Common - Universal Mind Control

[twig1026]

I had a hard time listening to this one...not the common I'm accustomed to hearing. He usually leaves me in awe with the wordplay

 

[atcho]

Probably his worst album. But I think its okay compared to other sh** out there.
My favourite track off the album is 'Everywhere'.

i like three songs on this album

3/10 = F -

what a waste of ipod space

 

[mfury]

I'd give it a 7/10. "Sex 4 Suga" sucks like everyone said, "Changes" is just another wack Obama &%#@-riding song, and"Gladiator" is eh. Everthing else is straight, though.

I wish he would go back to the sound he had on Be. I know a lot of people want to hear the 90's Common, but Be was his best album imo.

As for this album, I never downloaded it because I think the Neptunes are trash.

Basically wraps up my thoughts

W/ me it's 3/10 but 2 of those 3 I only tolerate. The only song I truely like is the 1 w/ Kanye. Nevertheless I haven't listend to this in 4 months. Awaste of 10$

It was a lazy effort by Common...if it wasn't for Everywhere, the whole thing would have been deleted off my iPod. That being said, the song would havebeen PERFECT if Common wasn't on the track...anyways, I expect better from him. Horrible album.

 

[purpheartgrapes]

I'm laughing at the fact that some of yall spent money on this...

 

[beallsfinest]

I think I spun this for a day or two and haven't listened to it since.

Gladiator =

Punch Drunk Love, UMC, Make My Day, Announcement =

I don't really listen to the other tracks, but I really like the songs that I do listen to from the album.

[rsdplaya]

very good album imo

 

[blacklion23]

I like the album! It's not Common's best album but there are some nice tracks, Inhale being the best. I actually thought Common sounded nice on theNeptune tracks though I prefer him on more soulful beats. It's better than most albums out right now.

 

[czur1127]

at first i liked it .......... n then i realized !$% im i listenin to..... can only bump to half the album

 

[numba1kickrocka]

Hav people forgotten that "Come Close" was produced by the neptunes?

dudes acting like the UMC album was the first time common rapped overneptune beats

You can easily see that the album as a whole is wack simply because the best song is "Everywhere"
but you can't even count that cuz it's as if it's not even his song
and I'll go as far to say that Common's verse/presence on the track brings down the quality, should've let it be a solo song.

But thank goodness it put me up on Martina Topley-Bird
