PLAY IT AGAIN - Songs You Might Have Missed The First Time Around

"Be" by Common
 "Walk like warriors, we were never told to run
Explored the world to return to where my soul begun
Never looking back or too far in front of me
The present is a gift
and I just wanna Be."


The title track from Common's Grammy nominated Rap Album of the Year (2006), "Be" is a soulful proclamation advising you to rise to your potential and let yourself be free. From the cool sounds of the opening double bass, to the groovin' sample of Albert Jones' "Mother Nature" (1977), "Be" is an exceptional work of art.

This song is also available for download @ iTunes.
