@brian, this is directed to your comment "according to com, he would respect drake more about him being something he is not and rapping about guns and drugs" now see common is a classic rapper goes way back with real rappers such as ice t, mob deep etc. He did not once say he will have more respect for drake if he starts rapping about guns etc, he is just saying if someone is going to make a rap album, then make a rap album not a r+b one. Rappers that are main stream have made it hard for people to appreciate hip hop, that is why the real hip hop artists are underground because they stick to what hip hop is about, throwing singing into a rap album, correction making a rap album where it is mainly singing makes it hard to call it a hip hop album. Common is old school and to him this new generation of rap is quite sickening, less people appreciate hip hop these days because now its just for show.
