Greetings
Aight it took me long enough but eye wanted to listen and absorb.....Eye didn't want to be bombarded by anybody else's opinion of this cd....So eye took my time buying this and listening-Can you believe eye didn't even download it early....Hahahaha....
Ok this time out there are only 13 songs on this disc....Boo! thats the most upsetting thing....Outside of that let me first say that he worked with many of my favorite artist on this joint....
Prince
Mary J. Blige
Bilal(my baby daddy #2)
Omar(BD #4)
Jill Scott
Erykah Badu
Cee-Lo(damn Lo what can't you do?)
Marie Daulne-Zap Mama
Vinia Mojica
and Pops

There are a few others on the list but im not listing all them folks...lol! Anyways this is the ghetto fabu cd review right hurr....So listen up...
Electric Circus starts off with Ferris Wheel...quite fair like....it reminds me of riding one actually....Ok stratch all that fancy shyt. I Am Music is my favorite joint on this cd......WHEW! Man coming from a music background eye must say Jill gets better each time she hits the mic......damn now this gave a sis chills and im not easily impressed.....lol! Star *69(PS With Love) shows Bilal at his best...Music...Man this is my baby daddy for real....hehe! Between Me,You and Liberation featuring Cee-Lo..Eye love it when he sings..he is defining what soul is....yep eye said it! Heaven Somewhere is the all star joint of the cd..and it is all of that...Each artists comes thru and represents their own sound,soul or feeling however u people want to label it......lol! It really is a beautiful song.....Last but not least for the stand out tracks on this cd Jimi Was A RockStar....Hmmm this one gets a big hmmm.....From the beginning it starts out with a deep rhthym...then progresses into lyrics and Common's voice is vamped low profile type of thing...He's singing did eye forget to mention that....However it grows into this musical,electrical guitar, Jimi meets Bootsy,colorful type of vibe....Its hmmm...Will get you high...If you don't get high then eye dont suggest listening to this track...lol! because u will at least want too....
All and all this cd is really nice....Peaceful vibe to it and eye see Common's growth into manhood.. An music.with a different approach to the mic..which is always needed in this bubbling ballin azz society....this cd is fun-even the album cover has a certain fun to it....Cop this joint for ya house....This aint one to ride too....But the creative-ness will flow.....Seen!
