  • this is commons song, stop talking about kanye, he is no where near the calibre of common

  • just started browsing thru common's songs no more than 20 minutes at most, and i'm loving what i hear

  • This sounds bad compared to the live version: Live version>Studio version. It's more raw..

  • oh shit so the skipping part is in every copy? cause i was about to delete and redownload a differnet one onto my itunes..song is illl

  • Like if you think Common is class!

  • @pockbrook sorry but i disagree great artists shouldn´t have to change artists like Gangstarr, Masta Ace, Royce da 5'9'' and even Michael Jackson never changed their style and people still love them, probably for not changing :)

  • hey, go to my channel to listen to my version of this song.. well your at it you should listen to my other songs !

  • why does this song skip??

  • It's crazy that every version of this song has the skip @2:04 i think they put the skip in there on purpose or maybe kanye just didn't notice it

  • The piano's perfect. Cannot comprehend.

  • Common should feature eminem.

  • @nobel1998 I dunno, i think they're waaaaay to different. It wouldn't sound right.

  • @wwwhoho they have way different styles.. cant see it happenin

  • i miss this music.

  • i like the live version better

  • i don't understand why people hate on kanye for switching up his sound. thats what great artist do. he doesn't keep giving people the same thing. he's a artist 1st, rapper second. thats why all his musics good

  • Exactly.I like all of his stuff and he keeps getting better.Although I'd still live to hear more tracks like this one right here.

  • @pockbrook hahaha

  • @pockbrook I personally think Kanye like u said is an artist first, but his style cannot be considered in the Hip Hop genre anymore bcoz what he is doing is kinda like Pop/Neo-Soul or like i prefer to call it best A.T.G auto tune garbage

  • @Eyefoeye93 808'S & HEARTBREAK= one of the most emotional albums i have ever heard, he puts his soul into, and it was made mostly cause of his mother dying and his fiancee leaving him, so much emotion, and so creative, its not just some auto tune album, he uses auto tune in an artful way, unlike t-pain, he uses it purely as a crutch. Kanye's new album is just a fucking masterpiece MBDTF {MY BEAUTIFUL DARK TWISTED FANTASY}. STOP being a fucking music elitist.

  • @Eyefoeye93 808's was not supposed to be hip hop btw, he never said it was though. MBDTF is a hip hop 2 the fullest. best album of 2010.

  • @WeezyHOVaUryu1994 i agree with you his last album my beautiful dark little fantasy is one of the best rap albums in few years especially the album cover which btw illuminati 100% LOOOL jus kiddin its all gud

  • @pockbrook different music does not equate better music

  • @pockbrook tu comentario es vastante estupido , existen remixes no tan comerciales pero lo que hace kanye es para bailar como estupido y para que el haga dinero y no para escuchar la lirica con una buena base que es lo importante en el rap and if he's an artist 1st and then a rapper, i think he'd must leave the rap music forever .... i think the same like you ¨BigChamp214¨

  • Common always makes classics

  • @skormz

    love lockdown sucks, and stereo rap is helping kill hip-hop. old kanye is the best shea354 is right

  • 15 people probably like the live version more..

  • @Suspect12312 yeah, the live version is better

  • Kanye West and Common should do another song together...

  • @IrishTim13

    "Make her say" featuring Kid Cudi, kanye west and Common

  • from the sleezy one revered as kinG. only a bitch would think he sold out! He went for the money, which is something we all should be doing. What excatly are yall doing with your life. What i dont understand is how you could hate on someone for making a buisness choice and a smart one at thatonly someone with no money would say some shit like that honestly. yall obviously are not buisness men. would you take the manager position at your job to support your fam or turn it do because of

  • this is hip hop. i think all that new shit has its own genre. some kind of mix between techno rap party music.... oh yea i think its called the sucks dick genre. dont misuse the title of hip hop

  • @BigChamp214 U Are aware that some of the first rap was party rap {aka disco rap}? u fail @ TRYING TO be cool & different

  • @BigChamp214 MAN YOU SO FUCKING RITE YO!! THE WAY THE GAME IS NOW BRINGS TEARS TO MY FUCKING EYES MY NIGGA AND I HATE THAT SHIT BUT THE OLD SCHOOL BRING TEARS TO MY EYES AND I LOVE IT! smh..i know it aint never gone be how it used to be but a nigga can dream...and i'm currently trynna get on my rap tip i been at it for years and i'm finnaly gonna take it serious to see where it can take me if anything i'ma be the Next Kanye but the one who aint sold his soul for some soles and the gold. Ya dig?

