From Q-Tip‘s hints to Pusha T‘s clarification, Common tells Vulture that G.O.O.D. Music’s Cruel Winter compilation is probably not going to happen.

Does G.O.O.D. Music really have a Cruel Winter album coming?
Oh, yeah, nah, nah. I don’t think that’s happening. It was more of a rumor — cats been creating, but everybody’s been doing their solo album. So that’s what that is.

As far as his next album goes:

What can people expect?
New beginnings, new energy. You can expect to hear me rapping on music that you never heard me rapping on before. It’s gonna be fresh. It’s gonna be original.

Who’s working on that?
I’m definitely looking at some of the producers like Travi$ Scott, No I.D., 88-Keys, Hit-Boy. This has been the first time I’m open to working and not having just one, two producers and that’s it.

    I think the RAP blogs started the Cruel Winter rumor and rapper’s within GOOD music ran with it. Think about Cruel Summer reads: Kanye West presents….. So, unless Kanye talked of a Cruel Winter this should have never caught steam.

    But, then you’d be asking RAP practice REAL journalism rule 101: check your source. Go figure.

    Common ain’t that dude you bumping in the car with ya boys anymore but he still got bars. Deff checking for this new album

  8. Dashing says:

    Common and Hit Boy could be a dope combo. I’m more excited about this than Dreamer/Believer cause he’s stepping out of his comfort zone a bit and not just doing the old school/soulful sound that he’s known for. I’d love to hear a couple of Dilla beats on there too though…

  9. ZoomZoomDad-Otis says:

    Common is a hip hop legend Dude always making great music.

    Looking forward to the Co double Mo- N’s next release.

    I loved The Dreamer/ The Believer
