Common s forthcoming album, scheduled for release at the end of March 2007, according to comments made by Common and Kanye West, though the official date has yet to be named. It will include production from the likes of West, possibly Dr. Dre, and may include posthumous production work by J Dilla.
D Angelo is also said to be making a cameo.
you can exist forever. Music can be forever if you make it from the heart, if you make it from the soul and it s good.
And I look at music like Bob Marley s or Marvin Gaye s or Stevie Wonder s or A Tribe Called Quest s, that s forever music. And I m continuing on the quest to make forever music.
has big plans for the album, I want to work with Kanye again, Common said.
And I would love to work with Dr. Dre because it ll be something fresh for me because I feel like he s someone who is a classic producer. feel that Dr.
Dre is one of those individuals.
now with the death of J Dilla and other things, you start thinking about forever lasting for real through music, he continued. Jay Dee will last about Common through his music.
And it s also saying: I been doing this for a nice period of time, so I m trying to find the place where I can keep existing in the game and make music I love.
and Kanye are still a ways off from Finding Forever s completion, but there s talk that the first single might be a record called The Glory, which Com described as a hard, raw joint.
The Glory is a street joint, he said.
It s one of those soulful songs I feel could touch the streets and beyond. That s the song Kanye wants for the first single, so we ll see. Cause we re cooking up a lot more songs.
...
I don t ever want to repeat myself, but we have some of that raw essence of what hip-hop is, what Be has been, what Common has been that s bringing that soul and beats and rhymes and the spirit. We have that, as well as some progression on the music.
