Common Says 'Cruel Winter' Is Not Happening

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

Despite what we've been hearing from the internets, it seems that G.O.O.D. Music's Cruel Winter isn't happening. In a recent interview with Vulture, Common confirmed that the Cruel Summer sequel isn't even in the works.

Does G.O.O.D. Music really have a Cruel Winter album coming?

Oh, yeah, nah, nah. I don’t think that’s happening. It was more of a rumor — cats been creating, but everybody’s been doing their solo album. So that’s what that is.

So yeah, even though the good folks at G.O.O.D. Music seem to be hard at work, it doesn't seem like the work is going towards another collective release. Still, we've heard news of a bunch of them hanging in Paris, though probably to work on Kanye's new album. I guess we'll find out.
