Remember what Comm’s homeboy said the first time he heard “Sweet?” Well, seeing is believing but hearing will get you killed when Lonnie Lynn brings out that piece of Southside of Chicago that we knew he still had tucked away in his inner psyche, despite being spotted at charity galas and the sidelines of tennis tournaments than the crime-ridden corners of his upbringing.
Over a thunderous mashup of snare drums and feverish guitar licks provided by The Dreamer, The Believer’s sole maestro, No I.D., Common lifts skirts, chastises singing happy-go-lucky rappers (hmmm…) and straight up posers in an uncharacteristic but definitely welcomed tirade. Can’t stand next to Oprah performing this one. Shit, they might arrest him next time he steps foot on the White House lawn.
December is going to be hot!
Common – “Sweet” (Prod. By No I.D.)

Holy shit…..This album is gonna be a problem, Com has dropped nothing but atomic bombs this year.
I like it better than Blue Sky, but after these 2 tracks I’m not completely sold on this album yet
Damn…who pissed off Lonnie? Dude’s been spittin that heat lately
Might as well have called this “The Bitch In All Ya’ll.”
@Dunn- Have you not heard Ghetto Dreams with Nas?
@ Greed Agreed
That pic goes PERFECTLY with the song
I’m dying at that pic.
“Might as well have called this “The Bitch In All Ya’ll.”
*DEAD* (real niggas only) best of the new No I.D. Com beats so far
Damn. I wonder who he’s spittin at
Common shredded this joint
I’m telling you … No I.D. brings it out this nigga. Kanye got him rhyming for Oprah and Obama, but No I.D. got him walking through the Southside at night with no bodyguards, still getting respect.
played this for my boy today and he ran a few laps around the room screamin “this nigga raw!!”
@Greed I actually completely forgot about Ghetto Dreams, I did really like that one.
I don’t know why I’m so reluctant to like this, but Common’s one of my favorite MCs ever though so I’m still optimistic
To say this goes hard is a tragic understatement! No hip-hop slang can define how dope this joint is! So I’ll say this joint is “Terse” thanna muhfucka!
I don’t think there’s a Hip-hop term that can describe the dopeness of this joint; So I’ll say this joint is “Terse” than a muhf*cka!

I think when that talk was going around that Drake might have been smashing Ms. Williams, Lonnie got in the booth to vent…
