Common or Memorex? · by Rafi Kam
At a Philaflava forum thread about the next Common album “Finding Forever”, Oh Word’s own R.H.S. proves once and for all that he is Common’s ghostwriter with this chameleon-like display:
I met this old jazz player, he was god cipher divine
but drank his life away so never did shine
except as a shoeshine boy, now Shyne is locked down
I’m tryna tell these vice lords to put the nines and glocks down
something like Heather B., Kanye blessed me heavenly
the streets is paradise lost, tykes pack weaponry,
I bumped into an ex-lover, she said her new man beat her
the world is cold for Black folks, God needs to fix the heater
I seen my aunt frettin’ over her cell phone bill
while mah cuz rots in his cell all alone still
At the mall shopping for courodroy I met a fan
she said the times they are-a-changin’ so you gotta make plans
Ain’t it a vision of perfection when a wiz drops wisdom?
R.I.P. to Jay-Dee for his pioneering rhythms
It’s the struggle ya’ll
We want to see you do your own version of “Secret Wars”. That’s what’s up.

Impressive! 21st Century Com and this imitation remind me of a recent SNL skit parodying Good Times: just a constant stream of riduculous hard-luck events.

Damn homie. A year later and that verse could pretty much fit on Common’s first single. That’s wassup.

Man, I had forgotten about this. I still dig the “wiz drops wisdom” line.
I think this is more “Black Maybe” than it is “The People.” Oddly, I actually like both songs.
