beats hot, commons wordplay is crazy
he a true B-Boy..his album drop in june it should be raw for those who are true HIP HOP heads
wtf is this common
this sounds like this was back from when hip hop first started or sumn lol
wow common decided to leave kanye off this album...i think its really going to reflect on the album and common gonna lose sum people
not feelin this at all...
This is not that bad like some of u say it is, i mean the beat doesn't really fit him but he still bringing that fire and he's just tryin somethin different...
The song has 2 grow on me, I trust Common can still make a dope album even if he is trying 2 change his body of work/style.
The more I listen 2 this track, the better it gets. Love the old school feel.
shits different but its nice, common always was one to switch his style up.
yea this is not the usual common. same great flow. i think its dope.
wow ...this some back to the future shit....but ol school shit ...i like i like ...its different and he didnt say yawww or youuu....or bust it baby.. !!!!!!
Chicago is the future of HIPHOP...real talk.
This is some crazy techno rap or somthin but it soundin good cant wait for the album
common is always hot
i like the fact that he's tryin somethin different and he switched his flow to match the beat. I give him props for being different with this.
Yo is common blowin a J in that pic?
Songs hot skateboard p is my dude !!
im feeling this.. it does take a 2nd listen to grow on u.. this definitely sounds like that LL Cool J/JLo song.. and the same beat that DJ Khaled used.. which, as far as i know, was a sample from an older song anyways.. however THIS beat has Common & Pharrell on it... so its already superior to that other wack shit.. ...i think ill like it even better with better quality & w/o the DJ drops
cosign on the LL-J-lo comment, but I actually like this song

This is some fire right here. That backdraft type shit lol. I can't wait til Invincible Summer drops. MTV doesn't know real shit...
If you cant feel this song, you arent a fan of hip hop
Common killed it, this is my favorite track of 08 so far... hot beat, sick hook and Common's lyrics are insane
Common's flow is tight as usual but these types of beats don't fit his style. Never have.
Well i he said its going to be different guess he didnt want to take there for this album. Its that summer music will see how it goes its still Common.
wat the fuk is dis, he went to melody & soul to some techo shit, i had so much respect for him, holla at ya boy
wow.. thats all there is to say just wow........
This sounds like a reach for Common, but at least he's trying to get outside of the box.
I'm on the fence.......
*****************PEOPLE GONNA HATE!!!!!!!! COMMON KNOW WHAT HE DOING EXACTLY......UNIVERSAL MIND CONTROL! BEYOND THE CHI HE GONNA CAPTURE EVERYONE'S MIND WITH THIS AND GET THEY HEAD MOVIN!!!! HE NEEDS THAT.....HOW YA'LL BE UPSET WHEN FOR OVER A DECADE HE'S NEVER HAD SUPERSTAR STATUS, AND AS THEEEEE PREMIER VET OUT THE CHI AND YOU GOT COOL KIDS, KANYE, TWISTA, LUPE, R.KELLY.....ALL THESE CHI-TOWN REPPAS THAT GET WAY MORE AIRPLAY, MAYBE NOT RESPECT, BUT AIRPLAY THAN COMMON EVER HAS.
