Luckily, we caught up with the Chicago-based rapper at Western Union's Thanks A Thousand Campaign event to launch a $1,000 a day give-a-way until June 17th.

Never one to hold his tongue, Common dropped some inspirational and insightful words about the case:

“We can’t allow people in the country to feel like you just, by your own judgment, want to kill someone, because you feel threatened. There’s no threat being shown. “
