Common Speaks On Album Leaks

Chicago MC Common recently downplayed the proliferation of bootleg reproductions of his much-anticipated upcoming album Be, stating that he wasn't too bothered by the album leaks.

"People ain't got all the songs, so I ain't trippin'. They don't even have the whole album yet," Common said in a statement.

The rapper is currently working on new material including a remix of his single "Corners" featuring Mos Def and Scarface.

Common has also been in the studio contributing to fellow Chicago rapper/producer Kanye West's upcoming sophomore release Late Registration.

West, who produced much of Be, has projected Common's album as a classic.

Be is scheduled to drop on May 24.

In related news, Common is scheduled to perform on Friday (April 22) at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia and at Columbia University in New York City on April 30.

LMAo I would have liked to see him say...

Yeah it gives me a great feeling ppl are dying to get my shit ...makes me feel so loved...OH AND IF YOU A FAN OF HIP HOP YOU MAKE SURE YOU BUY THAT SHIT !!

 

[CalcuoCuchicheo]

Well, at least he didn't all-out bitch like some rappers.

Really, I respect that some artists really pour their soul into their work but a lot of them don't & then still bitch about bootlegging even though their record is full of all the dirt they did.

 

[2pac4prez2004]

am just glad theres more to 'Be' i thought it was amazing but short

 

[CalcuoCuchicheo]

^
He might've been lying....then again, he mightn't have been...ooooh, the suspense is killing me...

I'm hoping some of the album that apparently I don't have yet has Common just ripping the mic. How ill would "Be" have been if it was just Common going for 50 or 100 bars on just that bassline?

 

[PuffnScruff]

a remix with mos def and scarface. damn! hope that is true.

 

[kman_69]
