I rarely like to admit...

...when people are right. BUT! Common's "Be" is one of if not the hottest albums of the summer/year. Who made this claim is unimportant, for he knows who he is, but a little bloginal acknowledgement should suffice. "Be" is what hip hop needs/needed. As Com Sense would say "I wonder if these rap niggas realize they wack. And they the reason why my people say they tired of rap." None of that "Hey how you doin' little mama, let me whisper in your ear", "just a lil' bit", "boys in da hood" wackness. He came with the "real, real hip hop". I bought the album (although I did download it first) so that should speak volumes.

As a side note...thanks to the Legendary MAS crew, I am no longer a "Star Wars" virgin. Tis true, I have seen my first taste of the "Star Wars" trilogy or whatever it is. In my honest opinion, I'd rather go see "Harry Potter". Don't understand where all the "Star Wars" nerds come from. But, I guess to each his own.

Who's better Outkast or Black Star?
