I hate when a really good album or movie comes out and people declare it a classic because there is a chance in 5 years people may watch and listen just to realize that they were just caught up in the hype. Sometimes when a piece of art hits it is not fully appreciated until later on. That is how a lot of people including myself feel about Resurrection, Common's second album. There are people who have been disapointed with every album he has done since Resurrection because it was not Resurrection 2.
Now in retrospect it may seem outrageous that this album only received 3 and a half mics, but this is during an era when the mic rating system really meant something. Reasonable Doubt, Doggystyle, and The Score only received 4 mics.
