Lonnie Rashid Lynn, Jr.



Common, one of the most socially conscious / cleanest rappers out there is being protested by
1) someone who probably doesn't even understand the power + the message of Hip Hop
2) the awareness that is shared with spoken word
3) someone who thinks that COMMON, Lonnie Rashid Lynn, Jr., is a significant problem to be discussed.

Fuckin' ridiculous.

I like Jon Stewart's point about Bono and Bob Dylan. Whats the difference if Common went out to visit them vs making music about them?

And lets not EVEN go into the topic of COP KILLERS. please.

There are certainly bigger problems in the world to be discussing and making people aware about besides Common's resume. It's funny how he talks about what type of people should be allowed in the White House when some of the people in our own damn government are the most morally-corrupt people to lead our nation. Now those people are real problems.
