Common--- My Way Home

[getyoasshome]

seen someone on this video say kanye wrote this song....stop being a crack smoker...common is a legendary emcee, all kanye did was sample gil scott heron, slow the beat down and loop it...viola you got a hit.

[seanemccormick1]

Common is uncommonly gifted

[GQ1123ja]

Common got that ill voice and REAL poetry

[dwadefan4lyfe2]

R.I.P. Gil

[poetryselite]

One can't help but love the homage Common pays to the late, legendary Gil Scott-Heron in this one as he samples "Home Is Where The Hatred Is". Common's so gifted as a lyricist that he's amongst the greatest just for that alone, but when you truly analyze his revolutionary content and soul, gratifyin poetics, it's no question that he's in the top 10, dead or alive. Much respect to Common for being one of the few modern MCs to have "Sense".

[AreYouSayingPow1]

damn it should of been another verse or maybe Nas or Lupe just jumps in

[belleleewest2012]

YEAH THESE HAVE GOT TO BE THE LYRICS OF A THUG... FUCK FOX!! COMMON IS ONE OF THE MOST PROLIFIC RAPPERS WE HAVE!! WE LOVE YOU COMMON AND WE'RE NOT GOING TO BELIEVE SOME PEOPLE WHO HAVE NEVER BOUGHT A CD OR LISTENED TO A SONG LIKE THE LIGHT, THE PEOPLE, AND THE CORNER AND THIS!!!! COMMON IS NOT A THUG!!!!

[ReedHogar]

Thumbs up if you'd kill for a second verse....

[SteveTheCornerstone]

You can tell Kanye wrote this cause I can hear him rapping it in my head. Good poetry.

[pieguy264]

This album was to slow, but this song is mad dope!

[iMReCKLeSS22]

Amazing, Thats All I Gotta Say

[TheBigJinglz]

does somebody know where the sample is from?

[kabol69]

i want to know the song cause the shit is funky as fuck. that real music right there and iam so glad artist like kanye and common are doing what they are doing. music has lost its soul and all black folks know what iam talking about.

[AmunRaAnkn826]

GO STAND UP!!!

[jorgeandliz12]

kanye wrote this

[sneijderman]

@jorgeandliz12 no he didn't he just arranged it but it is sampled from Gil Scott Heron - home is where hatred is

[pacfolife90]

when has common acted homo?? dumbass description but real talk this song is some deep poetry..hip hop at its finest

[nooki1g]

Dj rashad jo made a raw ass footwork traxx off dis

[POOPIEDELUXE]

Kanye is a genius for this instrumental

[Orf]

@POOPIEDELUXE he just looped a Gil Scott Heron song!

[Sandman7414]

dopest song eva. i wish it was longer

[supreme199999]

"mad homo" does not necessarily means gay. i think atribecalledely was just saying sometimes common acts a little different, but this song redeems hisself.

[Brendanolis4]

I agree with a TribeCalledEly.... jk i dont listen to Common that much

[Great0ne1]

This song is awesome. The description ruins it though. ATribeCalledEly, I'm not disrespecting you, but why do you think Common is "homo." He's been consistently putting out good work, and he hasn't changed anything. He's been acting too. But when it comes to Common rapping he is the same, from I Used To Love H.E.R. to Universal Mind Control Common remains ill.

[HasWBush]

"The young smoke grass in grassless jungle..Rubberband'd together in casteless bundles."

"Revolution aint a game,it's another name,for life fightin,someone to stay in their corner like Mike Tyson."

Two of the realest statements I've heard and lived..Viva La Common.

[reesesncreme]

Atribecalledely, how exactly does he act like a homosexual? what an ignorant, homophobic statement.

[ctdynastycf22]

oohhh shaddap

[reesesncreme]

so what, do you act "straight"?

[ctdynastycf22]

i'm not disagreeing with you, i'm just saying no one wants to hear you whining

[reesesncreme]

then dont read. get on everyone else here then too. im not the only one who said something. If someone disrespects an artist you like, or makes an ignorant comment, you're not gonna say something? Complacence?

[Great0ne1]

exactly.