  • in the begginig the rappers were the same........... until there was common

  • Got 2 kids and my baby's mama is late.

  • trucks thats detailed, heartless females that wanna ride in em

  • i love the both of them so much and common is so underrated but its okay

  • FROG SNARE

  • what record is this off of?

  • @SunnyBananaView this song is on Be

  • @SunnyBananaView Common - Be

  • Respond to this video... BE 

  • Summer Reading List

  • If kanye can singg without autotune why does he use it?

  • @MrTriplexxx142 because it's the trendy thing in music these days. Just doing what people like to capitalize on it.

  • @MrTriplexxx142 its a whole lot easier. But yea he should stop Autotuning. If you listen to Dark Fantasy you'll see that he doesn't need autotune.

  • kanye west is the shit! i mean his new shit isnt as great but they still murder lyrically.

  • I've always wondered if the skip at 2:03 was intentional...

  • @shogunofyellow of course not lol

  • @shogunofyellow that stuff has to be...I mean pre-album release for sure artists/producers listen to their tracks how many times right? My theory at least =D

  • he likes fish dicks in his mouth

  • he was talented.....now he's just a gayfish

  • Kanye what happened? u used to be the shit now u are shit! and a gay fish

  • @ninjabeast92 lol gay fish. ^_^

  • That song is off the hook!!!!!

  • where can i find this? this isnt the same version as the one on the Be album right?

  • Scratched CD FTW

  • @Geolink2349

    LOL

  • common went ham on this jawn!

  • This kid below me is no only enough to be on here... Common is before D.C. but a great artist of course!

  • maybe kanye should learn to swallow his fuckin pride. then he could MAYBE be on another track with a class act like common

  • @austintoebosch ??? are you serious???? if kanye wants common on a track he'll put common on a track. you cant tell him nothing fool. lmao at thinking kanye cant do whatever he wants

  • What ever happened to these good old hip-hop songs? What ever happened to Kanye? What ever happened to Dave Chappelle? He's the one who introduced me to Common and his great lyrics and songs. I wish it was still like those good old days....

  • I kinda like the live version better, just cause it's a lot more energetic. But mad love for Common and Kanye.

  • man common is so inspirational, he's so goooood

  • dave chappelle introduced me to common, now hes one of my favorites

  • what album is this song on

  • @skopered

    It's Be

  • I wish Kanye hadn't sold out. I mean, when he first came out he was AMAZING! No one could touch him lyrically or producing. This song showcases his producing talents beautifully. Through The Wire was a great track! Now he's coming out with bullshit like Love Lockdown. What the hell? Come back, Kanye!

    Other than that, I love you Common!!! You're talented and sexy ^_^

  • @Shea354 i know exactly what your saying

    old kanye was my favorite rapper

    but the fame has turned him into a monster

    i wish someone could bring him back down to earth

  • @Shea354 you gotta keep up with kanye, listen to power, monster, and devil in a new dress. He's def back. You can tell he knew 808s was a mistake.

  • Comment removed

  • @Shea354 Sold out? youre a moron, look at the music hes constantly coming out with. its amazing. hes growing into one amazing musician. and 808's even though is different, is one beautiful album. i wanna see you NOT listen to dark twisted fantasy when it comes out. its going to be amazing. period.

  • @shamsachu I didn't disrespect you, so don't go calling me out of my name. If you disagree, then disagree, but don't go calling people names. That's moronic of you to do. I'm entitled to my opinion. I didn't like the fucking album. It sounded like everything else that was out around that time, so that, to me, is him selling out. I do listen to the music he puts out, and 808s was sucky compared to what he's normally capable of. 808s was a sellout to me. Get over it.

  • @Shea354 youre obviously not a real ye fan if dont like his creativity, and 808's came out in 08, 2 years ago hop off his dick. he created the whole album without samples it was an original concept album but i prefer his other work, def not a sellout tho

  • @yeahthatstuff Okay, I CAN be a fan. I don't have to like everything he does in order to be a fan. And also, I didn't say anything disrespectful to you so don't say disrespectful shit like "hop off his dick" to me, because that is really rude. And autotune, to me, is selling out. And he was using it. So, in MY OPINION, he's a sellout. I am entitled to that so don't disrespect me for stating my opinion. Seriously. Why do you have to be rude to me? I wasn't rude to you. What's wrong with you?

