Common Explores The Isolation Of The Mind In New Video For “Say Peace”

Today, Common shares a new music video for his “characteristically complex and compelling” (Rolling Stone) single “Say Peace (Feat. Black Thought and PJ)”. The video follows a young Black man in isolation as he reflects, celebrates, and self-flagellates — it’s a clip about searching for what drives you as you meet the world. Opening with a powerful statement of being, the video’s father figure exclaims, “Son. You already have everything you need. You’re blessed. All you have to do is look inside.”
