Reviews4 mics out of 5 - "...Reflects a more worldly Common....creating full-fledged jazz, funk and soul songs....this LP unfolds in 2 acts. Act I stretching the boundaries of traditional hip-hop....Act II finds him on an emotional roller coaster...", "...His Most Eclectic Joint to Date....Fusing His Gritty Rap Edge with Bohemian, Jazzy Soul...", 8 out of 10 - "...Equal parts philosopher and documentarian....Common deftly illustrates the big picture. Like all great storytellers.", 3 stars out of 5 - "...Decidedly arthouse....This is wholemeal hip hop: chewy and a wee bit bland but nutritious all the same.", Ranked #6 in Ew's Top 10 Albums of 2000-"...One Helluva Free-Flowing Album...", Included in Rolling Stone's Top 50 Albums of 2000., 3.5 stars out of 5 - "...The dance jams...bump like acne....Common has a need to kick something that means something....A hip-hop MC willing to actually examine himself through his art? There's nothing Common about about that.", "...May be the most user-friendly contribution so far to the wave of 'conscious' rap....an intriguing balance of...paying tribute to inspirational figures like Fela Kuti and Black Panther heroine Assata, while letting the sheer pleasure of word-play bubble through...", 3 out of 5 - "...A good introduction to Common....complex and versatile....he serves up bite-size tastes of each of his various skills...", "...The most intelligent and organic album since OutKast's AQUEMINI....a masterful blend of soul/funk music and his lyrics of hope and mental and spiritual well-being.", "...His Fourth and Best Album...", 8 out of 10 - "...His most aggressive and powerful record yet....His genius is that he's never more pop and playful than when he's worried, and vice versa....KRS-One's podium is open; maybe Common oughta step up."
