Common is preparing for a homecoming performance with surprise guests, benefitting his foundation Common Ground, at the House of Blues in Chicago this Friday, September 20.
“I’m super excited about coming home to perform at the House of Blues. I haven’t performed there in a long time.”
The Common Ground Foundation organizes recreational programs for inner-city youth, mainly ages 13-15, exposing them to the creative arts and personal expression, as well as outdoor activities and mentorship.
“I think the most important thing is we are supporting our youth by supporting this event, and in the same token we’re just enjoying ourselves.”
I wish I could be there. I know his concert is going to be AWESOME!!!!
