Reviews (page 13 of 13)

man, wat is dit voor lijst... heb de indruk dat het 'Listen to these 1001 albums and you surely will die' is... kutalbum!

Not for me.

*some music, mostly rap.

The best part of this album was Kanye West.

Not for me

Great voice. Not my style of music

Not sure why this makes it into the top 1000? Rubbish.

Rap, 2005 -> 1

whatev

Maybe I am just not a rap guy, maybe this album isn't actually this good. Anyways, it's simply a bit boring to listen to, it's like a sip of warm water.

Didn't mind it but quickly became background dull noise. Another "rapper of the month" putting out same dull urban crap.

Rap isn't my thing albums produced by a nobody with a Napoleon complex doubly so

Das ist wirklich nicht meine Musik

Be Common. Fell asleep. It sounded less offensive than other Rap albums when I was awake. But due to its lack of draw on my consciousness. 1 star.

I just don’t like rap and I can’t get any enjoyment from this. Wonder if that’s a Common opinion?

No, this is nothing for me.

Langweilig

Oh no i dont like rap

HipHop / Rap - No!!!!

I gave it a try, but NO to Rap!

Be …leaving

Was ok.

Kanye produced this and I don't want to give him indirect sound scans

Bland.

For rap fans, I’m sure this is great. It’s just not for me.

So far, awful. No discernible vocal or musical talent. Not even listenable. Come on! Just terrible!

Nicht mein Ding

I only listened to a couple tunes. Didn't love.

Listened to only one song .... Glory.. The remainder of the songs I blocked due to explicit content which I chose to restrict.

Not a fan

Bad language

Not my style it is okay

Wasn't my thing. I can tell that the rhythm and lyrics are good, but I don't care for them, and the music wasn't interesting in itself. I honestly didn't even finish this one.

Too much rap

Annoying

i am not in to hip-hop-rap stop posting these to my feed

not into hip hop

First listen, not reading lyrics: 1. Got bored about halfway through and was simply waiting for it to end Second listen, reading lyrics: I'm confused. I barely understood anything, so it will be an unfair rating. Some lines are so stupid that they are hilariously funny but I can't tell if it was intentional. Or how he called himself the black pill, or how he called the cops nazis on a Kanye album, he had no idea this would sound funny in the future. Lyrics didn't help, still a 1.

I gave it a go. Common uses fairly clear dictation, I can understand him better than a lot of rappers. I didn't care for the lyrics. I tried for a few songs until he started talking about if God was a woman. Talking about if he was dating this woman. No thank you.

Not my cuppa

Didn’t like it

Not my cup of tea I’m afraid.

1. nope, still not into rap.

Its a jazz-electro-funk-rap thing and to be honnest its not really my kind of music so i dont find it very good, but its very personal

Not my type of music. Dont ever listen… so it was difficult to sit through

Felt like listening to a Kanye album with less charm. Not bad, just very forgettable

generic rap album не впечатлил абсолютно единственный трек Go! можно более менее слушать, остальное лоуфай на фон МАКСИМУМ

Terrible music, hate it

In my opinion— meh.

Not my music!!!!

Rap,some more interesting underlying music

Another album that has interesting music tracks being overshadowed by gibberish pretending to be edgy and/or poetic.

Nope, I still don't like rap music. I also don't like the collaboration with a celeb antisemite, though one could hardly blame Common for that.

The beats are nice, but the rap part isn't for me

Not my music..

Didn't liket he first time I listened to Common, didn't like this one, either. Super boring, except when it's annoying.

I've been putting off reviewing this for a few days, mostly because I wanted to find a positive thing to say about it while not offsetting that nice thing with how fundamentally boring it is. The beats are tepid and monotonous. His voice is tepid and monotonous. Yes, I'm sure the flow is there, but man I do not enjoy listening. It's certainly different to have a rapper sample cheesy lounge music, rather than the usual funk, soul and disco staples. Sure enough, this album is reminiscent of one of those torpid 70s flicks about a sales executive for a packaging company having an affair with his secretary. These samples come straight from the scene where he lays in bed smoking while his secretary showers in the hotel en-suite. It's not interesting there and it isn't interesting here.

Rap - I had excluded this from my albums as I absolutely detest it

The beginning was almost promising.. but no, I changed my mind really fast

It's just rap. I hate rap.

Just not into it

Итак, первый альбом из 1001. Прослушал от начала и почти до конца, последние две песни не зашли совсем, перематывал. Всё-таки чикагский хип-хоп и рэп - совсем не мои фавориты среди жанров музыки. Но трек №2 "The Corner" оказался очень даже слушабельным, почему-то прошла ассоциация с саундтреками к игре "Cities XL".

Horible. 1/5

Not for me

not for me, can't relate

nigga this, nigga that...no thanks.

RAP CRAP - awful

Not my style

Did not like... not my jive...

Advisory warning made me skip many of the songs.

Buenos sampleos, bien hecho pero nomás no.

La rola uno empieza con un 5, y a partir de las segunda el disco es de cartón. Qué pena. Todo mal hasta la segunda parte de la última canción, que lo que dice está chido pero no le alcanza para más de un 1.5

En efecto comenzó bien solo para rápidamente irse en picada. --...____

Didn't do anything for me.

First time hearing of this artist. Not my jam. I listened to the entire album.
