Rapper Common appeared on BET‘s 106 & Park while author and poet Maya Angelou decided to phone in to discuss her recent article in which she expressed her feelings regarding the use of the ‘N word’ on his single ‘The Dreamer’

Dr. Angelou appears on Common’s latest album The Dreamer/The Believer, reciting an original poem she wrote for the project.

She said:

“I don’t think the word disappointment quite makes it, I was surprised. I know that Common is brilliant. He may in fact be close enough to be called a genius—I’m not sure—I know that we are all in process, and young artists are in process.”
