I pick Common because he killed Ice Cube, it even said some shit on Cnn in the little news ticker

"The Predator #1: This week before Common slaughtered him Ice Cube was riding high at #1"
Ja Rule dont want it with Common @ all, we'll see a Bitch In You Part 2. Finally someone is speaking up on 2pac Jr.

Here is Common's verse from "Soul Power" from his new cd which is on some next level shit, I'm still getting used to the sound.

You made a hit, and came up on a few dollaz/
I rather listen to silence than you "Holla."/
Why is your persona/
from the late great, that made "Dear Mama?"/
My realness is the armor//
that I wear up in this sport for truth, you a decoy/
Common Sense is like the future of the b-boy//

Common is raw and the battle between him and Ja would be over before it even began.

"...some say that God is Black/
And the Devil's White/
Well the Devil is wrong/
And God is what's right/
I fight/
With myself in the ring of doubt and fear/
The rain ain't gone/
But I can still see clear/
As a child given religion with no answers to why/
Just told believe in Jesus 'cause for me he did die/
Curiosity killed the catechism/
Understanding and wisdom/
Became the rhythm that I played to..."

- Common from "G.O.D. (Gaining One's Definition)"

who's said ja rule is tight? and if you don't like common then you don't like hip hop!!
no one said he was tight, I was sayin that I didn't think he was tight, despite the fact that i like a couple songs y'know

and your right, i don't really like the hip-hop side of things

OH NO! :eek:

Forget a full song, or even a full verse for that matter....he just killed Ja Rule with ONE LINE. That was cold! Common vs Ja Rule? What a fuckin joke! Common is a lyrical genious.

common fucked up cube wit that song, but cube made a mixtape and fucked him up, but it got squashed so it never really got played. I got it on a dj pooh mixtape in LA.
