Although it's only been a matter of weeks it looks like one of the most destructive beefs in Hip-Hop will soon be coming to an end. Common spoke on his beef with Drake a.k.a Canada Dry during an interview with Rolling Stone and it sounds like he's ready to let his feud with Drake go. See more...

The Drake/Common Beef Just Got A Whole Lot Funnier Thanks To This Video

I know we already have the "You Canada Dry" t-shirt story up, but I just could not pass on posting this extra bit of Common/Drake hilarity. Aside from Common and Drake riding on that horse together I think the funniest part of this video might just be the "Dream. Believe. Take Care." line at the end. See more...

Drake Needs One Of These “You Canada Dry” T-Shirts In His Life

It was really only a matter of time before someone hit us with the "You Canada Dry" t-shirt. While the t-shirt is pretty hilarious Common's "You Canada Dry" line will likely only be funny for about two and a half more days then it's wrap.

Has Common dropped “soft” Hip-Hop? The exact type of shit he’s criticizing Drake for? DUH! Has Common (and not to mention his comrades like Mos Def, Kanye, 3 Stacks and others) ever sung on a track about some emotional shit? Obviously! See more...

Common Takes Aim At Drake (a.k.a. Canada Dry) On “Stay Schemin Remix” (Listen & Download)

Just when you thought the Common/Drake beef was over and it was safe to leave your homes we've been hit with yet another diss record. This time Common added his own verse to the Rick Ross track "Stay Schemin." I think the funniest part about the "Stay Schemin Remix" is the fact that not only did Common rap on a song that Drake was featured on but he also left Drake's verse on his remix of the song.

Common Drops The Original Version Of “Ghetto Dreams” And It’s Pretty Dope (Listen & Download)

Posted by Danielle Harling on 12/21/11 | Filed under Downloads, Common

To say that Common can hold his own would be a tremendous understatement so of course the original version of "Ghetto Dreams" which features three verses from Common instead of a verse from Nas is hella dope. I'm glad that Common went with the version featuring Nas for the album, but I'm not mad at this version at all and it still features Nas on the hook. Listen and download...

Today Common released his ninth studio album album "The Dreamer / The Believer", and to celebrate RefinedHype's taking a look back at the legendary Chicago emcee's best work, picking one track off each project.
