He should have already been there, but it's good people are starting to believe in him on his 9th album, as if he wasn't always consistent with his previous work. -BTW, this is album of the year, easily.

Why should he be there?

Rakim

Tupac

Nas

KRS One

JayZ

Ice Cube

Big Daddy Kane

Notorious B.IG

LL Cool J

Scarface

What if I was white and put Emenim on that list or from the West and added Snoop Dogg? Black Thought, Ghostface, Jadakiss, Slick Rick, Big Pun, or my nucca Kool G Rap?

What if I had extensive knowledge of the culture and included Chuck D, Kool Moe Dee & Melle Melle??

Should I put Common in my 10 after Erykah Baduh threw that Voodoo-pussy on him and had him dressing like a bag-lady and dropping Circus-music?

SMH @ this miscreant challenging GODs rankings!!

Common is most def in my top 10. People should cop this album and cop Soul Revival too man. It's like the old head making THe Dreamer, The Believer after making a bad album(UMC) and the new younger head making soul music, dropping knowledge too. The Dreamer, The Believer and Soul Revival are albums of 2011.

But Common should be a top 10 cat regularly. His catalog is one of rap's strongest IMO

I usually agree with you, but LL's catalog, Kane's catalog, Jay's catalog, Snoop's catalog, even most of the other cats music out here dont hold up.

People shit on Electric Circus, but I actually liked the album. Nigga did something different and while some of the songs were a little ehhh, it was a solid release. The only wack album he's ever made IMO was the last joint UMC. Common got a couple classic. Most of the people named(Nas, Wu, Pac, Cube, Scarface excluded) havent been as consistent with their music as Common IMO. But to each his own of course.

Everybody been had him in their top 10 but aint nobody never talking about Common on here at least not since my join date...wonder why?

But nah Common is really good at rapping, for some reason i bought that last joint he had from the store...fucked this chick to that joint nonstop for the length of the album twice....(only common anecdote I have)

That Hell On Wheels show is pretty good too...*shrug*

L.L. got two classics, Kane is a beast, JayZ is everlasting and I will give you Snoop

Electric Cirus was just too eclectic for me and UMC was just weird.

This album is up there with BE in my opinion because it's almost flawless.

LL got two. Kane is a beast, and I think he got two as well. Jay got 3 IMO.

I think Common has 3 classics with a possible fourth(Resurrection, BE, and Like Water For Chocolate are all classics for me and all THREE sound totally different). The Dreamer The Believer is a possible fourth classic, but I cant rock with every song on here, so it's like right there for me.

Electric Circus was ight to me. It just reminded me of some Hendrix mixed with Stankonia Outkast type rap. He went off on a couple songs off EC like The Hustle and Aquarius too.

UMC was just...... no words for real lol. And I think Snoop only got ONE classic period but thats just me. Nas probably got the best catalog out of them all, especially considering longevity. Cube was on a roll in the early 90s.... I dont know what happened lol.

Thats A Solid List But Id Put Comm Over Jigga And BIG Any Day...But I Also Tend Put Alot Of Emphasis on Catalogue When Determining My GOAT List ...Which Is I Think Common is Superior To Both Them Nikkaz...But People Have Different Criteria So I Can Respect That

Cats looked at me funny when i claimed was Top 5. Hell he should be top 10 just off of Be, Resurrection, and Like Water For Chocolate alone. Put Finding Forever and One Day It'll All Make Sense in the mix and he has to be top 5 at least (number 4 to me right in front of Black Thought).

That list is pure fecal matter, get over yourself as if you can't be typed to, if you think that, get the fuck off the site, & most niggas that judge The Electric Circus NEVER even listened to it that album is dope, different but dope, the 10 minute track "Heaven Somewhere with Badu, Cee-Lo,Bilal, & a gang of other people puts a lot of niggas ALBUMS to shame alone, & to put Ice Cube over Common is fucking blasphemous BTW.
