Common Addresses His Song 'Sweet' & Drake Taking Offense To It On 106 & Park "If You Wanna Get In The Ring, We Just Gotta Get In The Ring" *UPDATE* Common Confirms Song Was Drake Diss [Video]
Video After The Jump
Drake has taken offense to a song that appears on Common's new album The Dreamer/The Believer. On the track "Sweet" Common addresses rappers who sing too much on their records.
"Some hoes a** n*****, Singing all around me man. La la la, you aint muthaf*cking Frank Sinatra, Uh, lil b*tch, yeah, this the raw right here. Yeah this the raw right here n*gga. Sweet muthafuckas, sweet a** b*tch muthaf*cka."
Drake heard the track and wasn't too happy about it. He told the crowd at Power 106FM’s Cali Christmas that just because he sings doesn't make him soft.
“I will never stop doing this for ya’ll. I don’t give a f*ck if you have something to say to me. Say it to my muthaf*ckin’ face. Just cause I sing don’t make me no b*tch.”
During Common's appearance on 106 & Park yesterday (December 19) he spoke about the song and said if the shoe fits, wear it.
"I'll say this, it's a lot of artists out there that sing. And I don't think there's anything the matter with singing, but I just feel like I wanted to stand up for hip hop to a certain extent and hear cats rhyming and hear some hip hop elements," Common told Rocsi and Terrence J. "So what I really was addressing was all those cats that are out there singing and if certain people feel offended by it then they fit in that category. But I always want them to know that it's just hip hop. And in hip hop you challenge people. What I said in Sweet, [Drake] must have felt like he was one of the people being addressed. So he decided to say what he had to say. I say we can keep it on a hip hop level. I think he's a talented artist. But I'm saying if you wanna get in the ring, we just gotta get in the ring. And I'm talking about on the mic."
**UPDATE**
In a new interview with Shade 45's Sway in the Morning Common finally admits he was calling Drake out on the song "Sweet."

Smh@ n*ggas in 2012 STILL confusing SKILL with RECORD SALES. I'd rather sell 50k and be a real n*gga, than be Drake and go platinum.

Common is mad because it took Drake 2 years to do what he has never done. Drake probably sold more records then common ever did in his first week from his first cd. Common, stick to being a poet.

Yo I just want to write one last thing... Common is the truth? Dawg... the truth is... He sucks. =( Projected to sell less than 50,000 records his first week. Some of us are going to be surprised if he even sales that many. hmmm I think it should be buy one get 3 free. Than he might sale 50,000 copies. Yo everyone seen the food pyramid right? haha thats why he put a triangle on his album cover. He's on the bottom of that s***. Scrapping for spam meat. Drake is a better artist and he has talent. You can't compare these guys. common Studders through his rap music like he needs to go through speech therapy. Hey man Heaven is crazy, he doesn't know what hip hop is. Yea but guess what Heaven thinks common f****** sucks! and IDGAF if you get emotional like a drake song about it and get butt hurt. But, I bet you'll hear a drake song on the radio today and not a common song. Just in case you missed it... Your boy is the truth? but the truth is... He sucks. =(
