Common finally in the spotlight

"He is definitely under rated"


Common finally in the spotlight!

Common will be one of the faces of converse. They are celebrating their 100 year anniversary and they want Common to participate in their ad campaign this year. Along with other influential faces in the music industry like James Dean, Billie Joe Armstrong, and female rocker Joan Jett. The campaign is going to be called “Connectivity” and it will be shown in about 75 countries around Europe, Asia, and the United States.

I can honestly say that in so proud of Common. He has finally been getting the attention he really deserves. Now when you mention Common’s name you can say “Grammy award winner”. He has been around since the early 90’s; his music career is almost as old as me. He is known for big hits like, The light, Go, The food, Real People, Testify, The Corner, and the list goes on. That why I am so surprised to hear that he is still receiving awards for best new artist. He is definitely under rated. He is one of the best lyricists in hip hop! Why is he not on BET honors? They recognized Tyra before they even breathed on Common!


Anywho….. Basically Common is a musical genius, and he is one of my fav’s. He gets nothing but respect in my book. He’s intellectual, smart, and sexy as hell. Need I say more? So big up’s to Common!
