Shouts out to the homey Common!

Common scored his first No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with his latest disc Finding Forever. Com’s seventh solo CD sold 155,000 copies in its opening week according to Nielsen’s SoundScan. The album features appearances from Kanye West, Lily Allen, Bilal and D’Angelo, with West handling a majority of the production.

He’s dropped some classic material over the years and I hope more folks continue to buy it and listen to him maybe for the first time. One Day It’ll All Make Sense and Be are my favorite cd’s from him but no matter the song he always has something heavy to say and that’s what I like about him. If you need further proof check his verse on Get’em High on Kanye’s College Dropout.

    Common definately hit this out of the park. Dave you picked my two favorite Common discs, but I have to add Finding Forever to that list. I got it last week and haven’t stopped listening to it since. It plays through if you skip the intro.
