@US13100 Frankly both these women are demagogic. One is trying to argue that a rapper missed the mark by not rivaling robert frost. Also passively discrediting all forms of black culture. The other is peddling off the infantile and isolationist ramblings of common as an enlightened and unassailable black artist, simply misunderstood by the square white lady, while ignoring the 9/11 lyric. What is there to argue.

Looks like I'm not going to get any logical and sensible answers from idiot fans and supporters of Common, to why they're using racist comments about Martha MacCallum. I guess it's the stench from them kissing Common's ass for that long.

@US13100 Also, I'm not saying racist things about her so don't put what other people are doing on me.
-
@US13100 Why don't you actually come up with substantial PROOF about how he is a racist THUG instead of blanketed statements?
-
@boiwndrr Yes, you are. Same with these other retards who have been making racist comments about the news anchor. Why not start with that first, before continuing to kiss that racist THUG Common's ass.
-
@US13100 Also, I'm not kissing his ass. I'm just not going to let someone who is doing good things become defamed. Also, If your argument had any merit you wouldn't result to calling other people idiots or morons.

@US13100 Just because they are in the same genre doesn't mean there music has the same message. I never said it was offensive. I said a lot of rap is negative but Commons isn't and I listen to Common. also, you say kissing ass and THUG a lot. Do you know any other words?
Anyone who's ever actually listened to Common knows he always has a positive message and never talks about "killing cops" or anything "thug." Just because he's a rapper and they took a few quotes out of context they think they know everything he's about. Anyone who says otherwise needs to wake the f*** up. This man is a real poet and someone who actually tries to make rap a meaningful form of art. I'm disgusted by this bull.

This bitch and network is stupid and ignorant.
They are twisting his lyrics. If you listen to Common's music it's so inspirational and heartwarming.
