Common got one of the goat catalogs. Aside from a few albums though. I'm in the minority here. I actually like Electric Circus.

 

[Mandizi]

Classic album that is much appreciated. Class of '05 along with The Minstrel Show.

twista's ressurection>> common's ressurection

people always talk about the 90's but there was some raw ass music in the early 00's
