  • Common deadly lyrically

  • Just cuz u sell a lot of albums doesn't mean ur talented. Lil wayne/drake wouldn't cut it as hype men for nas/common

  • This is one of the most beautiful songs I ever hear....that relationship died for u to be born.....for you to grow he had to go so what u stopping him for. I fell in love with Common after I heard this song.

  • Man, now I got to find lilbeaveymac's comment. This might take a while.

  • @thenewageriseth what is wrong can i help ??? this is a work of art but being of cherokee grand parents and spent time on the reservation i guess i just couldnt hold myself back with hate

  • this is a gay rap song,this isnt ghetto at all,this dude is whitewashed commercial garbage.

  • @lilbeaveymac

    Wow, you missed the whole point of these lyrics. FYI: The little insecure, mindless boys that rap about being "hardcore" such as their bling, guns, money, hoes, rims, niggas, jail, sex you down, smoking blunts, so-called "Keeping It Real" is anything but real. It's like McDonalds, it's diarrhea bullshit for the masses. The rap in this song by "Common" is on a very deep, spiritual, superior level, in which you are too small minded to get.

  • @MrJuly1990ish no its just a gay song,period.the flow sucks,the lyrics sucks,and ikt doesnt knock.

    i dont listen to rap for intelligence,i like the ignorance of it,thats the whole appeal.

    you cant bump common in your ride,you can bump some lil boosie though.....

  • @lilbeaveymac If you like rap for the ignorance of it, than I don't really like you, because you're the type of person who's stopping the progress that amazing rappers like Nas, Lupe, Jay Electronica (Ms. Badu's boo), Common Sense, Yasiin Bey, Talib Kweil, the Mighty Ms. Lauryn and many others have been talking about for decades. And its this foresight written by these unbelievable poets that show both what is and what will be. These future is now, so who's advice are you taking?

  • @mkadoza Nas is boring,and all these rappers you are naming obviously are not that appealing since they cant pack a stadium like Weezy.Lil Wayne IS the future of rap.period.

  • @lilbeaveymac haha come on bro.. you can't be serious with that bullshit

  • @lilbeaveymac You sound dumb as hell...how old are you 15?? WTF..lol

  • @MrJuly1990ish You are so damn right

  • @MrJuly1990ish lol, rapping bout bling, guns, money, hoes, rims is ghetto. I thought when ppl are in the ghetto they aren't rich.

  • @lilbeaveymac If you feel that way about his music i got no fuckin idea what brought you to common in the first place. shit you can get out of here and return back to your fake ass wonderland what you call hiphop. go listen to wayne or somethin....

  • @lilbeaveymac Who gives a fuck if it's ghetto or not do you like the son or not yes...??? have a cooke and a smile and shut the fuck up.....!!!!! and if you don't you still searched common's name puuussaaaayyy....!!!!

  • @lilbeaveymac The song sounds good. Rappers like Common and Pete Rock inspire me as they don't try to conform to what ppl like you want.

    This is definitely not whitewashed and music is music, White and Black ppl make good music.

  • @lilbeaveymac How is lil wayne not commercial? Lol. And he is definitely more whitewashed too, half of his fans are just white teens.

  • My Lord, I remember this one, i used to spit this one thru n thru. Common or Common Sense, still an inspirational fatherly figure.

  • I dont care if my famz snaps cuz it happend , Ima stay and take care of her after hearing this song

  • the sound on this video is weak. vevo turn it up!

  • The message of this song is so deep.. Now THIS ..is real music.

  • QUE CLASE, QUE ESTILO, HIP HOP REAL!! I love this song!!

  • Only Common could pull off that vest he's rockin' at 1:37

  • macy gray looks like a character from star wars. good song though

  • i lOvE Dis And Macy Gray did DAt

  • thowback track but good music nontheless!!!!!!!!!!!

  • the best song of all

  • This should have more hits

  • Comment removed

  • Finally an ad about good music lol

  • 13 people wont get raptured

  • Fuck this lame fuck common. This ain't no muthafuckin music. Not this fool but macy gray cool.

  • @playahaterable whats wrong with Common? he's a good man

  • @Eloybeast3 I met common in person he did somethin I certainly didn't like.

  • hearing this instantly takes me back to when i was 14

  • Hey I make raps on youtube, if ya wanne come check my channel out. I'm sure ya wont waste ya time:)

  • [good song...and video] =]

  • This is crap. Especially the beat.

  • @mjoseph1 You came all the way on this page... to say that lol.

