You forget how she got on in the first place? Do you forget how she put on the head wrap and the whole persona in order to "sell" the image? I dont agree with the term sellout in general, but going by YOUR definition, Erykah did alot more to sell her music than is apparant by Common's actions. And good for her, I support smart business. Also, according to YOUR definition of a sellout and following YOUR theory, she partnered up with Lil Wayne to SELL HER MUSIC. She also acted in movies, not unlike Common, to SELL HER IMAGE. She basically did everything Common did. But yet you call her opposite. Go figure.

(again, I support any artist who knows how to sell)
