for all its worth, i'd rather bump electric circus than BE, fo real Be is on the same tip as FF although i dig FF maybe i have succumbed. Electric circus is nice but on the real I always say Common and Black thought have 3 dope albums each, maybe 4 for thought counting the roots stuff (makes sense?) i will explain.
Common on the Dope
Ressurection
One Day it'll all make sense
Like Water for chocolate
Black Thought
Illadelp Halflife
Things Fall Apart
Do You want more
(The Roots) The Game Theory im pushing, i know but dopest cd in a minute
As for FF its nice 'like for 2007' the vid for the game and the track itself is nice, so is black maybe, a couple of memorables, not quotables on some tracks but you gotta give it up to common for keeping it after so many albums and still making cats wanna hear his stuff unlike dead prez and Kweli who are now total no go areas but hey they got cla**ics behind them and that's more than most cats have achieved. Actually can't understand why cats can look forward to a talib release, like wtf?! but money gotta feed his kids right?!so the artist has left the building as a result. Hope com sells though, he has earned it and so have all cats mentioned in this post, on that note i gots to go buy that like water for choccie joint been postponing for um 8 years now.
