Pitchfork reviewer feels that Chapelle Show excerpt on new Common album disrupts authentic blackness of "palpable Southside surroundings." Film at 11.

But seriously dude, it's a major label hip hop album whose first single has already recieved massive amounts of airplay on MTV. Do you really think you can get away with pretending this is a Robert Johnson '45 and not looking at it in the context of capital flows and imperial racial imaginaries (Which your comments adhere to quite nicely?) If so, can I have your job?
