i know im gonna catch alotta flack for this but i say late registration because i cant listen to common very much. i think hes a great lyracist and i respect him and all that shit but his flow just sounds boring and redundant to me. Kanye isnt a great emcee but he puts alotta work into his lyrics, theyre clever and hes more interesting to me

I feel the exact same way homie

Be for me... Production wise both albums are pretty much equal to me, but it's Common's emceeing skills that make Be so much more interesting to listen to. Neither is classic, still both great albums.

Both albums are dope but I gotta go with Common on this one, he comes correct lyrically and his album has no fillers - short and sweet.  Kanye is pretty tight too, his production feels a lot more polished but I feel the album woulda done better with fewer tracks.  Then again I was never exactly a big kanye fan...my .02 Pz......

After hearing both back to back, I have to say BE. I think it was a better all around album. Late Registration was good, I like the change of pace for Kanye, but Common over normal Kanye beats is WAY better than Kanye trying to do something like Late Registration. No knock on his new CD, I liked it, and play it, but Common over Kanye is better than Kanye over Kanye trying not to be Kanye. Common and Kanye, if they work together more could be Guru and Premo, Snoop and Dre, Rakim and Eric B, CL Smooth and Pete Rock, Kurupt and Daz. Kanye by himself is good, but Common over Kanye is better, and BE vs. Late Registration shows that.

It's gotta BE Common...I like Kanye and all, but that Common album was one for the ages.

And that was two months and a half ago... I haven't listened to LR in a long time, it got old really quick for me. Be is still in regular rotation. Need I say more?

i really dont see how people are saying "be" is better... i just cant see it... is everyone on this forum just trying to be different and not go for the more main-stream album ?

I might add that Kanye did produce all the tracks in Be so big props to him for doing such a great job on his album alongside Common's