  • @masterscheme1 <------ [lol] didn't you come all the way to the devils pie video to talk B.S?? [hypocrite]... [contradiction] [lol]

  • @jezzikaRabbitt Actually I came here to do what normal people do when they search for a song they like on you tube. I came here to listen to it. Then saw someone posted a trollish statement who obviously came here to take shit. Moron (lol)

  • @masterscheme1 <----[lol] you are the biggest TROLL on here [lol]....dumb dirty roach

  • @jezzikaRabbitt lol Actually I'm just trolling you. The rest of the people on here actually came here to enjoy this song. So yeah I'm trolling a troll. And the devil's pie video? I think you have me confused with someone else. I have that song on my play list as well. Its one of my favs.

  • @masterscheme1 Oh i'm a troll because i said [good movie]...that makes alot of sense [lol] just because [you] don't like something, doesn't mean everyone else has to not like it. my opinion is mine...what i like. i like. i don't need to hear your stupid opinions & i don't know why you even directed them at me. [common sense]!! get some!...shut ur devil pie hole next time, & direct that b.s to the people talking b.s, if you really feel like attacking someone [DUH!]

  • @jezzikaRabbitt I wasn't trolling you with my initial statement to you. I was just giving my opinion on the movie. Not criticizing your view on it. Then you came and trolled me.

  • @masterscheme1 <------You are a filthy Liar! [lol] just admit it.....[you trolled because you want me]...well you can't have me :P

  • @jezzikaRabbitt Well u seem as if your a very angry person. I never said you were a troll for saying good movie. You said that and I gave u my opinion people usually do that sort of stuff on you tube and I also didn't do it in a way that wasn't offensive but more discussion based. then you got mad and then trolled me on the macy gray song lol. Because your an angry rabbit. Smoke some weed or take some zoloft of something (lol). I wasn't trying to troll you at first but you drew first blood.

  • @masterscheme1 Well jessika rabbit is prolly the sexiest cartoon character I've ever seen. If you look anything like her, we prolly wouldn't be fighting I'd prolly try to bag you. But with that said, you gotta learn to chill girl and be as cool as this song. Obviously we like the same music. I just didn't like the movie... granted personally I liked the actors in them.

  • @masterscheme1 I'm the [feisty] version [grin]~and my sexy BF loves it :P [lol] i am chill....[till me buttons are pushed]~i say you trolled bc you came at me in very condescending way with you "lol's" between your opinionated statement [if i'm wrong then i must be right] [lol]

  • @masterscheme1 [yes]...i do like the roots and dub fx =] you should try to be nicer with your opinions...[esp. with the ladies]...we do get pms sometimes, ya know :P [lol]

  • @jezzikaRabbitt If you are talking about the movie belly on the other hand yes I thought that movie was shitty based on the acting. I never criticized a person... like you did lol.

  • @masterscheme1

    The original is what I like not this haha

  • Is Common wearing makeup?

  • This was my joint!!

  • I love this cut, Common really rocks it. Plus, this was the first time Macy Gray sounded good to me, it was great use of her unique sound.

  • If you like artists like Lupe Fiasco, Mos Def, Nas, and J. Cole, I think you'll like my music too. Check out my music videos for my singles "Art Exhibit” and “Dedication”, and my single "Rhythm & Poetry” (feat. Diem and eKZ), and tell me what you think. Any feedback is appreciated. And I promise I don't disappoint.

  • thank u man 4 the GOOD music u r the real lagent

  • Hey, I’m a young artist, & I would really appreciate it if everyone would check out my cover of Michael Bublé’s “You’re Nobody till Somebody Loves You.” Although I’m knowledgeable that Michael Bublé was not the first to record the song, my version was inspired by his rendition, nonetheless. I promise you that you will not regret giving my version of the song a listen, & it will truly knock you off of your feet! So please listen & enjoy! Thanks!

  • IS this what fox news talking about?????? they wouldnt know if positive bite them in their behinds LOL

  • Typical fn punk shit talkin ignorant thug. LOL spinge don't know the mid east import of oil into the U.S. equates to less than 20% of total imported oil. Just an angry loser punk brought to the top by other angry loser fucks and you are in droves!

  • @8MCDonalds8 How much is 20 percent of the world's imported oil worth in the trillions? Better yet how much is it worth when china is buying up all the energy including all the rights to the oil that iraq was not goin to to sell us because they have china as their customer? lol. Or better yet how much is it worth if there is a fear that oil is goin to run out? I appreciate the open racists at least they say what they mean, stop witht he "angry looser fucks who are in drones and just say nigger.

  • @8MCDonalds8 Do you know how much gas prices would jump if america lost that 20 percent?????? lol use your brain man. Watch the news....not faux news lol. BBC international, pbs etc.

  • its sooo looks like coolio did Macys hair dosent it? Common is def one the best mcs ever...

  • is he wearing Macy's clothes? And did Coolio do Macy's hair? huh?

  • d'angelo's version was better

  • This song made me cry

  • if i was ever lucky enough to meet a man comparable to common...wow..

