Coworker at work said Common is trash

[Ezekiel 25:17]

He likes Kendrick though....

Kendrick actually has music you can step and throw down to though.

Loyalty, Swimming pools, humble, ADHD, & Money Trees to name a few


I'm a firm believer that to be a top artist money and popularity wise you need some club and party hits. Ain't nobody listening to Common at a club, house party, or yacht party.

Boy hurry up and make them people they damn food, there’s a line out the door

 

[Dirty Mcdrawz]

Juelz was better than Cam though

Not a Cam fan either so…

 

[Mank1nd]

Let the truth be told from young souls that become old
From days spent in the jungle, where must one go
To find it, time is real, we can't rewind it
Out of everybody I met, who told the truth? Time did
We find kids speakin' 'cause it's naturally in us
But the false prophets by tellin' us we born sinners
Venders of hate, got me battlin' my own mind state
At a divine rate, I ain't in this just to rhyme great
See the truth in the thighs of a stripper, the eyes of my nikka
If it's only one, then why should it differ
So constantly I seek it
Wonderin' why I gotta drink a six pack to speak it
Took a picture of the truth and tried to develop it
Had proof, it was only recognized by the intelligent
Took the negative and positive, 'cause nikkas got to live
Said I got to get more than I'm given
'Cause truth'll never be heard in religion
After searchin' the world, on the inside what was hidden
It was the truth

One of his GOAT verses imo

 

[CashmereThoughts]

Common has classic material.

One of the best, most clever, most influential records of all time.

And.

One of the most unlikely, best dis tracks that arguably defeated a monster.

He does an amazing stage show.

But.

I don't really like most of his stuff. Similar to LL now that I think about it (except Big Elly has waaaay more hits, longevity, and battle stripes). I can't bang his albums back to back. Nor, in-full even once. Nor a single joint of his that I go back to over and over.

In short.

Solid act. Dope MC with PLENTY of heat. Just not top tier.

He like, top 50

Top 50 really is the top tier.

This other 62 co-worker said he never heard of Common and he knew him for movies before rap and he heard Kanye and Twista before Common and he's from Chicago and didn't leave until like 1999

Idk why, but this shyt got me in stitches

Was he black or white?

 

[WaveGang]

I mean.

I would da said the same thing

Juelz was better than Cam though

this is a wild take



I genuinely think juelz had potential to be better than cam but would like to hear your reasoning

 

[3rdWorld]

Nasal voices can be difficult to listen to at times, whether it be rapping or singing.

I wouldn’t ever knock his skills though, and I love The Sixth Sense

It's why I couldn't listen to Drake or Wayne even at their peak.
Sounding like the damn chipmunks with those awful voices

[Son Goku]

He likes Kendrick though....

 

[TELL ME YA CHEESIN FAM?]

hes cool i just hate his soft gay voice
i need some hype shyt ala dmx

But he stopped eating meat(pause),lost weight but still raps husky

 

[$cam-U-Well_Jack$on]

Okay???

 

[TEH]

It means that they didn’t let him listen to rap before 1999. They had him like a baby in the crib. When he did start … that non lyrical rap grabbed him and it was over from then to now for his taste …

Imagine not hearing ‘Be’ when it was new because D4L and YoungBloodZ had you in a choke hold …

He's 35 and like him and this customer we're just telling me "Do you just hear him or do you actually listen to him because there's a difference" when I said Kendrick is 5 stars and Cole is 4-4.3 stars" then when she leaves he was like Common is trash when I replaced DMX in my top 3(with Rakim and I forgot who else) with him This other 62 co-worker said he never heard of Common and he knew him for movies before rap and he heard Kanye and Twista before Common and he's from Chicago and didn't leave until like 1999 And I like Gucci being from the A but the younger co-worker got Gucci in his top 3(3)with Eminem(2) and Wayne(1)

He also said Juelz Santana was trash when I said he was up their with Wayne but that's for another time

Stop talking to toys.
about a culture they are not apart of.
Music is not populat at all now.

So stop having convos with people anywhere.
who do not share your interest.
