It was a LOCALS ONLY night in Chicago as a select crowd were treated to an early Christmas gift from Common in his home town.
.
The secret show at the Museum of Contemporary Arts Warehouse
on the West Side was, like the rapper ... NOT @ ALL "COMMON".
The crowd of friends and fans had won free tickets
by showing they had some Chicago history and hip-hop knowledge
in an online quiz..
.."The commercials had hyped me up!",
1st they would come on , they'd show COMMON running
through the hallways, then you'd hear backgrounds
from the jam
"UNIVERSAL MIND CONTROL"..I don't care what you say..
..that joint iz nasty, I mean how do you mix spaceship -ish
with, old schooL, BEAT BOXING, SOUL FUNK..2 turn tables
and a mic?..Any way @ the end of the commercial
it said:"FREE CONCERT 4 COMMON FANS..log
On 2 chicago.nbc..and find it if you can..
THATS HOT AZZ MARKETING!!"
Talk about a sister, that stopped chewingg fruity pebbles in the middle of a newely perfectly poured bowl, 2 log on..and when they said find it if you can..they were not joking..It was almost impossible, almost close but no cigar...
Hundreds rocked the house as Common owned the stage along with a band and deejay sprinkling classics with several songs from his newly-released eighth album, "Universal Mind Control," including "Punk Drunk Love and "Gladiator."
"OH AND BY THE WAY..KANYE SHOWED UP!!"
It'z a beautiful thang 2 see a brother come from hiz 1st joint..can I borrow a dollar
2 actually making music that still has substance, a movies with the biggest actors in HOLLYWOOD light years later. There are not many people who give back 2 the same fans that place them in SUPA-STAR status..
"LOVE THIS BROTHA 4 it 2, FREE CONCERTS and 99 cent albums...
NOW THATS WHAT I CALL A SUPA'STAR..in the REALTALK language!"
COMMON IZ WHAT REAL HIP-HOP IZ ALL ABOUT!NO MATTR WHAT.. AS OF 2DAY.. COMMON IS STILL JUST WHO HE WAS

-PICTURES LIE-"Lemme Put You On Game"
Jesse Jackson and the late Detroit Mayor, Coleman Young are all smiles in this photo, taken at the Book-Cadillac Hotel the night Young was first elected Detroit’s mayor in 1973. But inside, the mayor-elect was seething. He had wanted Jackson, then a youthful 32, to come to Detroit to lead a voter-registration drive. But the younger man demanded $50,000, to which an indignant Coleman spat, “I didn’t have $50,000 for Jesse Jackson.” Later, when Jackson ran for the Democratic presidential nomination in 1988, Young got even by endorsing a rival, and at one point proclaimed, “Jesse never ran nothing but his mouth.” In a classic understatement, Mayor Young noted in his autobiography that, “It was well known that Jesse and I were not bosom buddies.”
