Common did an excellent job Rapping only one verse on "My Wa Home". I wish "My Way Home" was longer that a minute and 45 seconds, and that Kanye &/or Common could've recorded more rap verses, cause it would've sounded more like an "original" song using a sample" than a remix of another track with added lyrics.

This is a really nice sample. I Like both tracks, ""Home Is Where The Hatred IS" because of it's Rhythm guitar & melody, and "My Way Home" cause of Kanye doing a good job (either slowing down or Re-recording) the keyboard track while directly lifting the drums-&-guitar from "Home is Where The Hatred Is". Sounds like Gil Scott-Heron re-recorded his vocals on "My Way Home" and remained uncredited, because on Kanye's track, his voice sounds much deeper than on "Home is Where The Hatred Is".
