first !!

yeah I know its chilldisch but I just had to do it :p

Anyways I really like the song and the clip is ok

I like Common, and at least people won’t only think about Dr. MLK in the month of February…oops guess the joint dropped right in time! Mmmph, February is right roun da kona!! Gone Common - BET ’bout to play this all month.

i love this song

I was waiting for this video. I’ll watch it later.

This is my anthem. I love this song.

I love this…

Common, again, is sexy as hell…

Nice video…I like the graphics, good work.

Common is da man. Will.I.Am seems to be doing his thing too lately. Good going bruthas.

i heard this song a while back on here i love it i got to wait to watch it im at work lol!

Yay…love me some Common! Will.i.am is really doing his thing…I ain’t mad at him!

this video was fine as hell. Good job guys.!
Common n Will.I.Am are both very sexy . lol

Love the message, love the song! Thanks for posting this CL.

Nice video, Good, Positive message.

i love this joint! but i wish people would actually support him. nas is right when he say hip hop is dead…

common is the MOST UNDERRATED THERE IS..which is so fuckin sad..i mean here is a prime example.gossip posts on CL get 200+ comments but this one hasnt even made it to 20.smh.

anyway,this is my first time hearing this*i know im late*but i like this.i hope this gets noticed because his song TESTIFY didnt do as well as i wanted it to

You can tell this was something relatively positive — not too many replies.

This is a good song. I’m surprised they got sample clearance for it. The King family is tight w/ the “Dream” speech (as they should be).

“Freedom Writers” looks like the 2007 remix of “Dangerous Minds”. Been there, done that.

Now thats music I must say that Im sad this post has’nt blown up but hey positive work does’nt get that much attention especially when BROTHAS do it keep it up COMMON AND WILL

You can tell this was something relatively positive — not too many replies.

i just watched the video trailer on freedomwriters.com i really want to see this movie

I know right Damien lol

I try to post some good stuff up on here but, that don’t catch too many folks attention

Oh the movie Freedom Writers looks pretty good too, for those that don’t know its based on a true story. I’m excited about the film especially after seeing the special on MTV featuring the actors

Is this “Freedom Writers” or “Dangerous Minds” part 8, lol. These movies are a trip for real and so transparent. Super-caucasian comes to save the negroes and spanish-speakin’ negroes from themselves again. Beautiful tearjerker.

the song is cute….but damn how many times they gone make this damn movie? They should hav named it Dangerous Minds 2..or maybe Stand and Deliver,Again

Well im glad that we at least got a FEW real rappers out right now, that gives me hope that Hip Hop will not stay dead. We just need more rappers to make songs like this. I too, love the message of the song. I will also be going to see the movie on Friday, it looks good, it does look like another dangerous minds though, but nonetheless i will support it.

Positive song, postitive message…I like!

Beautiful video..thank you.

It’s funky.

GOOD FOR THEM!

GOOD SONG AND CONCEPT.

KEEP HOPE ALIVE FOR HIP HOP:)

Love you Lonnie. Call me. ;0)

lol @ Damien. You’re so right.

It takes so little energy to be positive, if it comes naturally. But I guess being negative comes more naturally for some.

I am sooooooo in love with all things Common. He is the best lyricist living (PERIOD) all y’all grimy cats who like bling and BS… I’m not on it. I like my hardcore w/ a message and some pimp. I like my intellecual stimulated and some funk. Comm has it all. Not to mention the fact that he is fine as all everything and could get it in a heartbeat RAWDOG!!!!! I love U Lonnie Rashid Lynn, Jr.

i love the song

I know, it’s so so sad, if we can gossip about popular things on CL then we can gossip about positive things like this….But ne way, I like the video and song, it gave me mad chills yo….Common is so underrated…eh…o’well…sad, I know…

Like yall said about how this movie is similiar to Dangerous Minds and all..I think what the people are tryna to do here is make movies like this and pass it on generation to generation except in a different type of story…The movie looks cool..BTW, the video is just too damn hot and the song too…COMMON knows what real hip hop is…and Definately this is REAL HIP HOP..I love it…What I’m tryna say is…at least he aint rappin about sex, money, and rims.

i love you music i always wanted to meet you.i try to sing like you but i can’t so i sing with you .i love your voice.
