[Music Video] Elijah Blake ft. Common - "X.O.X."


Elijah Blake closed out 2012 with a spectacular EP in Bijoux 22. While I'm fondest of standouts like "Talk To Me" and "Vicky Secrets," I can understand why the Common featured "X.O.X." is turning into an international sensation. Check out the visuals to the No I.D. production below, and try to refrain from hitting your ex with sappy texts... Keep it G!

Common ft. Cocaine 80s - "Congratulations"


In typical Cocaine 80's fashion, No I.D. casually sent out "Congratulations," a new collaboration with Common.

On "Congratulations" Common tells the story of his best friend getting married in June to someone who might not be the right one for him. Did she smash the homie? Listen to find out.

Big Sean ft. Common - "Switch Up"


"Guap" was a nice single to test the waters, but now Big Sean is ready to promote his sophomore album Hall Of Fame in full force. Joining him on the project's second single is his G.O.O.D. Music brother Common, who raps over something different on "Switch Up."

Stream the joint production between Million $ Mano, No I.D. and Rob Kinelski and head to iTunes at midnight if you want to download "Switch Up."

Cocaine 80's ft. Jhene Aiko & Common - "Fly Ass Pisces"


Cocaine 80s is always lowkey with their releases, so I'm excited I caught this track on Twitter. Now that Jhené Aiko is down with the Artium clique, she, No I.D., James Fauntleroy and co. have been making beautiful music together. Add extended family Common to the equation and you get  "Fly Ass Pisces." Keep this one on repeat until Cocaine 80s drops its fourth project, Flower Of Life EP.

The G.O.O.D. Music album has already become one of 2012's most highly anticipated projects. What has been more interesting is the fact that other artists, not part of the team's official roster, are lending a hand.  Recently, Mannie Fresh was seen in London with Big Sean and Pusha T working on the album, as well as Marsha Ambrosius.  Now recent pictures show Omarion also contributing to the effort. Look below to see Common, Big Sean, CyHi The PrynceTeyana Taylor, Hit Boy and Omarion working on the G.O.O.D. Music compilation!

Common Performs "Celebrate" Live With James Fauntleroy The Roots [VIDEO]


This is the Common I love to see. While I find his Drake beef highly entertaining and hilarious, I just like to see the Chi Town having fun and focusing on his music. Watch below as he links up with Cocaine 80s partner James Fauntleroy (my absolute favorite) and The Roots crew for a performance to The Dreamer/The Believer single "Celebrate!"  Nothing like a live band...
