this was in the GOLDEN ERA as we know it
son was salty that them cali boys was running the game and people wanted vibes instead of listening to preaching about a whole lot of nothing
you know how people be complaining about the state of rap today?
son was doing this during the teenage years of hip hop
goes to show you people will bi*ch and moan about absolutely anything
the more he bi*ched and moaned the further it strayed from H.E.R.

LYTE said So when did you hear this song...?

when i first started listening to hip hop a decade ago? not sure what you're trying to get at
i'm pointing out how ridiculous the context is of him writing the song

It's actually dope
That's how dope music is made.
You feel a way about something you make a song about it.

That's how most art is created in general.

commons one of the rappity-rap n*ggas who can actually rap

we talking about the context

You just realized....



1000 slaps minimum deserved.

is this supposed to be a slight? i'm in my early 20s, i wasn't around when this first dropped
did i commit some sort of cardinal sin for not knowing the exact years of music before my time?

Me and my (west coast) n*ggas talk about this all the time lol

Classic track but Common was talking like a lil lame. Salty doper n*ggas were getting his lil crush and sh*t

I break in and SMACK n*ggaS

It was abt the West dumbing down the conscious era with the rise of the gangsta rap subgenre coming to the forefront... and Common felt like NWA was the prototype for the rest of the wild sh*t coming out of the west, the Blood and Crip albums, death Row's commercial Success, and then Cube at OG status, being the face of it...

Cube basically been trying to tell Common and other's to get the Beef-Stick for a nice while, particularly because of the Common Record...
as he addresses those general sentiments in "...Used to Love H.E.R." on this opus with the good brother Face...

they literally just introduced a new subgenre of rap, and son was salty

ushering in a new era is not "dumbing down" the previous

it's even more ridiculous because this was during the GOLDEN ERA

Yeah it’s a classic song but Common was on some hating sh*t riding them Eastcoast n*ggas d*cks

Real 90’s Chicago hip hop wasn’t even on no hippity hop/conscious sh*t he was on lol

It's like a breath of fresh air when BX actually posts hip hop sh*t in this section

Edit: OP you trippin tho n*gga this song is a classic, the beat

I think Common was moreso speakin on it from a substance matter which is understandable but I'm pretty sure Common don't feel the same today now that we've seen the real bottom of this sh*t (white bi*ches coming in the game rappin dumb sh*t, n*ggas making mockeries of the genre, etc.)

LYTE said So when did you hear this song...?

That's my question too...

That thread about hip hop forums from the 90s made me realize people have been complaining about the state of Hip hop since it began, Im sure they hated on sugar hill gang and bi*ched about Run dmc being too commercial too

when did i say the song wasn't a classic?

the substance sh*t is one of the biggest misconceptions of rap

the only sh*t without substance is people rapping about rapping itself

rapping about women weed and weather is still substance, it's part of life

n*ggas so stupid do understand concepts of songs.


Calling common preachy is hilarious.



You must not know bi*ch I’m Yoo came out after this lol

Yeah and Common started copping pleas saying he wasn't dissing the West in that BEEF DVD when he clearly was. Then he contradicted his stance when he said he fu*ked with Ice-T, Too $hort, King Tee, Compton's Most Wanted, etc.

Classic song/concept and still applies today with all this genocide music getting pushed. Spinning blocks, smoking dead opps, etc. I wish there was more of a balance.

i don't understand the personification of music?
do you think what he was doing in the song is rocket science?

calling common preachy is hilarious

the entire song is preachy and him bi*ching and moaning

there's all sorts of rap music, you just spending more time bi*ching and moaning instead of looking