  • @Shea354 i have you looked at his new album?!?!?!?!

  • @jpizzel272 Well I haven't been listening to new music from anybody because I'm in college. I'm not buying a damn thing.

  • @Shea354 DARK TWISTED FANTASY FTW

  • @Shea354 well if he hadn't sold out, a lot of people wouldn't have been enjoying his music today.

  • @Wuhzman This is true, and it's sad. But after his last album I was disappointed.

  • @Shea354 what are you talking about? kanye still is amazing. first of all love lockdown didnt just come out second of all the album that love lock down came out on was made right after his mother died. he made that album more for himself than for the media. only he can know the true meaning of the songs on that album so dont criticize him for that. plus hes back to his old self. listen to his new mix tape. listen to the song good friday by kanye ft common and kid cudi. it sounds like classic him

  • @burismiga Idk...I think that he sold out. But that's just my opinion, and I'm not changing it under any circumstances. I stand by what I say. Love Lockdown (the sound, not so much the content but the SOUND) sounded like something off of the radio that everyone else was doing TO ME. But you don't feel that way and that's fine. You're entitled to your opinion, as well. I think that he can do better than Love Lockdown or any of those other songs he put out then. That's just me.

  • @Shea354

    He didn't sell out. He's still doing things that NO ONE ELSE is doing.

    Sure, he's not doing classic rap or hip hop verses. However is musical production, and artistic production is off the charts!!!

    Check out his SNL performance of "Power".

    He's not confined to rap/hip hop, he's out competing musicians on a global level!

  • @son365 Well in my opinion, he did. That's just my view of the situation, anyway. That, and he tends to be a bit...self centered and well...rude.

  • @Shea354

    :) Well, his personality is a whole different story. I believe Obama hit the nail on the head when he described Kanye West as a "JackAss".

  • @son365 lol He really is. I mean, I know the whole Taylor Swift thing was a hoax, but what he did to Justice? Yea...made me lose respect for the man. And I heard his song "Runaway" I think it was called? Yea...I wasn't that impressed...he was singing way too much. He can't really sing so it bothered me a bit. lol It wasn't horrible tho. I just think he could do a bit better. Idk...I think I'm the type of person who thinks nothing was wrong, so why'd he change, ya know? lol

  • @Shea354

    the album was about how his mom died?? it wuz supposed to be deep

  • @Shea354 ... yeah kanye lost it for a minute but he just cant come back so easily as you want him to. look at the position that he's in right now, he got his own fans hatting on him its hard when you got that much hate on your shoulder. But you if you a kanye fan than you should know that within time he'll come back twice as hard than before =]

  • @247muzik I hear what you're saying. However, he didn't have to sit there and do what everyone else was doing, either, and that's what he sounded like he was doing. That and his personality...well...made me start to seriously dislike the man.

  • @Shea354 he didnt produce this dumbass

  • @Patrickbanahan14 Did I call you out of your name? All you had to say was that he wasn't the one who produced this. I didn't call you any names. Geez. What did I do to you?

  • @Patrickbanahan14 yes he did dumbass. look it up on wikipedia

  • @Shea354 kanye is at an all time high...his new album is his best album ever

  • @blackman246 Well I haven't heard it so I wouldn't know. I was referring to some of his other works, though. Hopefully this new album really is a lot better. I might get it if I get the money. But yea...other things are more important than a CD at this point. lol Glad you like his new CD though

  • @Shea354

    just cause kanyes new stuff doesnt sound exactly his old stuff doesnt mean he sold out, ye's always got his own style

  • @r0llskyay0 It's an opinion

  • @Shea354 NOBODY missed the old Kanye more then me, i was listening to this guy from day 1 when nobody gave him a chance....but your dead on he's changed

    he's on that next shit now, (masonry n all that)

  • @futurehalloffamer I know, huh? What a bummer

  • @Shea354 new album is pretty epic

  • @Shea354 ..and then my beautiful dark twisted fantasy came out (8)

  • @Shea354 kanye is poo and when he first came 2 the game there was like a thausand people who could wipe the floor with kanye,and now he is just wack and shouldnt be alive,along with wiz,soulja,gucci,weezy,jeezy,a­nd every other mainstream rapper.or rapper who only talks about drugs and gettin fuked up

  • @littleman394 they should be dead cause they go where the money is? lmfao! gtfo. you would sell out in a heartbeat for millions of dollars.

