kool-Moe-Dee-MP3-Download/11530080.html Daniel –
