“You can ask why, people wanting me to keep dissing Canada Dry/I can’t do that”
Earlier this evening, V-103’s Ryan Cameron held a Q&A with Common at the Vanquish Lounge. Afterwards, Ryan threw up cue cards of random topics that he wanted Com to mention in his freestyle. Instigators. Ha!

corny
^ drakes music is corny u dumbfuck not com
Common should target rappers who dont freestyle for real. He’s got a skill that other rappers dont have the right to clam credit of; and that freestyling.
the ”beef” is corny to me… chill lol
Real freestyling exemplified. If you write a rap, its not a freestyle. I’m not a Common fan, still a rap expert, and freestyle acknowledger. Freestyles are not written and are impromptu without premeditation (of course the rapper has rights to referance); and freestyle is not a term that should be exchanged loosely because its a special skill.

What a cornball…….common losing respect for this dumb shit
You probably enjoy crossdressing rappers, skinny jeans, and rappers labeling writtens freestyles. Like I said, I’m not a Common fan. The freestyle was entertaining, and wasnt crap, nearly; was consistent and off the top like a real freestyle is. To counter your comment, Common is entertaining and solidifying a fanbase. People who label written raps freestyles are lame for trying to get credit theyre not due.

lol common looking desperate give it homie no one cares about your career no matter how many times you diss drake you will always be a boring rapper you lost homie this is what a so call legend career has come to lol dissing rappers for attention and sales you wack commom
when did com stoop to such lows, don’t be ducking like you never wanted nothing!
Now thats what I call a freestyle. Dope. Drake stans are mad tho. lol
SMH Why is Common lookin desperate
As beautiful as Common’s album was, let’s be honest, before Drake Common used to get 3 comments on RapRadar lol
Let’s be real
Desperate,this OLD NIGGA is making himself look really bad!
Drake > Common
My Ass > Common
what drakes done in his short career has surpassed your ten year career in music..stop dissing someone whos making a bigger impact in the music industry…you sold around 20x less then what drake did first week…give it up…you cant win this battle…you could come up with biggie ryhmes but you wont win…cuz you dont have enough fans..
Winning a battle has nothing to do with fans. Bar for bar, who insulted who the worst is who wins the battle. Freestyling is a skill, a form of its own, writing is its own category. Two different appreciations. If rappers are not going to freestyle and write a rhyme, then they dont get a freestylers credit because they dont have or didnt exemplify that skill. Nothings wrong with writing a rap, freestyling is not the same as writing a rap. I’m not a common fan, still, to correct you, winning a battle has nothing to do with how many fans you have. I can tell you are a follower (looking for the next trend to follow).
and another thing who gives a fuck about freestyling..why do i wanna hear rappers coming off the head with ryhmes that subpar…i rather have someone think about there ryhmes and come out with some creative,clever, witty shit…the dopest shit comes from rappers like fred the godson,hollow the don niggas that you know think about the shit they say and comes out riduculously dope…
I’m sorry, did I miss something?
How is Common stooping low? I’m a huge Drake but honestly Drake should have STFU. Why put yourself in a position when nobody even said your name, Wayne (How To Love), Wiz, Big Krit (Vent), even J.Cole (on Work Out) raps & have sung before but none of them ever took it personally. U didn’t see Wayne feelin any kind of way. Drake is 2 sensitive & honestly alot of people never paid attention to “Sweet” until Drake jumped bad. I’m over the whole thing. Kill nay-sayers off by being even more successful. Nuff said.

common is stooping low because he sublim dissed drake denied it then admitted to it then pretended like it wasnt because he was salty about serena or had kanye in his ear and that fag pusha followed suit first with dreams and then sweet freestyle then whenever they get asked about it they swear they werent dissing drake then com disses drake on some wackness talking about canada dry then realises how wack he is bein percieved by ppl double backs and ducks like he never wanted nothing after talking shit on the stay scheming track and calling drake out then comes up with some bullshit reasons why he started the beef changes the story like 5 times every time he gets asked its different reason only because he cant admit he was being a bitch and getting salty cos his lady was taken making him the soft one in reality (ironic) not to mention if you look at his music if drake is soft then common was the forefather of soft, then he tells rolling stone he likes drake and his music (ducking like he never wanted nothing) then he says he wants to fight drake dude is having a mid life crisis atleast keep it consistent, its like jay said on in the words of kanye
“Don’t ever fix your lips like collagen
Say something you gon end up apologizing.”
“soon as you see em they freeze up like in museums
Them statues, you like, “Is that the dude, that said he was gonna (pop you)”
Niggas get running before you finish ya sentence
And then they back to riffing, when they off at the safe distance
You like, you was just here, you disappear like magicians
In thin air, I’m like damn, nigga at least keep it consistent”

Drake ethered Common. Sorry.
Sales = Ethered in rap battle? Nah.
Drake sounded like he was gonna cry onstage when addressing his level of “I’m not a bitch!”ness. He’s a sensitive guy. Nothing wrong with that. Clearly ‘Sweet’ touched a nerve. Questioning his manhood and all that. To a point where maybe his insecurity got the best of him so he took the bait. Shit happens. Acting like he wants to take it to the street would be far from consistent with who he has been tho.
SMH.
Common’s legacy surpases many rappers.
He’s made classic albums by being real hip hop. He worked with legends (Rest In Peace Dilla)
He raps for the people, positivity, struggle, ghetto, dreams, faith. Drake raps about how heart broken he is over a girl. How he’s trying to adjust to fame. He only raps about himself. Most people who say they listen to hip hop have no clue what it is…
man off the head no blackberry nuff said
Drake cant even face some tattoo artist in LA face to face. Common would lyrically murder this boy ! Drake is a singer not a fighter.

@ Megaman
The irony in your point is that despite all those records sold Common is still one of the most respected rappers in Hip Hop hands down after so many years. Canada Dry will never get the respect Common has.
[…] Common a random word and he will manage to cover it off the top. And during his recent
