Common – The Next Chapter (Still Love H.E.R.)
Posted on
When I first heard Common’s “I Used to Love H.E.R.“, I instantly fell in love. No pun intended. It was one of those smooth, lyrical songs that spoke to something deeper than on the surface. That was ’94. Fast forward some 20 years and Common has dropped the follow up to the hit […] -

With Kanye’s promise to release a new track every Friday until Christmas, he took every bit of the day to release this Friday’s track “Devil in a New Dress”. Classic Kanye here.
