AVAILABILITY.
Grammy Award winning Lonnie Rashid Lynn (born March 13, 1972), known by his
stage name Common (formerly known as Common Sense), is an American rapper
and actor. Unlike many of his hip-hop contemporaries, Common doesn't make disposable art nor does he run from the title "conscious." He's concerned with making music that'll speak to the listeners' mind, body and soul, good music that'll stand the test of time. It is destined to have the name
Common said in the same breath as artists like Marvin Gaye, Bob Marley and Donny Hathaway and that, friends, is exactly as it should be.

In 2003, he won the Grammy Award for Best R&B Song for his feature on
