Lincoln benches Magic, goes hip-hop

Lincoln has signed Grammy-winning rapper Common, shown with a Navigator SUV in front of the Regal Theater in Chicago, as a celebrity spokesman to help boost the brand's appeal among buyers in their late 20s to mid-30s. Lincoln hopes closer ties to the hip-hop culture will make the Navigator and Lincoln "hipper and a little cooler." (NEWSCOM)
