Here it is, the extended footage of Common's SUPER-CONTROVERSIAL poetry reading at the White House on May 11. As you will see for yourself, it's obviously anything but controversial. But hey, all those 24-hour "news" networks need something to talk about, right? Anyway, Common was actually reciting the lyrics from his song, "The Believer," which he will hopefully release as a proper single soon. Otherwise we'll just have to watch this video and imagine what Kanye West's beat sounds like. Or you can peep this live footage of "The Believer," though it is difficult to make out anything other than Com's verses.
