I agree with Jent64…I’m feeling it. Common needs to do more songs like this. It sets him apart from the average rapper.
ummm cassidy already rapped over this beat on his wack ass BARS cd lol maybe they was countin that nobody would listen to cass cd…they was prolly right
love it!
Hot stuff all the way! Dig what Billie Holliday said on her 70 year old classic(I own 2 copies of the record); now if they could bring back OTHER classics by the REAL masters like Armstrong, Ellington, Tatum…
WoW!Real Hip Hop Artist continue to keep Hip Hop Live!
We liked over here at SWAGGTALK100, well me ore so than the other team players, always have and always will be a fan of Common & John legend
Like the song. Shot outs to billie Holiday’s “strange fruit” song as well!
Its good that one artist out there still has something meaningful to talk about in an industry where most artists just talk about money and sex.
WTF?!?!?!?!? Cassidy all ready made this song!!! It’s on his BARS Album.
I’m feeling this joint. I can nod my head to the beat and its bout time Common talk about something else besides relationships.
