I didn't really get into Common until "The Light" came out around 2000. I think that song had really put him out there but his Resurrection album is a classic.


YouTube - Common - The Light

^Yeah, I know what you're talking about - I won't mention it either but I like both Cube and Common.

Guys, thanks for holding it down in the other thread about rap. Hip hop is music and a way of life. Some will never understand.

So older than 2008: one of my favorite tracks ever - I guess cause back when this was out I was a heavy smoker but I still love the beat.
YouTube - Styles P - I Get High

For 2008 and newer I'm kinda feeling crack a bottle by Eminem - at first I didn't like it but it grew on me. I heard Outkast is dropping an album this year so I'm looking for that.
This was called 'Good Times', right?
