  • Still a classic and my favorite Common Song. . .

  • Common and Kanye is always a problem together , 2 out of his top 3 cds Ye was the man behind them

  • I'm white but I love this. ^_^

  • thumbs up!

  • a classic

  • The 2nd Verse 4 all the hoopsters listen closely!!! Realest Shit

  • @KKZReset11 I'm jewish, I've been called all kinds of names and been excluded numerous times, my cousins watched their parents get executed in front of their house just because they were different. ''The struggle of just being us'' I think you don't really know what this represents. By the way I don't even see color, if someone hadn't told me common was black or whatever I probably wouldn't have noticed.

  • Common has always been one of the best in my book.

  • And this goes to all white people wannabes, trying to be black... Seriously, trying to be the underdog, and trying to "relate". Going out of their way to make "black friends". I bet your white dad and mom don't know you listen to common, otherwise they would be furious lol. Be happy that you are white, and stay on your side of the tracks. I would rather deal with a racist white person than a condescending "sympathizer" who tries so hard to be part of something they are not.

  • @KKZReset11 Dude that is even more ignorant than white racists. I don't go out of my way to make black friends and I can relate to hip hop and rap. I've sold drugs been poor as fuck but it doesn't matter to me. Color is an illusion to me and many other people. I can't see why you aren't happy whites like this music isn't that a good thing? They can get an understanding on what blacks go through and realize that there are things in this world that need changing and we can start changing them.

  • @magicmark1292 I don't judge people by the color of their skin but by their character and personality.

  • @magicmark1292 ur lame

  • @KKZReset11 ITS PEOPLE LIKE YOU WHO PUSH SEPERATISM WHICH IS A FORM OF RACISM> AND THUS KEEP IT ALIVE. A WHITE PERSON MIGHT HAVE TO MOVE INTO A BAD NEIGHBOURHOOD THAT COULD BE MOSTLY BLACK(not syaing it will be) but feel racism as bad or worse than some black people and minds like yours are the cause !! ignorant fuck.

  • @KKZReset11 So FUCKING IGNORANT YOU ARE WHITE YOU HAVE EVERYTHING. IM MALATTO BUT I FUCKING HATE PEOPLE LIKE YOU WHO DONT MAKE ME PROUD TO BE BLACK

  • @KKZReset11 As long as you are implying that you are racist too. This is one of the most closed minded statements I've ever heard.. "Stay on your side of tracks".. Wtf is that? Music is music, at least with music there is no color. So because I'm black I'm not allowed to listen to john mayer? And because Robin thicke is white he can't be considered RnB, which is typically a black cultured genre? Its people with your mentality that stops this world from progressing. And if you didn't like common

  • Ah man.. This song so soulful.... This gonna be around forever...

  • maybe!!:)

  • WORD

    

  • who did common sample this jam from? this is my number one pick for black music month this year. black music month is june by the way.

  • @TheActionheat

    this songs comes from Syreeta Wright.. I forget how to spell her name.. but It's called Black Maybe

  • @jayrobinson78

    truuueeeee! love also the original!

    

  • this song is so dope i love common and kanye both

  • I'm not black. But I listen to this song.

    I always wondered where that leaves me.

  • @McSirDeeSir Hiphop excepts all fans :]

  • @McSirDeeSir With taste and the ability to transcend ones' differences and fine common (for the pun) ground. Peace.

  • @McSirDeeSir It leaves you nowhere. I am guessing you're white. I honestly don't understand what your problem is, you have everything. You are WHITE LOL. What the fuck do you want out of hip-hop? How can you relate to any of the struggles black people face? Or have faced? Do you get called "nigger"? "Jigaboo"? Do you get denied a leg up out of a welfare check that keeps you in your perpetual state of being downtrodden in society? Go listen to opera man, stop trying to be something you are not.

  • @KKZReset11 Pure Ignorance. Who are you to say this guy can't relate to the song? Do you know him? I'm black myself with friends of all races, and trust me they all have their struggles at some point. This song is a story, who's to say that all people can't enjoy it. It's like watching a movie, I guess I can't be a fan of "Boys In The Hood" because my life wasn't as ludicrous as theirs'? Leave the segregation at home nigga, cultures are clashing, and things are changing slowly but surely.

  • say what you want about kanYe, then have a listen to this track!

  • Nice man !

  • This is such a great track, I don't understand half the criticism this album receives.

  • love this shit right here...

  • People say what they wanna say about KanYe but everything he touches turns gold. He produced this album.

  • I heard a white man's "yes" is a black "maybe"

    Such a powerful line to come out of the gate with

  • @thephantom0  reel talk fam, dat opening line is very strong

  • sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet

  • my favorite track on the album son!!!

  • This song has so much depth I can't begin to thank the creative minds behind this track

  • @Country985 kanYe was pretty much the force behind this track! along with common ofcorse.
