Album was dope as fuck. I like this gritty direction from Com, I kinda want to see more.

And before anybody mentions, I was literally just about to finish editing the OP and accidentally hit refresh, so fuck it. It's 1.30AM here, I have work at 8, and I'm not exactly an extremely energetic person as it is.

Common’s 10th album, Nobody’s Smiling, is available now, and here he speaks with Sway In The Morning about putting together the project, working with up-and-coming Chi-town artists and having No I.D executive produce his album. While in-studio, he also opened up about his situation with Drake — which has now been squashed. He also spits a 5 Fingers Of Death freestyle

Coming from a long time Common fan, this album is average at best. 5.5-6/10 for the reg edition. 6.5/10 for the deluxe. Production is too left field for me (for the most part). Was hard for me to get thru. Also why the fuck wasn't 7 deadly sins and out on bond not on the reg edition? Could of replaced a few of the tracks.

I wasn't keen, either. I was only really feeling the last three tracks; I don't think the production suits Common stylistically for the most part.


This. The production is what drags this down. I appreciate the ambition and all, but this just did not work in the slightest. You can do better No ID
