Last night, the OG Common brought along the young crooner BJ The Chicago Kid to The Tonight Show for a performance of their collaboration “Black America Again.”

A week from today (November 4), Common will deliver his new album of the same title. Clearly Common’s out to send an important message and the timing of which couldn’t be any better. The soulful and powerful title track is a great representation of what the album will be about and after last night’s performance, it’s clear Common Sense has a winner on his hands.

Watch their “Black America Again” performance below and pre-order the new album on iTunes.
