Over the past few years Common has been steadily diluting his reputation as one of the best MCs in hip-hop by also being one of the crappier recording-artist-turned-actors in recent memory. Unfortunately, it looks like Common is continuing down this career path, and might even be interested in playing B.A. Baracus, the role popularized by Mr. T, in the new A-Team movie.

When asked about the role, Common replied, "Yeah that would be something cool, but, I mean, let's see, I can't speak on it yet until we know what's going on but that would be an incredible character to play."

The film's director, Joe Carnahan, also directed the rapper in Smokin' Aces, so it looks like Common has a very real chance to indulge in this particularly lame career move.
