Seriously disappointing. It could be the beggining of the end. Say it ain’t so.

Most of americans, especially afro ones is ignorant and not open minded to accept that kind of sound.

For a man that defines HIP-HOP it is ok cause you are trying to take HIP-HOP back to its breakdance glory. For us Common Sense heads it is too far from what a normal Common song sounds like. If any direction I would like to see Common go is into more raw getting in the booth and spittin’ common sense like corner, real chi town street shit. Please Com-Man give us a list full of bangers!!! Holla @ ya boi!!!

Can’t help but agree with the naysayers. Most musicians are supposed to demonstrate some growth as they get older. This a young person’s song performed by a man who is, let’s be realistic here, getting on in hip hop terms. Sounds like he’s experiencing a mid-career crisis. Where’s the astute social commentary that we’ve come to know and love?

Here we go, the hiphop elitist …Dont do that ..dont make that song dont take a chance ..and god sake dont have fun…Dont make nothing that sounds like this or that??? For fuckin heavens sake give it up and go back and live in 88..oh by the fuckin way silly asses ..this song actually feels like 85 0r 88..this is hiphop in the tradition of Afrika Bambata..(I’m sure I spelled that wrong)…You all can call Com a sell out ..You’re just mad you can’t buy in…I’m going to lace up my shell toes, throw the card board on the concrete and get my break-dance on Haters…this is nice

That hook is WACK.

Com, I know you are reading this. Don’t go out like that. If you are gonna do it, do it all the way fam. This obviously ain’t just a song for the core, so make a fuckkin hit for the rest of the folks will ya.

From a Common Sense fan since the early days of Ressurection, this is a horrible day for me. This song is the worst.
