I thought havin' "The Light" play in the movie "Disappearing Acts" would guarantee Cornbread an Image award...I'm sayin, black song 'bout black love w/black folks in the video and havin that blackass song play in a black movie based on a book by a black woman.

I say call Rev. Jesse Jackson & Rev. Al Sharpton and protest.

Bullshit-seen it, smelled it, look at it, abused by it, sent money on it.
See, me and bullshit have a love/hate relationship,we fuck around with other from time to time. But, when Bullshit gets on my nerves, I tell it to get the fuck on. But, I love Bullshit so we cool for right now

I was there last night ... Jill didn't win ish ...I'm not too happy either. (Hey label guy if you're out here in LA we should get together, We're in Santa Monica on Nebraska and Stewart, right around the corner from MCA ...lets get drinks and do the creative mind thing.)

WILL THERE BE A RELEASE OF THE GRAMMY PERFORMANCE SHE DID WITH MOBY?

It's all about those that voted are usually older folks. They only voted for people that they recognize. Trust me. Being a former member, this, sadly, isn't new. The young folks have been fighting this for years.

When "LIving Single" was on tv, one of the actresses on that show, her name escapes me, was up for an award for best actress on a tv series. She lost it to Phylicia Rashad for "Cosby" No disrespect to Phylicia, but hasn't she won enough awards? "Living Single" was brilliant, and they never recognized it even ONCE. Damn shame. IMO they're no better than the mostly white award shows.

Those hoes had nuthin' on Phylicia

I can't think of any better explination for LL's win

But, c'mon, LL is probably the only rapper in the category that they knew. Oh, well, I guess the underground isn't quite "above ground" yet.

"You're here, I'm pleased" Jilly from Philly

u all have to recognize...LL's been at this for YEARS...as w/many award ceremonies the awards are usually favor'd toward the "sentimental" favorites or the "veterans"...it happens at the oscars & the grammys as well...remember cher w/"believe"???...that was like her first grammy since...{was it her first grammy period???}...it happens...maybe c-o-mm-on should consider doin situation comedy...or rhymin w/out his kufi on





u read what i said & u STILL want more??!!??

i knew ll was gonna get it; they consider him a veteran, but common has so many awards he'll collect down the road!!!! keep up the good work, common.

that sucks. I ain't hatin on LL because I do think his ability to remain a family man and diversify his career speaks volumes, but Common deserved that shit this year - he's been all over the news and The Light was one of the best love songs of our time.

Yo, thats some fucked up shit, because LL has ghostwriters doing his. Common put blood, sweat, and knowledge to his track. Who even bought his album? These motherfuckers dont know shit. Thats because they listen to that commercial rap and not real hip-hop like mos, talib, the roots, ect. Common doesn't need an award to signifies his well doings into life. Shit to me he's a prophetor. He talks about shits thats happening now; that's happening to us, that others are too blind to notice. Plus he talks from both perspectives. Man, how real could that be?!?!? He knows how to blazz the track and bless the mic. LL can never compare to that. LL is just lucky to dripp up the mic like thats his dick. Luckily i dont watch television.... fuck that, i just listen to my hip-hop and thats it. Through hip-hop, thats where the accomplishes, and messages comes from. Well while they praisin on LL cd, i'll be listenin to that latest released "Ghetto Heaven" by Common and Macy Gray.

LL is probably the reason Common started rhyming in the first place.

The brutal truth is that the bulk of white people in America never had any interest in educating black people, except as this could serve white purposes. It is not the black child's language that is in question, it is not his language that is despised: It is his experience. A child cannot be taught by anyone who despises him, and a child cannot afford to be fooled. A child cannot be taught by anyone whose demand, essentially, is that the child repudiate his experience, and all that gives him sustenance, and enter a limbo in which he will no longer be black, and in which he knows that he can never become white. Black people have lost too black children that way. (James Baldwin)
