Today Grammy winning hip-hop artist and actor Common debuted his new website www.thinkcommon.com as part of the launch of his eighth album Universal Mind Control, which is set for release on December 9th, 2008. Designed and developed by Fishbucket, the site will serve as the main hub for any fan who wants to keep up-to-date on Common’s life, music, films, and beyond.
Common is looking forward to his latest endeavor stating, “I am very enthused and excited about the launch of thinkcommon.com. I feel that I’m entering into a new world that I have yet to discover and am looking forward to interacting with the people through my website. I want to thank all those who have supported this project and helped put it all together. It’s a new day… Common is on the Internet!”
www.thinkcommon.com will have a wide array of destinations including tour dates, videos, press clips, and a shopping link which will forward visitors to Common’s Zune page where they can purchase his music. The site will also feature "Common on Common" where he’ll tell his own story in small chapters that will be released periodically. Visitors to the site can also check out Common’s Chicken Shack which features a complete discography, including his demo which you can listen to snippets of.
The highlight of the site will be a Blog section where Common will be able to interact directly with his fans. It will feature behind-the-scenes photos & videos from his tour, up-to-date news & announcements, as well as appearances.
