Thank you for this video Fellas! I hope we can get another Auditorium album. Yes. Im greedy. π
My only complaint with the album: I wish Common would've rhymed on that outro! Other than that: Verrrrrrrrrrrry dope album!!!!
The album is incredible.
This album is like an antidepressant! Salute the OGβs still putting out π₯π₯π₯π₯

I played it like 5 times today π 8.5/10 for me. Check out Daniel Son and Futurewave as well. Blu and Evidence dopped today also. 3 dope albums in one day. What an historic day for Hip-Hop.
That album is a classic!!!! ,Iβve been listening to βso many peopleβ the way he explained,Destiny,hope and faith π₯π₯
Fantastic job the song is a unique and amazing piece of art πππ½
A true collaborative effort. This is what doing joint albums should be.
Rasheed and Pete dope collaboration! Authentic Hip Hop!
Keep going!!!πππ
The interviewer is CLEARLY a Common fan..or @LEAST he's keeping up w/ his career
Lyrically.."Stellar" is where Common went HAM
Common's a LYRICIST..Pete Rock is a PRODUCER..but I KIND of liked Pete Rock's verse better on that song
THIS IS DOPE LOVE BREAKDOWNS

I would love to hear an album by Common and Killah Priest. Both are dope lyricists that make your mind travel while listening to them. A few RZA beats, Pete Rock, Dj Premier, Q-Tip, Large Pro and J-Dilla. I'm sure there are beats from J-Dilla we've not heard.
Phenomenal album! through & through
When Common said time traveling I thought of his Like Water For Chocolate Album
Thank yaw for being true Artist YAW THIS WORK AMAZING!!!
Easily 5 mics if the bible of hip hop was still rating albums π€π€π€π€π€

Dreamin – Powerful Opening! Really set the tone. Perfect Sequencing!
GREAT album!
