The video’s already been shot in Haiti, now Funkmaster Flex blasts off the second single from Common’s The Dreamer, The Believer due in December. Fans can expect the Phillipe Scaglietti-directed video to drop in the near future. There’s nothing “Sweet” about this, straight lyrical, aggressive raps.
New Music: Common – “Sweet” (prod. by No I.D.) (CDQ/No Tags)
UPDATE: CDQ/No Tags added.
After the jump, Common speaks with VIBE on the meaning behind “Sweet”….

Good to see Common still has it in him. For a second, I thought he was far removed from this type of vibe, considering he is like the “urban” poster boy for GAP and his moonlighting as a actor I felt like the Common of old was buried and left for dead. I guess he tapped deep within himself, because this joint is very reminiscent of the Resurrection/Bitch In You era Common Sense. Definitely will be on repeat for a hot second!

This isnt exactly the metaphoric monster Common who made “Pineapple Orange Juice” but none the less a refreshing to hear some fire…Polo is pedestrian support Jackin Ralph jackinralph.com

The song is cool but i think if i were to ever see Common in person and he was talking the way he is at the end of the song, i would probably laugh. I can’t even see him being upset
