Kanye's "Late Registration" or Common's "Be" ??
« on: August 29, 2005, 03:59:19 PM »
So, which is it ?
The albums have the same feel to it, due to all the samples, and with Kanye West doing 95% of both albums, save a few cuts.
I dunno yet, I feel that the production on LR was better, because BE was too minimalistic and became a lil boring, but then again Common got better rhymes than Kanye.

haven't heard Late Registration yet, so right now BE. I like that CD, and it's a cool CD to just relax and chill to.

I think right now it's BE.  LR hasn't really sunk in yet.  Right now it's not all that good to me.  But it took a while for BE to really sink in.

Late Registration. The production is too crisp and polished. Kanye obviously isn't a great MC like Common but Late Registration overall is a better album.

Both great albums though.

well, mc-wise, common shits all over kanye. the production of kanye is innovative and good/commerical/appealing at the same time.. so yea.. as I rather go with lyrics/raps, I like common's album more, but I can easily understand why certain ppl like kanye's more.

As far as MC skills go, Be no question. And as far as production goes, I say Be also. Both albums have the same feel to it, but for some reason are Kanye's beats better on Be than LR imo. The production on LR is top notch though, but the beats on Be appeal more to me than LR.
So overal its definitely Be, but I guess its too early to judge.
