Tomorrow, Common – the Emmy-, GRAMMY-, and Oscar-winning rapper, actor, activist, and best-selling author – will release his twelfth studio album, Let Love. Inspired by a phone call from his daughter that forced him to reconsider his approach to fatherhood, faith, and family, Let Love is “a captivating tale about using love as a weapon to overcome” (Exclaim). The result is a wide-ranging, therapeutic statement that delves into modern Blackness, police brutality, toxic masculinity, and so much more — a triumph of self-reflection and self-love.

Watch Common “bring the challenges of Black fatherhood to life” (Essence) in the touching video for “Show Me That You Love” featuring Jill Scott and Samora Pinderhughes: https://youtu.be/Z_Kae_LaQ1g 

To celebrate tomorrow’s album release, Common invites fans to join him for a special one-time-only live-streamed album presentation hosted by Common called Let Love Have The First Listen. Common will walk fans through the creation of the album and the various themes running throughout, providing an unprecedented look at his creative process and the self-examination that drove this project.

Join Common for Let Love Have The First Listen at 5pm PST / 8pm PST, as he takes fans through his creative process while presenting his new album. Watch here: https://found.ee/Common_LetLove1stListen

Featuring collaborations with BJ The Chicago Kid, Jill Scott, Daniel Caesar, Leon Bridges, A-Trak, Dwele, and Leikeli47 — as well as an unearthed, never-before heard beat from the late, legendary J Dilla on “HER Love” — Let Love creates a sonic world that, in Common’s words, is “Marvin Gaye meets DJ Premier meets Radiohead.” 

Common recently appeared as the lead guest on Fallon, discussing Let Love and performing “Hercules” alongside Swizz Beatz. Watch the performance here: https://found.ee/Common_Fallon
