This song is fucking legendary. Pay attention to the rhyme schemes in each of the verses. Verse 1: All 1 syllable rhymes with the same vowel sound, Verse 2: is 2 syllable rhymes and Verse 3: is 3 syllable rhymes. Common is one of the most skilled lyricists to ever live.

He's true. He knows the people that matter the most (those of us who live and love hip hop) important folks know and love him. I've a feeling you must lose alot of morals to be on TV and radio and be pushed like Kanye was, Jay-z(Hawaiian Sophie-haha.Easy to talk tough with paid security) is, and the greatest stopped being in the 90s. Pro black? No exposure. Just normal, not negative gangsterism? Soundcloud and small clubs. Better be shallow, materialistic, and telling on yourself for stuff you've never done or the corporate will block anyone seeing you on a large scale. You black? Act dumber and a bit gaudy and tactless. You might get a chance. Ye went the materialism route. Without that, he'd be like Com, DOOM, Lord Finesse, a million others. Financially stable and safe(not rich), respected, and happier.

Let me know if you want more people, to go with the great music, in your collection. Blessings to You and to The Great Ones.

I don't know about these young boys today but I'm 36 and this video embodies the essence of a Chicago winter. Every scene is reality in the Chi. The train yards where we used to break in carts and do grafitti. The pimps and macks, the liquor stores on every corner, old schools, vacant lots, tenements, L-trains running through the city like blood through the veins, the hustlers, the subways, the rooftops, the skyline, the lakeshore, the Southshore, gangs, the Mob, the Nation of Islam, Muslims, rappers, hoopers, the poets, the fire side trash cans, whinos, the cold, the warmth, the love. It's Chicago.

Chicago is Common's hometown

"The world is cold. The block is hot as a stove." Greatness lies in the simplicity of expression.

Common has amazing bars. No matter what neighborhood you’re from, the corner is today’s school for anthropological study. Not about skin, tone or location, location, location, but helping.

Only Kanye and J Dilla can produce such an amazing album.

That box cutty tho 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
