Fortunate is another HipHop treat off Common and Pete Rock’s “The Auditorium Vol.1”! As the title of the song say, Common spits bars about how fortunate he is. Pete Rock cooked up a beat that takes me back to Common’s classic “Like Water for Chocolate” album. I’m loving how this song makes me sit back and think about how fortunate I am. Hope it does for you too. THIS IS HIPHOP!!
Pete Rock is one of The Greatest Creators Hip Hop and Music has ever seen. It has been a dream of mine to work with him on an album. And once we got together and I was around him and all his records and his MPC I felt the spirit of what I always loved in hip hop, in soul music, and why I wanted to be a part of the artform. His beats, his production, his scratches, took me to a place where I could just MC freely. It felt like I was home.”
