Tim Westwood's TBT game has been unmatched lately. Dating back to November, the U.K. DJ has let loose a series of gems from his storied archive, including unreleased freestyles from Jay Z, Mos Def, and DMX. Today, he keeps the heat coming with an unheard '03 freestyle from Common.
Common goes off-top over The Diplomats' "Dipset Anthem," which dropped in the same year. Hearing the Chi-Town emcee take on the Harlem classic, shouting out many of his peers in the process, shows that the rap game was in a special place all those years ago.
Come back next Thursday to see what else Westwood pulls from the vaults.
Quotable Lyrics
When I come on a Saturday
Marchin' in like the Saints on a Latter Day
Yo, don't want no war
Just want the hardcore hip-hop
Take a pit stop and let it go on
Comm'll keep flow-on'
