Complex was able to get an early listen of the upcoming No I.D. produced Common album The Dreamer, The Believer hitting stores in December. The song titles which have been made public are ‘Raw’, ‘Ghetto Dreams’, ‘Blue Sky’, ‘Sweet’, ‘Lover Not Lost’, ‘Gold’, ‘Cloth’, ‘The Dreamer’ and ‘The Believer’.
The next single ‘Sweet’ will sound like this:
Produced by: No I.D.
Complex says: Don’t let the title deceive you—there’s nothing sugary about this track. As Common said just before pressing play, “This one might make you wanna fight.” During a recent visit to Haiti, Common shot a video for the song, which may go down as the most aggressive record he’s ever made. Lord knows what inspired these lyrics of fury, but when Common played “Sweet” for an old friend in Chicago, his friend said, “I been waiting 20 years to hear you do some shit like that.”
