Audio: Ludacris "Do The Right Thang" feat. Common
Posted by Shamz on Oct 24, 2008
The 4th quarter couldn't be more loaded with releases. On November 25th, Ludacris will unleash his Theater of the Mind album. Luda's releases have been consistently good and the new joints I've hard so far have not disappointed. The latest to leak is the 9th Wonder produced "Do The Right Thang" feat. Common. The beat already had me, and both Illinois born emcees come correct on this one as well. Shout out to Andrew.

Mr Down under: ...
Whoever said white people like Obama and Ludacris because of their light skin needs to ring up Mensa, because son your a complete genius.
Either your really smart or just bitter ...
It wouldnt be whats coming out of each gentlemens mouth?
As a white person I like to listen to both men apply their trade, Obama, unlike the previous Leader can speak and speak well.
Ludacris can rhyme, rhyme well. Though I did enjoy watermelon chicken and beer better than his offerrings of the last few years he seems to be learning and getting someone like murs to help him out.

this track is hot.....it's got a reall good message. and the beat is hot 9th wonder went off on this real talk. I also think common was a good choice for a featured artist.

DOPE. This beat samples a jam from a 60's album by Arthur Verocai - great Brazilian composer.

I have heard Gotta be Karims version that was produced by Black Spade and features him I like em both but GBK version is older not to say any one heard that one and bit it.MF Doom uses this same sample on an album.

Dope!!!! Str8 Fire !!!
Love the track that 9th put together and Luda and Common are two of my favorites.
I've been waiting for them to do a track together and they hit it out the park.
This is a GRAND SLAM in the bottom of the 9th.
PEEEAAACE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyone hating on Luda is nuts. Luda has been a dope spitter for a while, people just thought he wasn't serious (the Redman of the South). But Luda is bringing it here, this is 9th's best hip-hop beat in a while, and Common kills anything.

Barack and Luda= light skin negroes that white people like cause of their "lighter than dark skin"...sure im being crass, but think about it.
If Obama was like "charlie Murphy darkness" black, he woudnt have gone this far.
WWE...who got more fame?..KOKO B.Ware, or The Rock?.
think about it, muthafuckas.

I just had to add this (in addition to my previous post)....common kills this track, he lets the track dictate his flow...and Luda kills it as well. Awhile ago Luda states that common in one of the cats he modeled his style after, plus 9th on the track makes it a classic. This is what hip-hop needs right now.

pure fire.
9th did chop this sample up nicer than DOOM..
Common sounds younger than he has in a while, but compared to Luda he still sounds a bit too introverted to be on the same track together.
Ludacris really killed this one. he is one of my absolute favorite emcees, and people need to stop sleeping. the enery and personality he brings to every track alone makes him uncomparable, but lyrically he's always on point as well.

even beyond the greatness of the beat and the rhymes is the message. we gotta support positivity like this, especially from a person who does as much as Luda does for the youth. fuck getting silly it's too serious out here to keep supporting that bullshit.

Yo I think 9th Wonder is the big winna here. But Common went in. Luda has always been nice. I heard that on the album version features Spike Lee on the intro...
Yo I gonna cop this single or Luda's lp!

I like it. I think this will be a good album for luda. at first luda had too many features on his albums. then luda created an okay album but his depth of character was not strong enough. now this album may just be the one for luda. do your thang man

Luda is smart.
9th Wonder beat featuring Common and you kick in the door of hip-hop purists.
Is this the first time Luda's name has been on okayplayer?
Good stuff.
I have always loved his similies but I stopped buyin his albums because it didn't seem like he took it as serious as a lot of the top hip-hop acts.
Blueberry Yum Yum is a song all my smokers gotta check on youtube from Luda.
