Common is the latest to join the growing number of music artists turned authors with his memoir One Day It’ll All Make Sense, which is named after his third album, slated for release on September 13.
Co-written by Adam Bradley, Common takes the reader into his life from growing up in the South Side of Chicago, to how he wanted to quit rapping when his first album, Can I Borrow A Dollar?, sold only 2,000 copies, to reflecting on his controversial performance at the White House.
The 320-page work is published by Atria Books and has already been described by the likes of renowned civil-rights activist, poet and author Maya Angelou as “a magnificent memoir” and Grammy Award-winning producer Quincy Jones as “a perfect example of his depth as a human being.”
