Common Talks New Album

On the album . . .

the new album is called Invincible Summer. It will be out in the later part of June. The music sounds new. It’s really developing. I’m really happy about it. It feels good. It’s not really heavy. The Neptunes are producing a lot of it. Also a producer named Mr. DJ [is on the project]. He did a lot of work with OutKast. He did “Bombs Over Baghdad” and “Ms. Jackson.” These cats are really giving me some new, fresh sounds. I’m taking it somewhere vocally that I haven’t been before.

On possibly making more club friendly tracks . . .

You always need music that’s uplifting and conscious, but you also sometimes wanna relax and party. At a party, you might not wanna hear those things at that time.

On Working with Kanye for the new album . . .

Kanye and I will be working on it with some other new artists. But I think this will give it something fresh and it’ll give it more spice when Kanye and I get back together. Who knows? He may do something for this album, too, because I’m not finished.

Sample Of The Day! Special Edition (Part 2 of 2)

Ok. Part 2 special edition. The sample I left out of yesterday was Long Red by Mountain. Because this song deserves it's own SOTD. People really like this song. I realize each song could spawn a whoollleee web of new samples, but those will just have to be future SOTDS because 50,000 Imeem players will probably take 10 minutes to load. So for now just enjoy the top 10 Biters of Mountain's song. CLICK HERE FOR A FULL LIST:


Writer: Mountain - Long Red




Biter #1: Common - The People


Biter #2: Kanye West - Barry Bonds
