And I enjoyed Distant Relatives even more- two gifted, conscious artists making a statement about being rich and black spiritually in the world over dope, beats. Again they pulled it off considering the difficulty of not sounding too preachy and effortless merging both genres and styles.
I'm sure I'll enjoy a Common/Nas album as well as long as it is well produced, has substance and depth and just dope rhymes. Simple.
Nice post
