Hmmm… I really like this. I think that, in terms of the aesthetic on BE, this really doesn’t fit in. I also like the KanYe beat way more than this one. But this is a great song too. Glad it got released, but this could have gone on Finding Forever (which, I must say, was [...]

New track off of UMC (formerly Invincible Summer). Its another Obama track, and its really cool. I thought this album was going to be all hype, but this track is real mellow and soulful. Kinda sounds like it could have been on Electric Circus in terms of the production. Its kinda ethereal, and the hook [...]

Common & Pharrell go ultra-futuristic on us with this one. Really cool animation, use of colour, and just overall visual aesthetic. Not to mention, the song is real dope. I wonder how the ladies are going to respond to Pharrell’s new Daft Punk look. Good video, and I’m getting really excited for this album.

So… is the entire album by Common & Pharrell? I thought Mr. DJ had some joints on this. Regardless, everything off this album sounds pretty good (at least the crappy youtube versions sound ok). I’m getting excited for this album. But I do wanna hear some stuff from Mr. DJ.

Common just debuted a new song with Pharrell in Houston. The song, ‘There’s Nothing You Can Do’ should be on his upcoming album, retitled “Universal Mind Control.” I definitely like the new title of the album better. Invincible Summer was kind of wack.

Pharrell and Common have been a winning combination since Electric Circus. Even if everyone sleeps.
Take it to the tip-top baby!

I’m not even that big of a fan of The Game. But LAX is sounding very very nice. I think fooling yourself into thinking that an album is your last does wonders for making something to remember. Just look at the Black Album. But yeah, collabos out the wazoo, excellent production from all over, and [...]
