Common’s “Only The Brave” Campaign w/ Diesel

Lonnie is recruiting Big Sean, Nipsey Hussle, Vado and Donnis for this campaign with Diesel’s new “Only The Brave” fragrance. Beginning this week, they will be releasing a video series following the lives and back stories of these artists and will “cast light on the personal stories, challenges, and people that have made them the men they are today.” It will all culminate in a VIP concert in NYC on October 12th, that will air on MTV2, where they will share the stage with Common for the first time.

Hit the jump to see Comm quickly talk about it in a short flipcam vid for the Facebook Fan Page. (Might be for US residents only.)

(Say word they designed the bottle in the form of a clenched fist.)

Rashid won.

    co-sign Vado. it’s his flow

    and co-sign this:

    >> I was very underwhelmed by all of their verses. They seemed to be going for that “I can rap with no effort and it’s better than anyone else” but it came off ass disinterest in their own deliveries.

    and this:

    >> Nowadays, though, Royce fell too in love with the punch lines. Some of his best songs had few, if any punch lines.

    ^ so true. I can barely listen to Royce anymore

    Co-sign eskay, eLZhi is unfuckwitable, but Black Milk definitely deserves equal credit for being able to hold his own with these two, every time they rap together.

    HUH?

  23. Hopp Says:

    lol @ Yung Berg dissing Soulja Boy while premiering his take on the Big Sean flow.

    That boy stays losing. He’s a professional at it already. Not Charles Hamilton level yet, but on his way.

    =====================================
    The opening lines on that song epitomizes the reason people hate Young Berg.

    But the hook epitomizes the reason he’s still got a career.

    ^^^

    *dead* at Atlanta being synonymous with gay now

    “Big beats, hit streets, see gangsta’s roamin’
    And parties dont stop til’ eight in the mornin’” (c) that lil’ old guy

  26. Hopp Says:

    ” he’s still got a career. ”

    Does he ?

  27. dos equis Says:

    If ever there’s a movie made about Matt Leinhart (which will never happen) Rob Lowe would be the perfect actor to play Leinart. Both probably have about the same quarterback skills

  28. AmpGeez a.k.a. Smoke Greene Says:

    ” he’s still got a career. ”

    Does he ?
    ==============
    He ain’t over yet.
    As long as he’s got Rob Holiday making the beats and he’s still writing dope hooks, dude’s got a fighter’s chance of scoring another hit.

    And I think he’s still got his deal.

  29. Jeezy The Snowman Says:

    go young on ‘em
    Jizzle how the fuck its 2010 and you payin’ Patrick Ewing?

    If you count consistency in getting beaten up and clowned on then yes.

    Is Ski Beatz an in-house DJ for Creative Control?

  34. AmpGeez a.k.a. Smoke Greene Says:

    Yung Berg is realer then Rick Ross

  35. Hopp Says:

    ” Yung Berg is realer then Rick Ross ”

    Maybe. But Berg is a walking failure and Ross music is better.

  36. No_neva-eva Says:

    This post is why Nah Right is wack.

    Common is endorsing a cologne?

    How does that deserve a post?

    You’d think is a Lil B diss judging by the name, but don’t mistake the targets.

    Deadly Medley (f/Royce Da 5’9″ & Elzhi) >>>>

    And Soulja Boy took pictures wearing Berg’s chain so the shots are kinda warranted.

    >> HUH?

    song could have been better, tbh. doesn’t take away from the fact that eLZhi is nice as fuck and Black Milk can hold his own.

    Royce on the other hand…

  46. AmpGeez a.k.a. Smoke Greene Says:

    Ross stole his name from the real Rick Ross, his beard from Freeway, Boss from Slim Thug & his swagger from Jeezy.

    Cause he’d been rapping for years with zero success until he bit Jeezy wholesale on Hustlin’

    ======================================
    I actually think he’s a dickhead. For someone to be so focused on getting love from females, he says the worst shit imaginable.

    But I do think the kid is a talent and he’s just lacking the proper guidance.

    You can’t deny his star quality.

    While cats like Lloyd Banks look like they should be packing bags at the local Pioneer.

  52. Marv Says:

    Damn. I just checked twitter.com/50cent dude be typing a lot of bull like he some typea internet goon. Damn 50 get a grip!

  53. AmpGeez a.k.a. Smoke Greene Says:

    I really don’t believe that’s 50.

    At least I hope it isn’t.
