This. Nothing tops that album in his discography.

Agreed. Be was plain magical.

Late pass.

I downloaded the album from iTunes over the weekend. Money well spent. I didn't like Common's UMC album so I was a little reluctant to pick this up but I'm glad I did. Not quite as good as 'Be' and 'Finding Forever' but a great listen nonetheless.....

.  He killed any and everybody he was targeting with that one, mainly Drake of course.  More power to Common for that one.

It bothers me when the Gods get to acting like the +%#@+%
Guess every team doesn’t come complete with n***** like ours
Thats why I see no need to compete with n***** like y’all
I just ask them when you see me you speak up n**** thats all
Don’t be ducking like you never wanted nothing
Its feeling like rap changed, there was a time it was rugged
Back when if a n**** reached it was for the weapon
Nowadays n***** reach just to sell they record
Spaghetti bolognese in Appolo lounge
Me and my G from DC thats how I roll around
Might look light, but we heavy though
You think Drake will pull some %%$* like that you never know
Million dollar meetings in a ? lounge
Me and my man all Oliver North thats how I roll around
Shawty wanna tell me secrets ’bout a rap n****
I tell a +#!$@ its more attractive when you hold it down
Kobe ’bout to lose a hundred fifty M’s
Kobe my n**** I hate it, had to be him
+#!$@ you wasn’t with me shooting in the gym
(+#!$@ you wasn’t with me shooting in the gym)
Tell Lucien I said f-ck it I’m tearing holes in my budget
Bag her like we in Publix and take her %%! out in public
Ordered it a filet tell her butterfly she’ll love it
She used to soda and nuggets she really just out here thuggin’
Im just hittin my pinnacle you and p*ssy identical
You like the f-ckin finish line we can’t wait to run into you
But let me get my mind of that
Young rich muthaf-cker getting mine off rap
with my n*****
Game. Set. Match.

That was probably one of the worse responses to a diss I've heard in quite some time.  You clowns hype any and everything up.  I'm sure Common just laughed at that rhyme, cause I know I did, and how could anybody not laugh at Drake of all pepole trying to talk tough.     
 
^Common said that the album with Nas is happening in that interview .. "Nas dot Com"

I won't get my hopes up though

Common and Drake’s hip hop beef has taken center stage in the music community over the last few weeks, but Common says he is “going to let it be at this point.
