Now that we're all heavy with anticipation for Common's new dance record (sort of), Universal Mind Control, let's get our bump on, shall we? "Punch Drunk Love" features The Neptunes on production with Com's ever faithful wingman Kanye West providing some sprinkles on top of some lackluster rhymes. To be fair, "I make you hot, baby/ I know your spot, baby" is not incredibly ingenious, nor is Kanye repeating "I already know I'm too fly" all throughout. And we shouldn't expect anymore since this is Common's foray into the land of fun on the dance floor. But once the meh-inducing rhyming stops, The Neptunes take over and lace this track with some vocoder love that our Auto-Tuned ears can actually appreciate. So much so that it's actually the anticipation of this part of the song that provides the ability to get through a second listening of it. The song's not horrible, just not exactly single material. It is, however, great for being played in the background when you're otherwise occupied.
