Common can still rap at a high level.

DJ Premier is an iconic producer who has really influenced many others to follow in his footsteps. His career has lasted for decades and it is pretty obvious as to why. He might go down in hip-hop history as the greatest to ever lay down an instrumental. Over the course of his time in the industry, he has not dropped too many projects of his own.

However, over the past year and change, Premier has been staying pretty active. Just last year, he teamed up with Bumpy Knuckles for a 17-song project, KoleXXXion. Then, at the end of June 2023, Premier did his thing for Teflon's tape, 2 Sides To Every Story. Finally, the Houston native came out with his first solo LP in about 12 years. That was with the third installment of the Beats That Collected Dust series, which began in 2008.

He tackles the slow-mo, boom-bap production on "In Moe." The new title was revamped to "In Moe (Specuation)." Common is still showing flashes of greatness all these years later.

Quotable Lyrics:

Charge into the game or give Chicago crash
Chi' n****s get dough, is that just how they bred?
Carryin' toasts like a celebration
Why do they hate he, like a undeveloped nation?
It's levels to this, mines is elevation
I excel, LL acceleration
