Clocking in at approximately one hour, the joint record features guest appearances from Bilal on “So Many People,” Jennifer Hudson on “A GOD (There Is),” De La Soul’s Posdnuos on “When The Sun Shines Again” and PJ on “Everything’s So Grand.” Common said of the record, “Pete Rock is one of The Greatest Creators Hip Hop and Music has ever seen. It has been a dream of mine to work with him on an album.” He continued, “And once we got together and I I was around him and all his records and his MPC I felt the spirit of what I always loved in hip hop in soul music and why I wanted to be a part of the artform. His beats, his production, his scratches, took me to a place where I could just MC freely. It felt I like I was home.”
“To work with Common is truly unbelievable. I’m grateful for the connection we have on this project and excited for the world to hear our new album. The excitement is unbearable. Common and Pete Rock taking over the summer!” Rock added.
