As a hiphop head growing up in Ghana, west Africa I always thought Common was from New York..

[@yungdiabeates]

[@DemLyricsDoe]

He does got that raw hip-hop in him like Rakim, The Wu and all those guys. His music is like a mixture of NY and Chi-Town

[@likenem]

Are you familiar with Black Star because on respiration he's says I'm Chi town's Nas.

[@frikshun_]

He talks about Chicago all over his first album "Can I borrow a dollar".

[@whatup53]

Common is a good name, because he is common for being uncommon in a sense of being a celebrity for a skill
