Spreadin the Real: Common confirms 'Sweet' directed to Drake

Common has been one of the most consistent solid hip hop artists for 10+ years (even during the Electric Circus era he was dope, i personally liked the Electric Circus album) ...his latest album The Dreamer/The Believer is dope and the track "Sweet" is getting much attention...this is due to the fact the Common's lyrics are directed to the OVOXO's Drake...I like Drake also but have to admit he is a little emo but his music and talent is undeniable (Take Care is also a great album though its more RnB than Hip Hop but its still ill) ...

check the video of Common on Sway's morning show talking about the track 'Sweet'...

p.s. - you can listen to the track on my latest mixtape (shameless plug) digital skill sector 1.5...here's the link

Spreadin the real: Drake and The Cool Kids are...

We are now in the middle of '10 and approaching the beginning of the summer album releases....most anticipated for the summer of '10: Drake - Thank me later, The Roots - How I

got over, Nicki Minaj's release and The Game - R.E.D. album (don't expect anytime soon since Interscope pushed the album back indefinitely)...well Drake's album Thank me later as already leaked 15 days before its official release and I must say that its well worth the wait (since '09 when "So Far Gone" mixtape dropped)...the album is definitely solid, its an album you can listen to without skipping any tracks...

All the tracks are original, fresh and entertaining...I noticed the hate on Drake (on the 'net and in the streets) and I don't see why because he can actually rap with thought provoking, insightful lyrics...then to add he can actually carry a note without using autotunes over creative beats...another piece of music to check for is The Cool Kids latest mixtape venture with Los Angeles Leakers named Tacklebox....

the tacklebox has all new tracks with that old school 80's feel while Mikey Rocks and Chuck Inglish spit their fashion riddled, sports reference raps...definitely download this mixtape (this 'tape gave me some satisfaction because i was saddened by the release of Young Jeezy - Trap or Die II. Trap or Die II seemed too redundant [beats sounded similar] though some tracks are good) ...so go download or buy Drake's album (on June 15th) and d'load the Cool Kids mixtape....

p.s. - Wiz Khalifa's OJ and Kush mixtape is worth a listen or two also

holla,
