im a metalhead but i miss the times when hip hop was good and when they called women "queens" like common and not today that call girls bitchez instead of queens...YEAH YEAH IM TALKINGOF LIL GAYNE!
This is definitive analogy and my favorite to date of Common's work.
To hip hop, I say, I hope you get well soon and I'll prob. still take you back cuz I love you and we have a history together and were soulmates. But I'm tired of waiting for you to clean up and stop turning tricks for a couple bucks. It's sad to see such a beautiful sista who used to help so many, now seem so in need of help h.e.r. self.
@MusicUnderstandsYou bitch u wack yo lame ass u could never spit rhymes more intense den dis man better check yo ass only thing dat was wack wuz yo moms pussy last nite dat shit wuz dry and stank jus like yo shrivlled up 2 inch dick bitch ass
I'll keep it real I love this song so much i recorded to the track. It's called I Miss Her. not quite the same subject but check it out if you're interested. I'm just trying to get the song out there, give it chance. Thanks. forgive the Spizzam
Like eminems " 25 to life " it sounds like hes talking about his ex wife but it was really about hip hop.. eminem always says hip hop is dead but i like new rap.. style changes and old rap sometimes gets boring, i dont find old hip hop boring but alot of people do
I still love her, but the kind of people she let in her soul, I'm sadly disappointed. But I know that someday, she will shine brightly, that she will be the center of my world again. But until that day comes, I will wait for her. I'll will always wait for H.E.R.
@GunBunnyShift There's still some good rappers. You got Immortal Technique, Lupe Fiasco, Tech N9ne, Vinnie Paz, and Eminem. Mobb deep and Nas sold out. Jay z always sucked :p
@xXxShyEMORozexXx ..and bleeds the soul. honestly this brings a great deal of sadness in my heart. id like to believe that hiphop is not dead just wounded. :(
Too bad he's contradicted himself by releasing his new universal mind track. Never thought someone who made a track like this would be a sell out. Go join a crew with the black eyed peas! Or even better acknowledge that track has no soul and come back to the real heads!!!
I think Common should add an extra verse to this song right now
it's been almost 20 years; alot has changed in hip-hop
this song will be relevant again if he adds another verse
