UPDATE: CDQ

After a couple of previews and leaked pictures, we finally get the full version of Common’s “Blue Sky”.  The Dreamer, The Believer drops this fall.

Check out this newly released song and video from Common produced by dsteele, “Let’s Move.” Thoughts are this won’t end up on The Dreamer, The Believer.

From the vaults of the underground comes a never before heard tale from Chicago’s Greatest Street Poet, Common. Common’s graphic story comes to life with the assist from visual artist and producer dsteele.

Led by No I.D., Cocaine 80s teams up with Common again for “Six”.  Hell yes.

Common samples one of my favorite songs in his newest single “Blue Sky.” This is the second single to come off his album The Dreamer, The Believer . Common has been working along side producer No I.D. on this album due out November 22. Radio Rip for now. Here is what Common had to say about his album in a recent interview with The Book Box:

“It’s going to be positive hip-hop. Hip-hop that can really generate good spirit, the spirit of the music and just good energy. I’m excited about the album ['The Dreamer, The Believer']. I feel blessed that I got to work with No I.D. I’m enthused to do hip-hop, which is something that I have to do when I feel it.” – Common

Reebok Classics and Rock the Bells team up again for this original series. Common speaks on his classic album “Be” and how living with J. Dilla influenced his writing process. Lovin that beard.

Official visuals to the Common banger that is off of his next album The Dreamer, The Believer.
