COMMON: UNIVERSAL MIND CONTROL REVIEW

Common: Universal Mind Control Review

4.5/5
By: Laz Vagez

This is Common’s 8th studio album. I must say Common career is like a see-saw with the latter days of his career is the most promising. With this album been pushed back 3 times, I hope it’s worth the wait.

01 Intro – Universal Mind Control (UMC) (Feat. Pharrell)
This song was his first single which was released in July. It’s now December and that song is still a smash. I Like this record a lot.

02 Punch Drunk Love (Feat. Kanye West)
This joint features Kanye on the hook and it’s not too shabby. I’m feeling this one right here.

03 Make My Day (Feat. Cee-Lo)
This song is like an updated 60’s feeling and it sounds really cool. It features that crazy ass Goodie Mob member Cee-Lo. He makes this hook special and Common always comes correct. Very nice track.

04 Sex 4 Sugar
One of Pharell’s weird beats that u’d have to get used to. Not really feeling this joint though.

05 Announcement (Feat. Pharrell)
I like this joint especially Pharell’s verse he is so well put toghether. This is hip hop baby. A very good track.

06 Gladiator
Common comes hard on this joint. Damn man I have nothing to say but straight fire. I’m loving this joint.

07 Changes (Feat. Muhsinah)
Very smooth track with a nice hook from an unknown singer. I like it because it mellows out the album. Nice Song

08 Inhale
HUGGEEEEE…I know this sample lol I like this joint man. Pharell is a beast on the beats and Common’s a monster on the tracks. Wikked Track

09 What A World (feat. Chester French)
A very daring track. Still has a nice feel to it so i’m liking this man. I didnt feel like changing it at all. Bump

10 Everywhere
This is a very cool song to close off such a wonderfully put album. I’m feeling this song and album. Another classic by Common.
