Went to check out De La Soul, John Legend, and Comm at the HOB Monday night. Great show is all I can say. De La did alot of old school stuff Buddy, Me Myself and I, Potholes in My Lawn, Ooooh- but they still can work a crowd, I loved it when they brought out Dres from the Black Sheep and he performed Flava of the Month and he got the crowd amped up when he did The Choice is Yours (engine engine number 9 on the new your transit line, if that train jumps of the track pick it up pick it up!!), then Rahzel, the beat box man performed for awhile, next Common came and did his thing, I had heard about Common's live show being like that - and he lived up to the billing. He did alot of cuts from the new album including my three favorites - Go, Testify, and Faithful and then he went back and did some older stuff of course including one of the greatest hip-hop joints ever I used to love H.E.R. and then mixed it up with his verse from his and Erykah's joint "love of my life", before flippin into a freestyle over Electric Relaxation. Comm might have just propelled himself into a tie with Game for being my favorite MC of the moment. But Comm is an MC in every sense of the word. Ummmm I left during John Legend's part of the show - No disrespect but I'd seen him perform before with Alicia Keys and after he performed "she don't have to know" my fav it was time for me to go.
