RAPPER COMMON
PLANS TO DROP THE DREAMER/THE BELIEVER FOLLOW-UP IN JANUARY 2013
Now that the crew’s long-awaited Cruel Summer album has
arrived, Common is ready to walk the solo road again, announcing plans to
release his 10th studio album at the top of next year.
Speaking with MTV News recently, while promoting
the G.O.O.D. Music release, Com revealed the plan as well as hoping to bring
some of his clique members in for the ride. “I am writing a new album. It will
be coming out in January, and I’m looking forward to that,” the Chicago MC
unveiled. “My stuff will come at the top of the year maybe some songs out there
on the street level, I’m going to work with No I.D. and looking to hopefully
work with Kanye [West] and that’s some of the major people I’ll be working
with, and whatever other great talents that I feel are going that direction
that I want the album to be.”
Also speaking on his G.O.O.D. team’s first collective
project, Cruel Summer, Common discussed being inspired by his fellow
teammates and being around such diversity. “You get inspired. It’s competition
you’re around artists that have such diverse qualities. Because when you have
Pusha T, 2 Chainz, and Kid Cudi, you have John Legend, you got Common, you have
Big Sean, you got Kanye West, all these different people rapping about
different things.”
The Chi-Town vet’s last studio album The Dreamer/The
Believer released in December 2011, debuting No. 18 on the Billboard 200
with 69,000 units sold its first week.
