Don Plomaso keeps making his own path with "Common Sense," a song that feels deliberate, aware of itself, and refreshingly down-to-earth. Plomaso is from Curaçao but now lives in Amsterdam. His Caribbean roots bring a sound to the heart of the European urban scene that is confident but not loud and assertive but not too much.
"Common Sense" is based on a steady reggaeton and Afro-pop groove, and it works best when it is held back. The production is simple and clean, letting the rhythm, cadence, and delivery do the work. This artist knows exactly who he is just a steady beat and a calm but commanding presence. Plomaso's time as a member of Immorales is clear in this work; it shows that he has grown, sharpened his vision, and knows when less is more.
The song's lyrics and tone are more about attitude and message than about being too much. It feels relatable and authoritative at the same time because it is confident, calm, and quietly persuasive. The best parts are when the flow changes slightly and Plomaso rides the beat with ease, never forcing the moment. "Common Sense" is setting a tone. Don Plomaso shows that he's ready to make a lasting mark on the Afro-urban landscape, one thoughtful release at a time.
