Here are some exclusive stills from Common’s new video “I Want You.” Don’t know much about the video except for that fact that Kerry Washington (Common’s rumored girlfriend) directed it. A lot of cameos in this one including Alicia Keys, Serena Williams, Kanye West and probably more.
The video will premiere on 106 & Park on October 23rd and on TRL on October 25th.





















Him and Alicia seems to have chemistry since that movie they did together. But his rumored gf directed it so I doubt there’s more to it than that.
Looks interesting…looking forward to it!
I think that Kerry has my boots on that I got for my birthday. Everyone looks good.
where can I get these boots
Whateva!! I’m still carrying his baby! LOL!
yawn……
hmm…looks a lil spicy to me
Yeezy, Common, AND Alicia Keys? I’m sold!
Damn Allica and common need to go ahead and get together…..I hate that they not together….damn they make a good couple…..what yall think?
A-Keys is gorgy!!!
I love this song……everyone looks nice…doing the grown folks thing!!!!
Geesh, I am still enjoying Driving Me Wild.. He is putting out videos like sun put out light..
Common & Alicia would make a good looking couple.
MAN I LOVE BLACK PEOPLE!!! Everyone looks so great in the pics! Can’t wait to see the video!
Damn..the brothas always got lightskin women all up in their videos.
I thought Common was one of the few rappers who appreciated darkskin women. Guess not. He’s all up in Alicia’s face like all the other colorstruck brothas.
Alicia and common looking HOTTTT!!
i LOVE Common’s music!
A KEYS…. is a good actress cuz she can make it look like she has chemistry with everybody…. Usher in my Boo….Mos Def in u don’t know my Name…..Method Man ..,etc now Common. However not feelin her new music so maybe acting is better for her right now.
Loving Common!!
Still love you Common!
Hey peeps, Okay, I am so glad it’s getting cold I can pull out the flamers (boots). although people have been rocking snow boots in DC already – -bamma azz natives. Anyway, oh yeah, the stills are hot (although not many).
well, this will be interesting…
I thought Kerry was engaged to a white dude? What happened? And “Smoking Aces” was the shiznit…..
Alicia been lookin hawt lately :]
Why couldn’t Serena be the leading lady and sit next to Common? Why is she tucked away to the side?
AKeys is looking hella FIERCE!!! Her and Common would make a cute couple! Common is so gorgeous! Kerry is a cutie too! Ye is my dude!
I can’t wait to see the video because I Want You is one of the tracks that I really like. Someone told me that this song was about his ex Erykah Badu and if you listen to the lyrics make you say hmmmmmm.
I thought I heard Alicia say she didn’t date industry cats cause it was too much drama.
I’m sure its just work. But they do look hot together!
Um Kerry, are you suspicion that Alicia and Common keep popping up in the same pics? Cause i sure as hell am…hmmm.
Why everybody gotta be dating because they work well together, it is not official that Common and Kerry are dating it could be just business.
No one said he was dating Lauren London when she did the Driving me Wild video. Leave Common alone I am sure when he decides to date someone it will not be rumored it will be real because he seems to me like a brotha that ain’t shy when it comes to love.
@ @14… I definately agree with you! And know that I’m not a hater, because I am light-skinned. Where are the brown/dark skinned women???
Kanye is pulling out all da stops to promote his G.O.O.D label artist Common. He making sure that his video is on point cuz he bankin from da album sales
Urm, why don’t y’all wait to see the whole video before making judgements from 3 pictures? Y’all are so quick to draw conclusions.
Evenutally Common and Alicia is going to hook up. Common has alot of her attention. its TOOOO much chemistry…poor Kerri, I know she see it.
looks cool
i LOVE dat song… Glad its a single… Def different from all the garbage dats out now at days…
G.O.O.D. Musiq babyyy…
Whateva I Still Think she gayer then 1000
I love me some A.Keys and Common but I don’t think that there’s anything between them but friendship…and business of course! However, the chemistry between them is undeniable!
damn damn damn alicia keys is the sexy as hell and common is a fuckin fag he can’t handle that
damn damn damn alicia keys is the sexy as hell and common is a fuckin fag he can’t handle that!!!
common is fine as hell, him and alicia look cute together but i don’t think they are dating becuz she has a man and he’s got a women so idk
L Dogg shut up you sound so stupid…They all look nice in these stills.
