Okay as for what album's better, it's Late Registration.

Common is a better rapper than Kanye West. Anyone who disputes this is nuckin futs.

I can give you a very accurate description of it now, if you wanna hit me on AIM.

Yeah, I really need to listen to each another time to actually decide which is better.

Although I did love driving into and out of school today to "Drive Slow"

I do too. They are good. Did they seriously have a new album come out? It seems like they have been around forever.

Common is the better rapper. I enjoy "Late Registration" more, though.

Late Reg is better but Be is a good album itself.

I should've voted for Be, even though I like LR more. Poor Common.

and I'm going to go with Late Registration. Be was a great listen though, i thoroughly enjoyed it.

Yeah I got both of those earlier today. "We Can Make It Better" is excellent, and the other track with Common is short, but I love how it reprises "The Corner" off of Be.

Sped up sample + Catchy hook = Fun hip hop song.

You put Kweli and Common on one track and good things will happen. Those two are a great pair, they need to work together sometime. A Blackstar type project, just with Com instead of Mos Def.

i was surprised to see that Talib and Mos didn't have a track on LR when it first leaked.

LR is also killing the reviews, i think from what i've seen Maxim, Rolling Stone, and XXL all gave perfect reviews

Got a 5 from Rolling Stone and became I think only the fourth album in the history of the publication to receive an XXL rating from XXL.

the cd grows on me more and more w/ each listen, i can't listened to ripped cd's in my car past like track 8 so i haven't had a chance to listen to cd the cd fully in my car but i'm sure once i get to drive around and listen to it i'll love it even more
