Unless I'm missing something here, this Chicago MC, who has eight studio records under his belt, has never officially taken part in the mixtape game. While there are likely a plethora of unofficial Common mixtapes out there, it appears that this will be his first. He took to Twitter to announce the news that he had been in the studio all week prepping a mixtape that he said is "gonna be crazy." And it definitely is crazy to see how a well established rapper has decided to record a mixtape when they are usually only done by underground acts or MCs without a deal. But there is the chance that he's using this to get us all ready for his upcoming The Believer LP, which is slated to drop sometime this year.
Wonder what he'll tackle on this one.
Hopefully we don't get any more sexed-up garbage like on his last record.