Uh Come On People Are Yall Stupid …Common Is A FAG And Alicia Is A DYKE So No Of That Dating Shit Is Going Down…If Anyone Is F%#ing Alicia I Bet it’s Kerry Washington Not Common
P
Damn alicia is lookin right and kerry looks sexy to but if i was common i’d be tryin to get at alicia
ok everyone looks nice but i still think alicia is a lesbian but i luv her music and i going to get the album on nov/13/2007
common there is not enough words to describe how fine that man is
Kanye & Kerry Washington look nice
Alicia Keys New Album As I Am Pick It Up On November 13, 2007
like every black woman with some sense i’d love to have common breathing all down my neck like that
#14 Tina Knowles, I think you’re being very presumptuous about what Common does and does not appreciate in the opposite sex. He sure seemed to appreciate the hell out of Erykah Badu (the love of his life) and the last time I checked she wasn’t light-skinned. So because Alicia Keys is in his video, that means he doesn’t appreciate dark-skinned women? That’s a HUGE stretch. You’re entitled to your opinion, I just don’t see how you came to that conclusion. If you recall his video for the wonderful song “Go,” you will know that Common appreciates women of ALL hues.
@ TinaKnowles
What are you talkin’ about? Common has had women of all shades of brown in his videos.
Erykah Badu isn’t light-skinned?!! Now I’ve heard it all! What is she if not light skinned? Anyway I can’t speak for Common but videos in general don’t appreciate the brown skinned sista but we all new this so NEXT!
Back to the topic. The video looks good. Didn’t know Kerry was getting into directing. Should be interesting.
Nah #50, Badu aint light, not to me. No way, no how. We can agree to disagree.
She’s brown-skinned. She’s about the same complexion as her old beau, Andre 3000. Is he light-skinned too? LOL.
@ Tina Knowles, OBVIOUSLY Kerry Washington, who’s not light skinned, is in his video. Serena freaking Williams is in the video TOO. And like people said, if there’s one artist who shows love to sistas of all shades it definitely has to be Common. In his video for “Testify” TARAJI HENSON was the main character. In “The Light”, Erykah was his love interest. In the video for Retrospect For Life, our beauty queen LAURYN HILL was in there. He was in Floetry’s video “Superstar”, one is light the other – the rapper – is not! And let us not forget that for this new video, not only is Kerry IN the video but also he chose her to direct it, meaning that he’s helping sisters getting more well deserved props as producers and directors knowing how hard it is for black women in all kinds of industry. More power to Common.
i love common so i didnt even bother reading ALL of these comments because i saw some bs about light skinned females…that tired ass argument.
common and alicia keys would make a cute couple….he’s sexy and she’s gorgeous
This video looks grown, sexy, and classy! I love the song so I can’t wait to see the video. Alicia and Common have great chemistry! I think he did the right thing by putting her in the vid because everyone was buzzing about them from Smoking Aces, so this kinda continues that buzz. Get’s people talking and interested in the music. Everyone is looking good.
Damn they lookin hot together. Can’t deny that chemistry.
And Tina shut yo low-self esteem ass up and get ova ya’ self. Go read a book or somethin’ cuz you soundin real ignant. Damn cry baby. Waaaa Waaaa
I’m so sick of the light skin, dark skin debate… Some folks really need to learn how to love themselves, and stop worrying about other folks! And perhaps, just pehaps Common asked Alicia to be in his video because they are friends? He was on her Unplugged DVD lat year, and maybe now she’s returning the favor? And they were very good together in Smokin’ Aces…. I cant wait to see this vid.
Common seems to be the type to spread love to all shades of black women. His little girl is dark skinned, so why would he diss dark skinned sistahs?
But I do agree most rappers have light skinned or could-be’s (could be this could be that) in their videos. Hell, I’ve been threw with Kanye ever since he said he likes mutts and there wouldn’t be video girls if it weren’t for mixed chicks. I was ike WTF?
But I love me some Common and ya can’t get me to say two bad words about him. I swear don’t let me run into that man, all I can say is it would all go down!!!!!!!
Alicia Keys and Common would make a cute couple!..and nice babies lol
hum, seems like a cute video!
I didn’t know Kerry’s a director, cool! (i love her boots)
