Common, nome artístico de Lonnie Rashid Lynn, Jr., (Chicago, 13 de março de 1972), é um rapper e ator americano celebre no mundo do rap por suas letras, focadas mais sobre amor e a espiritualidade do que ao dinheiro, a fama e as mulheres. Muita gente pode descreve-lo como um artista de hip hop "verdadeiro", autor de autênticas canções que na verdade enviam mensagens. Seu álbum de estreia por uma grande gravadora, Like Water for Chocolate foi criticamente aclamado e teve êxito comercial, mesmo que seu último álbum Be, em que Kanye West produziu nove faixas, vendeu 800 mil cópias e foi indicado a um Grammy como "melhor álbum de rap".
