Agreed! I'm not a fan of rap music and, perhaps it's my age, never understood it's appeal to folks outside inner cities. Everything I've read about Common indicates to me he's a good guy and a decent role model, this "outrage" is a sign of the times...folks who disagree with President Obama's politics are no longer satisfied with merely disagreeing with him, they feel compelled to demonize him....some cases, it's racial, other times merely the political reality of a mass media culture.
