Finding Forever by Common

Finding Forever-Common

Common breathes a fresh breath on the rap game.

I always feel connected w/ his lyrics so much so that I often feel as though he is speaking directly to me……especially in the song Black Maybe.

A snippet from Black Maybe:
You get judged.….you get laughed at.…..you get looked at wrong…..you get cited for not being strong….…the struggle of just being you….the struggle of just being us…...black maybe……

Common’s flow is awesome and on point so on this disk he delivers more of the good music we have grown used to from him…..he spits the real that most rappers run from.
The beats are on point but I feel as if Kanye held back a little on this CD maybe it’s because he was saving the beats for his up and coming album (I’m such a cynic).

My fav song on the CD by far is Drivin’ Me Wild feat. Lily Allen, and my favorite line goes like “Love is not a mystery, it’s everything”. Awesome!

Okay I should mention that I am a bit biased because I am a huge fan of Common but who gives a lovely because it’s my blog and I do what I want.

O && one question----Are all the conscience rappers from Chi-town? Im jus sayin

If you haven’t gotten Finding Forever I suggest heading to the store ASAP because it is def. a must have!
