Common - Like Water For Chocolate

Common spent the '90s carrying the Native Tongues torch through an era dominated by gangsta rap, earning a sizable underground following. Positive-minded alternative rap came back into vogue by the new millennium, and Common managed to land with major label MCA for 2000's Like Water for Chocolate. The album established him as a leading figure of alternative rap's second generation, not just because of the best promotion he'd ever had, but also because it was his great musical leap forward. The album could have been trimmed a bit to keep its momentum going, but on the whole, Like Water for Chocolate is a major statement from an artist whose true importance was just coming into focus. Released March 28, 2000 on MCA/Universal Records, the album peaked at #16 on the Billboard 200 chart and #5 on the Top R&B/Hip Hop Albums and was certified gold by RIAA.
