Kanye did a great job imitating J Dilla's style of beats, anyone who actually listened to J Dilla's beats can tell you that. And Common is on point as always touching various subjects that aren't just about rims and money. Talk about what you know. anyone who knocks this album like this person so ignorantly did is just that, ignorant about hip hop. beats don’t have to be club bangers for them to be good.

It's just that we never minded because his ear for melodious sidewalk beats granted like, Be, a flow that didn't need A-game rapping to work. "The People" and "South Side" are really the only ones here with a tune so as to not be a total waste, and both sound much more worthwhile in the context of the Kanye mixtape. It's a shame because he totally let himself turn into the caricature of blandness that Common haters have always accused.

Apache, 11 of them connected with Internet blogging, so I feel their decision to go with their strongest set of songs is smart. Hopefully, a lot more people will hear this than the mixtape. Besides, a mixtape is a mixtape. Pharoahe did the same thing with Desire, Kanye leaked a few album tracks on Can't Tell Me Nothing. I think like 12 people heard Ft.
