Common, or earlier known as Common Sense, is an MC and producer from Chicago. he usually focuses on lyricism, and focuses on a large spectrum of different topics. He usually is in songs produced or collabed with Kanye West, but has been in other songs collabed with other hip hip mc's. He does alot of stuff with the clothing company GAP, and also does not dress like usual rappers. He dresses in my opinion very classy, wearing sweaters and polo tshirts. He has a foundation that raises money for the cure for HIV/AIDS and also very pollitically involved. he is a mostly legend underground, but people who dont like real hip hop probably wont like him. he has had few songs go mainstream. His albums in order are: Can i Borrow A Dollar in 92, Resurrection in 94, Thisisme then- The Best of Common in 96, One Day it'll All Make Sense in 97, Like Water for Chocolate in 2000, Electric Circus in 02, Be in 05, and Finding Forever in 07. He will forever be a legend in hip hop forever.
Common is my favorite MC and one of the most gifted lyrically ever. I also like his style of clothing.

Very common (pun intended) misconception of the words: "come on"
Commonly used by uneducated teens and young adults in today's world. Especially in social media.
Most often confused with the abbreviation "c'mon"

Person 1: I can't make it to the party tonight!
Person 2: COMMON man, are you serious?!
Person 1: What? You just said common in the wrong context, I think you should be studying for English class instead of partying all night.

A commoner is not always a 'chav' or 'scally' some just want to get on in life, some are happy with how they are, some want to get on in life, and encourage their kids to learn a trade.

The act of commonizing.
The act of using common components across applications.
Using the same engineering crap for multiple jobs.

Too much money is being spent here, I'm about use some commonization up in here!
All this shizzle has too much dizzle, we need commonization to bring it all togetha!

A pretty awesome last name, with the likes of Nottingham winger Kris Commons flaunting it. Families in North Lincolnshire choose to respond to Commons rather than their first name.

Commoners make up the large majority of the population in the UK. They are associated with being average. They are brought up among every other social group. Educated in council schools, majority of them live in council estates. Females tend to be well behaved and cheery most of the times. They will make freinds with anyone in other social groups but that does not mean they will "hang around" with them. ie, a commoner will be friends with a goth or a metalhead and talk to them for a change, but townies have a reputation and will not want to be seen with them. Female commoners will hang around with chavs and neds because they think they're so "awesome" or "funny" even though chavs and neds are abusive, racist and violent towards others. Commoners listen to mainstream dance, pop and RnB as well as modern day hip hip, eminem, dr dre, britney spears, boy bands, dj cammy etc. Females like to wear whatever is in fashion and have a distinctive uniform (jane norman, lacoste etc) and often look like clones. They are concerned with their general appearance but have a poor diet of mc donalds and take away food. they wear fake tan and bleach blonde their hair in order to seem "attractive" towards other neds and chavs. You will see them everywhere, in malls, streets etc. Females are also described as the bitch, they talk about others behind their backs and are self centered and vain. Most commoners have a general IQ of about 120, where as NEDs and CHAVs stand at less than 30 if they're lucky, commoners can be nice people. Most stereotypes will see them as NEDs and Chavs which enjoy drinking every friday and saturday night. Commoners spend Monday to Friday at school or on MSN messenger talking to their freinds, they have profile webpages such as profileheaven, and will go out on a friday and saturday night to get drunk with other fellow chavs and neds. They dont really have any interests and if you ask one "what are you into?" 95% will reply with "boyz boyz drinkin, clubbin and boyz". Sundays they will spend recovering from a hang over. Most importantly, Commoners have no knowledge of the world beyond them, they are oblivious to the news, politics and other global matters. All that matters to them is their so called lives and they feel happy and secure with them.
Anyone who is on MSN for the majority of the day and has X X X and other "pretty" symbols in their display name is a Commoner, they like to take pictures of themselves with webcams, and advertise their boyfreinds on websites and msn such as "XX 4 YY 4eva n eva", ironically they break up after 3 months and restart the process. Anyone who hangs around street corners with lambrini on a friday and saturday night is a commoner. bleach blonding hair, fake tan, latest fashion senses and annoying repetitive dance and hip hop music listeners. They dont understand anyone elses feelings, they cannnot comprehend suffering. Sadly they are everywhere.
