Let Love - Common: Review
Common is a Los Angeles based rapper who was very influential in the world of jazz-centric conscious rap in the late 90's and early 2000's. Albums like Be and Like Water For Chocolate are sounds of a specific era in hip hop they are among the best in that era. Common has had a more difficult time recreating that success in more recent years, coming the closest on his last record Black America Again in 2016 but now that he is back many old school hip hop fans are hoping he has something substantial to say on this new record. Review By Lavender: Common has some great songs, albums and features in his back catalog that are among the best of his era in hip hop. Be is a fantastic record and if you've never heard it before I highly recommend it. Unfortunately since this great record Common has failed to really impress me and even when many were justifiably impressed by his socially conscious 2016 record Black America Again he was still sounding to me like a rapp...
