[mondo]

I don't know about you guys, but I really like his style. It's really unique and totally different from all the other Hip Hop acts + his music is really great.

 

[Ninja Pirate]

Aww he's cute. A rapper?

 

[mondo]

yeah, you should definetly check out these albums from him: Be ! and Resurrection. He has really smart rhymes.

 

[EvaLaDiva]

Ugh! Homeboy needs to shave.

Common is a gorgeous man.I don' t think his style is really unique but he wears his clothes very well( and looks very good in them). Which makes him stand out more than other rap artists. I liked this outfit he wore awhile ago. So colorful

I love Common so much. He is so different from typical rappers. He is just so great. And his style is just amazing.

 

[cocomonkey4]

he is very different from the current rappers who dominated hip hop with their flashy 'ice' and tattoos. I really think Common's style works for him too. I mean, his style is not anything oringinal but it works on him and he wears things that actually go together where as Usher or Kanye west tries the same look but everything just clashes. It just seems like they just pick out anything and everything and put it on.

he is so hot! some say he's gay... that would be ok

 

[Neo_Classic]

He's just Common now. The Sense part isn't really said a lot. Anyway, I like him. He's gorgeous.

 

[Lady Panties]

Yes he's hot!

But Common isn't gay, he's with andres ex wife, no?

Resurrection is a classic.

 

[Neo_Classic]

^Uh Common and Erykah called it quits a while ago.

 

[indie]

I love the album "be" and I really need to hear he's earlier albums

"The present is a gift and I just want to BE"

 

[AlmostFamous]

His voice is so deep. Listening to him talk at the VMAs, I was quite surprised.

Common Makes racist remarks about interacial dating/Now uk emcees Yungun Rising sun and Doc brown release a track dissin him!!!

Heres an excerpt about it first up:

In reaction to Common's recent comments disapproving of interracial dating, several heated UK rappers recorded a response track, where among other terms called the Chicago rapper "a racist beeyatch."

Common, an emcee known for his conscious image, recently revealed to Touch Magazine (The UK's leading urban music publication) that he objected to mixed race relations. He specifically said he opposed black men with dreadlocks dating white women because these men would be "going against what the dreadlocks purpose was."

After reading the interview rappers Rising Son, Yungun, and Doc Brown decided to address the comments rhyming over the beat for Common's "The Corner." All of the emcees come from mixed races and felt personally attacked.

On the track, titled "Dear Common (The Corner Dub)," Rising calls the Chicago emcee "a racist beeyatch." Yungun adds fuel to the fire spitting "I liked your words but it's hard to believe in 'em now/ and I'm a friendly type of guy I want peace to abound/ problem is though, if I ever see you around/ I'ma have to stop Rising from beating you down/ because he wants to slay ya/ show ya how you turn a concious rapper/ into a fully unconscious rapper." He continues saying. "I quote'sellout like a dred and a white girl,' shocking/ I thought that who you date is a personal option/ and who made you think you're the one that could stop them/ You said they sold out, well I guess you got something in common.

Furthermore Rising had this to say about the windy city representative, "he needs to be careful because no matter what his opinions are, he's still got a lot of white fans. He comes over here and does gigs here; most of his fan base here is white. I mean, who was that 'Electric Circus' album aimed at? That wasn't aimed at no one in no ghetto, that wasn't aimed at no black people, that wasn't a black album. If he keeps wanting to use the term sell out, what was that album all about?"
