Music is About Love Interlude (Live at the North Sea Jazz Festival, 2005) lyrics

by

Yasiin Bey


You know, for those who don't know about Common
You know, I’m an MC that talked about, and talks about love a lot, you know
Like I said, in hip-hop, they expect us to only talk about guns and women
And just like b*tches and all this, you know, and how many diamonds we got
But that ain't all we about, so you know
When Common came on the scene, I was talking about hip-hop
Talking about culture, talking about music, and I talked about 40 ounces, but, you know
And that too, but it was more to it than just that, you know
It's like music is about love, it’s about God, it's about spirituality
And you know, a lot of people had a lot of things to say about me
And they was talking about, "Ah, he's soft, man" and you know
"He ain't coming with the real hip-hop", you know
And, "He going crazy, he doing all these love songs. What's on his mind?
What's happening with the boy? What's the matter with the boy?
It's a problem with him. He used to be raw hip-hop when he first started
Now he’s changing on some other stuff. What’s going on with dude?
What's happening with him? Huh? What’s the matter with Common now?
Let me know, what's the matter with Common?"
That's what they be saying, they hear the boy going crazy...
