Yes, yes happy Jazz Sunday to all. This is definitely a treat. Common was on twitter a little over a week ago tweeting about a trip to Haiti(Ayiti) saying simply:
He has been updating periodically on how amazing the trip was, well late yesterday he posted another tweet that gave us a glimpse into his trip to Haiti. Apparently he was there doing a video shoot for a song off his album “The Dreamer, The Believer” and I’m quite sure to do humanitarian work as well. Honestly the video is amazing! What’s even more amazing is the soundtrack to the video and I’m assuming it is the instrumental to the song(I sure hope it is!!) Check out the video and enjoy!
Bonus: I am going with common sense(no pun at all) and saying that the instrumental in the video is a sample of the song “sweet” well regardless…here is the original. Trust me, you all need this album in your life.
Common is everywhere these days(literally) and seems to be in full promo mode on all fronts, whether for his book One Day It’ll All Make Sense or for his upcoming album The Dreamer, The Believer. On this go round Common presented his musical side with the release of his new single Blue Sky. Check out the interview/listening below and it goes without saying but The Dreamer, The Believer is set be released November 22nd, sooooo ummmmmm yeah make sure you have that.
Time flies but it was just a little over a week ago that Creative Beach caught up with Common at the Baltimore Book Festival, watch the video or see it again for the first time:
Saturday’s can be chill when it comes ‘something new’ but this being a holiday weekend I guess it’s time for gifts because Nas released the full length version of Common’s song Ghetto Dreams which will be featured on Common’s upcoming album The Dreamer, The Believer set for a November release date. Can’t wait!! Until then download this freebie and add it to your cookout mix.
