Our Take
Our Take
COMMON’s latest release, “A Beautiful Revolution”, is a delightful blend of smooth jazz-inspired beats and politically charged lyrics. The album kicks off with the infectious groove of “(A Beautiful Revolution) Intro”, setting the tone for the socially conscious themes to come.
Throughout the record, COMMON tackles issues of racial injustice, police brutality, and the importance of community activism. Tracks like “What Do You Say (Move It Baby)” and “Courageous” display his signature poetic lyricism and powerful delivery, backed by soulful production that harks back to his classic sound.
One of the standout moments on the album is “A Riot in My Mind”, which sees COMMON delving into the turmoil of his own thoughts and emotions, perfectly capturing the turbulent times we are living in. The track features a hypnotic beat and a haunting piano melody that lingers long after the song has ended.
Despite the weighty subject matter, COMMON infuses “A Beautiful Revolution” with hope and optimism, urging listeners to stand up for what they believe in and fight for a better future. It’s a timely and important album that solidifies COMMON’s status as a masterful storyteller and social commentator, making it essential listening for fans of conscious hip-hop.
