[FiascosFreshness]

notice he didnt kick that last verse about the " I get mad when I see brothers with white girls on their arms " he remembered he where he was ... If that was BET he would of definitely said it... but common is the man my top 3 favorite rappers of all time....

[LodoGrdzak]

Common's actually making music there. Nice performance. Like to see moee of this kind of stuff.

[nastyneal]

this is what hip hop should always sound like..

dope lyrics over beautiful sounding music..

[bass6strng]

June is sick on the Rhodes.

[so0flawless]

they make him do that all the time, esp if its a live tv performance. He sure didnt write those lyrics to not perform them! I love Common!

[Catbejammin]

man, that's rashawn ross on trumpet

[hitman101]

Classy performance.

[Dymez513]

1 of the greatest.

[SouljaSlash]

CLASSIC

[jarbon5]

Now, that was just lovely.

[FCPSITSGEPGEPGEP]

The lines shouldn't offend anybody really. It starts off with "black men walking, with white girls on their arms//I be mad at em, as if I was their moms//told em go beyond the skin, a persons a person//

That shouldn't offend anybody, but I knew they removed it, for just that reason. It's kind of lame...

[FCPSITSGEPGEPGEP]

I appreciate the live instrumentation, but dropping a whole verse, just to not offend folks, leaves me disappointed. The entire end message about black men, choosing white women, only because they refuse black women, is missed entirely, just to keep the track politically correct for television.

[Profilaktiks]

well think about it, what would you do if you were in that situation?

a message broadcasted on tv shouldn't offend anyone.

it's a great track, i'm listening to common's BE album right now and it's my favorite.

[SDIGGIE]

maybe he just wanted to improvise and give some to the band
