You know you’re a star when you release a greatest hits album. You know you’re a legend, however, when someone remixes that album. Thankfully, K-Salaam and Beatnick’s Common Remixed Vol. 3 isn’t an exact retake on the rapper’s ’97 Best Of album, as he has put out some of his best work since he dropped the ‘Sense’ from his name. Rather, it is a re-interpretation of his full catalogue of greatest hits through the production lens of the two Minneapolis songwriters. The remix that has received the most hype so far is their take on Resurrection, Common’s title track from his ’94 classic album. K-Salaam and Beatnick replace No I.D.’s smooth jazz beat with a little new-age funk and some updated drums, bringing the original out of retirement and restoring its charm.

This is different. It definitely has that East Coast sound to it. I appreciate it. This still isn't gonna motivate me in the gym so it's just alright for me.

These are some of the best verses of all time. Common was on some straight other ish back in 97. The original is a straight CLASSIC but this one is a BANGER.

Ditto Dave Macli. The original song is timeless and this is a nice update with a really tight beat.

Well to me this is HIP HOP! I mean, if I had to explain to someone what type of music hip hop is, this would be an example. But I wouldn't choose this track at all, it's average! Decent beat, but boring, I'm a sucker for catchy songs! I like his flow, though

Common is one of the best artists in the industry these days. His lyrics have and continue to be a representation of what true hip-hop should be. This track is a classic regardless of who remixes and remasters it.

Ahhh! you most definately have to be a true HIP HOP fan to appreciate the lyrically content that common drops! Hip Hop and Rap are 2 different things! anybody can rap, its nothing more than than, Rap! but to be a hip hop artist you have to eat sleep and @*#$! hip hop, for hip hop is not just a genre of music it is a way of living life! to be a true hip hop artist you have to be lyrically inclined to edify your listener!

Wow, the original is a classic and this might as well be one as well. It's almost just as good and I really love the vibe. This is the best remix to a Common track that K-Salaam & Beatnick has did thus far. Common is still one of my favorite rappers and artists of all time and this just increases that. Oh, and BTW, thanks for leaving a longer, more detailed reasoning for your opinion WOW. That's respected.
