Video: Common Interview w/ Substantial
Actor and hip-hop recording artist Common sits down with QN5 recording artist Substantial after a performance in Baltimore, MD at the Sonar. Common speaks about his parent’s influences, DMV artist and talks about his favorite rappers of today.
Props to Tunji. The next step might be getting Com & Talib back in the studio. Maybe even track down the elusive Madlib (c) Kweli.

AllHipHop.com: As far as 50 what are your thoughts now?
Cam’ron: I mean everybody knows I’m back, I’m back in the building, everybody knows that I’m back. Whatever was said when I wasn’t here, cool, but I’m back and you know I have no problem addressing any problem when a problem comes to me. It doesn’t matter who it is, but right now I see he got beef going on with Rick Ross right now. That’s going on, but I’m here. Right now it’s quiet. I’ll let them finish doing what they’re doing and when it comes around to me – if it gets to me – I’ll be ready.

^Wrong. Your initial embarrassment arose when you thought the Torture Rack was some type of “device”. You were called out on it, and feeling insecure and embarrassed, the natural retort was to say “wrestling is for homos”. Since you had no way to refute your lack of knowledge of somethin’, you used the “ayo” meter as your crutch and you’re still tryin’ to run with it. But we know that it was just a cover-up of your WWF fail. Now either you can admit that you was wrong and say, fuck it, w/e w/e. OR, option B and continue to use the ayo crutch. Or C, be prepared to call me outta my name or insult me since I know that’s the “usual” tactic of defense.
A, B, or C… Jimmy crack corn because I really don’t give a fuck. Just stating the facts.

concept: good concept backed up by stong lyrics
content: very strong content the melody meshes well with what you’re spitting
instrumental: good selection like the harmonizing in the background.
delivery is boisterous, but the flow is too consistent, and does’nt really switch up at all.
overall, dope.

^LOL. Sport? GTFOH. That shit is a soap opera for men/teens/kids. I haven’t watched wrestling in YEARS.
I don’t know what’s goin’ in wrestling right now and could give 2 dookies. My retort wasn’t to defend wrasslin, per se, but to acknowledge that it’s nothin’ wrong with being… wrong.

>>nigga please. i used to watch wrestling from like 6 -10. i have no knowledge of some move cuz i thought it was gay by 11.
^That may be well and true. But reading about you pulling some mystical S&M object from under an imaginary ring was comical, yet doesn’t cover up the fact that you were wrong. That’s all I was sayin’.
>>i can’t tell. and ya fact are backwards. just blog nigga.
^I don’t blog, I comment. God forbid I don’t wanna end up in your torture rack.
