Considering the subject matter surrounding Common‘s latest tracks, you can expect a lot of his new effort to touch on real topics we’re all affected by. “Letter To the Free” follows the same trajectory from past releases, using a bit of the gospel sound on the hook for the record. He’s just asking the Lord for freedom to come, as we use these tough moments to get closer to him.
Black America Again is due out on November 4.