  • ~I really like this~ true realness like back in day~

  • My son's father abandoned me when I was 5 weeks pregnant so I decided to forget dating altogether so that I could just pour all of my love into my new little son...the lyrics in this song give me strength when I start to feel sad about being alone for awhile-When he says "that relationship died so you could be born"-what I thought was the end of the world for me proved to be a re-birth and a moment to re-invent myself spiritually and as a proud and blessed new mom-I am so happy

  • @negrita474 good for you. I know it's a tough journey but worth it for your new little man! congrats mama!

  • @negrita474 God bless u and ur son

  • @negrita474 I really enjoyed reading this post. "re-invent myself spiritually"

  • @negrita474 GIRL I FEEL YOU similar story. this song is sooo uplifting it activates my chakras and has me on my single mom grind. I believe love isnt in the cards for me either so i just focus on my daughter if it wasnt for her id be blowin in the wind. She is my rebirth the old me is gone and a phoenix emerges ya feel me. lol God bless you and your child

I'm teary-eyed, I shed my tears for the real hip-hop because it's dead in 2011..Common come out with a new album and show them they ain't nothin'!

    These beats, the rhymes...are bomb as hell and I love it!

  • Comment removed

  • !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • are you guys kidding? macy gray has a gratefull voice!!

  • I love Common, Macy Gray not so much...I like the Family Stand version better.

  • I don't like this version. One with Deangelo is hot.

  • Common is 1 in a billion...

  • @lilhavin Word. Common is that dude. I was watchin a bunch of his videos back to back today on vh1 soul. Dude definitely has a classic level catalog.

    Almost 2 decades pretty much in the game and still very relevant!

  • @BORNcrisis Well said man! I met Common about 3 months ago. Dude isn't ONLY a great rapper/legend, but a great person as well.

  • Common World famous Rapper & Actor is working on new Jazz Album. b

    nice 2 c Common b opening performer 4 Sade Concert in LA 2011.Wow! mmm:) Just a thought! lol Dj Smooth : )

  • i hate macy grays voice but this is wut rap should b!

  • Did U Know Some Stars In the Sky Are Not There? Why?.................. Find Out On My Featured Video. "Stars" Thanks!!

  • very nice video.. macy gray is a real doll in this video. Interesting version of this song

  • Hey, If You Like Concept HipHop Like This, Plz Click Out My Song "Stars.." Thanks!

  • This is the reason that some people still have respect for Africans Americans. Soul musicians!!!!

  • @RascoMusic man take that racist shit outta here

  • They need to play music like this on the radio...I am so sick of hearing what's considered the black anthem for the summer like "chicken noodle soup" and the lemonade shit that soulja boy and whoever made...I'm sick of hearing Gucci mane say "bbuuurrr"...

    music is getting better though and people are sick of hearing music about money, bitches and cars so, at some people, people just won't listen to garbage or the radio.

  • @aaishasmusic1963 lol, so true bro!

  • @aaishasmusic1963 its most likely a licencing issue but good point

  • @aaishasmusic1963 I think when people hear that Soulja boy and chicken soup type music, it makes less talented people feel like they can be rappers too, or that the raps that they make are just as good as that. I like Gucci, mainly because he is funny. I dont think a lot of people would ever get sick of hearing about money, bitches and cars, etc.. Many rappers rap about what they, and many others really do. Many people want to hear about what they know, do and how they live.Change the source

  • @aaishasmusic1963 Preach brother preach!

  • @seth198989 Dude....it's "sister"...God bless you!!

  • @aaishasmusic1963 My bad :/ sorry but i agree

  • @aaishasmusic1963 I Agree 100% !

  • 165,000 views is a horrible understatement of how good this song actually is.

  • @EmphBlue

    Its 283,940 now, not correcting you, just pointing out how popular this video has gotten in less then a year, looks like people are starting to want good music again

  • @EmphBlue That proves that we have a great music taste.

  • Rest in Peace JAY

  • memba this!

  • I prefer D'angelo version. much much more.

  • the world is full of gays

  • Wow this song is awsome great colaboration

    Music is a gift that is Sacred LOVE't

  • like this & Macy Gray is great

  • yo where the hell can u find this song to download?

  • @XxStillsxX the US iTunes has this version. I bought 'Like Water For Chocolate' CD and it has the slower sounding version of this song, this is more like the remix.

  • Too deep. I'm feeling this song. I really relate to this song. Anything relating to God's Wisdom, has my undivided attention. TOO BAD though, it's low in volume. God bless this song. REALISM, in true word flow. No cussing, more thoughts addressed. I love this.

  • I miss THIS COMMON..and the days when music still had something to say

  • i love commons music and his style. tho i gta question wat he wearing, but then again, everybody reps their own style .
