Audio: Common “Sweet (prod. No I.D.)” [Tags]

I didn’t hear many people who weren’t feelin’ “Blue Sky,” but for those few who thought it was too soft, this new jawn is for you. Don’t let the title fool you, it’s called “Sweet,” but it’s anything but that (he’s on some “The Bitch In You” shit right here). Listen to the second single off of The Dreamer, The Believer (we’ll hit you with the CDQ soon). The video was already shot and should be released soon.

more bull shit from Common. Not raw, unnecessary and there are too many MC’s that will eat him up right now, me included. You do not represent all of Hip Hop and WE DONT BELIEVE YOU!!!!!!

  @ se.po you are so right… 123 what you are saying is a bunch of bull about Lonnie Lynn… Common is TOO NICE when it comes to lyrics… Oprah don’t even call him a rapper… She calls him a LYRICIST!!!! COMMON one of the worlds best MC’s!!!

as much as i’m excited to grab the cd when it releases becuz of com working with no id again, a track like this? wow, dude used to be my favorite mc. i still respect Com, but i just shake my head. i guess for a fan like myself who’s been with him since resurrection and loved his evolution to BE, this ish is just mad corny AND ignorant. in the economic/political/crazy/active times we living in, we don’t need this….i can’t wait for the roots Undun, but ever sice BE and Qtip’s the renaiisance, i realized the difference btween a great artist who loves music and has used his success for the good (q-tip) vs someone who has solf the f out (common) as phife would say this is straight “garbage”….as the roots become more and more relevant to the time we living in, com has become more and more irrelevant

  and the bitch in u and soul by the pound remix was a different time, this is just in bad taste…dude, just do movies…seriously
- yup yup
  
  “Making a name for our selves”, “hungry”, “Stolen Moments 1,2, and 3″, and “1,2 many” are dope Common tracks you prolly don’t like them either. For a Com fan you sound like a hater. He’s not just for you he’s for all of us remember that…

i was listening to one day it will all make sense this past week, and its brilliance is amazing…..his past 2 albums and this ish, don’t sound like the same person at all, sounds like a caricature…..but i love tariq, and the roots, and so many others, blackstar, mos looks so focused and can’t wait for that…as for com…..no comment

  and just so you all know, i loved his changes, from resurrection one day to lwfc, to electric circus (yes, that album is dope) to be…..after that it became brand Common, it seemed like after dilla passed, so did common’s passion for putting out quality hiphop….just being hinest…i’m out
- yup yup
  
  How about you just stop listen to his music, that’s easy enough. I don’t care how you feel about anybodies music and i don’t think anyone else here does either…

@123 yo Fam to put your self up with a great you have to put out great Music constantly for as long as him… Comm has been around 2 decades plus do that then come then back and post how wack he is and how great you are…And to be real any Emcee that has been doing it as Long as him and that is STILL relevant has to be commended …#Imjustsaying

  trilogy, common is an amazing artist and has changed the game. i would say i used to love her is arguably the best/most important hiphop song of all time. but, times have changed. let’s be honest….even thouugh Be was dope, it took kanye’s name to blow him up…..for his real fans from back then, we always supported him. but he has changed. and it’s his right. he don’t owe me or anyone else anything. but, i’m just sharing my opinion…

i think he got mad when everyone was calling him a soft ass/ gap clothing endorsing/queen latifah romantic comedy starring in/hobo lookin/sprite drinking/vegetarian diet billboard ass nucca when there was the white house controversy about inviting a rapper to a poetry night. and how everyone was basically saying its ok to invite him cuz he a soft ass dude.

so he came with this right here.
