I'm not hatin' either. I have enjoyed Common a lot in the past, but I quit him some years ago because I was in a totally different kind of mindset, and I just stopped keeping up with him. This was around the time he did some commercial for some short-lived music discovery service with Afrika B.
Anyway, like I said, I'll check out some of this newer shit you guys are referring to. I have an open mind, and I honestly want to see the guy make great music.
Besides... if I hated all inspirational hip hop then I could toss my copy of Graduation in the trash. Which I am NOT going to do. So no hatin' goin' on here.
