Universal Mind Control


I don't know how I didn't post this song earlier, but it has been dominating my Ipod for the entirety of this SF trip. Common once again teams up with Pharrell, but thankfully the original skateboard P doesn't get his own verse and thank the Lord his verse in 'Announcement' was an abomination. But this song bangs harder than most Common tracks and clearly shows that he is sick of the damning 'conscious rapper' tag. Clearly a dance track, it reminds me a lot of Afrika Bambaataa's 'Looking for the Perfect Beat'. A classic from the almighty Zulu Nation.


Oh and here's a snippet of the video for the song, directed by Hype Williams. This video looks like it's going to be nuts.
