I’m an African and I’ve learnt so much about the history of hip hop from this channel and I understand rap better now which has inspired me to start my small reaction. Thank you for inspiring a young brother.

The 'All is Well' reference is about the Stones (Black P Stones gang that he mentioned). In Chicago, the Stones and also the Vicelords (another gang) use the phrase "All is well" not only as a greeting but as a way to identify themselves distinct from other gangs.

Robert Glasper is a jazz pianist, who along with Karriem Riggins (drummer) have been doing all of Common's production for a few albums, including a group album they did together called August Greene. All of which has been amazing, they do almost entirely live, written instrumentation as opposed to sampling. Fantastic stuff.

Pay attention to what he does @ 7:33 right there he starts double-rhyming, that's elite emceeing right there, a skill not many people can pull off.

@professorXcross 2 жыл бұрын

I think having two different rhyme patterns within a scheme isn't the most difficult. A lot of fast rappers utilize this skill and end up rhyming over 3 different rhymes within a stanza. But what makes Common so CRISPY is his lack of FILLERS. He's actually saying something throughout each bar and that's what I can really appreciate about the legend.

Not just double-rhyming but he also came with multi-syllabic rhyming. That’s GOAT status spitting right there.

25:00 I love that you guys touched on Common's way of rapping about women - I've learnt a lot about hip hop and come to appreciate it so much more largely from this channel, but there seems to be a lot of misogyny in hip hop and it's good to hear someone bringing it up. (in saying that, other genres such as rock n' roll have also been very misogynistic as well).

Coming up with multiple clever lines off the top about specific subjects while holding a diverse flow is super impressive. However, the reaction wouldnt be a super indepth breakdown of intricate double entendres. 🤣 He pulls out a few gems every now and then.

However most rappers will and can only rap about money, liquor, nonsense, negativity, poverty, killing each other, misogyny and negativity! Rappers are limited as to the content of their lyrics!
