Common VS Drake: First Rap Battle Of 2012

Let’s get it on!
A battle has begun between prominent figures in rap music.
In this corner, we have Common, known for his slick rhymes and smooth hooks. Common actually laid down the gaunlet for this battle, throwing shade at his opponent with his song ├óΓé¼┼ôSweet├óΓé¼┬¥ back in November. In it, he rants about how MCs have gone “soft,” and sometime, admitted that his comments were directed at Drake and his crew.
In this corner, we have Wheelchair Jimmy Drake, one of the most promising MCs in recent years. He rose to fame quickly once he got with the right crew, so now he has a rep to protect. With that in mind, he laid down a track with French Montana and Rick Ross called Stay Schemin, with more than a few choice lines directed at his Young Money attacker.
Now, the ball is in Common’s territory and he is making good use of it. Turning the tables fast and hard, he took the song Drake did with Rick Ross and Co. and remixed it for Drakes (and our) listening pleasure. Check out the video (above) to hear Common’s strike back to Drake’s dissing rhymes!
Tsk, tsk. Can’t we all just rap and get along?! LOL!
