I am very disappointed with the newest release from Common, “Universal Mind Control.” For a man that is known for having made what some consider to be the best hip-hop song of all time (I used to love H.E.R.), this is mediocre beyond all belief. Apparently, now hip-hop is Common’s “bitch.” Common used to love… Continue reading Universal Mind Control?
