whatever. I'd want to see you at his PLATINUM PARTY. The record label is supposed to work for the artist and vice versa. In this case Common - well deservedly - has gotten recognotion but without any real promotion from MCA beside some Source ads and some posters. What about the fucking advertizing blitz they give to other artists. and excuse me - I'd also like to see you at a Jazzyfatnastees "anything" party, ok? Common went gold on the strength of a fan base that has accumulated since "One Day.." had he been a new MCA arist like Jazzyfatnastees or even fuckin' Killah Priest - he'd be in the hole now
