15 Years Ago Today, the world received it& #39;s 1st album from Mr. West& #39;s "Good Music" label. And live up to the brand, it most certainly did
"Be" is a masterwork & always one of the first to come to mine when I think of cohesion start to finish.

Seeing Common & Ye on the Dave Chappelle Show as a kid is one of my most favorite childhood memories. Right up there with watching Mos Def on Def Poetry Jam
Peep that sh*t on youtube or cop the Chappelle Show, if you haven& #39;t already !

I grew up in St Louis, MO, in the 90& #39;s, a mere 4 1/2 hr drive from Chicago and let me tell ya& #39;ll: In the Midwest? Common was That Dude.
It& #39;s a testament to how STACKED 90& #39;s HH was that Com wasn& #39;t in the convo from the start, because Hip Hop was N.Y /LA centric at the time
But

Make No Mistake:
Common is one of the GOATs
Along with No I.D, Com Godfathered Chicago Hip Hop
I& #39;ve heard clowns say "Kanye made Common", because of "Be"https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙄" title="Face with rolling eyes" aria-label="Emoji: Face with rolling eyes">
Common brought Ye into the game, & Ye returned the favor once he blew.
Just like Ye use to open for Talib Kweli

If you& #39;re a Kanye West fan, & you& #39;re not up on Common & Talib Kweli ???
You& #39;re severely missing out, because they put the battery in Kanye& #39;s back.
And both Talib & Common are still making great albums to this DAY !!