  • @JearUhhMe i would seel out,,,lol u no me u no what id do??

    no u dont so shut the fuck up and think of sumthin better 2 say

  • @Shea354

    lol love lockdown pretty much invented that type of stereo rap.! it was a great innovation in music

  • @Shea354 KanYe's shit is still real and Love Lockdown was an experiment with Auto tune. 808's And Heartbreak is a great album. its more about emotional stuff. Kanye is still one of the best in my book!

  • @Shea354 his first 3 albums, the college drop out, late registration and graduation were extremely good albums and the songs were amazing, after them, he's gone down hill, his old stuff beast and he was one of the best hip hop artists..

  • gave me wood

  • i wish artists comin out these days didnt blow big hairy nuts

  • @rbolden33 listen to pill, wiz khalifa, mac miller, freddie gibbs, k.o kid, j cole, and of course common

    I bet there is alot more good hip-hop out there, but these guys still keep it real right now

  • @dudeface6666 dude, curren$y, chip the ripper, brother ali, atmosphere, cunninglynguists, immortal technique

    mad people are still out there that are good

  • @rbolden33 hard

  • Damn Chappelle has helped alot of beginning artists and now they are famous.

  • @saada245

    Not to take anything away from Dave Chappelle (the man is hilarious), but Common was alive and breathing a decade before the Chappelle Show. Just 'cause you've never heard of him, don't mean he's a "beginning artist." I just wish some of y'all would learn your hip hop history (Oh hell, I just used alliteration).

  • daaaaaaaaaamn, I love this song, I just sit and chill to it

  • Dis Shit is a Classic!!!

  • @Romerz94 you suck too.

  • @Romerz94 and your basing this on what? have you heard College Dropout, Late Registration, Graduation?

  • @Romerz94 OziiBeats says you suck big balls is this true.

  • the live version on the chappelle show sounds a lot better. I love this song tho

  • I think Curren$y remix on this song is way better. But this song is still hot.

  • Its soooooooo sloooooooooooow!!

  • love to hear the story, again and again

    about those young brothas form the city of wind

  • i liked kanye alot bettter back in tha day, i can rock to this shitt

  • @CheebaSkam631 i agree kanye lost his style ever since he went all autotune and arrogant and stuff

  • song is tight i just saw it on dave chappelle

  • @cheddab0b Me to lol, When I saw it, I was like I have to find out what that song was, Good Music. Thank you Common and Mr.West!

  • "He tryin to stay straight, the streets is bendin him"

    I love this shit. Common is sick. plain and simple. His lyricism is top notch.

  • thumbs up if you prefer the live version

  • GOOD MUSIC

  • this is what the kids should be listning to

  • @assnut33 i feel you 100%

  • street baseball 4 life

  • "you love to hear the story again and again" didnt Masta Ace say that in Nostalgia? im not saying either is biting, just wondering

  • @kuyaZ14

    It's an old school reference. Act like you know! Hint: Queensbridge.

  • the chappelle show version is so much better.

  • Definitely one of Commons best songs. Although there are a lot!

  • im more of an underground dude, but common makes hip hop sound like good old 90s classics. know im sayin?

  • @45Mang i hear ya man. I simply can't even listen to mainstream anymore or the radio for that matter. i'm all underground, it's the only thing that truly makes me feel that artist's out there still have pride in the material they produce

  • I like the live version better, this version is too slow.

  • why is youtube fucking up now? i like the old youtube, change it back!

  • that last verse is fearsome

  • anyone know how to get this version? i downloaded the album from itunes and it has the live recorded version from chapelle show.

  • @ripkid1

    video2mp3 (dot) net

  • Wow! Common! was tight 2 watch @ the concert recently. He just free style on the stage and the crowd went crazy. He is a great performer : ) See my video interview with Common regarding his new music and movie. DJ Smooth

  • @MsDJSmooth you gotta get gettube so you can just download it strait off of youtube. just look it up and download 4.0 version

  • Man is this a bootleg version?

  • This beat is one of da best I ever heard

  • my list would be 1. lupe 2. common and 3. tallib kweli

  • clean your cd before recording a youtube video

  • prob not his fault...he probably got dis off limewire, i did n it skips at the same exact parts...

  • On which official release did this version come out?

  • ahhihi i feel hony today anyone shares the same feeling as me

  • If only this version was on the album, upon release

  • thats what im sayin

  • Sweet

  • I never thought common would turn out to be the best living rapper, still making hot shit, everyone else died or soldout.
