I would rap over this beat, so I don't see the beef? Hip-Hop is universal, don't discriminate against any artists!

Hip-Hop is universal, don't discriminate against any artists!Doesn't matter what you think of the Jonas Brothers, they are pop. Common is doing a song with them to try to appeal to the mainstream audience. Not only that he is appearing on tv ads and coming up with his own clothing line. That might be okay for some rappers, but it goes against everything Common has stood for. This is the definition of a sellout. He's a hypocrite to have a song like I Used to Love H.E.R. and now be heading towards the pop tip.

Think this, Common has NO IDEA who these guys are (I only found out about their level of popularity like 2 months ago, and still haven't see them anywhere but uTube), then these guys come @ Common to do a song.. Common checks the beat, and he's with it, so he lays a verse about whatever the song is about...I don't see how that is selling out. If you can make a love song, (assuming that is what it's about), then you ain't got soul, and you shouldn't be rapping..Concerning the clothing line, could be just a money venture.. And I'm sure all the "real artists" who could have clothing deals, would take it, and some actually do..