[thekingflip]

chicago stand up

[jordan484]

@thekingflip To bad the bulls didn't.LOL! They're a good team tho!

[Becoming7]

144,000

[matt4c4]

when you're not acting mad homo, you can put up good songs from a good artist

[DetectiveBlacksmith]

I wish this song made the cut on "Be". I would rather hear it there than on Late Registration =/

[lylelammers]

me too then maybe theyd hava a live version on youtube but why is it suddenly cool to make fun of common while still complimenting his rapping

[DetectiveBlacksmith]

wait what..?

[lylelammers]

if its on his cd hes more likely to do a live version than if its another guys cd

[slickkapone]

last time i went home, it was not a good thing...they called me a bitch for moving and then tried to blow my head off at a gas station...wow, doing something positive can get you killed back HOME..

[xXxdamonstaxXx]

this song would be better if longer

[okiebamaman]

"HYPES fighting for HITS 2 HEIGHTIN they HELL

Dont he know he can only get as high as he fell?!" classic line!!!!

[KPrime05]

I'm so used to hearing "crack music" follow this song immediately after this one ends.

[ATribeCalledEly]

I'm the same way

[WeThePeopleInc]

@ATribeCalledEly LOL

[ATribeCalledEly]

lol @ all these common fans getting upset

[saucy05]

you are not worthy of posting his videos.

[TheAbyssinia]

"the young smoke gras in grasless jungles" xD

[TheAbyssinia]

"the young smoke gras in grasless jungles" xD

[kanditruckkiss1]

This man is classy and clean. Please keep hating it is motivation for the good black men in this world. Yes he is a good black man. This is what rappers should be like

[donjohnson32]

haha mad homo...

nice

[grah55]

Lol mad homo... If you're not wearing baggy pants, young white people think you're gay. WARNING!

Anyway, this song pwnsface. Short but good.

[ATribeCalledEly]

I need the pants well below the waist, god damn it

[grah55]

I'm happy you're not mad with my comment on you. Here's the other half:

This doesn't do much to help the argument that if you're a white teenager, you're obviously a douchebag. Aren't you glad I didn't say that?

[ATribeCalledEly]

The beautiful thing about being a douchebag is that I dont give a shit what you think.

But have a nice day.

[Jessenator]

I don't see what's so mad homo about him...

[verstylez92]

ATribeCalledEly... you shuld go suck a dick u bitch made faggot... how does he act gay?

[ATribeCalledEly]

lmao what'd I do to your bitch ass?

[Marvelman73]

He's mad about tha vid. description.

[ATribeCalledEly]

oh lol my bad.

I dont feel the need to defend the description, it speaks for itself

[ATribeCalledEly]

Resurrection is my favorite

[Mellinium8791]

If this song were any longer I would need a box of tissues. Way to real!!!!

[Abajado]

you should listen to the song he sampled it from Home is where the hatred is by Gil Scott Heron it well take you away

[sharaifjones]

This beat is so infectious! Com completely rocked it. I wish this was 15 verses long!

[Thebloodinblue]

i need this instrumental. amazing song

[joecool3bx]

at first i wasnt really feelin the way kanye sampled the Heron track.. but by the 2nd listen it grew on me. Common ripped it lyricly too. Love it!

[Crimmyboy]

I like this song.

[deemcq23]

wow beat is amzaing very cool sample from anther song

[loosestudios]

Gil Scott-Heron's, off of "Pieces of Man," the song "Home is Where the Hatred Is." Sampled by Kanye on the song "My Way Home" with Common. Enjoy! Its on you Tube

[willlliw]

its weird how kanye never speaks on his own song.

[ATribeCalledEly]

I think it fit in the album, I dont think it fits Kanye's style to rap on it

[willlliw]

its an awesome song, im not insulting it

[ATribeCalledEly]

I understand lol, simply commenting on why I think he didnt rap on it

[duckay]

This song is basically just gil scott herons song.. with a slower beat. and the kanye version haha.

[Abajado]

Commons cool i think BE is his best album

[ATribeCalledEly]

you think wrong then

[DramaMC]

what do you think commons best album is then?

[ccpimps]

common one of the only real mc's in the game
