Common and Pete Rock share the official music video for “Dreamin’.” The two veteran musicians journey through the city in the clip, directed by award-winning filmmaker Raven Jackson and produced by Kristian King, Pulse Films, and There We Go Films in New York City.
Additionally, footage sourced from a collection of Common’s home videos and used in the visual gives fans a glimpse into special moments of his life.
“Dreamin'” comes from the duo’s collaborative The Auditorium Vol. 1 album, released last month. The project features Bilal, Jennifer Hudson, Posdnuos, and PJ across 15 tracks.
“It’s a blessing that we connected at this point in our lives and if God’s willing, we will continue to just create,” Common detailed of the album to Forbes. “It could be in different facets, like of course more volumes of the Auditorium. But there’s so much potential with Pete and I. I do believe that this is the beginning of us creating more and more.”
Rock added, “I think that over the years of being in this music business a lot of magic happens. That comes from really loving what you do. But when you’re around that all the time, it just inspires you to shine in that way. And so it’s natural for us.”
Together, Pete Rock and Common are set for The Auditorium Tour kicking off Wednesday (Aug. 28) in Del Mar, Calif. Additional stops on the trek include Los Angeles, Nashville, Atlanta, Philadelphia, and more before wrapping in New York City for a three-night residency at the Blue Note Jazz Club.

NBA YoungBoy has been releasing a large amount of music this year, whether he is rebuilding his post-prison career or shutting down rap beef. His new YouTube diss track and music video, Zero IQ Freestyle, clearly falls into the latter category. Several lines either directly brush off NLE Choppa for his disses or subtly dismiss him as a fake hater. Backed by a loud, hard-hitting beat and his animated vocal delivery, the song feels extremely high-energy.
The lyrics are sharp and cutting, whether they are aimed at someone specific or not, and the track functions as a broad clap-back toward his many haters and personal frustrations. Even if YB chooses not to fully answer NLE The Great any time soon, he definitely made his bold and confrontational point with Zero IQ Freestyle.
Release Date: November 15, 2025
Genre: Hip-Hop
Album: N/A
