The Dreamer, The Believer is produced solely by No I.D. and has features from NaS, John Legend & Maya Angelou. Contender for album of the year without even hearing it - tracklist after the jump.

Common - Elec-SICK Circus

Back in 2008, prior to the release of Universal Mind Control, DJ sourMILK and Just-N-Credible hooked up with Common to put together this mixtape, which pays tribute to the Chicago-born rappers incredible career thus far. UMC was a hugely underwhelming album and this mixtape was criminally overlooked, so with the release of his new album 'The Believer' just around the corner, I thought it would be the perfect time to bring this back and remember why he is one of the greatest MCs to ever live. Listen/download below.

Common - Sweet

Sweet is the title, but Common is anything but sweet on the latest single from his forthcoming album, The Believer. My favourite rapper of all-time goes in over another No I.D. produced banger and continues to build the hype for this highly anticipated release. Legend.

Kano - Blue Sky (Blood My In Is Music)

To hold his fans over until the final part of Kano's incredible 'Not 4 The A List' series drops, SoulCulture present us with his very dope freestyle over Common's latest single, Blue Sky, which is produced by the lengendary No I.D. You can catch up on the Not 4 The A List series HERE and download this freestyle HERE. Lyrical monster.

Common - Blue Sky

Produced by No I.D., here is a radio rip of the second single from Common's forthcoming album, The Believer. Very cool sample, amazing concept and lyrically flawless. This should be a pretty special album, from one of the greatest rappers to ever live.

Rock The Bells Highlights - Mobb Deep x Raekwon & Ghostface x NaS x Common

Prodigy & Havoc performing one of the greatest Hip-Hop songs of all-time this weekend just gone at the legendary Rock The Bells festival. One of the best line-ups of all-time - seeing The Infamous performed back to back would make me one happy young man. You can also check a few more of my favourite performances below.

NaS - Halftime

Common - Ghetto Dreams (Feat. NaS)

Full and mastered version of Common's first single off his upcoming album, The Believer, which is set to be released on his new label Warner Bros. in November. Classic Hip-Hop, from two of the greatest rappers of all-time. No more words, just listen.

Common - Ghetto Dreams (Feat. NaS)

OH MY WORD! Snippet of the No I.D. produced lead single from Common's upcoming album, The Believer. No words.

Follow Me

Last week we heard an old tagged Common track which was believed to be produced by Karriem Riggins, but now we have the untagged version and now know that is actually produced by Mr. KanYe West. Not sure when it’s from, but I’m guessing it’s a Finding Forever cut. The Believer is on its way!!

Morning Love

New single from one of my favourite male vocalists, Vikter Duplaix, and the greatest rapper of all-time, Common Sense. This is an absolute dream of a tune. Need to find myself a lady to share stuff like this with though.
