A love for Chicago has helped to unite Common and Jennifer Hudson. During a recent appearance on "The Breakfast Club,” the veteran emcee was asked how he has been able to connect with his hometown, despite no longer residing there full time.
“I’m going to be real real with you, like, having a lady just from Chicago allows me to go home and just be home. And I hadn’t did that in a while where I was just going home and just being around my loved ones and didn’t have no work to do.”
“I ain’t going to front, that helped me with this album because just going to your roots, you got to always recharge and replug, and plug into them roots no matter how much you’ve elevated you still got to go to them roots.”
