Common has earned a reputation in the hip-hop world as a conscious
artist by embracing themes of love and struggle in his songs. His
journey toward understanding is rooted in his relationship with a
remarkable woman, his mother.
Common holds nothing back in this gripping memoir, both provocative
and funny. He tells what it was like for a boy with big dreams
growing up on the South Side of Chicago. He reveals how he almost
quit rapping after his first album sold only two thousand copies.
He recounts his rise to stardom and talks about the challenges of
balancing fame, love, and family. Through it all, Common emerges as
a man in full. Rapper. Actor. Activist. But also father, son, and
friend. His story offers a living example of how, no matter what
you've gone through, one day it'll all make sense.
