How does NT feel about Common- Be?

[true 3 blue]

Just got finished listening to this for the first time (yea I said it), zero skippable tracks. Nothing but heatrock.

I don't use the word often, but Classic?

 

[lesfamilia]

Classic album from start to finish...

 

[seymore cake]

MmmmmHmmmm... I used to wake up in the morning and watch the video for BE.

Would put me in a good vibe, which would often be broken down by the time my 2nd class started

The last min 1/2 of Faithful is some of thee most beautiful music ever made regardless of genre. Legend/Bilal going back to back harmonizing with that sample.Indescribable. I can't tell you how many times I've rewound just that min+

I'll give it that label.

 

[Pmighty]

it was solid
his best work imo was "like water..."

 

[eagle 0n]

It was the last Comm Sense album that I throughly enjoyed from start to finish.

 

[dapper d]

I'm on the fence of about this being a classic....
its pretty damn close if its not...

 

[illionaire]

Probably his best work IMO.

It's good front to back.

Ya'll also slept on UMC but I don't care cause NT doesn't like anything.

 

[ryair max 1]

the intro alone...

 

[illphillip]

Great ++++*%# album. Top to bottom. You could say "classic" and I wouldn't argue. Intro is crazy.

"Go" is inspirational. Cake nailed it as well. The end of "Faithful" is some beautiful %@$!.

But "The Food" live on Chappelle's Show smokes the album version.

 

[verdykt]

Top 10 album for me. I love it front to back.

 

[sstutter]

'Ye and Common is one of the best duos in hip-hop. Be is by far Common's best work in my opinion.

Truth. I'm glad more people are starting to recognize this album.

 

[true 3 blue]

Son I'm on my way to my 3rd class and just went through the cd on the ipod for like the 8th time

Only gripe from me, I wish it wasn't so short.

Kanye got foolish on here, with the verses and the beats

Any other Common worth giving a listen?

I'm gonna need to hear this version.

 

[eddiehouse5]

when it came out i said it was boring, and today, i say the same thing. it's a good album, but i don't feel it's incredible.

the fine wine approach has not worked for this record.

edit- the food that i have is from the chappelle show, did they change the version after the album came out?

if you're looking for more common, i suggest like water for chocolate, and resurection.

 

[dgk3188]

i'm not even a Common fan. the only albums i like from him are BE and Finding Forever.

but BE is amazing. Classic without a doubt. the vibe from that album is something else

 

[hypebeast mcstreetwear]

Awww Man. I remember cats in 10th grade tried to play me cause I bumped Common, then after I let em hear it... dudes was

This CD was on the iPod during my whole trip to Jamaica. The whole CD holds significance.

 

[shaq diesel 34]

Classic album.

 

[deepinthajeep]

Amazing work.

 

[numbah1grimey]

I love this album. "Its your world" is my favorite cut. Ye and Com came correct with this effort.

 

[aepps20]

Be is a classic album IMO.

I think I've played Be(Intro) over 135 times.

Did we get different versions of the album???
"The Food" on my CD IS the Chappelle Show performance.

I thought the full studio version was only released as a single/Internets...

That beat alone

it gives me chills

 

[DVMNXK]

Kanye's best production IMO and the pinnacle of Com's career. Very classic.
