Wow! Common is TORE UP in this video! (lol) You can tell he's super stoned!
But I have much respect for everything he's saying here, because he's right: all those people in the music industry project things through media and send messages about what's cool and what's not. If more of them stopped wearing fur coats, and bragging about their "gators" and stuff, maybe we'd see a trend in people giving a d*mn about animals, but... one can only hope. :-(
Very nice. Come check out my Common interview April 1, 2010 featuring his new Jazz music and new movie. Also his Non-Profit organization commongroundfoundation
i would be hard for me to abandon meat altogether but i do feel stronger more alive and more in tune with the world when i eat veggies fruits and drink water.
That video should do it, but some interesting facts too goveg (dot) com/theissues.asp. For other animals and if we are herbivores by nature try flesh raw and baby cow milk is for baby cows not adult men. search vegan thats a funny video.
though we are animals as well, our complex brains, aware nature, and understanding of their pain are reasons we shouldn't. in layman's terms: we know better.
Very well said, This is obviously a reasonable, intelligent person who is working and contributing to the over all good of the world and all of us in it.
@UserRED13 horrible?!!! stop being ignorant for your self and become better man.i was slave to my tongue for my past life but now i am master of my senses. we don't have to eat dead body's to survive it is just bad habit. live gives life and dead brings death if you don't believe than try you have all my support. much love!
No disrespect but our ancestors did not eat meat until there were taken as slaves and were forced to eat meat. They ate Earth food unlike now. Our diet is til this day based on the food that was forced on our ancestors and we call it "Soul Food" PORK, CORNBREAD, and CHITTERLINGS. Come on think about it that was the food the "slave master" didn't want.
fish is "meat" but regardless of that, there is a whole lot of suffering that goes on with the production of dairy products and the cows are absolutely killed when they are "spent" (meaning they have been raped and tortured so much, for so long, that they are no longer economically beneficial to the animal exploiter).
fish are sentient beings that feel pain and pleasure and have complex relationships with one another. not to mention the environmental problems with fishing and "bycatch".
made me laugh @ this video! my names Mia, kinda feelin bored if any1 wants to join me on cam or wana chat i will be signed on at __ FriendlyFlirts(.COM) __ my user ID there is Mia_zoifboivq chat soon xx its FR33 to j0in! mwah
lol it's funny how he said peace at the end and then did the devil sign. But watever i don't believe in that stuff but i do believe that we shouldn't be torturing and slaughtering animals for our own pleasures. So right on. I'm proud that i'm a vegan.

so to top this off, common might be lieng about being a vegetarian lol i don't know...he sounds like hes full of shit when he says soy cheese on a veggie pizza lol that sounds nasty those veggie burgers suck dude im a vegetarian but i make like salads mix it wit shit and good stuff with cheese but I MAY eat a egg every once in a while or somethin thats the only meat though really
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
lmao this nigga said soy cheese though..IS EATING CHEESE AGAINST BEING VEGETARIAN?! WTF?! the cows give us cheese wtf is wrong with that were not killin um for it..maybe hes a "vegan" lol
Wow, you're retarted. He said SOY CHEESE. A Soybean does not come from an animal, douche. Next time, open your ears and listen before you regurgitate dumbass comments.
I recently saw common wearing a leather jacket though. Ya know, leather comes from cows. That is one thing i think common DOESN'T know though and someone should inform him.
VEGAN's don't wear leather and I don't think Common was ever a Vegan I think he was just a vegetarian. Also he has recently started eating seafood...he's not longer vegetarian- he's a pescatarian.
It takes a real man to swim against the tide like he is doing, he has definitely impressed me. Sounds like he is speaking from the heart. Thanks for posting this!

FUCK THE FOLLOWING RAPPERS...COMMON, NAS,TALIB KWELI MOS DEF,THE ROOTS, DEAD PREZ, ZION I,AND ALL THE CONCIOUS RAPPERS MAKING GOODY GOODY MUSIC..THEY FUCKING PUSSY'S AND MAKE NO MONEY...SHOUT OUT TO THE REAL NIGGAS...50, YOUNG BUCK,TIP ,TRU LIFE,CUBAN LINK
U r hands down the most retarded muthafuka on youtube all the rappers u said can get fuked r like the best lyrical rappers these days. wats wrong with not saying 'fuk yo grandma steal that bitches money jack that hoes car and crash it into her tombstone than piss on the remains' gangsta shit was kool bak in the 80's and 90's but its been overplayed.
Lets compare these rappers lyrically Talib: We aint havin that reachin past the star status that you grabbin at ,My battle raps blast your ass back to your natural habitat. Weezy
'My muscle is in tact, My biceps and triceps is AYYYE YESSS'
THIS IS OLD as dirt. 5 years old homie. "Treating animals with love and respect.." to certain extent. LOL! dawg... c'mon!!! I KNOW he's not as gung-ho about that shit now. TRUST.
Animals are sentient beings too. They can feel,sense and perceive pain, fear,loneliness, etc. Factory farms treat animals like 'things'. They aren't just things. They are our brothers on this shared planet.
