Im really enjoying this new album from Common, entitled BE. Good production, great lyrics, overall great listen.
Review
1. Be (Intro) - Nice way to open the album. Beat is good. 2. The Corner - First single. Grew on me alot. Kanye West. 3. Go! - Second single. Loved it when i first heard it. Produced by Kanye West. 4. Faithful - Nice beat. It's the song at the end of the "Go" video. 5. Testify - Probably the most lyrical somg on the album. He "tells" a story, a lost art in hip hop now days. 6. Love Is - Ok song, one song that I dont listen to much though. 7. Chi-City - One of my fav songs on the album. Nice beat from Kanye, lyrics are on point 8. The Food - It's the live preformance from the Chappelle show. I loved it then also. Another Kanye beat. 9. Real People - Ok song. Techno type beat you could say, its catchy though. 10. They Say - Kanye came up with a nice beat, John Legend on the hook, and Common and Kanye delivers well or course. 11. It's Your World - Maybe the best song on the album. Love the beat, and the lyrics are so Common-nique 
OVERALL: This album is way better than his last effort, Electric Circus. My one fault is that it is too short. Altogether, it is a very solid album and I recommend it to any true hip hop fan.

Common is the shit. He latest album is pretty sick, but I still like his album with "The Light" on it.
