A Beautiful Revolution Pt. 1, dieser Aufruf zum Handeln von Common – dem Grammy-, Emmy- und Oscar-gekrönten Künstler, Aktivisten, Schauspieler und zweifachen Bestsellerautor der New York Times – enthält sieben neue Songs und zwei Interludes.

Zur Band des Albums gehören Robert Glasper (Keyboards), Karriem Riggins (Schlagzeug), Burniss Travis (Bass), Isaiah Sharkey (Gitarre) und PJ (Gesang), sowie die Gäste Black Thought (The Roots) und Lenny Kravitz.

“Beautiful Revolution Pt. 1 is affirmation. It’s recognition. It’s elevation. It’s music to go with a movement. Because the truth is, there is still so much work to do. Regardless of the outcome of the election, we need to make sure things do not return to the status quo. The intention of the music is to channel all of our pain and outrage into something productive, inspirational, and good. It’s to help lead a movement into our next phase of the work to be done.”
