    I enjoryed "One Day It'll All Make Sense". It's no "Be", but I can see where it fits in Comm's discography. "One Day ..." is an album composed of "Real Nigga Quotes" (haha) over mostly No I.D. production. Legends in their early years as Common goes from stacking up for an abortion at the beginning of the record to having his father provide words of how he learned from Comm at the closer of the record. From the jump one can already see this is a personal record, with Comm plastering a childhood pic with his mother on the cover. Fresh of the Ice Cube beef and dropping Sense from his moniker, Common sticks to words of introspection in an era that was obese with a lavishness and proudness as hip hop was becoming more and more profitable to the powers that be, still Common kept it real with his audience, and it payed off.
