I went and picked it up today, hadn't bothered listening to the leak as I didn't feel the first single, "Universal Mind Control".
I gave it a spin and I like the album, but it's not really what I want out of a Common album. The production is absolutely amazing, but I find myselftuning out the majority of the time Common is spitting. "Be" was absolutely amazing; I was a fan of "Finding Forever" and no matter howmuch you may hate on it, you must admit it had some tracks. I expect music I'm able to sit back, chill, listen and think about when Common releases analbum, but UMC seems like a "feel good" or party record.
Definitely a good album, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little bit disappointed.
