Common - thisisme then: the best of common cover

commonthisismethen.jpg

thisisme then, titled after one of Common’s songs, is a collection of hits from his early years. The compilation draws mostly from the wealth of bangers on Comm’s first fourthree albums: Can I Borrow a Dollar, Resurrection (his best work, imo), and One Day It’ll All Make Sense.

The cover is pretty tight…now all the new “Common Folk” wll realized how far back and deep Common really is!

Cant wait…..when does it come out.

I wish they had put “Hungry” on this. And this cover is too much like Jay-Z’s I hope it is a trial/ Maybe he should’ve had Donda’s boy pays the bills for the art department at Relativity.

Yo. If it is his first FOUR (which it isn’t judging by the tracklist) you missed my favourite Common album - Like Water for Chocolate - that shit is truly timeless (RIP Dilla!)…in my opinion he could almost pass that as a greatest hits album on its own - it’s great!

11. T DOT Says:

Coppin this immediately. tracklist is amazing. Videos as well is icing on top.

12. Darkpoet Says:

The Light, The 6th Sense, Faithful, etc.

Why are they missing ?

13. ISAIDIT Says:

This is a comp of the Relativity years (the first 5 years of his career)…that’s why the newere stuff isn’t on there.

The old label has to jump in there and make some cash while he’s hot…

Looks like a solid collection but it definitely should’ve had a couple tracks from my personal favorite Like Water For Chocolate.

17. illpo Says:

why is this even happening? Anybody who cares about this already has all those joints. How about some b-sides or at least “Bitch in Yoo”? That was on Relativity…
That being said, it’s dope Invocation is on there. Still think that’s where Com comes the tightest besides Resurrection.

18. Its ME bitches! Says:

Some of yall are IDIOTS!!

It says hits from the frst 3 albums and yall fake ass fans dont know he had 3 albums before Geffen. Shows how well yall know the artist yall claim too love.

HIP HOP IS DEAD…at least until COMMON - The EARLY years comes out.
